I was Xiaomi + LineageOS user for 5 years before bought an iPhone and using it for a year.
My experience is shit so far. Simplicity is good but not for me. I don’t even think iOS is a good OS. Like I shouldn’t open the app to let iOS understand I really read that message. I can’t even rotate the screen to the direction I want.
My only excuse is camera. I even tried Galaxy 23 (or maybe 22, not sure) and don’t liked its camera. Is it placebo effect or what? Is there a really an alternative Android with better or equivalent camera?
Might be wrong here as this was years ago that I read about it, but the reason android has a reputation for having a “shit camera” even when the hardware is normally miles better than Apples is because companies tend to favour iOS users (e.g Snapchat) so usually the developers on android don’t implement the camera right, and instead make it screenshot the image on screen. I may be wrong but I think the pixel devices may have better support compared to other Androids when it comes to apps like instagram, Snapchat etc.
