Old stories and falsehoods.
If you get pure Android (lots of choices; just none of them are
"Samsung").
Updates are regular and seamless, backup/restore is also easy;
almost transparent.
Pure Android is the same everywhere.
2 x macs
2 x iphone
2 x iPads.
Android is too segmented. An app works on one device but not another. One
vendor provides software updates, another decides they are going to stop
updating.
Samsung and many others throw so much crap on Android it’s not even like
Android.
Backup and restore
Our house is 100% Android. I have a Chromebook, which runs
android apps in a VM, and it makes a pretty decent tablet when I
convert it to tablet mode. I do have a 9-year-old ipod, but I
don't think that counts; don't really use it anyway. Most of my
friends have
Between the wife and I we have 7 devices. Of which we each have an android
and iOS phone. She has an android tablet, I have an iPad and an Amazon Fire
tablet. Based on what I see my clients have iOS is well in the lead. Those
that do have android have Samsung’s. Tablets are 90% iOS.

That's surprising, I wouldn't have guessed that IOS was more popular than
Android in the US. I would've guessed it was closer to 60/40 the other way.

OK. I had the worldwide ratio pretty close, but I had no clue
about the US. In the US it's pretty much 60:40 in favor of IOS. In
the rest of the world it's all over the map. India is 90:10 in
favor of Android, while Canada looks close to 50:50.
Details here:
You may be looking at a symptom as a metric. You may happen to be poking
around more often on a customer network because Apple centric customers
consume more support time. The gear is just more problematic. And since
they openly do things like updates that kill batteries, aplle devices are
rotated
Worldwide, Android has an 80% share, give or take. That makes it
4:1 in favor of Android.
The US is different, and I'm pretty sure Android is still more
popular, but not as much. I have not seen, or maybe I don't
remember what the ratio is.
