If you think a phone is nothing more than a high refresh screen then an android is definitely for you.

If you think paying 800 bucks for 2015 specs is fine, Apple is for you.
Enjoy the USB 2.0 transfers speeds while at it.
Apple fans, they will defend 8GB and decade old specs to the last day until Apple decides to finally upgrade them.
The pro that does all the video is 10Gbit USB 3, they probably rightfully think iphone users won't be transferring much data from their phones to their workstations.
Also now that they are wifi 7 equipped it wouldn't surprise me that they could airdrop data faster than connecting them over the USB cable if the other device is also wifi 7
What apple needs is fast charging and sane prices (if they wanted to sell me an iphone)

your statement made it sound like for $800 all you get is a screen. but obviously a phone is a lot more than a screen. people want high build quality products with 6-8 years of software support that apple provides. all android phones are broken in less than 2. android fans will defend even the crappies build quality plastic phones.

The worst part is that the excuse with the base 15 was that the old SoC didn't have an USB 3 controller.
Now the 16 does, and still gets the 2009 USB port. While still charging an insane price.
Love the 2015 Android mentality. Build quality is comparable at that price range, and phones now have 5 to 7 years of support too. That argument old now.your statement made it sound like for $800 all you get is a screen. but obviously a phone is a lot more than a screen. people want high build quality products with 6-8 years of software support that apple provides. all android phones are broken in less than 2. android fans will defend even the crappies build quality plastic phones.
Keep spreading brand hate and defending a bad product, it's lovely.
The iPhone lineup once again starts with the Pro, anything under it is garbage.

well lately google-samsung catching up with update support (7years)
but lets be honest, that apple long software support isnt that great, look at how much feature for older phones they cut each major release
for build quality, well if you bought phone with similar price range (albeit cheaper) say above $500, it will last as long as iphone
and metal-frame is not equal to "good" build quality, i mean bend-gate with metal frame happen , so
+ if we consider cost to repair to iphone, while for cheap android phone, people can simply buy new one
its just matter people preference, but there no need to support apple-tax
