I paused the video at exactly 1 minute, because i just had to say this: This was the cleanest b-roll/intro I’ve ever seen, good job man!
Thank you!! ✊🏽
The only Reason i agree with is the UI Design and Fluidity. The Build quality of Flagship Androids is on par with new iPhones. iMessage is an US only problem. Images get sent over Wifi via Whatsapp to Androids too.
Currently whatsapp is compressing the images/videos drastically. But in the near future whatsapp shoudl get uncompressed photo and video share
@@johan-wh5qt yeah but its fine for a quick share of videos etc
I agree with what you're saying. Build quality was my last point for a reason because there are some really good flagship androids out there. Also I did point out in my video that iMessage is a problem only here in the US because of the huge market share here. Nobody really uses other messaging apps 😕
I didn’t know Whatsapp compresses pics/videos. I guess my point still stands :) if I didn’t share a lot of pictures with family then it wouldn’t be a big deal.
Only boomers care about iMessage. Messaging is free now but Mobile data is limited. Also if you want privacy you would use SMS or iMessage anyhow.
That's cute. I have 45 reasons why iOS is 10 years behind Android in features, usability and utility: 1. Notifications. There isn't even a comparison. iOS notifications are horrendous, even Android notifications from 2012 are better than today's iOS notifications. 2. Apps. This is one of the biggest iOS flaws. App Store don't have variety of Apps, therefore, lots of relevant and quality apps are missing. When I switched to iOS, I missed about 20 essential apps that I used every week, and I couldn't find any alternative for them on the Apple Store, even in paid apps. For example, something so trivial like a MUSIC PLAYER APP, there's not ONE in iOS that is at least comparable with PowerAmp on Android, even in paid apps. 4. No real file manager. Unbelievable. This totally spoils the usage of the OS in so many ways. 3. No always-On Screen. iOS don't have this in 2023 while Android had it for so many years. 5. The iOS keyboard sucks, while Android's Gboard is actually pretty good. You can install third party keyboards on iOS, but the keyboad will still be almost equally bad because Apple forces third party keyboards to use the Apple's API. 6. Siri sucks so much. Google Assistant is extremely good, I'd say it's 10 years ahead of Siri. 7. Selecting text is really dumb and slow on iOS compared to Android. 8. No Sideloading apps. 9. Extremely poor customization and no third party launchers. 10. No system-wide adblocker. 11. No real browser like Kiwi on Android, that let's you install any desktop browser extensions. Safari is a joke, and again, Apple don't let you install a third party browser to surpass this issue, because all iOS browsers on App Store use Safari's API, so in reality no matter which browser you use, you are always running Safari. The exact same problem happens with third party keyboard, as I explained. 12. No possibility to set default apps. 13. No real and interactive widgets. It's true that iOS finally implemented widgets after 13 years that Android had it (lol) but it still doesn't come close to Android's widget, as iOS widgets aren't really interactive. 14. No universal back gesture. 15. No split screen/multitasking. 16. Can't change volume independently for alarm, media, notifications, etc. 17. No fingerprint scanner. 18. No call recording. 19. No usb stick/hard disk support through OTG. 20. No direct face unlock without swiping. 21. No file transfer to PC. I can't stand that iTunes bullshit. 22. No Picture in Picture feature/floating apps like Google Maps does on Android. 23. No console emulators. 24. No possibility to installing custom roms. 25. No possibility to download torrents. 26. No possibility to change size of all the text on the system. 27. No native OGG and FLAC support. 28. Still uses lightning port. Edit: they finally implemented USB-C in 2023 because they were forced to (europe regulations), but the speed is the same as the old lightning port (lol), so not on par with the average Android USB-C. 29. No MHL (mirror phone to monitor/TV). 30. No desktop mode like some Androids have, for example Samsung DeX and Motorola Ready. 31. No quick disable auto brightness 32. Correcting words is a nightmare because the cursor only goes to beginning or end of words, not where you touch it like on Android. 33. Phone dialer app is a joke. No cursor, if you accidently press a wrong number, you have to backspace the whole thing and redo again, and the same goes for the calculator app. And no T9 dialing. 34. No pause in video recording. 35. No battery saver (low power mode on iOS is a gimmick). On Android the power saver would drastically extend the battery life. 36. if an app is malfunctioning, you will have to uninstall and reinstall, while on Android you could just clear cache/data 37. No option to use navigation buttons 38. if an app crashes, it will just close or freeze abruptly with no notification whatsoever, while on Android it will give you a notification that the app has stopped working and give you options to force close or to wait. 39. No Clipboard feature 40. Totally unintuitive way to change app settings. Most apps settings can't be accessed directly from the app, you have to leave the app, open phone settings, look for the app, then locate the app settings. The same goes for the camera app, no menu inside the camera app. Also no pro mode for the camera. 41. No pin to screen feature 42. Photo management is terrible, for example, Whatsapp photos get saved in the camera roll. Wtf? 43. Still no easy native way to add custom ringtones. Laughable. 44. No scrolling screeshots 45. No option to change animation speed, which decreases speed, or at the very least, decreases the perceptibility of speed. Of course there are a lot of other small things and details that I don't recall right now or don't know, but I won't extend further. It's over for applefags.
