if you like paying more for the same specs

When you buy Apple products, you don’t just buy specs like you do for things like Android devices. No, you’re buying first party software that is built for the hardware it runs on. You can’t say this for any Android device besides the Pixel line.

What a lot of Android users don’t know or understand is that the optimization between the hardware and the software of Apple products is what makes up for the seemingly lack of specs on paper. You don’t need 6/8+ GB of RAM in an iPhone because iOS knows how to handle apps more efficiently than Android can because the two platforms are built differently. Specs don’t mean everything and they don’t tell the whole story about a device.

being limited on what you can download onto your phone

If it saves my phone from being destroyed by a virus when I accidentally click on a bad link, I will gladly take this sacrifice. I used Android for 7 years. While it was nice to be able to download apps from another App Store like Amazon or from an APK site or whatever, this was never something that I saw as a huge advantage. Obviously for some people it might be an advantage, but I’d rather not unknowingly download a random APK and have it break my phone

A lot of flagship Android phones need to do the same thing nowadays

But no, people have to be fanboys of companies that shit on consumers because they are susceptible to advertising and what is popular and couldn't care less.

Like I said, I don’t agree with everything Apple does. But then again, I don’t agree with a lot of things that a lot of other companies do either. That doesn’t make the companies altogether terrible. Apple isn’t the only company that shits on their consumers anyway. I can say that about Google, about Facebook, about Samsung, etc.
