I'm a long time android user and I've kept a iPhone as a second phone for the last few years. This is my first time using only 1 phone and having iOS as my daily driver.. I'll start with cons first apple lock down isn't as bad but it definitely is a slight pain... not being able to make 3rd party apps default kinda sucks so I just stick with the stock apps for messaging emails camera etc.. no fast charging sucks because I usually fall asleep browsing on my phone and I used to be able to get a good charge while getting dressed and be good to go ..no more.. widgets I really wished they had calendar and weather widgets I could use on my home screen in a custom way ... no root access so no downloading music straight to my phone from my one drive 😞 .. those are the only big gripes I have ... pros 😀 No lag no lag no lag this is huge coming from a longtime Samsung user , future proof knowing I will get updates for the next few years doesn't make me have to upgrade every year (although I will) it's a option not a must. 3D Touch I love it .. iOS 10 is dope especially iMessage.. the main apps I use Facebook in particular have little feats that aren't on android like viewing videos in the corner while being able to still scroll. Daul speakers sound great !!! Camera ,man the optical zoom is clutch seriously and so is the optical stabilization, I used to get weird jitters in my video playback on my Sammy. 256gb onboard storage so much faster than sd memory and it shows when scrolling through 800pics and videos on your phone that Speed is needed...build quality is great!!!! Lift to wake works flawlessly and is definitely clutch.. I used to bash apple to death and don't get it twisted I do think thier hardware will still always be a step behind but the software experience makes up for that.. and I can't wait to see what the next iPhone brings to the table ... side note the headphone jack removal doesn't bother me and trust other brands will soon follow suit , I can't wait to pick up the airpods😀