Damn mate I can totally agree.
You've just totally put me off moving to an iPhone from my Fold 5 😂
I was about to switch to the iPhone 15 pro max, from an S22 Ultra, just for a change. Not gonna do it anymore.
The biggest advantage with Android is that you can buy devices according to your financial condition and all devices will have a value for money advantage..
Many of your points are simply not true, while others are completely dumb. You are saying that there is no files app, even though there is one. You are saying that iPhones don't have always on displays, which is also not true. You are saying picture in picture is not a thing, even though it is. "but the speed is the same as the old lightning" my iPhone 15 pros transfer speed of 10 Gbps is faster than most androids, including samsungs flagships. You are also saying you can't clear the cache when an app stops working..... Firstly apps crash extremely rarely unlike on android where it happens every single day, secondly you can easily clear the cache of an app in the apps settings. Most of your points are also non issues. For most of your points there is a counter point to android. Also, what does a feature of a third party app have to do with the iPhones photo management? What a braindead list
Long time Android use here who has been using the iPhone 13 for 6 months. The ui is inconsistent. Navigation within the system and apps is easier with Android navigation gestures. Cameras are about the same. Battery life is similar with the s23 series. One thing I can tell you is that my s23 gets better reception than any of our iPhones. That alone will keep me on Android.
I also noticed this. I have a S22 ultra and also an iPhone both me and my wife and the reception on the S22 ultra is always better. We travel a lot in places with low signal and most of the time where the iPhone doesn't have signal, the S22 ultra does.
@@bb-ioanSteve Jobs: If you struggle to get reception then you're holding your iPhone wrong
@@DomCobb1Yes, you right, if you want a really good signal on your iPhone, you should stay near provider antenna or max. 100m.
I have s22 ultra and at work my phone barely can send out text or make calls the Wi-Fi is crap and when I turn it off it says searching get on my 14 plus no issues .I am a iPhone user I prefer my iPhone over android any day and my children most people I know have iPhones my 3 brothers are android users personal preference.
S23 owner here. Glad I came across your comment. Other comments stated the same thing with reception on Samsung being better vs Iphone.
I used to be passionately team android. I made a deal with one my best friends who happened to like iPhones just as much I did Androids. The next phone I'd buy would be an iPhone and then I'd tell him why I didn't like it when I switched back to Android. This was in 2017 and I am now still using an iPhone, so technically I still haven't had to tell him he was right.
use s23 and you will never go back to iporn
@@DisrespectTheRespect S23 is good but the iPhone is for long life users, the s23 will be forget as the s22 and s21 and s20, because samsung batteries and build quality is not just as good as the iphone doesn't last long
@@DisrespectTheRespect I sold my dad my 13 pro max and he’s still with apple and never switching to android😂
@@AlexisPunch not true, actually, old Samsung flagships have great resale value. Like I'm using the s22 ultra and I don't plan on switching till maybe the s25 or 26
@@delroyopondowhy is the s22 ultra selling for almost the same as an 11 pro max if it has great resell value? S22 ultra sells for slightly more used despite it being a newer phone and also a more expensive msrp.
