I'm an Apple user. I just bought a Xiaomi Redmi 5. I cannot believe how good android is right now!

I just wanted a spare phone which ran android but I'm completely blown away by how good a budget android is right now.

Stable frame rate, no frame drops, fast, sleek UI, abundant privacy settings, great screen, fast fingerprint scanner, very few bugs, great battery life. All this for less than half the price of an iPhone 6 right now.

I'm genuinely shocked. I don't think there's much of a difference between iPhones and android devices now, other than camera quality (which high end android phones are good at). I'm so impressed.

(I can't migrate to android full time though. There are no great android tablets right now and the chromebook scene is a little confusing)

Is it even worth it to go for a removable battery device when you cant find a replacement a couple of years after you purchase it? What do you think/prefer? PS. I realize this is not exactly fault of android OS, but ...
