My incoming calls usually disappear in the island. I often have to tap it and pull my calls out of there by force. Sometimes I prefer to call it Bermuda Triangle for this reason.

These were the devices I was trying to choose between this year and you summed up the reasoning for going iPhone perfectly. My main reasons to go iPhone were:

  • Reliability and software experience
  • Reliable, long-lasting battery life
  • Better display and brightness
  • Reliable camera in both pictures and video
  • Apple Watch >>>>>> any Android watch

Overall, it's just a way more reliable and established experience and I know that the Pixel 7 Pro would've had better pictures but the ultrawide camera and videos on the iPhone are much better than the Pixel's.

I'll see how the Pixel 8 improves but I feel like Google's locked in to the Pixel 6/7/8 series and don't expect changes until at least the 9.

So it’s broad but as for me, I travel very frequently and am on Zoom calls all day (8-10 calls each over an hour) on my phone along with seeing, commenting and reviewing docs, presentations, plans on my phone while collaborating for hours. The iPhone isn’t built for serious on the go work as far as I’m concerned as I always had to take out my Mac (great device, best laptop hands down) to get the work done. This wasn’t the case when I used an Android s22 ultra, pixel 7, I was moving fast seamlessly. Even the battery is pathetic on 14 Pro so even that isn’t an argument anymore. I use my iPhone just for texting, music and watching Twitch.
