Haha actually I'm using most of the iPhones models, just last year I skip it go for xiaomi mi mix 2, found that Android phone battery not last for after few months later.

Then this time back to XS max for my wishlist with dual sim card to throw me back on iOS.

To me whatever I paid on Iphone XS Max it's worthy for all my times.

1. Camera image quality
2. Bigger screen and battery
3. UI make it more faster than Android
4. Fast charged with PD.
5. More choices on accessories than android phone.
6. Better resale value.

yeah.. resell value.. its definitely the highlights for iOS.. android.. really no hope.. note 9.. drop less than 2.8? sad..

Just came back to office from Pyramid. Most of the people looking around in Machines are youngsters below 20 I guess. Didn't see any customer at the counter meaning that no one is buying when I am there lol

everyone seems very excited to get Mate 20 pro.. after a few used android devices.. finally back to iOS.. somehow rather, i still think iOS is till the most up kept 2nd hand value in the market...

For android, tons of features, tons of gimmick.. however.. few days after the havoc.. price will started to drop.. and im so wonder why all the branded first tier android flagship will encounter this problem..

Tired of losing so much investing in phone.. and decided to back iOS.. although i will miss the direct download from any website or any files.. however, i still prefer the stability of the apps in iOS..

Hope i didnt make the wrong choice to back to iOS.. LOL..
And there's always people said S and A will die and blah blah.. LOL.. but ended up... iOS still survive with its own strong will... Most importantly.. iPhone doesnt jump into price fight with android..

They always want to overhead of iOS. but still the EMUI not very great.. no doubt their camera is top notch now.. BUT.. i seldom take pic at night.. so im fine.. smile.gif

They just trolled Apple and Samsung on Twitter

I was in the same situation like you also. I was android user between 2012 to 2016. Then I changed to Iphone as my primary phone for  2 years between 2016 to 2018. I was thinking i might save money by making Iphone as my primary phone so no need to swap too many android phone.But I still buying android phones during that time cos IOS is quite boring even though very smooth & stable. In April this year I already made samsung s9+ as primary phone and in September swap to Note 9 as my primary phone. My IP8 Plus only as backup phone now biggrin.gif

i changed note 9 to iOS.. coz my iphone was iphone 7 plus i think.. thats why to me.. this MAX.. macam very yes... although i still havent started to use.. LOL

But just take noted, wireless charging will kills the battery health.

Especially when while charging, take the phone up and put it back to continuously charge like no tomorrow.

Such as my colleague his ipX battery life already drop till 82% almost one year only.

He always charge when he works
