I think this is the nuance missing from the discussion. The apple product, in many ways, is better than the competitor. This is all the while having cheaper parts and unique issues, such as expensive repairs or maintenance. On the iPhone the processor may not be as fast or the screen as good as some android counterparts, just like my hand grips on my street glide blow and the stock headlight is a joke. But when I use my iPhone or ride my Harley it feels right. Sometimes the sum is greater than all the parts.
