    It never ceases to amaze me how iPhone users think a bump in a version years down the road, keeps them secure while the browser in iOS needs whole god damn system update to upgrade.

    You wait for that patch for a Safari vulnerability for whenever Apple feels like it but Android devs can push patch and deploy within days or hours. And also sideload it, if a really important fix would take a long time through regular channels. And also there’s more than 1 browser engine on Android, so all users aren’t vulnerable to the same exploit at the same time.

    But hey, keep on swallowing that Apple marketing wholesale though.

      I’ve never bought any Apple product, you triggered ball of catpuke. I’m just pissed at Android manufacturers copying Apple without offering any pros of iPhone.

      5 year old iPhone still updates to latest iOS. Good luck trying to do that with 5 year old Android.

      Keep raging at the mere mention of Apple though. Sounds like a wonderful existence.

      Google also split Security Updates from main OS updates so that they can control and push them independently of the manufacturer. So you might miss out on fancy features from Android XX or whatever, but at least vulnerabilities will continue to be patched
