Say what you want about apple, but this is why they are winning. They don’t jump the gun, they don’t go home early, they stick with it consistently.
They are no more expensive than Samsung. So, other than the walled garden app ecosystem keeping all the malware out, whattcha got?

Say what you'd like about Google and Android, I'm not exactly singing their praises or anything, but I don't think that's possible with Apple.

You can. The subscription services are optional and mostly geared towards lazy bastards like myself. I could manually back my phone up to any Mac or windows machine but I pay for the convenience of iCloud storage instead. The other subscription services are purely entertainment driven (Music, TV+, Arcade, etc.) and not required to have a fully functioning device.

Apple has messed around a lot with its phone payment plans in recent years, though. It's not clear whether they really want to become a bank or not.
