I initially started with android. They were affordable, had expandable storage and generally had better specs that i cared about (bigger screen, bigger battery capacity and exciting customization) but once android phones started going up in price, i began questioning why they still stuttered, had only two year software updates, had really poor app optimization and resell value. Apple by this point released the goldillocks sized XR which was relatively cheap and had good battery life so I switched and never looked back. Now I know what "it just works" meant. I just reached my 4th year with the xr and will be upgrading to the 15 in fall.
