Sticking with iOS is an easier migration with no learning curve.
Nothing against Android, but if you are not the type to be able to easily figure it out yourself, please don't expose yourself or someone else to that type of experience to teach you how.
Get a phone with good amount memory for your needs (ie: Pics, video etc. 128/256 GB). It's like $50-150 per year over the life of the phone but would easily allow you to eke out an extra year or two in many ownership situations.
If not getting a phone with good amount of memory, for the love of god pay for the cloud storage so that you can compress the stuff on your phone and send the full sized data files to the cloud. It's cheap as hell.
Finally, consider selling your Apple device rather than let it collect dust? As much as you bemoaned that Apple was ripping you off, the resale price on Apple devices are far higher than the typical Android phone. That should help you to bridge the cost of the newer one.
