I cant say I have ever watched any TV on my Android devices.
However I'm always astound by the breadth of free practical software on the Android store.
Its on a different planet in useful functionality available.
Have IOS users ever started a thread to moan about the severe limitiations/software bans that have been there since day 2007?

An interesting question is are 'proprietary limited lifespan accessories really wanted for Android?'.

I noticed that the Sony Smartwatch has gone 'open source'.
That is what makes for hot hardware so it was an original bad move by Sony.
Most accessories will go bluetooth/NFC and being 'open' encourages developers.

It is understandable to an extent, particularly regarding the accessories and the app situation overall, for reasons already given above. I do think SKY need to work a bit harder with their sky go App on android though. However I think there are positives and negatives for all platforms and you have to decide which one is the best for you. For me app availability and media content are more important than customising. I have both iOS and android devices but it I had to use one platform it would be iOS for the reasons above.

I've been getting all my Android accessories (and more) from this site for the past 2 years.

Huge range of phones/devices catered for.

Apple insists on their phones keeping a wide berth from other phones but displayed side by side they are all alike.

A rectangle, slim and a big front filling screen is what we all get.
Shove a fat battery in them all and I'd be happier though people are simply accepting the biggest screen possible.”

What ones in particular do you find better looking than most?

There are a few quirky ones like the Xperia Mini.

Apart from they they all look the same, Phone included.
Shops are not allowed to display the iPhone alongside an Android phone, but side by side they you still get boring sameness.
