I’ve been using Apple phones since 2008 - highly recommended.

iPhone may look cool as prestige, but if we look at price performance, I would definitely recommend you to buy an android. Charging is a huge problem for the iphone.   O

Older phones do not keep a charge very well but the newer ones are better.  

 

I upgraded from the Samsung 9+ to the S21. Not sure that it was worth 500$ for the upgrade. Old battery was shit and didn't last a day, so it's nice to have a fresh battery, but I don't care much for the updated camera and other BS. Probably bigger buyers remorse if I paid more and got a similar apple phone.

Point is, figure out what's important to you in a phone. Speed, camera, storage, UI, size dimensions, privacy, customization, whatver. Then find the phone from there

 

As an iPhone user, I will 100% agree that Samsung/LG/etc's technology and hardware are physically better than Apple's. Apple has always been a brand name, and folks are attracted to it of its beautiful UI, the abundance of iPhones, and fear of green texts. I actually just ordered the 14 Pro today and did so knowing full-well that newer Samsung's have better hardware. The iPhone is just so simplistic to use, gets everything you'd ever need to be done, and is just so common in today's world. It's the one choice when pure logic kind of goes out the window, and I get an iPhone to have an iPhone. 

I will say - I think the Max is too big. I've never gotten used to them. I still remember that the 5S was my favorite phone, but it looks SO tiny now compared to my current one. 

 

I've never had Android phone so can't speak on that but Apple dude. They're the fuckin goat. The 13 pro max is crazy. Battery and camera are amazing. Only downside is me getting cancer when I'm 35 from 5G and them forcing me to pay more for cloud storage
