No full feature set, properitetary hardware, locked down software distribution.
If you are looking at any cell phone and talking about depreciation you already lost.

Years of using Android phones hass given you Stockholm syndrome. iPhones don't depreciate much

google sent me a free pixel phone this week, and asked me to promote it. and one thing I noticed when getting free gifts from companies, is you feel compelled to say good things about the product. its not payola, but its damn near.

How u can be a premium phone and not do all the things premium phones can do? Lol

That varies in what you consider premium. I will say being able to backup everything to iTunes or icloud even the passwords, having better quality apps (yes I know the apps are bigger as opposed to the android counterparts) and getting more updates for a longer period of time is premium.

Everything varies based on the person but the keyboard seems more accurate, and the use of widgets I actually perfer on ios, only being on the lock screen. I like the ease of use, slide down search, slide up for utilities.

I miss downloading whole albums, movies and all I won't say I don't, ios is very restricted but as a basic smartphone for communication, I think apple got it right over androids.

How can you write it can't download music and movies and put it over anything? That's borderline preposterous.

How? & Why?
they've been sending the phones out to people they deem to have online or social influence, and the why is to promote it. funny thing is ive never heard of any other company doing this besides MS and blackberry, im not sure if they really needed to do this as the phone is good. BUT... when they ask you to mention it on your socials or reviews you feel like you have to say its excellent.
