I have both just to have both ecosystems at my finger tips and frankly I love both for different reasons. Can't imagine not having both imo.
After more than 15 years covering everything Apple, it’s with a heavy heart we announce that we will no longer be publishing new content on iMore and the iMore forums will be closing as of November 1st, 2024.
Agreed and I've been bashed here for saying the same thing by the apple fanbois here. My iPhone X is the last iPhone I'll ever by. Sadly I'm stuck with an iPad because ForeFlight isn't available for Android or even a Microsoft Surface.I just switched back after I found out iOS was sabotaging the speed of my iPhone 6+. I thought it seemed unreasonably slow!
I had Android devices all the way up to the iPhone and thought iOS was an improvement, but I think Android is progressing faster and newer versions are an improvement on iOS now. Going from 4.4 KitKat to 7.12 Nougat is almost like being on an entirely different platform.
Plus, the devices have greater longevity if you can root them and they have good 3rd party ROM support. I found this out ages ago from a Windows phone that had Android ROMs developed for it - it was amazing and cost next to nothing because, you know, Windows. Having a good-working paid-off device is really the best feature available.
I use both platforms with a Mate 9 currently taking up the android flag.
