Camera on the latest iPhone has serious problems with picture quality. Lots of people bring up their desire to capture their precious moments with their loved ones on film. But, the iPhone fails to achieve the crisp quality that society demands for use on Facebook. Samsung also has low quality. These are like the two main selling points, picture quality and hard drive storage space. The storage is still very weak compared to a laptop, and has much less customization. Phones are entirely underwhelming, you’ll find yourself spending $5000 just to play Tetris with a glorified block paperweight. Simple, you can’t do anything cool with your money.

My P9P XL sucks but I don't care enough to upgrade it. There isn't a phone out there that is worth paying more than $100 to replace this one.

The 17 pro max does have pretty sick hardware, I even got my first iphone because of that reason alone.

I swear to god android "devs" don't even use their own os. If the devs just added material you after android 9 and didn't change anything else the os would be perfect, they must want their os to die just like windows

as a macos and apple hater and former samsung user i will admit that im one of the people who switched - i moved to iphone a few years ago. the phones are all the same, but having an android phone has been successfully marketed as “lame” or “incel” and android companies have not done anything to fight that. if you won’t even fight for yourself or your customers image, why should i buy your product?
>>
stop using phones, seriously. look at yourself, you are the product, totally controlled by big tech. there is just no reason, phones are just cucked computers.

Simple, iphones are getting better, androids are getting worse.

IOS used to have tons of restrictions.
You couldnt change keyboards, customize home screen, widgets, emulators, file browser, live wallpapers, icon skins... Apple has stopped being autistic and now allows these things.

Meanwhile the big android manufacturers are not innovating (except for samsung privacy screen), they are now more expensive than iphones, they got rid of SD and 3.5mm, google is looking to lock down sideloading apps...

Android still doesn't have a viable find-my alternative, especially airtag equivalent (You can but $3 chink airtags and they work well)

>>108621129
It's true apple will share your data with NSA and mossad, but they will at least not share it with others. For example, most apps will allow you to sign up/in with apple account, and it will make fake emails for you.

I'm a Yuropoor and I generally see more Androids here (I would say 40% iPhone, 60% Android).

But one thing I have noticed in my company is that when someone gets promoted to management it's exclusively iPhone users. No criteria I have seen is more significant than that. Male, female, short, tall, etc. But they're all iPhone users.

Normies can barely sideload at all on ios, its a non factor. Also very few people toss up between an iPhone or Android now, they are mentally locked in. Its not 2015 anymore.

I'm from South America and I only ever see poor/old people using Androids. Anyone who makes above minimal wage has moved to iPhones. The only true holdouts I think are "techy" guys who might own a Pixel or some flagship Samsung.

Unfortunately in 2026 you need an smartphone to lead a normal productive life as a professional adult. You need it for MS Authenticator, MFA text and calls, Uber, and banking pin apps, and all sort of other things like gym, hotel access and what not.
You don't have to be a phone addict or a phone "enthusiast" in any sort of way though, you don't need to obsess about the latest models, or spend 6-8 hrs a day hunched over looking at Tiktok or Instagram. I bought a base iPhone 12 5 yrs ago which I keep updated (or outdated) with the newest iOS version my bank requires, and the apps mentioned earlier. I don't have any social networking apps installed and I do nearly everything I can in my computer.

Samsung has been really dropping the ball with quality control lately. They're basically the only competition.

Im at the point where all I need is my banking app and a basic browser.. Im using a phone thats almost a decade old, and its just fine. I'm past the stages of wanting to game, take pictures, sideload cool foss apps, use my phone for productivity. Etc.

Google cheaping out on hardware in their Pixel phones. That's one of the reasons.
>>
>>108624834
put that phone next to any phone released this year and do the same tasks
you should understand how slow and laggy those old phones really are
I thought my old phone was phone too until I saw just how much time it's really wasting just opening basic apps
>>
>>108624862
I can log into my banking app in under 5 seconds (with pin input). My email app opens instantly.

You can't cheat physics. The sensor is just too small for low light scenarios. Insta360 ace pro 2 does a relatively decent job with its Ai guesswork low light enhancement, but it's still nothing compared to an average full frame camera with a fast lens.