Switched to iphone this week from my samsung galaxy s10 plus and i hate it... 1. To transfer files and whatsapp was a heavy work. Took me hours and intensive research 2. No option to pause video recording 3. No call recording 4. Very hard to download pdf files. Instead of just getting downloaded, it opens in a new tab and then u have to share it, save it etc 5. Even the calculator is very basic,. In android, u can see the calculatioms u done just in the screen itself, but in ios the app is like an old one we used 20 yra ago 6. No numbers on the keypad 7. Even if we switch to numerical keyboard from alphabets, the most frequent symbols like *, +, #, etc are on the second page of symbols.. These are the things that got to my nerves just in 3 days.
As long as you use Google messages on Android, it does the exact same thing as I message for the most part including high detail video and photos
I've been an Apple user since the 1980s. Trust me when I say this. Do NOT under any circumstances store your media on Apple iCloud. Store YOUR media on a third-party cloud storage. If you don't this, it will make it nearly impossible to leave the walled garden without much pain or leaving YOUR media.
This is the first one of your videos I’ve seen. As a new subscriber to your channel, I’ll definitely be back often because you’ve got some of the highest production values I’ve seen on the YT platform. The intro to this video was truly next level. Really nicely done content!
Thank you! 🙏🏽
I’ve seen your video pop up on my recommendations for a while now. I’ve been on iOS for three years about to be four years in March consistently, I will be getting the iPhone 15 Pro Max very soon, but I also will be picking up a Google Pixel 8 Pro as well in the near future. I can’t find a phone or operating system that makes me want to commit wholeheartedly, so I just go back-and-forth between Android and iOS but now I’m just gonna use Android and iOS simultaneously.
Same here. Have 14 PMX and I want the S24U. I just like the phone. However, I like my Apple products as well so not leaving them either.
I have always been an Android user. Just a month ago I bought my first iPhone to try out. The 15 pro. This video perfectly sums up my experience. There's lots that feels a little clunky with apple. The keyboard is the worst part of the iphone. I do however, like the amount of work apple puts in to make a seamless experience. It does seem to flow more, and apps just integrate with each other. I'm still unsure if i'll stick with it, or get myself a 2024 android.
I just miss the back button so much and i miss the hole punch. And I don’t like that if you owe subscriptions money Apple won’t let you download any free apps. And if they don’t accept your card you’ll also have issues. On Android they could care less lol.
What's your verdict? How's your experience so far? Have you switched?
@@kevaughngolding9156I went back to the Android, and sold the 15 Pro. Apple makes a fine product, no doubt, but the Android is just something I feel a lot better using.
@kevaughngolding9156 Metro by t-mobile has a deal on the Samsung S23 fe that if you switch over your number, it's only $49.99!!! So I'm gonna go with my partner, and we're gonna upgrade. But yeah, after dealing with Apple's lies,greed,and bs, I'm absolutely done with them and will be selling all Apple items. It's hard to sell my tablet that I begged my mom for it was the iPad 6th Gen that I got on my birthday, so it holds sentimental value to me.
Great video quality and editing
After 12 years with android i switched to apple last week. Everything works fine and smooth. Happy customer so far. Switched from a OnePlus 8t to a 15 pro max
Living outside of the US I can't understand many of those iPhone advantages. Nobody uses iMessage and the default way of communication and video sharing is through Watts App. The only weakness of Android usage of Watts App is if I use the in-app camera functionality instead of the device camera app and then attaching the video. Downloading and uploading files to the PC is better with Android device because the phone just looks like external USB drive when connected. Finally, the elephant in the room is the price. Buying iPhones outside the US is even more expensive then in the US and buying the basest Apple ecosystem (iPhone+MacBook air) is twice the cost of comparable ecosystem (I use Asus ZenFone+TUF laptop) and I get a laptop that's good enough for gaming as a bonus. I also require a Windows PC for work so the MacBook would be in addition to the TUF.
The more and more I use Android and iPhone side by side while travelling I am drawn to iPhone because of camera shutter and video smoothness. Everything else is caught by Android I guess. Oh yeah. the face ID which works in dark, with cap, glasses, Apple Pay, Hide my email, Login with Apple ID. These are some of the best features. No match on Android side as per me.
@@pearlsofwisdom101samsung pass, samsung wallet, samshng have all of those perhaps even more. Don't forget the modes and routines which makes your phone an automation machine, oh yeah, also a working proper back button and notification center
@@t-90atank35 having a feature and having a polished always dependable feature are two different things.
