There is a stereotype that “iPhone is for the rich and Android is for the poor”. But not always, the powerful of this world follow this rule. For example, Pavel Durov, the founder of Telegram, has repeatedly talked about the iPhone in a negative way, preferring devices with the Android operating system, and Bill Gates, who is one of the three richest people on the planet, also seems to be an Android guy.
True, there was a time when the former head of Microsoft owned two devices – an iPhone and an Android smartphone. But most often he preferred a device with a green robot; recognizes that it has an undeniable advantage over the iPhone – a large number of common and third-party applications. At the same time, he admitted that for a long time he only used an Apple smartphone, and migrating to Android was not easy for him in the beginning.
Bill Gates: One of the richest people on the planet has opted for a foldable smartphone
And recently it became known which smartphone Bill Gates preferred for everyday use. On one of the forums, he was asked what kind of smartphone he uses, to which he replied that he has a Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3. The choice in favor of a foldable smartphone was made because it replaces his phone and laptop . Samsung should be proud that Bill Gates preferred his device and not Microsoft’s Surface Duo 2.
Contrary to what one might have thought; Bill Gates recently does not seem to have a clear opinion about Elon Musk’s takeover of Twitter. Asked about the topic, he actually replied that it could be worse as it could be better. He also said he did not blame his opponent for tackling him on the platform.
This is definitely the biggest news of recent days: Elon Musk has bought Twitter. Inevitably, the billionaire’s controversial reputation has led to reactions that are, to say the least, passionate: on the one hand, his loyal supporters defend his vision, on the other, his opponents fear the trivialization of hate speech.
And Bill Gates in all this? The billionaire who has gradually retired from the tech world in recent years; still have strong opinions on the subject. We particularly remember his shock position against Bitcoin in 2021; when he said loud and clear that digital currency is a disaster for the climate.
