For me, its honesty the earbuds. I have the apple pro earbuds, and I just don’t feel like jumping ship to Samsung and having to spend $200 for their brand or some other brands version. For me, I’m deep in the apple ecosystem as of right now though. I have the iPad, iPhone, watch, earbuds, HomePod. So not only am I not driven to go to another brand, it’s not economically feasible for me to.

So yeah, I would say it would start with basically the earbuds. You can combo other brand earbuds with your phone or tablet, but the earbuds only work with apple and you can tell that is the case when you use them. For me the earbuds was the point of no return on wireless devices from apple.

Go to T mobile and get a great deal on an iPhone 13.

I get that from wind, or when I speak with my wrist to close to my mouth, and especially when listening to music in my car. I think it is just to sensitive.

Way way way better camera. Way way way better screen. Way way way better battery life. Other than basically everything that makes a phone great, you’re not missing out.
