Not really...
- Can iPhone allow disabling of core services? No - but I've installed https://grapheneos.org/ and run not a single Google service
- Can iPhone allow full private DNS of your choosing? No
- Can iPhone run a full non-Safari browser, such as Firefox? No
- Can iPhone support adblocking extensions within browsers? No
- Can iPhone support something like SyncThing so you can achieve backup of photos to a place of your own choosing, without having to use Apple Photos or Google Photos? No
- Can iPhone fully support an always on Wireguard VPN? Not really, it's not fully exclusively "VPN or nothing" and when on it breaks any private DNS (even the Apple one)
- Does Apple consider you to have privacy? No (recent court cases have fully stated that "no reasonable user would ever expect that Apple couldn't access all of their data... meaning there isn't end-to-end encryption, only on device encryption)
I'm a total nerd, security and privacy are extremely high... and Android via something like GrapheneOS is absolutely private.

Is that true?

Last time I checked, though I only check when I consider a new phone and apply my list of requirements to all the devices out there.

I do like Apple hardware, I just think their software sucks big time and has very little focus on privacy despite their marketing, and that it's all made significantly worse by their walled garden precluding more privacy conscious solutions within that ecosystem (as it would represent a loss of control to Apple which they will do not find acceptable, as the revenue from apps and services is too great to risk reducing due to more privacy)
