I don’t know about totally get screwed, considering Android phones aren’t at the top of the line price bracket. Similar with Apple’s computer systems, they are expensive. for a lot of people, they can just buy a less expensive phone or computer for work, that gets what they need to done. I will agree that Apple did trick a lot of people into emulating them, but they are far from a monopoly since they really don’t have inexpensive options. It reminds me of back in the days where they showed off the high-end processing power of the iMac, but then, when I looked at the price tag, I realized then, just as now, why Apple Computer occupies the niche it does in the PC market, and also in the mobile phone market. They don’t have many lower-cost options. I do admire the performance, but they are for those who make more money.

I’m not a big Apple vs Android type but I just upgraded my phone and almost went with the Droid platform (my wife and I have iPhones but my older kids who pay for their own phones have Droids) but compatibility with iTunes (I’m stuck) Apple TV, and the customer service experience with Apple kept me in an iPhone. However, there was not that much difference in price between the two. IPhone 6 plus and a Samsung something that had a large screen so my middle aged eyes could read.
