Ah, you meant phone of the time. I thought you meant phones throughout time. Like, today's Pixel 9 compared to the N95. That sort of thing.

Yeah, you're right. Back then, it was all marketing and storefront locks. That's it.

And the flagship iphone of today is lower specs than its direct android competitor. But, then again, that's how apple seems to operate: lowest possible specs, highest possible marketing, beautiful (debatable, I know) UI... and locked storefront.

Yeah im not an apple fan. (My brother would have a heart attack if I didnt say that. He loves them).

But the fact they controll both hardware and software means they can run on lower specs. They dont use it as well as they could. But android having to allow others to develop hardware. Provides a bit more ability for manufactures to implement less efficient drivers. This is why some higher spec low value stuff seems so slow compared to equal speced cheaper Samsung stuff etc.
