iphone. They're solid and they get updates forever so there is no rush to upgrade. I don't miss Android and not getting updates 6 months after I buy the phone.
If you buy an iPhone 6 months before EOL you'll also only get 6 months of updates
If you buy a non-flagship android you may get zero updates. I'm not hating on Android, but the update situation remains a joke for most Android phones.
That's simply not true. Most 200 to 300 phones get a couple Android version updated and 3 or more years of security updates. You also can't compare an iPhone to a non flagship. iPhones themselves are flagship devices.
Nowdays, I think the software support is basically the same.
Not even close. iPhone 8 from 2017 is still supported.
I mean the new android phones have 8 years of software support. You can still use phones with outdated software.
Well then you’re already unreliable and hyperbolic for giving advice as Android do in fact get updates well after 6 months. And no one can assure ‘forever’. Not even apple. I’ve had iPads complain they can’t be updated and force to go buy a new one.
Fanboi detected! 😂 Android phones vary in how many updates they will get based on manufacturer and price point of the phone. Google guarantees 4 years...that it. Others only reliably update flagship phones. I like the Android operating system, but the update situation is still largely a joke...as is the bloat in most Android phones.
Nice that you announce your arrival. I don’t see that too often.
I like the part where you proved my comments wrong...oh wait...
I’m not your employee. You are not owed a ‘discussion’.
Pout away. 😂
