Glad you’ve found the right phone for you. I to have Consistently bashed iPhone without ever owning one, so when an opportunity presented itself I purchased a iPhone 7 just to have as a 2nd phones and actually gain some experience with the platform. My main phone is a Galaxy Note 8.

What I’ve learned so far? For me , iPhones are solid devices, good hardware and iOS is very solid software no real complaints. But it hasn’t blown me away. If I had to choose 1 for me I would go with Android. It may be familiarity, idk but if I could try to use imagery I would say Android in its current state feels like a big open city where anything is possible (good or bad) like NYC. On the other hand iOS feels like a small southern town where everything runs at an even calm pace, no excitement, no surprises just a solid due as expected everyday pace. I hope that makes sense, it’s the best example I can provide for my thoughts.

Don’t get me wrong, in actual real life I like small towns, and honestly I’ve come to enjoy iOS! I won’t bash it again, unless it’s warranted lol. I now like having both ecosystems, my note 8 is my big beautiful city with all the glamour and lights that u occasionally need a break from and my iPhone 7 is that super comfortable, scenic rural town in the mountains everyone should visit every now and then.

Hello everyone! My name is Blair and I’m a 38 year old single father of a wonderful 6 year old daughter, Kenadie. I live in right outside Philadelphia in Levittown.

So the traitor part ? I have been on Android’s since literal day 1 when I preordered this crazy looking litttle phone called the G1 from T-Mobile.
I’ve worked on ROM teams and used to it mess with whatever phone I had multiple times a day. But it just got old and boring. I didn’t want to mess with my phone anymore and just wanted one that worked great without fussing with it. So I got the Pixel XL. For a while I had what I wanted. No needing root and no ROM flashing to work great.
Long story short, a buddy of mine was first to come to iPhone early this year. After I talked with him about iPhone for a long time and after my pixel xl and android just kept getting slow and buggy. I made the switch. And I’m in love. I’m also feeling like an ***** for bashing Apple for so many years.

I love this phone. I’ve also seen how other iphone uses treat others and wow! No real bashing and no real trolling? That’s great! Lol

Anyways, enough with the long *** post. I’m glad I swithded and am so excited to keep finding all the cool stuff about iOS and iPhone.
So I’m here to stay. Sorry Android but I need this polish and consistency and that’s I’m having on my iPhone.

You just need the Apple Watch, ipad, Apple TV and Mac book!! Then you’re all set
