Longer support period. Easier to tell if you're getting a "good" phone since there's only a few models. I use Android phones, but that last points almost dragged me in a few times after getting disappointing phones. Edit

VPS providers (probably) aren't in the business of extracting value from my web traffic like a VPN company is. And I already have relationships with VPS providers, I don't have to "mail cash" to some company I don't
