Why I Don't Use An iPhone: An Android User's Perspective
Hey friends 🥳 IOS vs Android, iPhone vs. Samsung, the question is as old as the smartphone. I receive countless messages from people who would like to switch from an iPhone to an Android smartphone and are wondering whether this decision is the right or not. Personally, I haven't used an iPhone as my daily driver for 1.5 years and in this video you'll find out my very personal reasons why I don't use an iPhone anymore and why you probably shouldn't either. Review of the iPhone from an Android user's perspective.

I could never understand why iPhone users have always said how simple they are, while in reality it is a nightmare compared to android.
It is NOT complex. Our navigation is very simple. The settings app is easy to use. I have seen android’s settings, and it’s messy
If you struggle using iphone you must be on the spectrum
Ofcourse its easy to use when u simply just obey what they command and have no wish to change anything like that fkn keyboard
@@jeevanand88 yes, I understand our keyboard sucks, but we didn’t fake our photos
That’s actually rude to say. Also untrue
What I’ve realised after switching from android to iPhone after buying my 15 Pro Max, is that on android, you change the phone to adapt it into your life. Where with iPhones you change the way you use your phone to use it how Apple intends you to, I really don’t like that, I would like more options on iOS!
Exactly, no freedom for customization on iPhone!
But if you could have that, poor apple wouldn't make their hundreds of billions Lol
Well you didn't buy an iPhone for it's promising features, you bought it for its brand name.
@mr.lifeline5839 imagine buying a phone because of the brand lol
@@mr.lifeline5839no people buy iPhones just because are smoother,faster and less buggy than your viruses nests 😂
90% of people I've met with a iPhone simply bought it as a status symbol. The whole "user friendliness" is just nonsense.
User friendliness died along time ago, I’m an apple user for its ecosystem. And I’m pretty well settle on it. But I do appreciate how other systems work. But it’s sad true that apple became this status symbol instead of being a tool for us to use.
Your comment is nonsense
I've used both and iPhone is better in every way.
Sure buddy 😂@dragonballjiujitsu
@@cangle37 no one cares what you think cangle. iphone is better in every way
I never liked iOS but my wife was an iPhone user before. I bought her an android phone as an upgrade and she never looked back.

looked back at you? or the iphone?
i have an iphone. but i still use google maps, google chrome, google translate, google keyboard, google drive, gmail. google gemini etc. lol planning to switch back
@@marlongomez9973trust me the google keyboard on the iOS isn't same as the one on Android, the features are limited to iOS devices purposely.
@@ShubhamKumar-ld9zf :)
I wish more content creators talked about the differences in notifications like you did. It was so eloquent. But it seems that lifelong iOS users don't realize how bad it is, because that's all they know.
no, there are just people that care about different things than you. i was a life long android user and apple hater, i switched and although as with every tech, it has its flaws, notifications isnt one of them. and btw, if someone is 100% on one side of a conflict like this, he is just as fooled as the exact opposite, it just depends on what you care about and what flaws you can adapt to, as all devices have some
Notifications are objectively worse on iOS. It's not even debatable. I'd take Android notifications from version 4.2 (2012-2013) over iOS's current notifications. If you prefer iOS, that's fine, but don't pretend that notifications on iOS aren't seriously flawed.
@@avenuePad you seem to not understand the message of my comment
@@mzr9710 we all understand the message of your comment. You are just being bias, that's all. Its very clear android notification system trumps iOS. A lot of people just uses what majority use to feel among and be in an ecosystem. Its not that they care about different things than us.
I used the Sony 1 V and I much prefer my iPhone notifications structure. :3
I don't understand why people say iOS is simple...it really is less intuitive than android in many ways. Just use what you like, just don't justify it by lying.
