I don’t disagree with all you said, but for example my company has developed for our field technicians an app they use when they go to customers. Obviously they chose android over ios. That’s what I meant with impact on businesses. But Apple is making its revenue on b2c so for them it’s probably OK. Always surprised a company that big survives on b2c.
I don’t know if the fancier Samsung phones may have apps like what you mentioned? I’ll take a look. Next time I’m offered a work phone I’ll take an iPhone, I am curious to try one out tbh.
For a business, paying apple fee once a year is like nothing. And I found apple software to manage company phones better than what is available (if there is, beside Samsung).
Even developing, I’m no developer but I also had to make a small app for very simple task on iPhone and Android. Android studio with the java looked like gibberish when am xcode and swift felt much easier to learn.
In France, I have yet to work in a company that gives their employees android instead of dumb phone or iPhone.

It’s not about the fee itself, it’s about finding a developer. And when it’s easier to tinker with a technology rather than another one…
Didn’t have a work phone at my last job in France, but in Germany I’ve seen a few companies offer between Samsung and Apple
