Switching to iOS

| So I've been exclusively been an Android user for a long while, and the only thing that prevented me from getting an iPhone was it's form factor and lack of wireless charging.

iPhone X pretty much addressed all my physical issues with the phone, but what are some of the hurdles with migrating over software wise?

I'm not much of a tinkerer and besides "clover" & danger/u/ I don't really use any non-play store apps.


| ... Why would you want to do something so foolish?


| Namely to have a phone I know will retain value 2/3 years later. I've always had mid-tier android phones up till now and always wanted an iphone


| i actually switched to iOS from android earlier this year after using android phones since the beginning. the only thing i really miss is emulators and easy editing of text files on the filesystem (which you could do without a jailbreak, but i don't know if i could recommend that these days out of security)


| i also can't type. *can't do without a jailbreak. but i have no issues and think this 6s will last me another year easily.


| If money isn't an issue, then go for it. My only problem with Apple products is the premium you have to pay for them.


| When you boil it down, there is no real difference. iPhones lack the ability to install apps from outside the app store (and doesn't have emulators if you care about them) but that's about it
Feature and performance wise, all high end Android phones and iPhones are almost exactly the same
You could indeed argue that the iPhone is updated for longer, but I am now typing this from my 4 years old LG g3 running lineageOS 15 (aka android 8)


| Damn should have done that with my lg g2. Love that phone but software bug in kit kat fucked it.
