    People buy iPhone because they’re consistent, polished, and just work. I love my Pixel, but glitches pop up more often than they should for a $1k phone. I don’t think I’d ever return to Apple, but sometimes the temptation shows up when they get a feature (admittedly late) but the implementation and function just plain works.

        Hahahaha

        Sticking one’s head in the sand and pretending security is a non-issue is not actually more secure

          If you can’t admit security is better through IOS then you’re the one sticking your head in the sand, tbh

            Security on Android, as an OS, is arguably better. However in practice it’s very manufacturer-dependent. If they didn’t butcher the OS, and actually rolled updates without carriers getting in the way, it wouldn’t be a contest at all.

              " If they didn’t butcher the OS, and actually rolled updates without carriers getting in the way, it wouldn’t be a contest at all." but they did though.

          Huh?

          Unfortunately for Android users, Google researchers discovered known vulnerabilities, or n-days, that essentially equated to zero-days for Android due to a lack of timely patching issues. The vendor observed that attackers didn’t need zero-day exploits to attack the Android ecosystem because in many cases, patches weren’t available for known flaws, which were then exploited on unpatched devices.
