Apple's ACTUAL software update is only the first 2 years; the next 3 years is actually 'planned obsolesce' update to encourage users to buy new '5-year-software-support' iphone crap.
For example, Anyone who still hold iphone 6 series know that the last 'actual' software update for theirs is iOS 10, which means 2 YEARS SOFTWARE UPDATE (or lower, in case of 6s series)!
Everyone knows how atrocious iOS 11, then iOS 12 only make it worse.
Dunno about iOS 13, as every iphone 6 users that I know didn't dare to be beta-tester of Apple's.

iOS 14 will actually make me switch from Android for the first time in my life.
OS support for devices is just so much better...

IOS has stuff that android right now doesn't have either. For example, actually supported apps: you can't even utilize zoom or native AI image proccesing on instagram even if your phone supports it(for android).
Also looks like you were such in a rush to post android biased comments that you put 2 "K"s in "Blackk".

1000 dollar garbage for ancient features.

Unless they give a proper file manager, a secure folder like Samsung & a call recording option, it will never be able to switch an android user like me.

With 300 dollar android, I can get 5G & good camera, and excellent battery life.
And I can get another new phone after 2 years with better feature, better battery efficiency.

Without using it how can we vote? At least iOS users? By looking at screen shots we can’t assume it’s useless or it’s functionalities. Let beta testers can reveal

I don't know how much sense this poll will make, iOS wise most people here seems to dislike iPhones and Android wise most think Xiaomi is a god. (I like other android brands more but that's me)

Most of the people who had bad experience with android bought 100-250 euro android phones and were wondering why they dont work. And then bought a 700-1000€ (because there is no cheap iphone) iphone and became fanboys. They should have bought a good 500-700€ android they would not have had bad android experiences. It all depends on the phone you buy. If you buy cheap you will get a terrible phone

It’s good enough for people to keep their old phones as well as for those poor souls who are stuck on android to finally make the switch to the best ecosystem that exists. :)
Many of the people who will comment here are probably android users who are secretly unhappy with their droids and cannot help but envy us iOS users so they come to iOS topics all the time to try get attention. :)
With the iPhone SE being so cheap and iPhone 11 being so well balanced in price and spec, finally you droid users can come over with iOS 14 also bringing features you wanted. :)
