Cutting edge technology. Dope peripherals like the S-Pen or cool features like running two apps, simultaneously, "default app" or the secured folder. No proprietary cables, no locked in ecosystem. Not being apart of that cultish childish "your text chat color is a different color lol" group. Variety in hardware choice
Side loading apps, Emulators, better widgets, Tasker, YouTube Vanced, KDE Connect, Reverse wireless charging, file management like a PC, Apps overlay, apk files, icon packs..
But most importantly, customization. Every single thing on my Galaxy 22 Ultra is customized. Something as simple as nova launcher got my phone doing all types of shyt.
My biggest gripes with iPhones is that Apple assumes direct control and forces everyone to use them mfs the same way and that they're status symbols.
If you want to see what a phone can really do, you need a top of the line Android. Period.
My second phone is an iPhone and it's only good for basic shyt like making calls, taking pictures and interacting with other iPhone users. Every time I use it, I feel handicapped and sluggish. Everything is just faster on Android, since shortcuts for everything is everywhere.
iPhones are for women, kids who want to fit in with others and
brehs who say shyt like "I just want my phone to work!"