The only thing that it has that I liked was spotlight search. On Android you have to be in the settings app to search settings, you have to be in the contacts app to search contacts, you have to be in the app drawer to search for apps. I loved the iPhone search feature it searches everything in one spot. It’s easier to navigate in that way. My Android phone is 5 years old so not sure if Android fixed that. But really liking the iPhone in that regard. Besides that I noticed to most things on iPhone either took more clicks then any did on Android or the simple features like how much time tell the phone is charged are completely missing all together. Not only that I noticed a lot of things being backwards. Instead of swiping left in internet, you have to swipe right. Instead of swipping up you swipe down for search. Heck the address bar is on the bottom instead of the top on iPhone. So many things are opposite is insane. It threw me off. So after going through all that the hype didn’t deliver at all. I don’t understand how iPhone users say it’s so much easier to use or that it’s faster, or that it’s a better experience. The differences are very settle and not deal breakers either way. And overall the iPhone didn’t deliver at all with all the claims. I have to think these people that think Android is way worse then iPhone are comparing it to the Android of 10 years ago and have no clue what modern Android is like.
Well, maybe it’s easier for them 🤷♂️ instead of jumping to lying…
@@zonk1477 “The only thing that it has that I liked was spotlight search. On Android you have to be in the settings app to search settings, you have to be in the contacts app to search contacts, you have to be in the app drawer to search for apps.” No you don't... Did you even searched on Android if you could do that? I don't think you realize how you can do literally anything on Android, precisely because it's open (source). On any Android, you can install launchers (another concept that blows any iPhone users considering how much they can't customize their OS appearance) and install modules (for those which don't natively integrate one but allows you to from a third party) that will be able to do and look for pretty much anything on your phone, whether it's apps, contacts, messages, files on your phone, calculation or conversions, internet searches and even do specific actions in apps that do support it, like Maps to look for a place (and I probably missed some functionalities). There is nothing an iPhone can do that any Android phone can't do or can't replicate with a third party app, absolutely nothing.
@@zonk1477I can search across my entire phone (Galaxy S24 Ultra) from the search window at the top of the app tray. This also works exactly the same on my Galaxy S10+ from 2019!
@@georgealex19 I bet my ass 99% of the people who say that haven't used an Android phone in their life. They just tell you because thats what apple tells them to. I know I did the same before I even tried an Android phone.
"It's super-awkward and doesn't make any sense to me". The perfect description of iOS in general, lol. First video of yours I've seen, loved it!
🙃 glad to hear that you enjoyed the video 🤗
I have the same experience with my Ubuntu Linux PCs vs the spouse's MacOS computer. I think the MacOS desktop is awkward to use. As to phones, is best to get an unlockable Pixel phone and install the security/privacy focused (and de-googled) GrapheneOS. The phone is THE primary device for spying via data collection and location tracking - neither Apple or Google can be trusted. The Graphene web installer works pretty well, but stick with a Windows or Mac computer to install from, alas there are isdues with trying to install from a Linux PC - and the command line installer is just as problematic. Sad that that's the case, but Graphene folks probably stretched thin so they concentrate on where the majority of users will install from. It was flawless from the spouse's MacOS computer usung Brave browser with ad blocker temporarily disabled - best to use a browser based on Chromium. The web site list supported browseres and OS from which can web install from
I am first time viewer as well, this lady is going on my sub list 👌🏼
I can't believe that Apple is still treating settings that way.
If you’re taking about camera settings, then this lady doesn’t know how to change camera settings from camera app. She calls herself content creator, but what she changed in settings app for camera, she never needed to do that. And also some more setting’s she doesn’t know how it works in apple. Doubt she ever used an iPhone.
@@gauravmadan13 And how do u change them from the camera app?
@@detrakis1439 just tap on the resolution and framerate for video mode. And tap pr long press on picture format to swich resolution and change format in photo mode.
@gauravmadan13 Cool, I will try that one day, if I buy an unintuitive Apple device 😅. See the problem is Apple doesn't make it obvious or show all those options anywhere.
