Because it's a better product with a better ecosystem. IMO, of course.
iPhones, and Apple products in general are not about being the sum of their parts. If I wanted the highest megapixel /fastest gigahertz /most cores/biggest screen, of course I wouldn't buy Apple.
But when I want something that works for me and not vice versa, sorry, I'll pay the premium. It's the OS.

Everyone: Can we PLEASE not have arguments about which is obviously best and which is obviously worst?
We have team mates who prefer all kinds of phone OSs. Making proclamations about which is obviously "best" does nothing but force people into defending their opinion.
What is the point in instigating fights with friends?
I am sad, I thought I was the best without discussion.
Friends are like diamonds and diamonds are forever
