What made you switch? Curious to get and apple persons perspective. Ive always been a note guy so i am very curious. Welcome to the club!
I have always admired Android, but I found myself deep in the apple ecosystem. iMessage, Facetime, iTunes - everything was all connected. That's what kept me going along with them. Last year with the 7 plus, I was excited about the camera but hugely disappointed with the same old 1080p screen. I was growing tired of paying a premium price for a product that felt inferior to its Android counterparts.
This year I told myself that the iPhone 8 (or X) didn't "wow" me, I would break away from them. The iPhone X was the worst presentation I've watched in years (in my opinion). It was a beta device being introduced to us as "the future." The price point was ridiculous! They couldn't figure out touch ID, so they tried to upsell this "facial ID is the future" crap. The OLED is nice, but it's Samsung's leftovers (600 nit brightness compared to 1000 and 1200 with the S8 and Note 8) I also noticed a few other things that made me jump:
- Applecare price increase
- upgrading storage capacity jumped from $100 to $150
- to get the best iPhone X, I'd have to spend beyond $1200
It seems all about the money to apple now.
