I always went with Android growing up but went with Apple once I was on my own phone plan. This decision was based around getting the most software support for the cost. I found that I could buy a refurbished iphone 13 mini for roughly 300$ and still have 5 years of security updates after they stop selling the 13. That longevity for the price is hard to get with android.

Its been a few months, and honestly I’m not a fan of the UI or apple’s way of doing things, but it’s a functional phone.

At the worst point of my life I indeed had a shower crunch wrap after a brutal graveyard shift. This is the answer.
