If you're not paying for numbers, what are you paying for then? What reason could there be to pay $400 for a 2022 iphone that doesn't provide anything that a $400 android from 5 years ago doesn't?

Well I’m not paying for ram. Obviously everything is subjective but iOS is better than android, better camera, better eco system, better privacy and security, better battery life over time, better lifetime support, etc etc etc.

iPhone runs well on 3gb, 4gb, 6gb. It’s far more optimised than android.

The same cannot be said for android. Over time lack of ram cripples it.

the battery life on the new SE is dreadful from day 1. Everything else is broadly true.
