I was using Samsung since the S3 up until note 8. Had the note 8 for 5 years (still have it)
My sister bought a used iPhone 8 from someone and when I compared the 2 the 8 just felt so smooth compared to note 8. I started doing more comparisons with iPhones older than the note 8 and I consistently got better performance from the iPhones. I eventually decided that I was gonna switch.
I didn’t care for customization since it was all the same to me after 5 years with the note 8. The older I got the less I downloaded outside the play store so a lot of what attracted me to Android was slowly losing their appeal.
Got the 14 pro and everyday I take the time to unintentionally look at how great it looks. I compare it with the s22 and there’s this smoothness about the iPhone that just gives it the edge. The restrictiveness that I constantly hear from others about iPhone either doesn’t bother me or I haven’t seen any. I also certainly do not miss the curved screen. It’s also so much more easier to sort things like notifications where on my note I’d have tons of them with slight difficulty turning them off.
