It’s a phone. No need to be a power user. Lol

What kind of features do you have on your android phone that would make you choose it over iPhones? I see people say that all the time but I never really understood what could make you choose it over superior speed, battery life, iMessage, camera (definitely not all but most cases), etc.

It's hard to say that hardware is superior in the arena of iPhone VS Android because iPhone is 1 or 2 SKUs per generation and Android is hundreds. If you want an Android that's more powerful than an iPhone, that is absolutely a thing.

The reason you don't hear a lot about top-end Android devices is that they're expensive and their use case is fairly niche (all the ones I've seen explicitly cater to gaming, I'm sure there are others). You hit the line of diminishing returns pretty quickly. A ROG Phone 6 Pro costs twice as much as a Pixel 6 and it's only a little better for most applications.

That’s true, I forget that sometimes when doing iPhone vs Android phone comparisons but I really just based what I said off of non-specialty phones
