Yes, I’m the one in the group DM that turns the bubbles green, I’m sorry.

But other than that, I don’t hear many other reasons why people actually prefer iPhones over Androids. What other reasons are there?

    OS updates. It’s frustrating to buy a top of the line android phone just for it to be forgotten by the manufacturer in 6-8 months.

      This right here. Lifelong Android user that switched to the iPhone 14 and never looked back.

      Edit: iPhone 13, not 14, my bad.

        My problem with Apple is that everything’s designed to interoperate with other Apple stuff, and nothing else. It feels like a walled garden that doesn’t just keep users in, but also keeps those of us out who might want to try a single Apple device without spending many thousands replacing our entire ecosystem.

          Not necessarily.

          You can get one and try it out, the ecosystem stuff is more enhancement than a detriment if you don’t have them.

          Like Apple Watch and my MacBook Air, I can authenticate or unlock the screen using my Apple Watch rather than a password. But that’s just a benefit and I wouldn’t be losing anything but the enhancement if I didn’t have both.

            Which gets even stupider when you realize apple is being stubborn and that is causing the issue
