I do not get why anyone would want to jailbreak an iPhone. If you do not like the walled garden, why not switch to another platform?

  Because we want both openness and the iPhone, and are unwilling to compromise.

    what does the iPhone offer that makes it compelling to not get a different device?

      The hardware is just better. The software that Apple has designed works really well, and makes the hardware shine way better than any other device. I've used Droid 1 2009-2011, Galaxy Nexus 2011-2013. The hardware/software synergy is just much better on the iPhone.

      It's a high end phone that isn't 26" diagonally so it fits in my hand and I can type with one thumb. And Apple's after sales support is excellent. iPhone doesn't work properly? Factory reset. Still doesn't work? They'll swap the iPhone, in-store.
