Get ready for this.... Spider-Man is under the umbrella of Sony... Sony uses Android... Spider-Man uses Android. It’s not complicated. If Apple held the IP he’d use an iPhone. Considering that Apple is very brand conscious you are far less likely to see intentional Apple product placement in most media, and since it’s closed source you won’t see apples UI as often in real life or media because you have to pay to use it and spec their hardware for it to be outside a legal gray zone. So it’s not what is better or what a character is more likely to use, it comes down to money. Apple holds a press conference and people line up for days to get whatever they’re selling even if it is just basically the same thing they were selling last week. Android doesn’t have to do much to advertise because it’s ubiquitous, if it’s not Apple it’s probably android because android is basically freeware. Android device carriers have to advertise because they aren’t Apple, and don’t have the launch clout.
