Heh heh ... I love how you prove my point.

If Android Pay is a "copy" of Apple Pay, then the "Functionality" is there,
by your own admission.

All functionality has pros/cons to compare, but the functionality is there.

*It's a fact that there is no functionality on iOS that isn't on Android.*

It's another fact that there is plenty of functionality on Android devices
that iOS can't hope to have, including file system access & redirects,
installing modern launchers, downloading torrents, automatic call recording,
arranging & naming desktop icons, saving APKs easily for backup to SD cards,
bluetooth file transfer even outside the walled garden when no Internet or
WiFI is available, waterproofness, inductive charging, automatic answering
of calls, etc.
