   Again, if you only use the iPhone for basic things like playing games, then   
   you won't notice how debilitating the walled garden truly is when you want   
   to do things that everyone else does without even thinking about doing it.

   The number of things that every operating system except iOS does that iOS   
   doesn't do is so large that it's debilitating to use an iPhone after you've   
   used Android with any other operating system, including Linux & Windows.

   What if you want to plug any phone you want into any Windows or Linux PC   
   you want where you can copy files back and forth to anywhere you want?   
      
   Every other operating system can do that except iOS.
