I've always been an Android person. I like the customizability of the Android platform. And I liked how I could interact with the Android phone itself; the widgets, everything.
However, being on Verizon, the one thing I absolutely hate about Android is how LONG it takes to get the latest Android OS update. Seriously, it took a full YEAR between the actual public release of Nougat and for the OTA install to be available on my phone. My premier Verizon exclusive top dollar Android phone. And you know that major cellular providers will have had access to early versions of that new Android OS for months prior to the public release. Verizon's excuse has always been something like, "We want to make sure our users have the best possible experience." BS. They really just want people to give up waiting and BUY a new phone with the newer Android OS.
So, when I was able to get a slightly older iPhone 6 Plus for <$50, I bought it.
I've had it for a week, and the DAY that iOS 12 was publicly available, it was available to download and install.
It's taking some getting used to, since I'm unfamiliar with how to access stuff. But I'm adjusting pretty quickly. ALL of the apps I used on my Android phone are available on the iPhone. In fact, a couple of apps that I've been waiting for a year to arrive on the Android are already on the iPhone.
Given that a decent phone now cost >$700, I'm probably going to use this one for quite a while.
And, I'm not really sure if I'll be heading back to Android.
