If you want an iPhone get an iPhone, if you want an android, then get an android. It’s a simple as that. And it’s not a competition it’s just personal preference.

Incidentally, despite being fined, Apple is still doing this.

I'm not cool enough for Apple products.

I am an Apple Cult member and I agree with you 100%, I am angry about it but I am addicted.

Okay but my Android got so hot when I was using it that it burned me. My iPhone has never done that.

Here's a startling, almost unbelievable fact: No one cares that you are using an Android. Same as no one cares that I use an iPhone. There's no conflict here.

I've had both and I much prefer the andriod. Apple has it's on head shoved far up its...

My job issued me an iPhone. My personal phone is an Android. Retiring next summer - no more iPhone. Easier to use, lasts longer. Had a Samsung for several years, battery was starting to drain faster. Got a free new phone from my carrier, should be set for years

I have dropped my android from a 3rd story building.kicked it thrown it and many other things still working just fine.Meanwhile my apple phone I dropped it lightly once on top of my bed and the screen cracked I loath apple

"but apple still supports my iPhone 8!!!! What other company does that?!?!?" Apple users being delusional as always

Steve Jobs and the Apple con machine. Ohhh look at this shiny new phone! This is the iPhone 1, get used to it because the only thing we will meaningfully change is the price. What they did right was pander to sheep and take advantage of herd mentality while using other products to lock them into having to stay with Apple. Cue to years of advertising their "MASSIVE" upgrades that represent mainly fluff with a catchy commercial, or more likely a feature Android has had for years. What a joke

Ive had both I stick with Android because its simply cheaper for the exact same thing.

Actually android pulls this trick too depending on the build (and manufacturer). It's the double edged nature of it being open source, still amazed google left it open source. Tbh, I would never buy an apple product. I like to tinker with my tech and apple doesn't really allow that. This is why linux is king. Android being based on linux has this feature too, if you know what your doing. A rooted android will let you do anything, even if it isn't a good idea. Apple is for people who just want it to work, nerds who like to tinker will likely use android. It's the same argument Jobs and Wozniak once had. In a way they where both right.

Lets be honest, unless you're buying an Apple product to use their editing software its just a fashion statement.

I have had a Samsung Note 5 phone (?) and an iPhone 4 through the 12 Pro. I will say that I like both phones for different reasons. I liked the graphics that Samsung had and the way it operated plus at the time mine came with a pen and I never had a problem with it. It did heat up a lot so when I needed a new phone, I switched to Apple and I stayed. I really like Apple, but… It does very annoying to have to upgrade to a new one because it “updates” and stops working all of a sudden, or some such nonsense. I had my iPhone 7 die right after my two year contract. Gee, what a coincidence. I still love many of the features, but they definitely need to fix the fact that it can break down. I keep iCare on many of my devices and the ones I can’t, I carry insurance.

Have been Android for all the time I have had smartphones (2010 onward). Had an iPhone 8 when I was a people manager some years back and that was the only phone my employer would give me. It was OK, but there were definitely a lot of things that I found excruciatingly annoying about it. The problem with buying into the Apple ecosystem is that you have to follow their vision 100%. Yeah, that's a big no from me.

iPhone has nothing on the Galaxy.

"Sheep"? It's called "Capitalism". People buy what they want. At least we have the right to be how we are with our money. A Judge I had clients before once said (whilst denying our application for Power of Attorney for their dad who was sending (still is) hundreds of thousands US dollars to "Nigerian Princesses"): It's not purely against the law to be stupid".

I've had Apple since the iPhone came out. I've never experienced the issues you are describing. I keep each phone for three-plus years, and only upgrade when I break my screen.

Apple owner here...I upvote you

Two words: ROOT ACCESS

My Apple freak daughter and son-in-law are all about status, if it looks cool, it's the latest model and it's expensive, they gotta have it!..........I don't know these people anymore and both came from modest backgrounds.

Because of the edit, I'm voting this up.

Apple is not the problem. Tim Cook is the problem. He's destroyed literally everything Apple represented: minimalism, lean programming, user customization, form following function.
