Yes, I'm the one in the group DM that turns the bubbles green, I'm sorry.

But other than that, I don't hear many other reasons why people actually prefer iPhones over Androids. What other reasons are there?

I like that I don’t have to customise or complicate the phone experience. I just want it to browse and communicate. I leave customisation for desktop. Blue bubble is a plus. Same system as my wife is important. And honestly I just like iPhones inertia when scrolling. Androids don’t look or feel right to me.

For fun. My last iPhone was a 4S, and after that I had a couple Sony Xperias and a Samsung Galaxy. When it was time to upgrade, I decided to get an iPhone 11 for a change, for no other reason than to see what they're like nowadays.

I've been really happy with it, it does everything I need it to do, and I don't miss the Galaxy at all.

Integration. When I copy on my [Mac|iPhone|iPad|AppleTV] I can then paste on the other devices. When I enter the search field on the AppleTV my phone lets me type to the screen. I can transfer web pages from screen to screen if I wanna change where I'm browsing. All my devices work seamlessly with my AirPods. Etc.

The Apps are just better. There are lots of great android apps but doesn’t compare with what’s available for iOS.

Ease of use: I don’t want to even have the ability to tinker with my UI, etc. I like the fact that it’s simple and predictable. Plus iMessage is so good.

Ecosystem: iPhone, Apple Watch, iPad, Apple TV, Mac. They all work together and very well.

Health/Fitness: Apple actually puts effort into this category when no other Android manufacturer consistently does. Goes along with Apple Watch.

I don’t want to be the guy with low res photos in the group chat
