Android does RCS and only falls back to SMS or MMS because that's all Apple will let iMessage use. RCS is an open standard that supports end to end encryption, full video and image sharing, and everything else iMessage does. Android can even translate iMessage message tagging and display them properly, but apple purposefully makes the experience worse if messaging non apple devices.
