Only 10 per cent of the world’s 1.4 billion Android phones are encrypted, compared with 95 per cent of Apple’s iPhones.
In that stats major number are Nexus smartphones.
After releasing Android 5 on Nexus 6 Google got a drop of read speed that was caused by the full-disk encryption which was one of the exclusive features of Android 5 for Nexus 6.
Google have tried to solve this problem through various minor and major updates but still the read speed is 3 times slower than the speed of non-encrypted devices. It’s nothing to be proud of when comparing with 2013’s iPhone 5S who’s encryption does not appear to have any significant performance impact.

We are closely following the case of the Apple vs US gov battle. So what do we know so far?
The government states that the iPhone 5C is protected with a numeric password, so it can be cracked via brute force attack in about several days, but Apple doesn’t want to break into iPhone physically. Alternatively, the company suggested that the FBI leaves the device in the proximity of a known Wi-Fi network. It would make the iPhone produce a cloud backup into iCloud. Unfortunately, there was one final assumption that was not met: the user’s Apple ID password is not changed or reset. However, changing the Apple ID password prevented the iPhone from producing a cloud backup. With no possibility of making a cloud backup, the FBI goes back to Apple, asking the company to comply with the court order.

Of course you know about the Apple vs FBI fight. We've stated our opinion on this subject in our blog - you are welcome to read it, comment and discuss. Interestingly, but in fact what FBI is asking is technically feasible. If Apple agrees to break into this one iPhone, what goes next? http://qoo.by/gpH
