Apple fans are usually very loyal to the brand. We see how many Android users make the leap to iPhone, but the opposite seems to happen less often. However, although Apple has a solid foundation for its iPhone, the race of competition between different Android manufacturers is at a different pace . This means that in this technological battle, there are advances that have not yet been integrated into the iPhone and that are seen with some suspicion even by the most staunch to the mobile of those from Cupertino.
When Android users want to breastfeed, they restrict that devices with Google’s operating system integrate technologies that Apple takes longer to implement. It can be said that Apple is not in a hurry and only accepts certain advances, when it believes that they are mature enough or really necessary to put in the hands of its users.

What we want to see on the iPhone 12
The next iPhone 12 does not yet have an official presentation date, but it is believed that Apple could unveil up to four models this year. The terminal is doing quite well when it comes to leaks, so hopefully there will be room for surprise. There are many features and advances that are rumored to come with the iPhone 12 , but we have compiled some present in Android, of which Apple should take note and that we would like to see in its new terminal.
Improved zoom
The most direct competition from Apple such as Samsung and Huawei, have put the batteries in the section of telephoto sensors . The Galaxy S20 Ultra was launched earlier this year with a 3X optical zoom and a 100X spatial zoom. The latest Note 20 Ultra features 3X optical and 50X digital zoom. The iPhone 11 Pro has a 2X optical zoom, which although it is enough to perform some tasks of distant shots, is far from the capabilities of its competition.
In this sense, Apple could choose to launch superior hardware with a native 3X or 4X optical zoom, or integrate an AI learning system similar to what Google integrated in the Pixel 4, whose software improves the results of this type of shots using a machine learning system. In any case, Apple should not be left behind in this battle.
Better fast charging
Fast charging on Android has improved by leaps and bounds in the last two years. It is rare for the mid-range device that does not integrate a load of 18W or 30W, while the most powerful Android phones in this field already boast a load of 65W or even 125W . Apple has so far integrated a maximum fast charge of 18W, capable of charging the device to 50% in half an hour. The most advanced fast charge on Android allows a 4,000 mAh battery to be charged to 41% in 5 minutes and fully charged in 20 minutes.
Gorilla Glass Victus
We have seen how the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra has released the latest Corning glass, called Gorilla Glass Victus. Its resistance has been tested in various resistance tests, being above the iPhone 11 Pro. Although Apple never reveals the version of Gorilla Glass integrated into its devices, it is to be expected that it can at least match this protection.
A higher refresh rate
Many of the high-end and mid-range Android mobiles have a high screen refresh rate. 90Hz is almost a standard in the mid-range while 120Hz is still almost exclusively reserved for the most advanced devices. Apple already knows what it is like to integrate a 90Hz rate , seen in the iPad Pro, so it would not be surprising that iPhone 12 users experience a feeling of fluidity that was unprecedented until now, and that users have enjoyed for a long time. Android.
Say goodbye to the notch
The notch is a kind of transit until manufacturers have found solutions that allow an all-screen design. Either hiding the camera as a pop-up sensor or with the new hidden cameras under the screen, Android devices can offer this experience, while iPhones have the classic notch. We do not believe that Apple is going to eliminate it completely in the iPhone 12, although everything indicates that it will reduce its size considerably.

An iPhone with “Stylus”
It may be the wildest request. Android mobiles that have this option are counted on the fingers of one hand, having the Galaxy Note as standard bearers and devices like the Moto G Pro as alternative options. This year the larger version is expected to reach a generous 6.7 inches , so many users would surely welcome compatibility with an Apple Pencil.
