It’s funny how so many Apple users insist their Apple device does everything they want, until Apple releases a new update that does something more that other devices have had for years, and then they’re not just using it all the time but boasting about it.
One of the most classic examples was Copy/Paste or Apps. I remember so many Apple users telling me that Copy/Paste was unnecessary on an iPhone or that WebApps were good enough (something I completely disagreed with) only to see them change their tune completely once Apple released those functionalities.
I remember how 5G was supposed to be an albatross of a feature until Apple released their phones supporting 5G.
Or how digital pens weren’t needed at all, until Apple released an iPad with a digital pen and then it was just raves about how digital pens are awesome.
How can one forget larger screens! I remember how 3.5” was THE perfect phone screen size and now you can’t even buy a phone that size from Apple.
Multitasking!
I’ve tried switching to Android but never been successful. I simply don’t like it and enjoy iOS too much. That doesn’t mean I need to be blind to all the missing iOS functionality and pretend my I wouldnt be happier if they weren’t missing. I just find that the upsides are more than worth the downsides. That doesn’t mean I need to pretend those downsides don’t exist.

Isn't that normally the case? You have a device that does X you're happy with, and they add a new feature. You didn't know how useful it would be, so you're excited and show it off. I'd imagine there are plenty of examples of his with Android, or your favourite car brand or all sorts of things.
