I’m interested in learning app development for Android devices, and I’d like to test the apps in a physical device, but my phone is an iPhone.

Which phone model or brand do you recommend for it? Are there some general ideas for choosing a device?

A used Google Pixel or Samsung Galaxy should be pretty cheap. Just make sure they support whichever version of Android you want to develop on. Pixel 6's are under $200 USD on eBay currently and should all be upgradable Android 14.
