You should list them. All the Google stuff is available on iPhone as well, if you're willing to give up your privacy.
"And I have had a friend’s iphone 6 in my hand and see no vast improvement. It’s a great phone but I don’t see a need to follow the cult herd in cheerleading it."
The main thing is the lack of fiddling to make it work well, along with the lack of malware - which Android has in plenty. It also has many top feature, such as performance, the best selection of apps, and a great camera.
"Check out Nokia. Those products are truly gems. It’s a Finnish company and hasn’t had as much marketing exposure as Apple or Android but their features more than makeup for the lack of expensive advertising."
Well, it's effectively an American company now, since Microsoft owns it. Regardless, it sits at low single digit marketshare for many reasons, including a major lack of apps. Given my intimate knowledge of Microsoft's poor software design skills, my advice is to stay away. :-)

I have had Android for more than 4 years and have dozens of colleagues who have had it for similar periods. We are all heavy users and not one has ever complained about malware on Android. Google Playstore does a fine job at screening out malware. Your claim is baseless and is grasping at made up fantasy projections to somehow boost a myth of Apple security.
> “It also has many top feature, such as performance, the best selection of apps, and a great camera.”
Your claims of top features of performance and best selection of apps are myths of your own making. And there is no better camera phone than Nokia; not even close.
Your cheerleading of Apple only makes it less credible as most of the world now is Android with Nokia gaining ground. Any of those non-Apple users would laugh at your ludicrous claims that also seem to arise with a misplaced smug arrogance. You are so yesterday that it’s a pity to have to watch your meltdown.
