Hey all!
I used Android from 1.5 on an HTC Hero all the way to 5.0 on a Nexus 5.
After some bad experiences on the Nexus 5, I decided to go over to Apple for the iPhone 6 Plus and currently use a iPhone 7 Plus.
However, I'm thinking of coming back to Android and the Essential phone is looking attractive to me.
My main concern is that I want to make sure that the main issues I left Android for have been addressed. I left because of poor stability, poor battery life, and the only truly great hardware being paired with bad software.
The Essential and several others have seemed to address the last point. However, what about the first two? I could count on one hand the number of times my iPhones have frozen and needed in the last 2-3 years. Same with the number of times I've found myself with a dead phone. Under moderate to heavy use, my iPhone will last me from 2 AM until about 330 PM before it needs charged (and then it is around 20%).
