Now I realise, this is a touchy subject but it has to be brought up. I've been mashing my brains on the subject of whether I should stay with Apple and buy an iPhone XS or should I buy an Android phone??
The problem is, which Android phone to choose from. They're all huge, which to me is nearly a deal breaker because I prefer a smaller form factor and although they appear to be better on paper I still think Apple have a good level of optimisation in their software making the lesser specs not even matter THAT much.
With that being said, I like how with Android you can split screen your apps. That's something I love the thought of, I have many other reasons to consider both.
Any android device that supports a good custom rom

If you are tech savvy, get an android, if not, get an iphone. Both are botnet, iphone less botnet ootb, but you can make android spy less than iphone.
Leo Edwards
If you want to be spied on: Android. If you're a poorfag: Android. If you're a minority: Android
If you're white: iPhone.

I like to think I'm tech savvy but I gotta admit I am a scrub for paying for brand names too, I really am a sucker for the way Apple promote the premium feel of their phones
Logan Morgan
OP here, I'd like to also point out how much I fucking hate how flimsy and proprietary the charger and headphones are for iPhones, this is my main gripe about Apple yet I'm still considering buying one...
Gavin Evans
this sums it up pretty nicely
Cooper Thompson
They're not particularly flimsy at all, you must treat your stuff poorly.
Samuel Martinez
just get a fucking 250bux chinkphone or Nokia, it's a fucking phone!
Tyler King
Name me an open source calendar app then. Preferable one that's not shit. Also all launchers like Nova are proprietary. You fucking children lied to me. I miss my iPhone 4S already.
Carter Jackson
Simple Calender, Kiss Launcher
Cameron Hernandez
I use a blackberry. keeps me out of the google botnet and the iphone walled garden and security holes.
also keeps me from wasting time on pointless apps since BBOS 10 has >no apps

The Pixel 3 is going to be an utility monster. It won't feel as high quality and good looking as the XS, but it certainly will help you get through the day.
Ryder Morgan
I use iPhone because it works more often for the simpler things and when I'm outside I don't usually have time to be fucking around with software problems.
Daniel Cruz
What lesser specs are you talking about? A11 from last years iPhone still rapes everything.
Aaron Gonzalez
If you have to ask strangers what to get clearly its too early for you to own a phone. When you grow up you will develop this thing called your own opinion
Cooper Cook
Get a Nokia N9 and enjoy a GNU/Linux phone.
Jack Brooks
If youre a Mactoddler homosexual
Christian Perez
Not sure of any raping it's done since release. OnePlus has annihilated it in every speed test
I want to buy the x, it just feels so nice and much higher quality compared to the s9, but god dammit I can't make the switch to ios. I've been raised on android and I can't switch off of it
Jordan White
iOS has a torrent client and file managers.
Adrian Morales
Wait till next year. Apple will ditch the stupid notch. Androids are for poor and autistic people.
If you need something to tide you over get an iphone se. They are practically free.
Joseph Martinez
street shit harder ipoojeet
Liam Brown
no it doesn't
Nicholas Parker
Filza and iTransmission

>device dependant lmao having to wait months for support if you get a new phone >have to be side loaded at the whim of apple revoking their keys kek

>I love the thought of But you will never actually do. This platform is not worth it with all the substandard apps. I switched to S8+ last year because there was no X+ at that moment but I'll be switching back to XS Max in a month. >basic apps constantly crash or misbehave >bloatware >battery drain in standby. Yes battery is decent on my phone but whether or not you use it throughout the day - by the bedtime you'll have 15%. My 6s+ could stay at like 70% if I had a busy day and didn't use the phone much. >video recording, and especially stabilization is an absolute garbage compared to iPhones. Every video is a jelly mess. >I'm using it since November and it's ALL scratched up EVERYWHERE. Gorilla glass my ass. I don't use cases but I'm very careful with my things. My iPhones always looked like new apart from minor wear on metal parts. Glass always was in a pristine condition. This one looks like garbage after one year of use. >updates are delayed by months or years sometimes unless you have a pixel or a stock Android phone. >no proper gesture control >never had any issues with my wireless headphones on my iPhone. With S8 it disconnects or, which is worse, goes mute once in a while. So you have to disconnect and reconnect manually. >you actually can see the massive difference in performance when you do something processing intensive like trimming a 4k video. It takes ages on shitty 835 (I think I have an exynos, but it doesn't really matter), and 845 is not that much faster. >vibration switch is unironically very useful

Get an XZ3 so you can film yourself slapping Apple produces from iFag's hands at 960fps
>If you are tech savvy, get an android, if not, get an iphone Jesus fuck you're retarded. They're both equally "difficult" to use. Android being more difficult is a meme parroted by Apple marketing teams.
Brody Garcia
>iphone less botnet ootb >a closed source operating system without the possibility to unlock the bootloader is somehow "less botnet" What has happened to this place?
Carson Hughes
>tfw it's the first thing i did with my xz premium >film myself in 960fps slapping my macfag colleague over his face
