Performance, battery life, dependence on Google, inconsistent UIs from different manufacturers, bloatware from networks, networks control updates, most phones don't even get much in the way of updates.

This is silly considering you can de-Google an Android phone. You can't de-Apple an Apple phone.
I have a 2 year old mid-level Android and have had 0 performance issues or crashes (aside from Android Auto).
Need a quick photo? Is maps giving you a direction? Oh let me freeze up! Let me hide the soft keyboard until you restart! Let me get into a bootloop!
Or rather, stuttering was the bigger problem in those cases. I’m sure the geek scores were similiar in raw performance
But even with that "feature sharing", Android's flagship phone still feels like more of a knockoff compared to any iPhone.
Having owned every Pixel and the Nexus predecessors, they have about a 3 year lifespan, software is slow and freezes start after a few updates, the battery isn't great to start but shits out after year 2, then oled burn-ins.
But I got $5 for my Nexus 6P bootloop class action settlement, so there's that I guess...