@@detrakis1439 🙂 It is too obvious, Apple actually doesn’t need to do anything. It’s there on the screen if you see 🤣🤣. At least for so called KZheadr who was recording on iPhone for years, and if she didn’t knew that, imagine how dumb she is with her gears, or she never used apple actually 🤣
You forgot 1 thing, the Dex experience
I've been using DeX with a Galaxy and AR glasses as a desktop replacement experiment. I remember when cell phones didn't exist, and my first computer was an 8088. I used an Apple Newton 120 extensively. The portable desktop experience with Samsung DeX and AR glasses is quite amazing. I love having a fully capable desktop computer with keyboard, mouse, and huge screen no matter where I am. I can use FLIR cameras, web cameras, large storage devices, wired ethernet, Microsoft Word, and printers easily in my car or with a power bank. I can VPN to my private cloud at home and stream games or desktops over 5G. The stuff available nowadays is really impressive. I keep my Newton 120 around for laughs!
Yes! Dex replaced my whole PC lol 😁
At least 2: The S-pen is the best productivity tool.
since dex i don't spend in paying wifi internet
I use Dex to run my entire company
Finally, someone talking about stuff that matters and not just FaceTime and imessage. Team SAMSUNG.
How about Team Pixel?
Samsung knights unite !!! And people are always like android is confusing no way Apples menus are so convoluted.
If you can't handle Android phones then it's a skill issue 💀
Broo. I have an iPad pro. The amount to times I have found myself getting pissed over simple task that are easy on the android platform is just crazy. I want to mark pictures on vlc, I'll have to click option, then select while on the android just hold and you can mark
I used both, i made minor changes to suit my preferences
I think the iOS methodology for keeping ALL settings in one “Settings” menu works very well for the technology illiterate. Anyone that spends large quantities of time on a pc will feel frustrated by their approach. It’s always an adjustment when swapping between platforms.
@solomonkane408 Samsung is not the only choice in Android For many like me vivo oppo realme or Xiaomi could be a better value
I switched to the pixel 5 from my iPhone X. I have been using that phone for almost four years before switching to the S24 Ultra last month, and IOS? Never again!
How do you like the S24U?
oppo find x7 ultra
great for you, but why do you even compare iphone X from 2017 with s24U? lol
@@mzr9710he does not Hes comparing ios with android
That went right over your head 😅 @@mzr9710
I have watched millions of videos about these comparisons and this is the best by far, no lie
I switched to iPhone (15pro max ) for the first time ever in my life from android, I agree with whatever you said… sometimes i feel like am disabled especially this freaking keyboard in iOS
Same with me.
Im pretty sure you can change from apple keyboard to google keyboard🥰
Even with google keyboard in iOS you don’t get all the features of androi keyboard. apple has restricted it.
I moved from iPhone to Samsung because I need my phone for work and the iOS file management system is terrible.
Yes, that's indeed true 😄
It’s not terrible but just annoying af 😂
i got used to it so it's as simple as my galaxy s23 now
My wife and I have been lifelong iPhone users but I’ll be purchasing us each a Samsung S24 Ultra this week and for the first time we’ll be giving Android a try. Nervous but excited!
Eh, as a samsung user I'd recommend sticking aroud till s25 ultra, if you upgrade every year, then go ahead, but if not i''d say waiting for s25 is better option as it will be absolute bonkers compared to iphones.
You'll never regret it and if you can get into the Galaxy ecosystem you'll see how much more features they offer compared to apple

👇 Team Pixel
The things you just mentioned are the stuff that keep me on Android. Most of them were spot on and the reason why I still haven't switched even though I've been keeping up and even testing out every release model of the iPhone up until now. It's the little things that make a huge difference.
100%. Well said Jen. You said everything that we Android users want to tell iPhone users when they ask us why Android is better
Unfortunately they don't want to hear the truth. They just want to keep on fanboying smh...
