Other than blue bubbles, why do you use iPhone? (lemmy.world)

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?

My iPad from 2015 is still getting all the updates. It's wild.

Exactly.

Owning Apple products feels less wasteful, somehow. I don’t replace them often.

Yeah I think iPad's are clearly better than any android tablet.

[–] AlexWIWA@lemmy.ml 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah I don't like Apple. Though unfortunately, the iPad is the only useful consumer tablet imo. Android tablets seem to only be good for like integrated uses like a construction tablet with custom software.

And i would love my Ipad even more if i could have the option to install a custom rom to have the customization options that i just loose with ipados

I just want my Nintendo DS emulator back on my iPad :(

Soon, with the next IOS update everyone in the EU will be able to install apps from third party stores

[–] AlexWIWA@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I am so excited for that
