I don’t like it, can I disable it? Much more often I mean to press it and it isn’t pressed than I didn’t mean to and this feature helped…

iOS has much less feature, it’s a different mentality, a lot of things here you will just need to accept it’s how it is as opposed to android where if you don’t like it you change it so you do like it.

Annoying for me as well, I will probably switch back to android once they have a similarly small factor phone that has a camera I like, for now there is none.

But this annoyance is less worrisome for me because at the end of the day, even though it makes little sense and will be more difficult you will remember for each app you use, what is the random back gesture that was chosen for each window.

And yes the system is slower in terms of animations, I heard people explaining it as apple wanting you to “feel the weight”, this might be an excuse but it makes me feel better because I do feel the phone is more buttery, slow but buttery smooth than android which is quick and functional

Besides what you said, smoother animations on iOS, face id (compared to fingerprint) and camera I like better, but that’s subjective.

Other than that, android is a far superior operating system. Besides things it simply does better like notifications and device input (keyboard, cursor management, copy&paste) android simply has more features available.

If you will notice people who say iOS is better, other than what I mentioned they can’t have concrete examples, they say passwords, “it just feels better”, “it just works”, “its more polished”. But it’s easy to give concrete examples of the advantages of android:

Just a few examples of features android has and iOS doesn’t: true caller id support, notification history, separate alarm and call volume, control over messaging app which gives abilities such as automatic spam filtering, notification history view, infinite call history log, can sort camera images automatically into a dedicated folder/album (this one is a mess in iOS), controlling different types of notifications per app, consistent back gesture, and the list goes on…

Also most things you want to do can simply be done with less steps and friction on android. There are many examples but one example is if you get a notification from an app, you can get from this notification straight into the notification configuration of this app.
