Long-time iOS user considering switch to Android - Need advice on $1000 flagships (lemdro.id)

Title: Long-time iOS user considering switch to Android - Need advice on $1000 flagships

Body:

Hey everyone, I'm looking at phones around the $1000 price point and would love some input. I've been an iOS user for years but I'm seriously considering making the jump to Android this time.

Here's what I'm looking at:

iPhone 17 Pro - The safe choice since I'm already in the ecosystem

Samsung Galaxy S25 - Hearing good things about this generation

Pixel 10 Pro - Probably crossing this one off the list due to the stability issues I've been reading about (the 911 call failures, overheating problems, etc.)

Nothing Phone - The design looks really cool, but I'm not sure if they have anything in this price range

For those who've made the switch from iOS to Android (or vice versa), what would you recommend? Any major gotchas I should know about? And is the Nothing Phone even worth considering as a daily driver at this price point?

Thanks in advance!

Big question for me, in order to make any sort of educated suggestion: what are the reasons you're considering switching ecosystems?

Honestly I would be upgrading phones anyway and the experience on the apple side is feeling stale. Their software is getting less stable with each release, while the amount of crammed in features is going up. I will likely keep the stock software for compatibility reasons

I would at least consider the phones already listed as compatible with Graphene or Lineage, then you'll have the most options
