I mean, that is a bit pretentious, TBF.

I used to look down on people who got iPhones, but I realised it's not their fault, there isn't much choice when it comes to good, dependable, usable smartphones that have years of updates. I'm a Pixel owner, and it's basically the same thing from the other side. Backed by one of the richest companies. The same goes with Samsung, although I personally find their phone software to be really mid.

I upgraded my iPhone XR to a 13 mini last year. I was close to choosing something running Android, but ultimately I just don't want to jump that far in with Google. And really, there's not much of an alternative out there.
