i switched to android a few month ago, still can't find a good enough pdf viewer, modern ebook reader, reminder app that is modern and syncs with whatever service i want (not only google). i mean stuffs that is preinstalled on every iphone and available for free. and people wonder why others buy iphone ?

People buy iphone despite being it so locked down, expensive, hard to repair, having a thunderbolt port. because the alternative is even worst.

but you can get an Android phone with similar specs for the same or less of a cost.

i did the mistake of buying chinese xiaomi 12 phone, 100$ less than iphone mini but god this sucks ass. It's awesome for the kid playing video game because of its processor watercooled whatever the fck but people who need simple phone to do work quick ? fck that.
