I asked if people chose iPhone for the blue bubbles elsewhere a couple days ago, and while there was some good discourse on that post, the blue bubbles definitely also came up as a reason.

In my experience, when people find out my texts are green, they oftentimes would rather switch to a different platform altogether like Instagram or just not text at all.

Is this actually a deal-breaker in friendships out there?

    The first time my wife saw a picture taken by my phone, on my phone, she was blown away. She thought all android cameras suck because that’s what Apple wants them to believe. Her mind was blown that I actually had a way better phone camera than her.

    It quickly became, “let me borrow your phone for this picture, then you can upload it for me.” Yet she still refused to leave apple

      And then you sent it to her over imessage, it comes through in 120*160 pixels and that’s how she thinks Android phones take pictures?

      Can I ask what phone you have? Is it a pixel? I used to have a pixel and switched to Samsung and miss the picture quality.
