You can include your phone specific model if you want.
I just got a Samsung Galaxy S23, switching from an iPhone 11, because I kinda fear that Apple might turn evil and start banning apps from the app store. I mean I knew about how restrictive iOS was but I kinda just justified it by the increased security that I perceived it to be. But recent events made me realize a corporation can turn from mildly annoying to full-on evil very quickly. With Android, I have the option of avoiding the Google Play Store if they start to do weird things with it. So that’s my story, what about you?
Android, because a) I planned to do some app programming and b) I didn’t want to step into Apple’s walled garden and Microsoft couldn’t be relied upon to stick with it (and didn’t).
Samsung because it’s pretty much the only player that isn’t a Chinese company.
