I care more about numerous bugs than I do about performance, to be honest. I'm starting to to regret not switching to Android last time I was upgrading my phone. Even if it is the same bugfest, at least I wouldn't have paid premium for the priveledge of using a device that "just doesn't work"

I need three new phones in close future for the family and I think I will go with Google Pixels and GrapheneOS. There is foldable phone available! It’s cheaper, I can deduct phones in full in the same year since the phones are <800€ before taxes (relevant probably only in Germany). And imho Apple’s premium promise is gone with glass design. Too many small errors.
