I've been a neutral bystander in the "whose device is best" wars since it was a competition between Apple II and/or Macintosh and PC clones with DOS. For 40 years I've used whatever was cheapest or a free hand-me-down.
If you had told me I'd find a new reason in 2024 to prefer Apple stuff over more open designs, I'd have scoffed.
But if there's one company I trust above all others to design to such a tight standard that there isn't room inside a phone for three grams of explosive, it's Apple.
