I used to have this opinion but I find the iphone increasingly frustrating.

First the constant nagging for apple services (iCloud, Apple Pay, Apple Music, etc). I have to opt out to each of them every time they push any minor (but mandatory) update to iOS.

Then the removal of the audio jack. I just have no appetite for dongles or additional batteries to manage and I need to be able to charge my iphone when I listen to my music.

Then the UI that used to be quite natural now has hundred of hidden gestures, that either make the UI non intuitive, or trigger when trying to do something else.

I'd like them to improve it. I have very appetite to switch to android, which I find a lot more problematic from a privacy point of view. But that doesn't look like the direction of the world.

How about bluetooth headphones? AirPods or otherwise? I highly recommend them. I happened to receive a pair of powerbeats wireless2 headphones a while back and while they're not perfect, using regular wired headphones feels incredibly archaic these days.

As I said, no appetite to manage more batteries that I already do (which is already way too much).
