Why do YOU use iPhone? (alien.top)

I’m curious - why do you pick iPhone compared to other smartphone brands? (Google Pixel, Samsung, OnePlus, etc.)

(I’m also going to be asking in other phone subs, hope this survey goes well)

Because the Android market is in shambles, IMO. Pixel phones are in my mind the only good Android phones, except since the release of the 6 they have been garbage. That naturally coincides with the release of the Tensor chip and the adoption of the trendy underscreen fingerprint reader. 3 iterations of this Pixel generation and they refuse to change out that awful optical fingerprint reader. If they would change that one thing, I could deal with the rest of the bugginess of Tensor phones.

Samsung is out the question. I do not want an inferior Samsung mirror version of every Google app or feature, or that horribly stupid looking UI.

All other Android brands are Chinese companies, so they are a big nope. Motorola could be great if they weren't owned by Lenovo.
