Some people ride a Honda, some people ride a Harley. Some people drive a
Chevy, some people drive a BMW.
I think it was you that even said "If the price was the same, everyone
would be using an iPhone"... which I honestly believe. I have used a
brand new Samsung phone with Android, and the first thing I noticed is
that the screen response is not the same as an iPhone... it's not as
smooth, or as refined. Yes, it works... it scrolls and it zooms and
resizes, just like a Chevy gets you from Point A to Point B... but if a
BMW was the same price as a Chevy, 99% of the population would be
driving BMW.
Just my thoughts. :)

I will point out (again) that 8 to 9 of 10 smartphones on the planet
are Android. So while making it "elegant" is important, it's probably
more important to make it affordable.
My Nexus phone is a damn fine phone, and I don't feel like I've been
left out of anything at all.

It's taken a while, many years, but Google has finally admitted that
Apple had it right all along... you have to control the hardware AND
software to have an awesome product. This was Steve Job's goal from
the very beginning with the Macintosh... and now everyone else is
finally understanding.
So now Google is copying everything Apple does... even down to the
marketing materials. Every commercial they run (along with Samsung
and everyone else) is always "this is why our product is better than
Apple". If a company really believes that, you don't have to make the
direct comparison. LOL
