​Hey everyone! I daily drive a MacBook but need a new phone. I'm completely torn:

​iPhone 17e: The seamless ecosystem (AirDrop, Universal Clipboard) is super tempting, but a 60Hz screen in 2026 really hurts.

​Galaxy S26: The 120Hz display is a must for me (I play Genshin), and I actively need Android's freedom to sideload APKs for my drone tech work without any hassle.

​My questions for Mac + Android users:

• ​How painful is it to live without AirDrop and Handoff?

• ​What are your go-to apps for quick Mac-to-Android file transfers?

•​Is the 120Hz + Android freedom worth giving up the perfect Mac integration?

​Thanks for the honesty!