@@born2enjoy102 samsung have been dependable for me, their ecosystem wise. And having a dependable back button and proper notification center
@@t-90atank35 you mean the same back button which doesn't work in Facebook app but works elsewhere?
I am 6 years iphone users and switch to android last week…. Damn what a wasted 6 years 😢😢
This is my experience. First iOS device was a 12 - which I still have because 1. my kid's schools force them into iPads from Grade 4 all the way to Year 9. 2. because we use the apple family safety features - my wife and I both gave up our S series Galaxy's for an 11 for my wife and a 12 for me 3. My prev Gen 1 series only has apple car play - no android auto unless I spend a lot of cash on an adaptor that will force iDrive to work with Android Auto - or I get a new car 4. I have a crappy Motorola g31 that I got for free running Android 12 and just for a laugh - I put my SIM card into it and daily drove it for a week. The entire Android experience is so much better than Apple (I don't do social media like FB, TikTok etc so I don't care about the lower quality camera photos when using the Whatsapp camera vs the native camera) - just having notifications that make sense, or not having to navigate that stupid setting screen to change something instead of just changing it in the app then and there makes Android superior in usability. I've been watching more and more videos of iOS vs Android - I think I might trade in the 12 for a Pixel 8 now that they've said they will be supporting it for 7 years of Android updates.
I’ve used both… I started using Android when the original Note debuted. Apple was the 1st smart phone tho, so up until that point I was using an iPhone and was into Jailbreaking and all that jazz once that all started to be popular. Once I started using Android’s I got into rooting and swapping ROMs and all that too!! Im wanting to use Android because I really would like to use a Z Fold 5… my last Android phone was the Note 20 Ultra… I LOVED that phone ! Even got a Tab S7+ to go along with it!! But… ended up selling it all and going back to Apple. Everything just works better and flows more fluently IMO!! There’s always a honeymoon phase when I’ve tried switching back to Android. I’m in a lot group txt threads and the experience was HORRIBLE with that! Along with limited media files that you were allowed to send through txt 😢 I don’t understand why Android users get so upset with Apple users 😅 I’ve literally used BOTH to their FULLEST and have concluded that Apple suits me the most… to each their own 🤷♂️
that's the reason why I switch over to iOS too, the little things that some folks may not care. how the animations work, fluidity, coherence, overall feel. although I sacrificed battery but it helped me be mindful with how I consumed tech be more present in real life, make my device just a tool. plus the 2nd hand market and tech support is great here.
There's only one major flaw to your comparison and that's regarding the software support. Apple is still years ahead of any android brand when it comes to delivering regular updates that actually solves minor issues, unlike its android counterparts. Even though, for example purposes only, Samsung delivers 4 android updates + 5 year security patches, with their flagship lineups, most often than not, those patches don't solve a single thing. Starting from galaxy s3, I've had almost every single Samsung S series and Note series phone, and let me tell you, camera focus issue on Samsung phones was always there, even back in the day. They still haven't find a way to fix it or, they choose not to do so. S21ultra had it, s22ultra as well and even s23ultra. Every single one of those phones could not provide you with a constantly decent photos/ videos of a moving subject. Sure, they can get the job done, but you will have to work for it, more often than you would want. Every year, after a few months after launching their new flagship series, Samsung issues a patch which was, supposedly, going to fix the camera issues. But, it never does. Than you spend time waiting for another patch and the cycle goes on. Soon enough, new flagship phones are set to launch and the older gen gets forgotten. They still keep pushing updates, patches, but no one cares now, there's a new kid on the block. Iphone, on the other hand, gets the job done almost every single time. Sure, some hickups occure when you rush a new product, but they don't ignore it. They promptly issue a patch that fixes the problem. Not having to delete tons of blurry photos (or unusable videos) every time I wanna capture my toddler running around the house, goofing around is a huge difference and a headache remover, at least in my book.
The Samsung Galaxy S24 is getting 7 years of updates
The S24 and Google Pixels are getting 7 years of updates. Also there are unlocked bootloaders and custom ROMs that effectively give your Android phone unlimited support
I know im late to the party, but man you are great at making and editing videos. You just earned another subscriber. Keep up the awesome work.
About sharing media. What prevents you from sending a link to Google Photos or any online drive where you keep it? Or just using another messenger?
