Yes, I'm the one in the group DM that turns the bubbles green, I'm sorry.

But other than that, I don't hear many other reasons why people actually prefer iPhones over Androids. What other reasons are there?

Because ive been sucked into the Apple universe (except my laptop. I just can’t).

Plus, and honestly more importantly, you take it out of the box and it just works.

Oh, and I can’t stand/understand googles UI no matter how hard I try. It’s just not I that I’ve to me.

I've never taken an android out of the box and it not work. Not sure what that statement even means.
