Literally no current phone gives me that feeling, android, apple, or otherwise.
I just can't the apple ui so I don't, and I feel ill when fanglorbs praise me for having an iphone. Why does that even happen. Android is untrust so I use graphene but it has a lot of tradeoff. Pure Linux phones are still far from ready both hardware and software.
Early iphones were cool because everything actually was new. When android custom ROM devs started making cool new features that after a year or two became new iphone features praised as being never been done before I couldn't see them as the status symbol all the street thugs in my area considered them to be.
Meanwhile Android phone makers ditched microsd on all flagship level phones and massively overpriced the permanent storage to be almost if not just as bullshit as apples pricing.
At this point I just want a smallish phone I can one handedly reach my thumb over the whole screen without carpel tunnel, microsd or honestly even nvme phone thickness could be half an inch and I wouldn't mind, I don't use 3.5 jack anymore so w.e to that, some OLED variant with at least 70hz refresh, no rounded screen edges so tempered glass actually can be used, and a fingerprint reader that isn't shit. Given several of these exist on different phones it's not like it would be a big ask but all the manufacturers, or their suits at least, are irredeemably stupid and people just keep making them money anyway.
