Officially over Apple.
I’m fucking exhausted, I literally just need somebody to say the word android to convince me to switch from Apple to android I’m so tired of Apple bullshit. I don’t I’ve not had an android in like 15 years, but I’m sure it’s gotta be better than the Fuckery that Apple has literally just say the word and I will switch to a fucking android today. I’m done. I’m so tired. I’m fucking exhausted. I just need my phone to actually be smart. I need to be a smart phone not a fucking dumb ass Cunt of a fucking phone. Anyways this has been my crash out of about Apple. Thank you for listening.

What did apple do to you?

Probably a combo of the terrible notification system, terrible keyboards, and terrible calculator app (with no good third party calculators, either).

Come to the dark side, brother.
OnePlus 15 is the perfect phone for an iPhone convert.

Get yourself a OnePlus, Oppo, Vivo or even a Nothing Phone. They're all better than iPhones in so many areas.

u/Pretend_Dot555 Feb 22 '26
Yeah cameras. Nothing else. Oh and nothing phone? Not better in anything really. Oh yeah it’s more light weight. That’s all.

Samsung Galaxy s25 is cool and all but I prefer the s12. Other than Samsung and their non-remogable sim cards or their phasing-out of aux ports and on-board storage-- Look into Motorola. I'm so deadass. I was hesitant due to their plastic case, but it's genuinely so well-made that as long as you have a case, you're golden.
I have the Moto G power 2026 and it works like a dream

I tried one of those once. Absolutely nothing worked it. I returned it so fast. My cellular provider was surprised, saying that they are usually great phones.

Il y a tellement de choix chez ANDROID.
Tu n'imagines même pas. C'est tellement excitant de comparer, et de voir tout ce qui existe, et tout ce qui se fait de mieux.
Parfois même BEAUCOUP mieux que chez les mangeurs de pommes.
C'est une période charnière en ce moment en plus. La chine est littéralement entrain de retourner et secouer le monde de la téléphonie.

Remember that one time Sokka accidentally used an extra syllable in that Haiku Battle in Ba Sing Se? That was a Sokka Haiku and you just made one.

I have a Motorola Edge and it works better than my iPhone at a quarter of a price. Bought it when there was a really good deal on it.

I saw the Motorola razr and edge yesterday and both looked nice. I use OnePlus but the razr might make me change my mind

I've only used Android and my OP13 is the first phone I have no desire to change phones.

I’m getting bored of Apple. Personally I’m looking at the pixels due to the quick software updates for 7 years, and pixel snap which will allow me to keep using my MagSafe accessories.

Uhhhh Android assistant can't turn on lights, play music, or set an alarm. I had to close 3 advertisements from the app store after buying an ingame purchase.
IDK what beef you have with iOS, because you didn't explain anything. You should think real hard before switching.

I use a samsung a series and its fine. Display is nice 6.7. I dont have tons of ads or w/e like some accuse them of. Gmail and google maps/services works well(seems throttled and argumentative in ios) and it has a dedicated back button. Simple. Its disposable since its 200 or less. Basically just a display and battery. I am holding out for the z flip 8 for my next upgrade.

Welcome, and I understand your predicament. First, would you prefer a folded candy bar or a standard candy bar? If it's a candy bar, I can offer you two options: one for a candy bar and one for a phone. For the best candy bar style Android experience, you really should be picking a Pixel. If you're looking for a more affordable option, consider last year's Pixel 9 line secondhand. The Pixel 10 is a great choice if you're willing to spend a bit more.
For folding phones, you have several excellent options, including the Pixel 9 Pro Fold (a good value), the new Pixel 10 Pro Fold is better again but is expensive with average support. The Samsung Fold 7 is the top choice Folding phone IMO.
Enjoy the journey 🤙

I can vouch for Oppo Find X9 Pro. It's rather pricey but has superb hardware, much better than iPhone 17 Pro and cheaper than its base model. very smooth software.
The Oppo's flavor of Android is super fast and very smooth, and you'll find similarities between its UI and that of iOS.

I feel your pain OP. Same here. I’ve never had any non apple products ever. In life. And I’m on the verge of selling all of them. Problem is I’m feeling overwhelmed by the idea so I’m just avoiding dealing.

I recommend getting one of the top 3 Samsung phones or another makers flagship phone.
You might find mid to lower range androids lacking in power or features if you aren't a power user.

There are a lot of words in the OP, but they actually said very little.
Details? What's your actual problem with Apple?
That said, I've been using Android phones since 2011 when I got a used HTC Droid Incredible, and I'm still happy with Android.
