My Experience Switching From Android To iPhone

Frustration level: Could be worse

Hello, Clarice (Photo by Abdullah Omar on Unsplash)

Yes, I know I said I would never get an iPhone, but I also said I was going to start working out every day and stop eating three-day-old popcorn for lunch. But, here we are.

Look, Android made me buy an iPhone. If I could afford to upgrade to an Android that was small and had a camera as good as the cheapest iPhone (my only two requirements) I would have stuck with Android.

All the Androids I looked at were the size of bricks. Everything’s getting larger when it should be getting smaller.

The iPhone SE (3rd gen) I finally settled on is considerably smaller than the LG I had before, and the camera is crystal clear. With the LG, I was lucky to take any picture that didn’t look like a dead Victorian child’s ghost.

Voilà.

The newest addition. Heavy as hell and yes, I know it’s crooked.

And the iPhone is only setting me back $11 a month compared to the $25-$30 per month for a Samsung or Pixel.

But fear not, Apple still finds a way to fuck you.