@@Anamae5451why can’t people just stop fighting Over phones, if they wanna make their lives difficult, then so be it🤦♂️
It's not about what phone you want to have that irks me it's the misinformation Apple fan boys keep perpetually spreading. Like the ecosystem or the camera. That's not even true. The ecosystem is so big now on Android it's not closed off like Apples. The camera is better is false too just watch MKBHD video ware no one knew what phone took what photos and people picked Apples last for photos. If they didn't spread so much misinformation I wouldn't even care.
I don’t see why people fuss so much over who uses what. Who cares , people should just get out there and live life and stop staring at a screen all day long.
@@Anamae5451isnt considering you own view as the objective and only truth, kind of a part of fanboying? in my opinion everyone should use what they prefer, and stop caring so much about what other people use, at this poin smartphone market is getting boring, because all devices reached their peak and essentially are equal, and its a great thing actually, because the changes in new models will be less driven by "who gets the new best most experimental feature" to attract new customers, but rather by mastering already great devices to do what they do even better.
Loved the comment when you said 'people say iPhones are so intuitive and user friendly'. I am a long time Android user recently switched to iPhone from last couple of weeks. My motivation was to make better videos even after knowing the shortcomings of the iOS compared to Android. Still I rode the boat and now its about to sink but to my rescue Amazon return window is still open and there is a hope.... BTW, thanks for making the video.
So what's on the way now
Im the only one that left the apple ecosystem at a younger age. I already had the common sense when i was in high school. I was born in a time where if u had an iphone u were popular in school, but as years went by, it all changed to competition and ppl arguing android vs apple. I love android personally bc of the ecosystem, it represents inclusiveness bc it has different brands but made on the same operating system, and it just feels like a pc in the palm in your hands since developer mode takes your experience to a whole new level, also the EASTER EGG of checking your update version is so fun to mess with, and finally every app is so much easier to log in to since you can login with a google account and you can choose which one if you have more than one. I believe that android users represent the future gen of flip phones back in the day since we use the same brands that made all the flip phones. I have used an lg lotus flip phone, motorola droid razr m, iphone 4, lg stylo 2, lg v10, iphone 7, iphone se, oneplus 6t, and finally google pixel 7. I bough a samsung galaxy fold 4 and am getting it delivered today which im excited about. I will always love android bc android is the most innovative and gets me more excited about technology as a whole than apple ever will. I just hate how strict apple services and or the experience is, and overpriced 😔
Thanks for sharing your thoughts and experiences- very helpful 😊
First time here and I just suscribe! 😃 just like your personality and how everything was explained and organized. Good job 👏 😊

I agree to every word. I've tried to switch to iPhone for the first time. The device is great, but those little annoiances really add up... so I returned it and got a new Android instead. I'd add the lack of a fingerprint reader. Face ID is great, but I just want to be able to unlock my phone when it's sitting on my desk.
you use faceID cause that's why apple tells you... they don't care if you want a fingerprint scanner
why use face id when face unlock via camera is as fast and fibger print scanner even faster
I find with my work iPhone that face ID often doesn't work. It doesn't recognize me and I've reset it many times. I like the in screen fingerprint scanner in my android so much better. And funny thing I recently got an S23fe, moved up from the A53 and set up face unlock and it works faster then the iPhone 13. Android wins again .
@@IronCladFaith We have different standards for fast. I think Face ID is safer than most alternatives, but maybe among the slowest. Regarding the fingerprint unlock, I often use it when I don't want to lift my phone from the desk.
Love the videos, Jen. Keep up the good work! Pixel 8 user! 👍
My work, issued me an iPhone and I have the Samsung S24 Ultra for my personal phone. I can totally relate with your experiences with iPhone, the inotifications, gestures and app settings are frustrating, confusing and not user friendly!
Must be really hard to switch back and forth between the two worlds all the time 😅
Same. iphone for work. My temper goes up when using iphone just because of the swipe back, copy/paste, and notifications. so i always end up using my s24. my iphone batt lasts for 2 days just coz I barely use it
Funny, I'm a lifelong iphone user and I find android baffling. I can only do the most basic tasks, and even then sometimes I have to google instructions on how to do it.
