I love the pixel tbh, mostly because android but also WAY less bloatware compared to the Samsung I had prior.
And I totally get the music app argument, I guess that isn't something I considered as I don't make music and have a Spotify subscription through Google play lol.
Edit: it's more like a PC, and I dislike the way iOS holds my hand like a fucking child. I hate navigating iOS, I hate that it has its own apps and whatnot. I like android because I can do more customisation, more intuitive to me to navigate
The last paragraph speaks to me on a deep level lol
I can check my torrent queue, setup a access to a fileshare etc so easily where I still can't get my sort of old iPad to even recognise a network drive lol
That's exactly how I feel regarding ios. But as a professional music development platform it's the only game in town.
Might just grab an ipad pro and stay with android for a phone. If I'm staying with android I won't bother upgrading my phone.
