Wow, that's an intense level of myopia right there.

There are lots and lots (and lots) of people who don't need a Galaxy. Take my wife for example. Entirely happy (or as happy as you can with any contemporary portable computing device) with her old LG Aristo 5, it started failing a few weeks back, and we replaced it with a T-Mobile Revvl 6 Pro 5G. $219. Entirely adequate phone for her, and for most the people we know.

Yeah, I'm an old, and I don't personally use a cell phone of any kind.

No, the point was that if you don't want to choose between 100000 androids you buy the Galaxy which is the iPhone equivalent.

I don't know how anyone would interpret what you wrote in that way, but OK, fine.
