It was the exclusive apps available at that time (4S era), the jailbreaking stuff and the beautiful skeuomorphic inspired icons. Nowadays it’s just because I’m used to iPhone otherwise I might just move to Android once the transfer of apps have become flawless. I do want the ability to freely transfer from iOS to Android on a whim.

it checks out when i’m not being insulted by people, is that not fair enough?

judging by the downvotes, i guess not. i’ll keep in mind next time to be really nice and friendly when someone attacks me for no reason and calls me a motherfucker.

I was using Samsung since the S3 up until note 8. Had the note 8 for 5 years (still have it)

My sister bought a used iPhone 8 from someone and when I compared the 2 the 8 just felt so smooth compared to note 8. I started doing more comparisons with iPhones older than the note 8 and I consistently got better performance from the iPhones. I eventually decided that I was gonna switch.

I didn’t care for customization since it was all the same to me after 5 years with the note 8. The older I got the less I downloaded outside the play store so a lot of what attracted me to Android was slowly losing their appeal.

Got the 14 pro and everyday I take the time to unintentionally look at how great it looks. I compare it with the s22 and there’s this smoothness about the iPhone that just gives it the edge. The restrictiveness that I constantly hear from others about iPhone either doesn’t bother me or I haven’t seen any. I also certainly do not miss the curved screen. It’s also so much more easier to sort things like notifications where on my note I’d have tons of them with slight difficulty turning them off.

For the ecosystem. I had the iPad first then the macbook. Then later decided to get an iPhone for a fuller experience. And boy did it deliver. While it’s not my favorite camera (I still prefer Pixel’s photos any day), I grew to appreciate the reliability of the camera system as well as the relative stability and fluidity of iOS these days.