Also if you want Android you can get the S24 ultra but every time you hold it it will dig into your Palm let's hope round the corners of the S24 ultra with the new S25 ultra next year Nothing says Android is so much better than an iPhone than digging into the Palm of your hand because the corners are so sharp lol yeah the S24 ultra is So much better lol
@@rileybusse9351 the reality is 90% of people will use cases on their phone when shelling out $1300+ on it. The only time you'll feel those "sharp edges" is if it's off. I AM very happy Samsung finally went w a flat screen on the S24 Ultra though. The curved screens were pretty, but they cracked way too easily on the bend.
Just switched over a little over a month ago to a S24 Ultra and you hit it on the head. Been an iPhone user for over a decade and I just got bored quite honestly. Great video!
Thank you 🫶
Your bored because your life revolves around your phone. 🤣
very common sense approach! thanks . some things people must consider if want to switch from one to the other. other KZheadrs don't even mention. thanks
Amazing video!! ❤ I love the way how everything was well explained 😊 I have been Android user for my whole life 🎉
Just subscribed - well produced video. I am looking forward to future content!
To be honest, there are hardly any reasons today why one would prefer an iPhone over an Android flagship. Mostly, it's either habit or the Apple ecosystem. I switched to Samsung in 2018 after 7 years with an iPhone. I would never go back
I use both iphone & android. The reason why I can't fully switch is the fact that I can't send/receive videos thru text messages without losing quality. My family shares A LOT of videos thru text.
That hurts a bit. Apple is so disgusting with trying to pull you into their system with this@@lalabebz56
also the performance over time decrease so much more on Android,the apps are not optimized. The camera isn't on par with iphones and the overall reliability in time isn't there.
@@lalabebz56the video quality sucks beacsue of apple. They wont allow transfer of media from android to iphone to be equal. This is one of the only reasons ive considered changing to a iphone, but that seems so ridiculous to change just for that when everything else is better on Android (to me)
I'm sure there are others who feel the complete opposite.
Great job on the video! And yes, I like that you went into detail and some actually really useful important tips that a lot of people don't even know. You can actually use on Android and makes life so much easier. I personally use all of these features that you just mentioned on my Samsung device and even some of them on my pixel
I say use what’s best for you. Both of them different. I had both of them before. I use my iPhone because it was way easier to connect to my tv and watch movies and androids was way harder so used it for other things
Good video 👍 starting to make me think about my next upgrade lol good points tho I can say
This is a great and detailed video.Nice!
Before the video starts I just wanna say I appreciate you posting your opinion from your perspective on this I’ve always wondered .
Quite possibly the most simple and straightforward point I've ever seen in an iOS to Android explanation. New subscriber here, great content. Danke schon.
In addition, on gBoard... If you swipe along the spacebar, you can scroll the cursor letter by letter if you need to make a quick edit to your word and if you swipe the backspace key. you can delete a word or all the words youve typed already!
I’m sorry, I’m not trying to fight you or sound condescending but iPhone has Trackpad Mode, idk about the newer models tho, I use an older model iPhone
The Samsung keyboard has that feature where you can swipe along the spacebar to move the cursor, but it's waaaay too sensitive, IMO. I have a Pixel as my personal phone and my work phone is a Samsung that's very locked down. I really struggle with the Samsung keyboard after using gboard for 5+ years to the point where I just wait until I'm at my computer again to reply to messages or emails on my work phone.
This video really deserves to win an award. It was concise, it was reasonable, and outlined the arguments in an easy to follow manner. Excellent job, Vielen Dank!
Thank you 🤗
this video is extremely well made and detailed i can relate a lot since i also switched from iphone to android and im so happy w my phone now😊
Those are the exact reasons why I have never switched to iPhone. GREAT JOB. Every time I use my wife's iPhone, the keyboard and the camara pause feature are what I miss the most from android.
much consicessly explained and good editing:)
As someone who has used both os’s I find that android is really fun too tinker with. But doing the basics or long term use tend too give me issues that iOS never really gave me, while iOS also tended too remain stable for longer and having more tinkering abilities now then people think it does (also alt store gives me a ability too sideload so I’m not missing that)
exactly this!
