(I ended up wiped/deleted this comment, but it's original contents stated that I had upgraded my drawer-android-phone to a S23 last year from another 3-4 year old Samsung device, and that I wasn't sure what to say here. I deleted the comment because, I don't have the energy to debate)

I don't deny it might feel foreign to someone using iOS daily for decades. But that's not the statement. The statement was that iOS does things like upgrades, backup restoration, and value retention better, which just isn't true anymore.

I use both, actually, because Android tablets in my experience have been pretty disappointing, so I'm pretty familiar with both ecosystems.

As I said, I'm not sure what to say. I've done both cases, a transfer and restoration, and had issues with both where some app data didn't copy over. Maybe I should prioritize getting a Pixel device as my next Android fiddle-phone.

Contacts, photos, settings were mostly fine (though I did not do an exhaustive audit, but I'll give it credit here).
