I've been a longtime Android fan, swearing off everything Apple except the original iPods and an iPod touch that was gifted to me awhile back.
I currently have a Note 5 and after the 6.0 update, my phone just bleeds battery life like crazy with Bluetooth on and a Samsung Gear S2 smart watch.
Another frustration is that the Gear S2 tracks my steps, which is tied to S Health. I use MyFitnessPro to track my calories/activity - but it doesn't sync with S Health because they obviously want you to use partner apps/companies that pay them. So I have to have constant workarounds for things I want to have sync on my phone/watch and it's just getting to a point where I just want everything to work.
Not really looking to start a flame war, just honest opinions about people who have been Android and ended up switching to iOS/iPhones and what they liked/disliked. I use Google Music and Books mostly, but other than that I'm not really "tied" to their system and understand most of their services are available on the iPhone itself. I might move over depending on the new iPhone 7 announcement/features, if not I might try to go the way of "pure Google" via the Nexus devices or rumors are now Google is making their own phone. Wondering how the "pure" experience is vs. carrier bloat.
I know Android has a lot of options, which is great and pushes tech forward but sometimes I feel the segmentation just leads to varying performance and minor bugs and issues that just become annoying after awhile. And while iOS is more of a "closed" system, I feel like sometimes that gives them an advantage in the way of application management and updates.
