Nobody but the Apple trolls is comparing the iPhone to Android in this thread, which is only about how many times you buy that same iPhone. The main question is whether you buy the iPhone 1-1/2 times... or twice. More "accessories" are needed for iPhones simply because all iPhones lack most basic functionality which you then have to scramble to buy back. For example, you have to scramble to account for the missing aux jack. Apple isn't stupid. Apple knows they make more money by limiting your choices on accessories. Apple also knows by limiting your choices on storage, you pay far more. There's a lesson to be learned here... Add up your subscription costs and that 1-1/2 iPhone cost goes up to 2X. Hence... The main reason Apple is so profitable is you buy every iPhone ~twice.
