A recent survey of our readers confirms many of our readers were unaware of the common traits between Pixels and iPhones.
We often engage in scathing arguments, defending our favorite brands’ promises to deliver better hardware than the rest. Android vs. iOS is a theme that shrouds our conversations, both online and in person, even though visual coherence between iOS and Android skins keeps increasing. However, what if we told you phones made by Apple and Google had more in common than we already know?
Despite the fierce rivalry between Google and Apple, both tech giants use the same manufacturer to produce Pixel devices and iPhones. It’s widely known that Apple does not manufacture its own products and relies on a Chinese-origin Electronics Manufacturing Services (EMS) company, Foxconn, to handle the bulk of iPhone production. In addition, it also contributes to manufacturing a part of the supply of the iPad, MacBook, AirPods, and even the Apple Watch.
However, most people are unaware that a large share of Google’s Pixel phones and devices, including the Pixel Watch, are also produced by Foxconn across different facilities.Most of you didn’t know iPhone’s manufacturer also makes Pixel devices
It’s surprising, for sure, and one of our recent surveys also confirms that it’s known to few people.
