I agree with most of what you said. But the way "low" cost (not "lower" cost, which is the wording I'd use) is used to describe a $430 phone with these specs is a little disingenuous to me. Maybe it's not that this thing is cheap, but that spending $800+ on phones for the average person is absolutely ridiculous.
It bothers me that Apple has so much mindshare among the public that people only judge their phones/devices in comparison to Apple devices, while ignoring any non-Apple options.

There’s actually a lot of hidden cost to switching platforms. For me there are 2: 1. I hate Google more than I hate Apple (irrelevant for most people) 2. I’m balls deep in Apple’s ecosystem. Never mind the hardware. All paid apps? Gone. All in-app purchases? Gone. Everything you’ve bought on iTunes store? Difficult to access.
