reality of being a united frequent flyer

I am seeing great strides in united and i am impressed as hell! the best TV's with the best ease-of-use, the best interiors and new airplanes, and i am blown away from their new 787 and their catering improvements. my mom flew sna-sfo and she loved the flight attendants. I am debating between AAdvantage and MileagePlus, what is the reality of having united as your go-to airline?

Is new united really as glamorous as the reviewers say? I am from socal, so my primary airprorts are LAX and SNA and ONT.
Edit: id like to ask, what does it take to get to the top tier status?
Edit 2: honestly I’m sold on abandoning AAdvantage and jumping onto united. AA is generous about handing status and upgrades but I doubt it’s worth going through their abysmal main cabin service first, for first class upgrades no tv and flagship which isn’t really comparable to other airlines especially foreign airlines.
Edit 3: okay yeah, glamorous is an overstatement for a us airline, but ya get the point, United’s technology and hard product has seriously improved over the past 5 years.
