iPhone share is growing because it is the best phone, and has been for quite some time.

Some aspects of androids are better computers, but certain the phone and communication part of them is far far behind.

That's weird. Is there something about the telephony system in the iPhone that's better? First time I've ever seen anyone praise that. People generally care about the curated walled garden experience.

[thebears5454]

Yes, imessage and facetime are vastly superior to whatever the android alternatives are.

[matheusmoreira]

Those aren't telephony services though. They're Apple's WhatsApp/Signal equivalents.

> because it is the best phone

* least bad. Out of two options.

Which, technically, makes it the best.

Some people must think that it's impossible to reach iphone levels of stability, design, etc. but the truth is that google is simply incompetent in the same way microsoft was with windows phone.

[matheusmoreira]

Incompetent doesn't quite do it justice. Google doesn't even sell their phones world wide. It's depressing. They're the only phones with hardware security rivaling that of iPhones too. I don't know which's worse: having to buy from Google to use GrapheneOS or the realization that all the other manufacturers are even further behind.

With remote attestation there'll be no point in running android anyway. Might as well get an iPhone.
