Ehhh, for me personally, I have no working mac, but use iOS - it's mostly just things like having to completely reorient myself around the UX, find equivalents for all of my prior things or repurchase/migrate, stuff like that. Minor stuff but you know -- people hate tiny annoying shit.
Ultimately it's just that I'm very attuned to my phone, so I want to delay and minimize hassle with it as much as possible. The same reasoning isn't always true of every device I own (I run Linux, hack things, I'm quite used to playing with my devices), but I think this is fairly reasonable. I don't really blame anyone who uses Android and feels the exact same way (by all means, I'm sure it's a perfectly reasonable alternative since the Android 2.0 days of yore, when I first went to iOS).
I might pick up a refurb Nexus as a work/burner phone for traveling though.
Did I mention I don't want to have to re-purchase FFVII again?
My problem with Google products is that (it seems) every single product released is designed to collect data in a different manner. It almost as if they only release products so they can collect new data. And you can tell exactly how badly they want your information by just how attractive they make the product offering. Gmail for example.
I always see these types of comments, and it seems like they are either talking from pure bias or outdated experiences.
Flagship android phones are close to flawless not only in hardware but in the integration with Google services, which are far beyond anything Apple has the ability to provide. As a Samsung S7Edge owner I simply cannot relate.
