Android is my favorite currently, but when I was growing up it was Symbian, comparing it to java it was miles ahead with way more advanced capabilities!

      my problem with iphones is that when they release new models they update the previous ones to make them slower, so people feel like they have to buy the new one since the old is not working well anymore. I did love my iphone 4 though when it was working great!

        This is true, though you can hang out on the older version for a while if you like. I stayed on iOS 15 for several months into iOS 16 because it was rock solid stable after getting a year’s worth of patches.

        iOS 16 is fine now, but the phone is definitely a little slower than it used to be, even with a fresh Apple-blessed battery.

        I also miss my iPhone 4S, that thing felt SO good in hand.

          yeah you could, but it just felt like a scummy move and I don’t want to promote such actions, so since then i have always been getting android devices! i do still appreciate that iphone changed the world though
