I've seen a number of the transitions he saw a couple years ago, but an almost equal number coming back now. Many I know that switched, are now coming back, realizing that "cute customizations don't offset the fact things just work better on iOS" (not looking to get in a debate, just repeating what they said).

I personally switched from an iPhone 4S to an HTC One M7 for the bigger screen size, but I switched back after less than 6 months because I couldn't get over the lack of consistency in the Android experience. There were duplicate apps with different design styles, multiple text messaging apps, etc. I found I had more choices in general on Android, but it was rare to find an option that I was completely satisfied with.
If I decide to go back to Android, I would only get a Nexus device with stock Android. That may fix the majority of my complaints with Android.
I really like my Nexus 6P (GoogleFi edition). It's a great phone all around. Better than my 6S, no, but it's definitely a very good quality phone and one I'd recommend if someone hated iOS.
