Don't buy an iPhone then. I used to be all about customizing my phone, but when the "Phone" app on my android crashed repeatedly while trying to call 911 in an emergency, I now only want a locked-down and stable piece of hardware as my phone.

Similar feelings here. I switched after becoming frustrated by having a phone that so often failed at basic phone things. Turn by turn nav silently ending because I switched to the browser, having a phone call crash because I accidentally opened Snapchat - and that’s before approaching the eldrich nightmare that was trying to run a video call. This was on a “flagship” Samsung Android phone and I have heard the OS is better and more stable now but honestly, I just don’t see a reason to risk it, especially given the switching costs associated.
