Here’s the thing about that ... and speaking from experience ... I’ve got the iPhone and iPad. Now with the iPhone, I’ve actually compared it to the Android models (from some others around me). I’ve had time to actually use the Android phone and it just doesn’t compare, in any good way, to the iPhone. Also the infrastructure for the iPad and iPhone isn’t there for Android, not in the seamless way it is for the iOS devices. My actual hands-on experience shows that.
NOW ... you say that is simply “buying on brand” ... while I would say it’s from hands-on experience ... which then “recognizes” the brand as superior.
From all aspects of the USAGE I can see no reason why anyone would want an Android phone (or tablet). It baffles me as to why people want that junk ... but ... when I look around in the overall market, I do see that there are always people who buy junk. So, I guess that applies with Android, too.
I had an iPad.
I took it back to the store..................
