So true on the App Store. I read several stories each week about apps with malware or deceitful permissions/access in the Android store. I can also attest from using Android for over 5 years the app quality is levels below that of the iOS side. Amazing how different the exact same app can be on Android versus iOS. Fortunately, I made he switch 2 years ago and haven’t looked back; well maybe just to once or twice to gloat. 

...i made the switch to Android last year and haven't looked back

Not concerned with buggy OS, hamstrung apps, dated and bland user interface.

I thought I'd be dealing with a buggy and slow phone but to my surprise its far more stable than apple, or at least iOS 11

That's a lie.

You know this is very strong accusation, and I would be caful to make blunt statements like that. It is simply rude. Any proof it is a lie? If not then please tone down to acceptable discussion levels.

Also all those apps and services that you need to update database are ineffective because of abuse of numbers and identity for telemarketers. On top of that I still cannot understand why during installation they ask dumb question for permission to access my contacts. For Pete's sake I am installing this to block callers - not to give you knowledge who my contacts are. They should ask for acces to blocked numbers in the first place to extend database. What kind of solution is this?

This piece left two rhetorical questions drifting around in my head:

Why are manufacturers still using Micro-USB connectors instead of moving to USB-C?

If a $200 USB device is a "studio mic," what nomenclature do we use to describe a Schoeps CMC6 or Neumann U67?

Beacues USB-C is nice, but not adopted widely (some like FireWire/IEEE1394). On top of that there are restrictions in Europe and you cannot offer "standards" if they are not adopted widely. That is to prevent from creating accessories with non-standardized cables and have people discard old once just to promote new solution. That has been rendered as poluting planet with garbage. Now I see advantages of USB-C, but it needs better promotion in PC and mobile devices world. If you make Android devices that work with USB-C then it will help. Also USB-C is not compatible with many older devices running on older USB version. That would be no-no in Europe.

I can only laugh. You cannot make up this stuff.

We want a “durable” product. Not something “aged” in just a year.

These look quite durable. Try eBay.

And you think this joke is on the level. Right. Try something better. Actually I use Sennheisers that outperforms and outlasts Apple and while "old" it still has timless style. You may want to stick out your nose from Apple Store and go visit Sennheisser or Bang & Olufsen. Then we can talk.
