I like my iPhone because it's simple

Why is complexity considered a virtue with regards to consumer technology if the end result is the same?

I've never understood that concept.

I think at it's core, the Apple hate from Android users amounts to insecurity. They want to be the cool guy that can show people how to do things and feel smart. That is a good feeling, I admit. I used to be the tech savvy guy that would help people figure stuff out until the last couple of years when now even grandma has a smart phone. It stung a little to not be the tech guy. Normal people did what I wanted them to always do and they got with the program. Apple had a ton to do with this good thing.

It's like a Android nerds want to artificially promote something that is not user friendly so they can be the guy that knows something others do not and boost their ego. It's bizarre.

I am not unfamiliar with Android. As a matter of fact, I use an Android tablet 8 hours a day as it was forced on me by my job.

I find it to be, for lack of a better term, a piece of shite. It is a Samsung tablet.
