That's very subjective. Certainly don't have the best keyboard, certainly don't have the best audio codec. Certainly don't have the best point and shoot cameras (see MHKBD blind test with 22 million votes sample size where it finished in seventh place. Losing to the Pixel 6a, the Pixel 7, the ZenFone 9, the s22 ultra, oppo, etc...).

Americans just really don't bother trying any other phones, 90% iPhone mostly because they'll be socially isolated if they don't. Apple massive marketing budget has done a good job creating the illusion that their products are superior.

Don't get me wrong on some ways their products are superior, they have the brightest screens, most powerful silicon usually, often loudest speakers. They have a reputation for having the best video although we haven't seen a proper test the way we have point and shoot photography.

But the operating system is so deeply limited it's almost like a toy. Can't download any apps you want but you could get any laptop or any Android phone.

Hell, you can't even use landscape mode on the home screen.

But this is unique to the United States, in every other part of the world, there is a lot more competition and Apple is just another brand.
