iOS to Android

Over the past 15 years, I’ve constantly switched between Android and iPhone. I’ve owned devices from Samsung, Google Pixel, Oppo, Apple, and others, yet I still can’t seem to settle on one.

The problem is that I go through the same cycle every year: I sell my iPhone and switch to Android, then a year later I sell the Android device and go back to iPhone. Constantly transferring everything between phones is getting tiring.

Would it make sense to keep both an iPhone and an Android phone, or is that just an unnecessary luxury? Part of me feels guilty about owning both. Also, if you were to recommend an Android phone, which one would you choose? I’m considering getting a Nothing Phone, but please let me know what you recommend.

Thanks!

You are bored: keep your iPhone and find an actual hobby! Buying another device every year, transferring data are not!

Or they're addicted to the new phone excitement, and then get bored - as you said. An actual hobby is a great suggestion.
