One data point on this whole debate around Apple walled garden. It's basically my own opinion, not a blank statement. It won't be very popular here but whatever. Here it goes:
The reason why I'm personally sticking with the iPhone is exactly the walled garden. I had a 3G, the 5, and now the 8 for last 5 years (there goes the argument about buying a new phone every year). I bought all of them knowing very well what I'm getting into and I want it to remain that way. If I didn't want a walled garden, I'd get an Android phone.
