> While the meme of "iPhone is better than Android because iPhone can do X" while Android has been able to do X for over 2 years no longer applies

It applied as recently as 2020 with iOS 14 releasing picture in picture video, which Android has had since 8 in 2017.

Don't have to go back that far. iPhone 14 Pro is the first iPhone with always on display. Although I guess Android wasn't first with that either.

Ah true, I remember colleagues being in awe of it, me checking what the hell they're talking about, and being surprised this is a new feature.

Similarly to that, I saw people in awe that when you receive a token via SMS on iPhone it allows you to copy it without opening the message. Something that Android also already had since before. In Android's case it even writes it on the app automatically without the need to do anything at all
