I asked if people chose iPhone for the blue bubbles elsewhere a couple days ago, and while there was some good discourse on that post, the blue bubbles definitely also came up as a reason.

In my experience, when people find out my texts are green, they oftentimes would rather switch to a different platform altogether like Instagram or just not text at all.

Is this actually a deal-breaker in friendships out there?

    What brand were the phones? That makes a huge difference.

      Motorola Droid Razr Maxx and Samsung Galaxy S5

      I understand that these devices are from years ago and things may have changed since then, but I have friends who still run into odd OS glitches on their new Pixel phones

        I have a Pixel now, it’s pretty great. I used to manage Samsungs for work and I absolutely hated them. Samsung tries to replace as much Google stuff with their own crappy stuff. I’ve never touched a Motorola. I now manage iPhones for work so I see all the weird problems they can have too.

        They both have their pros and cons.
