Microsoft decided to kill Windows Phone.

Got bored of using Android for so many years. I still switch between iPhone and Samsung and currently I’m using the S23 Ultra, but I might switch back to iPhone because it has USB-C now.

iMessage

It was my first phone so I just sticked with the brand but the phone is the only thing I own from Apple.

Its trendyzThe looks you re cool and dont bring the BS that they never have issues and it just works.

I got used to it ever since I was a kid. My iPhones are all hand me downs from my parents (iPhone 4, iPhone 5, iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus). My parents bought me an iPhone 11 and now, I bought the 15 Pro Max.

I’m not the type of person that prioritizes customizability and I just prefer a simpler way of using the phone. And I won’t lie, I prefer Apple also because of its prestige. Although I am not a tech snob as I plan on owning a flagship android should I make more money to have the best of both worlds.

But for now, I love my new iPhone.

I use an iPhone because everything works pretty well, when I get a new phone everything transfers seamlessly, and I’ve never had a reason not to use an iPhone.

Also, iMessage is huge in my family. Group chats and FaceTime are essential for staying connected with them. My dad has an android and is consistently using my moms iPhone to stay in the loop with photos, videos, etc sent from the rest of the family.

Why not?

Because OnePlus failed its customer promise and directed away from what it originally was. It is what you get trying to appeal to the masses and losing your identity along the way. So I decided to change the manufacturer after 7 years on OnePlus. 7 pro was my last device and it was good. Peak OnePlus right there

Nothing but bad experiences with Samsung devices, so I don’t want to buy one.

Pixel has hardware issues and subpar specs, also not officially available or supported in my country.

Decided to give a try to iPhone after years on windows phone and nearly a decade on Android.

I like the device integration and the walled garden.

Things done right

Wanted to see how the other side lived, turned out I liked it.

I need a working, synchronized, ecosystem that is safe, reliable and that does not steal my data (harvest). As long as Apple can provide that I will not even look at other solutions

Got good promotions from my carrier and then been getting free upgrades (except tax) every year so why not.

I use both the 15 pro and the Galaxy S23U. Prefer samsung as it has more customizable UI and various multitasking features. I can make my phone look and behave the way it’s most comfortable for me to use. It’s basically a computer in my hand.

iPhone is my work phone and would only recommend to someone who wants a basic phone which does all that a generic smartphone should do (and apple is very good at doing these things) and is not too techy. iPhones UI is smooth, has good battery backup, has great camera and everything that an average joe would need. All these are also true with any android nowadays but an average user won’t use all the features anyways and might confuse some non techy people.
