I was a long time iOS user from the 3G to the 5S. At that point I decided to try the Pixel 1 and I really preferred the Android experience. It's clear that the quality of the UX is subjective and it takes a little time to get used to the nuances of a new OS but 18 months on I'm still very happy with the move to Android.

The main concern I have is for device lifetime. It's hard to know anything more than an anecdote until a particular model is too out of date for the information to be useful but my Pixel broke within a year. I was given a free replacement under warranty but I don't have that same feeling of long-term hardware lifetime I got from Apple.
