The quality isn’t really the issue, it’s when the company
This issue isn’t limited to Apple, but Apple is the well known example for locking people into an ecosystem whether they like it or not
Do you have an example of them rejecting a quality product from being used in their phones?
Another big example is any web-browser that isn’t safari. That should be changing soon/recently (see here https://www.theverge.com/2024/1/25/24050478/apple-ios-17-4-browser-engines-eu) but that’s only because Apple was forced to.
Now they can babysit other browsers and make sure they’re secure too, ig. Might as well throw that responsibility on the trillion dollar company. At least the browsers will end up more secure once the apple security team audits them.
You were already provided with examples in this comment thread:
Which manufacturers and which products?
Literally everything that’s not manufactured and sold by Apple.
Pick one and post the issue then.
