You can't have an opinion until you have used both.

I used both and I still chose Android... But Android is not as smooth as iOS is, even when messing around with animation speeds.

I see people are still tying their identity to a choice of company over another… that’s sad

People buy iPhone because they're consistent, polished, and just work. I love my Pixel, but glitches pop up more often than they should for a $1k phone. I don't think I'd ever return to Apple, but sometimes the temptation shows up when they get a feature (admittedly late) but the implementation and function just plain works.

Also security is better on Apple.

Hahahaha

Sticking one's head in the sand and pretending security is a non-issue is not actually more secure

Huh?

Unfortunately for Android users, Google researchers discovered known vulnerabilities, or n-days, that essentially equated to zero-days for Android due to a lack of timely patching issues. The vendor observed that attackers didn't need zero-day exploits to attack the Android ecosystem because in many cases, patches weren't available for known flaws, which were then exploited on unpatched devices.

If you can't admit security is better through IOS then you're the one sticking your head in the sand, tbh

Security on Android, as an OS, is arguably better. However in practice it's very manufacturer-dependent. If they didn't butcher the OS, and actually rolled updates without carriers getting in the way, it wouldn't be a contest at all.

" If they didn’t butcher the OS, and actually rolled updates without carriers getting in the way, it wouldn’t be a contest at all." but they did though.

Reason on the right should 100% be because of iMessage. If it wasn’t for literally everyone in my family being mad at me “breaking” the family texts I’d still have an Android. All too often they’d just text without me which got very sad. Apple has done a great job locking people in with iMessage.

Sorry to hear that man. But if your family excludes you because you don't have an iPhone/iMessage, maybe you need a new family, not a new phone.
