Why do YOU use iPhone? (alien.top)

I’m curious - why do you pick iPhone compared to other smartphone brands? (Google Pixel, Samsung, OnePlus, etc.)

(I’m also going to be asking in other phone subs, hope this survey goes well)

I always end up with an iPhone. I hate expensive things that don’t feel well polished. Every year I go through usually 5-6 phones just because I’m in a position where I can swap frequently.

For example I got the fold 5 on launch and ended up trading it in for the S23 ultra because the fold had so many bugs. When I got the S23, I had issues with frames dropping in animations all the time and it felt sluggish. Given the cost I thought it was unacceptable so I traded the s23 ultra in for a pixel 8 pro. I had issues with overheating and frame drops as well as signal issues so I returned that and bought a 15 pro.

So for me, it’s not really that I want to use an iPhone, it’s that the competition doesn’t have as smooth of an experience. Once I find a brand that can make android smooth and reliable, I’ll likely switch to that.