Yeah, I ditched Android and don’t regret it one bit…. I just got tired of my overheating samsung and needing to buy a new Android phone each 1-2 year(s).
This is the first video I have watched on your channel and am very impressed 😊. You've got yourself a subscriber.
I agree to every thing that you said! I, too, daily drive a macbook pro and my personal sim card is in a Samsung Galaxy S10e! I really don't miss out since apps like Snapdrop/Pairdrop exist! Great video! :D
Does Snapdrop work? Actually searching for an Airdrop alternative for my macbook/android smartphones
@@thegermantechgirl yes it works seamlessly and across all platforms. Anything with a web browser, actually, since you don't even need the app.
amazing video and comparison, thanks God you didn’t mention the dialer application in iphone that never been updated recently, and that you cant have he call history for more than a week!😂 keep it up 👍
OMG I never even noticed that, it's insane
Ehm...I don't know whether I get your point but I have just checked the call history on my iPhone and I can go all the way back to July 2022. ^^
great content maam... love it. to the point and very informative. i have the s24 plus model. and im loving it. ive been an android user since 2010..
The S24 + is a great choice 👌
This video is exactly what I needed. I was about to switch from my Android to a 15 Pro Max (mainly because of the cameras), but kept delaying the change because I wasn't sure how my experience would be. My last iphone was a 6S, which I ditched mainly because of the deliberate slowing down of the phone after upgrading iOS. I'm so glad i didn't made the switch! Ended up getting a new Android (13T Pro from Xiaomi) and I'm loving it!
My last iPhone ( first and last ) was the IPHONE#4. Been with Android ever since, no regrets !
Nice! But one of the most underrated features on Android is the ability to turn Google Assistant and the keyboard bilingual. I use Google Assistant in English and Spanish without the need to switch languages in the app. Same for my keyboard 👍🏽
Yes if I didn’t use an iPad, or be tech support for my family, I’d certainly consider switching. But obviously many of the points you raised can be fixed by not using the standard apps. As for Apple specific issues, the keyboard can be replaced with one you like and the volume can be adjusted separately by altering a selection in the settings.
I tested multiple keyboard apps for iPhone and idk what Apple did but they‘re worse than their android counterparts. Also the android phone I tested against was less than 100€… and it still outperformed the iPhone 11.
Per your video on the galaxy tab s9 FE, I've ordered one for myself and started following your videos religiously coz they are so easy to follow. Mostly, you speak of the day-to-day uses and accessibility rather than the technical jargon. I am team Android as well.
Glad you enjoy my videos. This is exactly my intention to show the devices in every day situations and how they perform in every day life
Great Video, I currently carry iPhone and Android but Android is my personal favorite and if I had to choose it's always going to be Android. It just makes sense to me.
You make some very good points here without simply degrading iphone users as dumb sheep like most videos of this type. My almost 5 year old iphone 11 pro max is still working great today. One thing that worries me about switching is how fast things change with android, I doubt a 5 year old android would still be as useful as my iphone is today.
I really love the points you made in this video of why you became an Android user. I feel like I went through something similar. In 2019 I switch from my Samsung Galaxy S8 to an iPhone XS. I fell into Apple's ecosystem and use most of their apps on day to day basis. Notes, Reminders, Calendar, Photos, iCloud drive, imessage, facetime, most of all it's iCloud+ features. Now I have an Apple Watch, Mac, iPhone, Airpods. It's been hard to switch back to android. I like the new foldables Samsung release, a big fan actually, but once I got into Apple's ecosystem I haven't been able to look at another phone.
I agree with all of her points on this first viewing. I'll return after getting some sleep. I was an Android user for years who switched to iOS roughly 5 years ago.
