January 10, 2025 5.0 Overall I'd say android 11 has giving me a sense of satisfaction, knowing my phone is capable of keeping up with my fast paced entrepreneurial lifestyle. Keep the versions coming Android. Pros Android 11 Tops them all. The powerhouse of all mobile operating systems. I've been a full fledged believer in android since my first use. Cons The only thing about android 11 I'd consider a con is ; the hidden game in the software version. I just don't get the point of it. Switched from [iOS14](https://www.capterra.com/p/228981/iOS14/) Androids functionality and usability Tops apple any day of the week. Review Source CW Ceon W. Field analyst Research Used the software for: 2+ years ### "The best mobile software." July 2, 2022 5.0 The software is smooth in operation and many issues that were present in older versions of android such as device freezing are basically non-existent. Pros The software offers high-end products and performance on many products that are affordable and catered to everyone's spending range. Cons The updates for many of the apps that are part of the manufacturers' package seem to use a lot of hard drive space for doing the same function they were doing before the update with not many notable or significant differences or updates catered for the users' direct benefit. Switched from [iOS14](https://www.capterra.com/p/228981/iOS14/) Android has deeper integration with most of the other devices that are being produced globally and cross-electronic communication is simpler and more reliable.

Some of the new features like better notifications and permission controls were cool, but overall the software felt kinda clunky and not as smooth as I expected. It worked, but it didn’t really blow me away. Pros While I wasn’t a big fan of the software overall, I did appreciate the improved control over app permissions and the way notifications were grouped more clearly. Even if the rest of the update didn’t feel like a major improvement, those features at least made daily use a little easier. Cons The software often felt unfinished and a bit clunky. Some features seemed like changes for the sake of change rather than true improvements. Certain updates caused compatibility issues, and overall performance didn’t always feel stable, which made it more frustrating than helpful at times. Switched from [iOS14](https://www.capterra.com/p/228981/iOS14/)[Apple Pay](https://www.capterra.com/p/212840/Apple-Pay/)[iCloud](https://www.capterra.com/p/204717/iCloud/)[Windows 11](https://www.capterra.com/p/251507/Windows-11/) At the moment I just felt the need for the change Review Source MA Mohammad A.

Alternatives considered [Ubuntu](https://www.capterra.com/p/229058/Ubuntu/) Reason for choosing Android 11 It is more flexible, Price is much more acceptable, more updates. Customer service is way better than Ubuntu. Switched from [iOS14](https://www.capterra.com/p/228981/iOS14/) Windows because old fashion and all phones are moving to accommodate Android. Apple systems are expensive and not affordable for many users. Review Source Evelyn F.
