Perhaps the biggest advantage to owning an Android device is that it’s impossible to get lost. At an instant you can pull up an entire map of the world, manipulate it with your fingers, see yourself pinpointed and get directions to any destination. Pulling up to the side of the road to ask a stranger directions is now a thing of the past. As is carrying (and folding) a paper map. Of course, there’s a wealth of further benefits to owning a smartphone. Thanks to the plethora of apps in the Play Store, you can see live flight details for any commercial plane in the world, see your seat on a plane map, view departures and arrivals for any airport, navigate the world’s streets in first-person and then see the entire surface of the planet in 3D. There’s a mind-boggling array – all accessed through the device in your pocket.
