On no, Android vs IOS that's almost a religious discussion :)
I switched from iPhone to Android years ago and wouldn't go back. That being said most of the reasons I had at the time no longer apply. There is very little difference these days and it's more of a personal preference thing.
If the camera is your big thing and you don't want to make the switch, I know my wife is happy with her Galaxy S7 after hating the camera on the 4, 5 and 6. I have the S8 and it seems fine to me but I'm not a big camera user. I hear the note 8 has an excellent camera if you like a big expensive phone.
I hear a couple of the Chinese manufacturers, Huawei for example, are making great phones with excellent cameras recently. A friend of mine got the OnePlus 5T and says it's Samsung quality without the high price tag. These are not available everywhere though.
oohh ill have to look into those others that might be a good alternative!! :) camera is a huge deal to me! I got my phone I have now because it supposedly had a great camera and have been so displeased :(
