I've been an iPhone user for about 4-5 years now. But there's something about android that has always made me want to get a nexus phone, let me explain. While I do love the iPhone, in my opinion Apple has released updates that either makes the apps crash more or has bugs that should have been found during testing. While I know everyone's experience is different, this has been happening to me since the iPhone 5S. In 2015, I got a nexus 6 through my job (I work for a carrier). And I decided to test the phone for a month to see if I could officially make the switch. Although it was a brief experience, I fell in love with it. I loved the huge screen, that massive battery, and the dual stereo speakers. Then I switched back to my iPhone 6, and used the nexus to surf the web or watch videos. September came and both Google and Apple announced their new flagship phones, and I fell in love with the Nexus 6P.
During all my reading and research, I've noticed people say "yeah but googles apps are available on iOS as well". And while this is true, it's not the same to me. I'm an iPhone user who is in love with Google services. At work, my coworkers have this joke where they say I'm the "Google advocate". Reason being is because I prefer googles services instead of apples. I hate iCloud Photo Library and the moment Google
Photos was available for iPhone, it was installed and is my go to app for photo storage. The biggest perk iOS has in my honest opinion is iMessage, this is the best way to communicate in my opinion. I do wish someone made an a texting app that would be able to communicate with iPhones and make it think it's another iPhone. But a man can only dream. Ever since Google has committed to monthly security patches, I feel like the Nexus phones are great. Yeah people may argue that android is fragmented and vulnerable. But let's be honest, what are you doing on your phone that would cause it to become vulnerable (I mean this in a jokingly way).
My question is if anyone here has switched from an iPhone to a nexus device, if it's not to much of a bother can you please share your stories about the switch. Sorry for the long post but I would really love to hear some of your stories. I would gladly appreciate.
