I don't know.

The other problem that I had with an iPhone is that there is no support for somebody that uses Linux as their desktop OS, which is what I use.

Finally, just my opinion "I" anything seems to be a "hipster" kind of thing, at least in my experience.  I stopped being "hip" 20+ years ago.

Generally in the same boat. I hate the forced nature of that good forsaken iTunes. I haven't had an iPhone since the 5, so I wasn't sure if the updates were anything significant, and from what I could tell, they weren't. It may have a faster processor, but that's about it. The S8 is significantly sleeker and comfortable in my hand. Plus, Android. 

Literally the only real issue I have with Samsung phones is the pre-installed bloatware and their stupid "TouchWiz" interface. I'm honestly surprised they haven't offered a bare bones model yet, though that's the appeal of the Pixel
