MODERATORS
I could post why I do not like Apple, but that isn't why I prefer Android.
I like how there are a ton of options on Android. I can control what hardware I have, from an ultrabudget $100 phone to a $2000 foldable flagship. I can choose how I control my device, I can choose how my device looks. All of these things add up to letting me have the best experience.
I also like how you can install custom ROMs on many devices. This allows even more options in terms of personal control.
I just switched from an iPhone X to a Samsung A53. I'm a bit blown away with all the customization that is offered on an uprooted phone, nearly more if not equal to my jailbroken customization capabilities. Really impressed so far.
