How could this be viewed as a flex. It would be akin to viewing someone burning money in a sealed plexiglass cage where they also need to announce how easy it was to enter.
I bought a new iPhone 6 for $200 when they were a couple years old. I used it for 3 years and was pretty happy with it. The idea that iPhones are more expensive than android is about 10 years outdated. You do get higher specs for the price with android but it doesn’t make a huge difference unless you’re trying to be bleeding edge.
It's not that android phones themselves cost less. Though they very often do. It's that apple keeps you locked into a shitty app environment, has garbage peripherals with insane price tags, and connecting it to a Windows machine is a pain.
I don't really want to do anything with apps besides camera, photos and a web browser, steam link, discord, garageband and various apps I have to install like my medical apps, so that's fine with me. I used to alternate between Android and iOS every time I bought a phone and I gave up after the Galaxy S9. I bought the S9 because it theoretically had a better camera than the iPhones I was comparing too, but the camera app was far inferior so that didn't work out. I don't use any peripherals, and have no desire to connect my phone to Windows... so, works great for me.
Makes sense. And I agree that Samsung phones are full of problems, fucking Bixby bullshit.
File transfer is my main issue with apple, and it can still do that you just need to jump through their proprietary hoops.
Pretty much they want to force you to have a Mac, and that is indeed annoying. There’s an iCloud plugin for Explorer but it’s terribly written. It’s possible to use the website, I guess.
