    My phone has access to my whole life. Anything that isn’t brand new out of the box is way outside what I’m OK with for security.

    Ignoring that, iPhones don’t get that discounted and there’s no amount you could pay me to use Android as a phone.

      Well for me it’s almost the opposite you’d have to lay down a solid salary to get me to use an iPhone as my daily phone so there seems to be some fundamental philosophical differences.

      And flagship Samsung looses like 40-60% price in 18months even though nowadays they are fine for 5+years.

        Aaaaand it would be exclusively a work phone for me. Ive been around long enough to definitely not trust apple. After all, they steal all the time.

        I’d much rather have control over my software than the manufacturer of the hardware, in no small part because of the repurposing I can do (among the many other reasons).