This was a really good video. I currently use an Android phone and (despite having worked for Apple in two of their stores as a post-retirement job) have never owned an iPhone. I'm considering a switch, and you make some really good points in this video as to why that might not be a bad idea. Good stuff!
Trust me when i tell you, if you switch to iphones you will like them they're good phones but they are very boring and limited. If you're ok with that you might use it for a couple of years but you will go back to android because of their innovation and the fact that they are so open and you can do whatever you want with your phone. (coming from an iphone 14 pro max user) soon switching to the s24 ultra :)
@@largon2008 That's the thing man. I'm primarily an Android user. And sometimes little quality of life issues stack up over here and remind my why the seamless functionality of the iPhone is so nice. So I switch back. Then I wanna play Ocarina of Time on an emulator on my phone. Ooof can't do that. lol If you're willing to put up with the occasional OS kinks on Android, it's honestly worth it. You have more options for platform integration (Google, Microsoft, etc.) instead of being shoe-horned into ONLY using the Apple platform. That being said, you're also able to use those things on iPhone and STILL have access to iCloud and things. It's a very complicated debate lol.
@davidlindsey5363 Yeah, Apple is only so "nice" and smooth cause of the safe 60 hz screen, basic functionality, and the limitation of customization.
@largon2008 did you make the switch? And I agree iPhones are very boring and money hungry things. What made me shift away from apple is the serialization of the devices, the fact that you gotta pay for iCloud Storage for photos and files, and limited customization. Might I add that you can't even freaking get at least 90 hz for the new base model iPhone 15
I was thinking going to Android as I see some cool developments and cost, but had the same reasons as you gave for not doing that. I am afraid ultimately Android has too many services continuity limitations and you require too much tinkering to find alternatives. As I get older, I value service functionality, ease of use, and overall integration, which Apple simply does best. Only if the cost could be cheaper that would be ideal, because one thing I really hate is that the cheaper devices from Apple lack just 1-2 features that I always find important and they put them in Pro models...
13 year android user year...I'm switching to iPhone..Android is too glitchy...have the pixel and I'm over it...90% of my friends and family have iPhone...so imessage and FaceTime is a big reason too. iPhone build and OS is just rock solid
@anon2414 You are right! But on the IPhone went through some bugs and glitches like the camera app just black out on me when I opened. IIOS design language is something questionable.
and android isnt? I can think of 20 glitches per day on android (granted had it 2 years ago so not latest experience). Overall, Android as OS is way more questionable than IOS @@miko-ee
I really wish Apple just went all the way with iOS. It's great overall and looks and feels nice, but navigating it can be super counter-intuitive. Why do I have to go to the settings app for almost every little thing, while on Android settings are always accessible from within the apps themselves? For an OS that claims to be intuitive, that sure as hell isn't. Same goes for the back gesture on iOS, or the lack thereof. In some apps it's a swipe from the left, in some it's a button on the top left, and in some instances you have to swipe down...often it's different even within the same app depending on which menu you're in. That's just not a good thing to do
I agree on the gesture control, sometimes its weird but in 90% of the time its not an issue. As for the settings, I actually prefer that. I think it brings order to the chaos of settings as most apps follow unified approach to the settings. You always know what you can do to an app in the settings menu vs in-app settings. Also, most apps still allow for in-app tweaking, its just for major bits that relate to data tracking and some phone hardware control that you must go to the settings menu on IOS. This actually does make sense as it allows for easier privacy control and overview of your settings per app. Of course, if you do not use IOS often it can be hella frustrating for a few months till you get used to it :D @@leDespicable
Multitasking is still poop in iphones and some banking apps I use are still not available on apple store. Scrolling and animations may feel fluid but they're too slow for me who prefers faster animations and there's no universal back button on iOS
That was a magnificent upload. I've been a Samsung Knight forever but always been intrigued with iphone. One app i do have on my S23 Ultra is Apple Music. Absolutely fantastic.
have been an apple user for years. My best phone was a nokia living in EU. I switched to A23 which I really like. The navigation is better ( for me ) on the Samsung. BUT - all the comments that you stated I will be trading my S23 for the Iphone 15 pro.
