Android ist ein von Google entwickeltes Betriebssystem, das derzeit von den meisten Handy-Herstellern verwendet wird. Es handelt sich um ein offenes Betriebssystem mit nahezu unbegrenzten Anpassungsmöglichkeiten. Einige Anpassungen können über die Grundeinstellungen vorgenommen werden, während andere jederzeit aus dem Google Play Store heruntergeladen werden können. Der Benutzer kann also nicht nur die grafische Benutzeroberfläche, sondern auch die Bedienung des Handys sehr einfach ändern. Die Schwäche von Android ist dann die höhere Anfälligkeit für Angriffe durch Schadsoftware. Eine ausführlichere Beschreibung der einzelnen Betriebssysteme sowie ihrer Vor- und Nachteile finden Sie in unserem Artikel Vergleich der mobilen Betriebssysteme.
