Hi everyone.
There's a new Android malware called Gunpoder, which seems a Nintendo emulator, in the true it is a dangerous malware, which can infect all Android mobile devices (smartphones, tablets, etc.).
The biggest problem is this: it aims to steal sensitive data and using the Airpush library, so it is identified simply as an Adware and is not blocked by most antivirus.

Thats why i most likely head to Apple or Microsoft.

Do you know that Samsung is having problems to sell their phones in China? Everyone is going to Apple :)

Yes, as Apple is more expensive, it is more secure than Android.
 
Its not that its expensive, an S6 is almost the same price as a IPhone nowadays.

Maybe ill move fully to Apple devices, except a MacBook, i still have this new laptop.

But i really need a new phone, maybe an iPad and a good ac, maybe even a Mac Pro, depending on the money.

And you can still run Windows on a Mac :)

And i also keep having issues with Windows all day long, another reason to move somewhere else.

And Apple devices work really good together as well, Windows 10 will work together better too.
But a Mac has automated Backups like up to a Time capsule all the timeWireless when youre in range, so i dont have to run after backups all the time like on Windows.

Maybe ill start working on a game so automatic backups would be handy as well.

And: Who is ever backing up their phone anyway? Or whos updating their Android version? Its just too complicated.

And i could take aMac Pro almost anywhere, try that with a big fat selfbuild PC with water cooling :)

And a Mac Pro is also really silent as well, as silent as a Mac Mini :D
