“The one that really jumped out at me was this idea that parents don’t want to get their kids Android phones if they have Apple phones" 🤣🤣🤣🤣 i’m sorry, but who came up with that, google? i can’t even imagine parents with apples buying androids for their kids, nor vice versa. how silly.
i do agree that texting and other basic phone functions should of course be interoperable.
Yeah, I wouldn’t get my kid something I am not personally well versed in. My parents learned that the hard way by failing to stay ahead of me in knowing how to use Windows, back when we had 98, and 2000, and Vista, etc. I’m grounded, you’re locking the computer? Safe mode with networking it is, I’ll print my pornographic images after they download in 10 minutes.
My mom just laughs anytime my kids misbehave. I guess I have it coming.

There are a lot more cheap Android options. I wouldn’t want to get a kid a pricey iPhone for their first smartphone.
My kids get my hand me downs.
Cheapest iPhone is $430.
Being tied into FindMy is probably worth that, especially for parents.
You can get a new android under $200. And google has their own feature to locate their phones.
Ok. Which is a current iPhone owner more likely to buy.
The juice isn’t worth the squeeze before we even get into how many years of updates that $200 phone is gonna get vs the cheapest iPhone.

I despise any corporate apologists and fanboys. The fact that people complain about interoperability issues tells you many reject your idea.
The way Apple is going, my next phone will probably be a FairPhone that operates Android.
Google is way better than Apple for sure.
Sadly Fairphone isn’t that fair as it isn’t sold in the countries it sources its materials and labor from. Heck of a marketing trick if you ask me.

A ruggered Android phone cost about 200 € and there are also under 100 € android phones.
As a first phone for a kid is more than enough, given how it will be treated
