“[The iPhone] has very few weak points. There aren’t any real complaints and problems. In terms of quality, the iPhone is leading.” said Wozniak, before conceding that, “Android phones have more features,” and offer more choice for the end user.

Wozniak did not have similarly kind words for Nokia however, calling it “the brand from a previous generation”.
