    Apple user for work phone, Android for personal.

    Apple is very easy for the company to manage. Everything I need it to do, they have it set up properly and working without fiddling on my end.

    I don’t mind it at a work phone, but still probably wouldn’t get one for personal phone. I am not in love with the apple ecosystem. My Android takes more work to manage but the end result is much more customized to my preferences.

      I am not in love with the apple ecosystem.

      I feel This is not getting enough attention in this post.

      Edit:

      The monthlies :(

      itune subscription fee : $10 Apple tv: $9

      Let’s say you save and take the apple one, still, $20 every month! ($240 every year, recursively) On top of prepaid internet subscriptions!

      Am I the only one who’s seeing this?

        How is this relevant to anything at all? If you want a streaming music subscription, you can pay for one. If not, don’t. You can use any service you want on an iPhone, and you can likewise use Apple Music on an Android phone. The availability of services is just a totally separate issue.

            Of course you can. The iPhone never lost any of the basic features of the iPod and is perfectly capable of storing and playing DRM-free music in popular formats.
