If you are reading this article on a mobile device, there is a 73 percent chance you’re using an iPhone.

We know this because a whopping 73% of the mobile traffic the Bird Feed receives comes via Apple devices; however, just because Apple enthusiasts are the majority, it doesn’t mean they’ve made the objectively superior decision. The focus of technology at South Forsyth High School is very diverse amongst different grade levels. With certain individuals standing strong for Apple, others continue to advocate for their favorite Samsung devices. 

Both operating systems have the pros and cons. Samsung has equipped their latest phones with OLED screens, which provide the highest definition of texture and color, as well as a six mega-pixel camera, which imbues pictures with a remarkably high definition of clarity. Despite these advantages, the peer pressure to get an iPhone has brought South Forsyth students and their families to choose an Apple device over Samsung. 

South students debated their opinions of Apple versus Samsung and the merits of each based on how the technology has evolved and how it effects students on a day-to-day basis.

Based on the interviews above, we know that many students prefer to use an iPhone over a Samsung phone due to how elegant, swift and easy-to-use the interface is, as well as their big advancements in camera quality, screen quality, and over all day-to-day ease of use and reliability. South students continue to take the technology they are provided and incorporate it into learning towards a better future.
