Unless you download large files with unlimited data plans, or use your iPhone as hotspot for Macbook whilst traveling for work - I don’t see the need to upgrade. 4G works plenty fast for most handheld mobile operations.

Reply to comment by galactilicious in Is there a point in investing in an iPhone if no one around me has one? by galactilicious
To me iPhones are the best, but that’s based on my own user experience and satisfaction. If you do decide to take the leap, do it with an open mind. And let it settle, because iOS feels different. I won’t say iPhones are the best for everyone, but they’re definitely very good. The same way other flagships are very good. If you’re open to new, go for it. ;) Haha

There’s no reason to jump to iPhone, because flagships offer similar performance overall of it’s pricepoint. iPhone advantages above Android:
- Tight integration of hardware and software: quality native apps with great integration to compliment itns features
- Reliable and consistent software updates for 5-6 years
- Consistent performance, because Apple designed it’s hard and software. Not a reskin from an already existing operating system.
Android advantages over iOS: (high end)
- Cutting edge technology
- More camera features, better zoom.
- Open operating system, customisable UI
- Better display technology
I am a firm iPhone user, but I see both have their weaknesses aswell. The weakness will only show itself if you have it as a daily driver. The decision is in your camp, opinions have no value - user experience does. Bottomline: if you’re content about Android, there’s no real reason to swap out for an iPhone. If you’re open minded, and looking for something different, then it’s interesting to run to the nearest store and demo it. To experience.

Insane how technology evolves, a breakthrough feature rather than small camera quality increasements or faster chips. On annual releases, minor things. This feature is quite big. I thought Crash Detection was pretty nifty, Google took it further, nice!

Reply to How good is FaceID in 2023? by zeppovendetta
Face ID is as good, if not better than TouchID. Generally the gesture based features are much more modern, than the button or haptic button. While they were reliable, Face ID doesn’t disappoint.