You see I love apple but, for example, I also miss being able to download apps to get free ringtones. And more freedom of customization, but it has been along time since I owned an android phone in the first, which was from a pretty crappy, android phone to an iPhone 6s and I can tell you it was an astronomical difference and upgrade. I’ve been looking at new phones like the Samsung galaxy S 23 and comparing them to my new iPhone 14 promax and iPhone such as xiaomi and oppo or whatever they are. And I can tell you that I’m happy with my purchase of the iPhone 14 promax it is just a great all-around phone to carry in my pocket every day, and although there are small places where android beats Apple, nothing beats Apple software and the seamless design and optimization of it they put so many hours of work in to. So Apple versus android I think it really depends on you like you said, I like this channel and I have subscribed I hope to see you go farther. Thank you. Have a great day.
You do realize that application developers that create the apps that you use don't actually work at apple, nor apple does any part in optimizing the apps, it's just that we know you guys are morons that pay for the apps so we make sure that they are more stable there so you can keep paying for most of the stuff that we release for free on android.
I would never switch back to iPhone after my experience with Google's Pixel 8. I don't even watch apple product videos anymore, and I feel clean and free from drugs.
😆 the last line made me laugh out loud. Considering going back to android as we speak after 3 years
No one really gives you a F honestly
I recently got the Google pixel 7 pro phone. I can't wait for the 8 pro to come out and for android 14 to be released. 🎉
I like how I'm able to customize my android phone. Android is sooo flexible, and most apps looks better on Android than IOS. I also currently am using an iPhone 14 pro which maybe my last iPhone for a while. The last time I used an Android was 2017 If I remember correctly, which was an HTC. It was slow and clunky.
I just love cellphone tech, period. I switch back and forth, too. It's more interesting that way 😎
same thing )
How can I get my Homescreen get to look like at 0:51 on the iPhone??? Is there some 3rd party App needed to do so? The Intro is really great - music, perspective, light…! Made me subscribe to your channel, even though I’m a big fan of Oxygen OS on Oneplus 7Pro (since 2019)… but already ordered the iPhone 15 Pro Max (512GB) since there’s no Android I really like as much as my old Oneplus 7 Pro.

These switching smartphone videos are now just a way of getting people's attention otherwise they're based on biased opinions and doesn't help much in regards to helping people decide which brand is better as such i think its better for people to try these products on their own and make their own assessment
However this was a fair presentation of personal preference
@@TwinKing- Not fair as it's being influenced by eCosYsTem US mentality which most of the country don't care
Bravo you are an amazing storyteller. I was seriously captivated.
I love android always have. Its come a hell of a long way from where it began but as a android fan, i will say that apple is also pretty sweet. But reality is they both do the same shit, just differently or perhaps worse or better at certain things sometimes, but iOS just works.... Its simple, quick, pleasing on the eyes the UI is actually really nice their animations are always nice, android is also mint, look at the galaxy s23s.. One UI is good to but either way. Eithers good and gonna be able to do most of the same things. PS one annoyance i did have with iphones was i cant bluetooth mp3s and just load music on it simply. That bugged me lol
I tried so so hard to love ios, 2 years. I cant anymore. Maybe once I'm older and i don't enjoy tinkering and having what i want, and not what someone tells me im going to have, but im def going back to samsung later this month.
Same feelings dear friend. At these days Android just works
I had Android before for a long time then switched to Apple it’s been 5 years now I want to go back bc this shit is limited for the things I’ve been trying to do! 😂
I feel you and that's why they call it walled garden
Whatever said here only applies in the US, I have been using Iphones for a long time but only 1 year ago I used iMessage quite briefly, plus allot of apps are more optimized to Android than Apple, it's easier and more fluid in an Android than Apple
Started on an Evo 4G with Sprint, and ended on a Galaxy Note 8. Switched to iPhone 13 mini, and never looked back. I have been looking at the Pixel 8 Pro and Zen 10 Pro…really interesting devices! Will be upgrading to a 15 Pro Max next month.
I had the 13 mini and liked it a lot. I switched after 2 years to the regular 15 mostly for the battery.
@@jgadiaz How do you like the regular 15? What made you get that over the regular Pro?
@@EstiloInAction pretty happy with the standard 15, screen is brighter, rounded edges feel better, mate back looks premium and the battery is pretty good. I skipped the pro since I don't really care too much about the cameras. Natural Titanium looks beautiful I have to admit tho.
