Ah totally did not understand the purpose of your question lol now it’s clear.
Well the thing about android too is that cell makers also have unique android features. As you wrote Samsung dex which is only on Samsung phones.
Make sure to check by starting there. For example, choose a model/brand then research.
For Android I stick to Google Pixels. The call screening features are very useful and wish iPhone had them.
Let’s not turn this nice thread into a console war. You admitted you don’t use android.
As an android user, who’s used Samsung, google, htc, Motorola etc I would disagree with your statement but the beauty of android is that there is something for everyone! Not so much for iPhone, which is not a bad thing at all, it’s actually why it’s probably so optimized across the board with models and generations. Google is catching up, case in point look at their recent pixel 8 highlights.
Good luck with your research!
