I personally like iPhone because the camera is just way better and it's easier to use. I've had Android before but the quality is just choppy and it has a bunch of extra features I just don't need. Although I know it's a better phone, but not when you don't need any of it.
Android, all day more versatility with the platform should be a option of android vs ios since that's the platform iphone uses and android is a platform android phones use .
A lot of people would say that android is better, one of the reasons being its way more customizable than the iPhone. But I prefer the iPhone for reasons just like yours, its way simpler.