After watching this video, I immediately fell in love with you and subscribing now. you are a brave girl who honestly and unapologetically did this comparison. kudos! 🥰
Great video I just switched from an iPhone to Android and everything you mentioned is so true.
I bought the Iphone 13 Pro in 2021..... because I wanted the Iphone Experience as I had been a lifelong Android User. The amount of headaches this phone has given me is wild. I have a macbook pro and that's the only reason I still have to use this, unwillingly. I would switch back again to another device sometime in the future and never look back!
I switched to iPhone 13Max 2 years ago. All of your points here are so true. I’m still frustrated by the iOS notification system and the lack of separation for volumes. I’m considering switching back to an android phone, but I still love the smooth integration with my macbook pro because I don’t like windows OS.
Thank you for a terrific video. You make my day!❤❤❤
I had iPhone 15 pro max in the end I didn't like many things. Return exchange for Samsung S24 Ultra. It is the best, most convenient.
I felt I missed something by not using IOS. Now I feel I made the right choice. Thanks for the detailed overview on the relevant topic.

About the back gesture: it doesn't even work like that always on the iPhone. Sometimes it's a right gesture from the left side, sometimes it's up gesture from the bottom (eg.photos app when seeing a photo) and sometimes neither, you have to use the physical back arrow button on the top left corner, which is the furthest point to a right handed person (most).
That's true, the back gesture is on top inconsistent 👍 I should have mentioned that
If it came from the bottom, it gets swiped back to the bottom. Generally how it works
Great video❤
great review - subbed.
Great video, love your accent also! Subbed!
As someone who uses both every work day, I agree with all your points.
The first point doesn’t actually count because you’re doing video macro the wrong way. you’re supposed to go into 2X mode and move further away for video micro. you can turn off macro mode just press the little yellow button then going to 2X
😂😂😂
Can you turn it off by default? Or do you always have to manually turn it off when it kicks in?
Amazing comparison❤❤
Sis. I feel you with the notification management, back gesture & MOSTLY the keyboard. Like, I speak 3 languages DAILY and Apple‘s stock keyboard can‘t even handle me switching midways from English to German??? What‘s the all that AI advancements for if the smartest most powerful pocket computing devices on the planet can‘t handle my basic use?! I use iPad btw. It‘s horrible & so dumb.
Have on my iPhone keyboard English, German and French.. no problem at all 😬
Great video. My gripe with iOS is it doesn't have a universal back gesture and split screen.
I had the S24 ultra and returned it due to fingerprint sensor issues. I replaced it with an iPhone 15 pro max and honestly I'm thinking really serious about switching back. The camera on the 24 Ultra was just far superior to the iPhone 15 Pro Max. The camera on the 24 Ultra also reduced a function for me by allowing me to watermark the date and my name on the photos natively. I can do this on the iPhone, but it requires a 3rd party app. I did have a screen protector on the 24 Ultra and I'm wondering how much that affected the functionality of the fingerprint sensor.
Let me know when you switched back 😄🫶
Depending on which screen protector, another 2 things you should do if you go back is to register the same fingerprint twice, and increase the touch sensitivity on the screen in settings, also the negative of using a screen protector on the S24U is that it will lose the anti reflection properties of the display
Yeah don't buy a cheap screen protector. I had that same problem with my s24U. Then I bought a torras diamond sheid tempered glass screen protector and the FP scanner works as if there isn't a screen protector on there. Just remember to register FP after the screen protector is installed.
Register the same fingerprint more than once, that should resolve the problem.
You can increase touch sensitivity on Samsung devices before applying screen protector. Then just rescan your fingerprints.
Great video! As a content creator - what is your process for getting the videos off your Android and into your Mac for editing? i never liked smart switch I have been an android user forever - but I was thinking of switching to iPhone since I now have an iPad and I also have a MacBook
I use a microSD card to get my videos from my smartphone into my Macbook, just using an USB-C adapter.
everything you said is what I've been saying to my friends with iphone!!! hahaha you got it spot on! awesome video 😊
In your opinion, would you go for the s24 ultra or the s24 plus version and why?
