Also, I get iOS updates when they are released. On my note, I could wait for over a year. HATED that. Also, most of my friends and all of my family have iPhones and the integration with everyone is simply better. FaceTime is superior. iMessage is superior. Find my iPhone is superior. Find friends is superior. Camera is superior. There just wasn't anything noteworthy about my note that I would consider remotely close to iOS much less "better".
Most of the time when people complained about not being able to customize an iPhone, they just wanted different icons. Basically, people liked the aesthetic change. I'm not 16 any more and I'm well past the ability to change how it looks and more into the ability to seamlessly integrate across all of my iOS devices and work very well. Apps are vetted and work. iPhone apps are not the same as iPad apps and aren't the same as Mac apps.
Not to get into a pissing match but i'll disagree. A lot of differences come down to which specific phone you have and not always the OS. My best experience with android has been on Project Fi. The main reasons people like iphones is the integration aspect, even though iOS doesn't have a majority market share in the world or United States. Take find my iphone vs android. On android I can find my phone on a map, make it ring, lock the phone, log out of all my accounts, and even erase the device all from my computer or another phone. I can set up multiple profiles on the same phone if I need to let someone use it. Lets say I don't have my phone or it breaks. I can send and receive texts, answer phone calls, and make calls from any device that has hangouts (laptop, tablet, desktop, etc). The camera is debatable depending on the actual phone you are talking about. Everything is integrated just like it is for iOS via the google eco system. And yeah you can customize your phone far more than an iPhone. Its not style either. There are legitimate function benefits to widgets and the like. Somethings are pretty equal though. It's slightly related so go ahead and mention that google customer service is pretty damn good too. In reality I would say one is far superior to the other. You just have to pick the OS that works best for your individual needs and wants.
Also I noticed you did not include iMaps in your list of superior things.
