On the flip side, mu iBrother made the transisiton to Android about a year ago. His major pain points were: - no iMessage. It's not particularly good or different compared to whatsapp, Skype, Messenger... but it's not available on Android and people are used to it. - in case of an issue, the solution is brand+model-specific. For some reasons he wanted a Notifications widgets, you get that differently for a Samsung or a Huawei (or you get an app). - it takes some effort to extract max. benefits from the switch. At a basic level things are very similar, but if you want to really make the most of either platform, you need to dig into things. As often, the hard part is not googling up how to do something, but simply discovering something is possible at all. Yes, you can hook up some phones directly to a monitor over the USB-C port. Or put a DAC on them. And use almost all xbox/PSx BT/USB Gamepads.
