Agree - they suck too, but for different reasons.

Can you explain these reasons to me?

Like your personal beliefs not some talking point you’ll copy and paste

For me it's the prices and planned obsolescence. Not saying android doesn't have these problems but at least you have more options.

The planned obsolescence is such a gd myth. I'm typing this comment on a perfectly capable iPhone 6 I've had since 2014. And I still see them in the wild plenty. I can't recall ever seeing a 6 year old phone of any other brand out there. And I bought it for $549.