I got a dedicated video on this topic on my channel. To sum it up: I personally would go for the Plus Version 😄
@thegermantechgirl, thank you for the reply, I'll check the video out
For me there's two reasons. 1) Apple's unethical and anti-consumer business practices and, 2) their phones just kinda suck.
Yes, also a good point with the anti consumer business practices 🫶
Also, all of your points are on par and legitimate! Thank you!
I LOVED your video! And your accent! Haha new subscriber here!😊
All Basic Android features i like: 1️⃣ Navigation Gestures from Left to Right and from Right to Left 2️⃣ Multitasking with Split View and floating Windows 3️⃣ Moving icons on my home screen wherever i want, top, bottom, left, right with empty space or not. 4️⃣ Easy Link to Windows 💻 5️⃣ Pro Camera Mode without buying an app 6️⃣ Keyboard with numbers row key on top 7️⃣ Using 2 instances of the same app with 2 different account : Pro and Personal thanks to Cloned apps 8️⃣ File management system: massively better on Android, easy to handle. 9️⃣ Android clipboard Multi-tasking: i can use Split View like i do on a Windows 💻 with touch Windows➕⬅️ and Windows➕➡️
Perfect 👌 I could have used this as my script 😄 totally agree with every single point
@@thegermantechgirl 😅 feel free to use it. I daily use a 13 Pro and a Nothing Phone(1). My 13 Pro works well, no issues at all but honestly, outside of cameras ( flagship cameras on 13 Pro) on daily use, i enjoy more NP1: things are just more practical, direct, simple. Good video by the way👏🏿👏🏿
everything you listed as far as file system and features were just introduced and samsung was the only android with copy clipboard , been using android since 2.1 and ios since ios 4 they’ve both evolved but ios is more simplistic , it’s so many “ versions “ of android most features are embedded and hard to find , but when people talk android ios they are always and almost always referring to samsung and ios , not motorola , LG - r.i.p , Oppo etc
Great take! I just noticed that amazing advantages of using AndroidOS rather than iOS
Excellent comparison Great analysis
Good review. I like the honesty of this video. The last feature its available in Android and way better on Moto Z line since 2016.
I loved your video, I currently use an iphone14 pro and a samsung galaxy s22 ultra. The iPhone lacks many features that I often use on Android. I'll probably stick with android, although I'm still using a Macbook. Thank you for your kind opinion!
I'm also using a Macbook and a S24 Ultra, works perfectly. Not missing anything
Rubbish I phones are more my ney
I own and use the Google Pixel 8 pro and iPhone 13 pro max. I got my pixel 1st and used that for at least 3 or more months 1st and then my GF gave me her 13 pro max later. I have been more of an android user for several years. When I got onto the iPhone I immediately noticed the difference! That promotion screen is so AWESOME! SMOOTH like butter! 😅 The largest difference I noticed is the customization of Android! OMG I didn't realize how much I was being spoiled with that until I got onto iOS! iOS also lacks a copy and paste clipboard like Android! Google Pixel 8 pro clipboard is so awesome and I love it! iPhone keyboard is TRASH! So I even use Google keyboard on my iPhone lol. Yes, that is possible and I was so surprised when I saw that in a KZhead video so I switched to that asap! In the end, I love both iPhone and my Google Pixel 8 pro. Last night before going to bed I realized that my iPhone 13 pro max feels like it's a physically better quality than my Google Pixel 8 pro. The pixel 8 feels cheaper than my iPhone 13 pro max. Hmm..
So well said. I own an iPhone for work and easily notice the difference in experience.
These points are exactly right Jen! Please set a notification in your calendar for the middle of November when the new iOS 18 will be already released, and rumors say that many things will be fundamentally changed, and if you think it is worth it make a review again. The lack of proper gestures control is Insane! :)