@@jgadiaz Awesome man Thanks for the reply 🙏 I’m thinking about that Pro for the camera.
Switched to 15 pro max after 12 blatant years of android. The only android phone I am considering is the pixel. Other than, spending a single dollar on android brands are just a waste. Keeping fine with the iPhone for atleast 6 years
Nah, I just switch from iPhone to Android, boy how much a relief. Not falsely lied to with sense of security which is not secure. As not in the US, apps in some countries come in Android first then iPhone.
Canadian here and Windows Phone fanboy who switched to Andriod; I use iOS at work. I have friends and family on iOS however rarely use iMessage, but use WhatsApp and WeChat regularly instead. The iOS smooth animations of opening and closing apps etc. was a copy from Windows Phone since iOS 7 back in 2013. Only on Windows Phone and Android can you plug your phone into a computer and drag and drop MP3s, JPGs, etc. hassle free.
For me it’s Continuity between the OS and Hardware Apple makes both and that’s important to me as they can get the most out of their hardware… its always been like that for me
Apart from The Worst Keyboard In The World And Lack Of Customization Options for Ringtone And alarms
I need to a modern Android to get the best of both worlds. Keep exploring. Make sure Android and Apple are serving you, and not the other way around.
I've been enjoying Samsung and choosing it over iPhone for the past decade but in the past year, media sharing on Android has begun affecting my professional work. I've also moved home and all of my family and friends are on iPhone. I used to sneer at the peer pressure but for the first time I'm actually feeling inferior on my android... I also went from a flagship Samsung to the FE and a lot of apps I use on a daily basis are buggy and I'm tired of it. I recently switched back to Mac, and I've been enjoying my iPad pro since 2018. Though it feels like I'm joining a cult, I'm ready to embrace the ecosystem (never thought I'd say it kinda makes me feel queasy 😂) I've been patiently waiting for type c and other features to finally come through on the iPhone and the time is here. Haven't had a iPhone since 5th gen, now I'll be switching back for iPhone 15.
Tell your experience here!
@@lucaswild i’ve been very happy with the iPhone 15 Pro Max! It is very heavy compared to even my largest Samsung, but it’s a compromise for the beautiful quality and performance. I do feel that the 5X zoom is a bit of a gimmick. I’m a photographer and I love using my phone on the fly, but I find that in many real world applications where I would rather use my phone over my camera, the 5X zoom is a little too close, and I find myself, wishing that I could use the 2X without it being a digital crop. Besides that, the quality has been great for my work in social media. What’s most important is the video quality since that is the preferred format and that has been leaps and bounds beyond any, android that I have previously owned. There have been some software glitches, but nothing as bad as what I experienced on android. As for the ecosystem, I’m really loving the functionality between my devices. It’s made me much more productive. I do feel the capitalist scheme working on me though lol. I was perfectly happy to stay with my Samsung watch. I prefer the look of them quite a bit to the Apple Watch, however, since I’ve gotten into using things like Apple health and having watched the release trailer for the new Apple Watch I feel, a sudden desire. The only thing I won’t break on is the AirPods. After looking into them for my boyfriend‘s birthday and going through all the specs, I realized that even a Samsung buds model from years ago, outperforms the standard AirPods, and I simply refuse to pay all that money for the AirPods Pro, when people say that the quality is mediocre and I can get the same benefits out of my Samsung buds that I already own. There are some minor things that I miss about the android experience, but I expected this, and it’s nowhere near as bad as I feared it would be. I find that iOS and One UI have become quit similar experiences these days, with the only major differentiation being the ecosystem.
Been an Android user from the beginning and love it (team Samsung) . However, I have also been a Mac user (exclusively) since the early 90s and I would like to experience the full ecosystem. Waiting for the release of the iPhone 15, to take the plunge.
I'm in exactly the same boat (though I have a Pixel, not a Samsung)
I’ve been in the opposite boat. Apple eco system for over 10 years and I’m tired of thinking it’s the best. I genuinely think anything other than apple sucks. So I’m planning to quit apple and go all in on Android/windows. I’ll make a video on it soon.
@@thesamuelnamBoth Chromebooks and Windows laptops are well-compatible with Any Android device. You can Use your Android device with any iMac/MacBook, but I don't think it's worth it.
