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?

I actually use magsafe with my Pixel 6 Pro. They sell adapters you can put on your case. I recently tried some of my magsafe stuff on a friend's Iphone and holy crap is it terrible on the Iphone. Not as strong is the only drawback but, it was significantly weaker

interesting! I didn’t know they made those. is it bulky at all? my fiancée uses a pixel 5a, i wonder if she would be interested in that.

i’m curious that you found the iphone magsafe to be weaker, in my opinion it’s just right, strong enough to hold, but not so strong that i struggle to take it off. were you using it directly on the iphone or did the iphone have a case on it? it might not have been a magsafe compatible case. but i’m speculating of course.
