Android Guy switched to iOS for a day...

You claim many Android users long for iMessage, But believe it or not just as many do not care. That was my point. All the other stuff you talking about is off topic. So let's leave it alone. Since you missed my point for Apple trying to lock users into their os.

You literally are doing more typing then reading. I already said what you just did lmao. I specifically said there were many users like yourself who don’t care. Like I actually specifically said that. Did you read that part or were you just eager to say something back. Yea let’s leave it alone because you’d rather argue then read.
 
Stop it. If you was reading so much, why answer to a 5, 6 month old post. However you felt the need to try to bring the old, look at me I tried iOS and it did this and that better, which is just a matter of preference. Last time I checked, this is a Android forum were many come for information on Android related issues.
 
I guess there's no real difference between iPhone and Android devices. And another thing, the price for iPhone is high and the lifetime for iOS or Android devices not so long. I prefer buy a new androide device.
 
Updates has been an issue for Android users since long. Google releases updates for the stock android users but users for customized UI like TouchWiz of Samsung and MIUI of Xiaomi have to wait for a long time before updating their device to the latest version of Android. This has never troubled apple users though as any time apple releases any update it rolls out for all apple devices.

Security and privacy is another issue for android users which apple users don't have to face. New malwares coming up time to time makes android devices insecure and there has always been questions asked about the amount of data being collected by google from our phones which raises concerns about privacy as well.
 
You bring up great points regarding security comparisons for both OS's. I for one have always wondered why anyone would prefer locked down devices such as apple provides over android or windows. But as the saying goes, freedom isn't free.

Giving up certain freedoms with apple brings security and stability. A lot of people aren't techies, so they know no different. Yet, I personally still prefer the freedom to tinker with my android devices though it's more susceptible to malwares.
 
In this condition, there will be tow possibilities, whether the user will shift forever or never move again to iPhone...
 
I switched to iOS too from using android all my life. I like iOS but I've gotten pretty used to android, and I find it way more convenient.
