I was anti-Apple, pro-pure Android (Nexus) phones since I quit using Blackberry years ago...until last October. Android no longer had the stability or feature advantages over iPhone. Multitasking, multi window support, local file exploring/storage, to pick a few, are all available on iOS now where they weren't when I adopted Android. I no longer need to root a phone to get tethering, iTunes isn't required for anything anymore, and all of the Microsoft and Google productivity/utility and other apps (SSH, Cacti, IP camera management, for the most part) that I use are available on the iPhone and work just as well there with the same integration as on my LG and Nexus phones.
To each their own--this is just a Pepsi/Coke/Ford/Chevy kind of debate--but where I didn't see iOS as an alternative before, I actually prefer it over Android today and haven't looked back. The iPhone X has been fantastic.
