An iphone critique

I really like the Kindle app on my iPad. Browsing books is a lot easier in a web browser than in-app, anyway. The browser with an Amazon window already open is only two taps away.

Right. My iPad Pro, while I like it for what it is, has shown me there is enough annoyances with it that I’m not interested in getting an iPhone anytime soon.

Google Fi is in beta for iphones, but everything from Google is always in beta anyway. The big thing you’ll lose with an iphone on Fi is network switching. A call can’t seamlessly move from wifi to mobile data (or vice versa).

The absolute deal killer that keeps my phone an Android is that the only way to do desktop text messaging with an Iphone is to use a Mac. (Yes, there are various hacks to basically access iMessage desktop on a remote Mac from your local non-Mac, but they frequently stop working, and require a running Mac to exist, just not necessarily in front of you.)