Excuse my ignorance but the mac has been out since the 90s? 😮😮😮 Woow!
@@thesamuelnamooh, please do. 😊😊
Buying an iPhone is like moving into a fully furnished house - just bring your towels and toothbrush, and you’re all set. I appreciate this video detailing how Apple’s interfaces are meticulously designed, sparing users from the hassle of customization. Personally, I don’t require much from my phone and lack the time to tweak every setting for each app. I agree that the iMessage and app optimization are selling points. The iPhone’s popularity in America stems from its plug-and-play simplicity - it’s ready to use without a manual. As a college student, my iPhone serves more than just communication; it’s a multi tool for saving notes, managing tasks, recording lectures, and scanning documents . Plus, iCloud storage ensures seamless access to my media across all devices. After over 10 years of using the iPhone, I am satisfied with the phone’s performance.
New viewer here and this was definitely a well made video! Keep up the good work mate 👍🏽
I feel like a lot of your concerns will be addressed if you use a Pixel?
I’ve tried the Pixel. I would much prefer the S22 Ultra though if I had to switch.
@@TheTechMillennial the s23 will solve 90 percent of what u said the 8 gen 1 chip is trash
You can still do the swipe gestures in android; you can also have the screen brighter its just in the settings, Google messages is just as good if not better, and a green text means nothing . All of the features are just hidden; if you just take some time to set them up!
Beautifully crafted video
Wondering how you created the widget on your iPhone? Is that a result of Jailbreak? Or from standard iOS
No jailbreak required, it’s an app called Widgy!
Beautiful wallpaper on android. Any links?
How did you get those 4 apps on your iPhone home screen to stay towards the bottom right? That's one of the main reasons i didn't like my iPhone. The apps always go to the top.
same question. new iphone user here. less than 24 hours but i am totally loving it!
Same. Can somebody answer that? That's one of the things that drives me insane about iOS.
It could be empty widget
@@brewski13I think he said it was an app called widgy
You took every word you said right out of my mouth. 💯
After >10 years of Android phones (mostly Samsung) I switched to a 13PM in 2021 and I still enjoy the IOS experience. Not missing anything - no regrets.
I am thinking of switching for a variety of reasons but mostly for things like app optimization, camera, iMessage, and facetime. My frustrations stem from how divided both operating systems are but ultimately if I had to switch I want to become an iOS user. Is the switch easy? I am sort of nervous because I feel like the transition would be really difficult
that is surprising after how garbage the ios experience has become over the years, loved loved loved iOS for years up until the past cpl major updates. That and the design language starts to look incredibly outdated after seeing the same icons for the past 10 years.
I just brought iphone 15 pro max from s20 ultra had enough of it and my last iPhone was iphone 6
Couldn't disagree more. Switched to iPhone after 12 years and just realised how delusional I was with those fancy gimmick features of android. I'd rather have consistent, reliability and speed then a full loaded gimmick android which becomes trash after 1 year
You can actually customize the toggles/layout of the control center, it’s just nowhere near as intuitive as Android.
What I love most about IPhone is how easy it is to connect with other IPhone users when your in a group chat or FaceTime it’s amazing how great and high quality the videos and pictures are Android users don’t get to experience that but at least android phones have great battery life and they can download music and emulators
Sorry for your loss 😢
GREAT video! I'm reluctantly leaving my Note 20 Ultra primarily because of all friends and family having iphone so iMessage is the biggest draw. Losing expandable memory card and amazing camera and zoom is unfortunate.
Im sticking with Android. I switched over from iPhone. And honestly i'm never going back. I love my Pixel. I definitely don't care about the blue and green bubble debate. Its stupid i don't care about what others have to say
Same here team pixel . I enjoy the AI features that are only available on pixel devices , And Are you in the U.S cus here , people make the Imessage thing a cult 😂 it's annoying but I really do not care
I would definitely like to see a video about the interface design
Thought about switching to android, but I have like 6k pics and videos that if I transfer using Google photos, I can no longer send them to iOS via texts
What I don’t get: Every person is ready to install every social media garbage app but nobody wants a single app to receive pictures of the children? The people in the us are strange.
Receive pictures of children?
@@jackdundas1741 saw the video?
Does iPhones has video player?whenever u were sent a video on whatsapp where to go and watch it?
All those things he says about android you can also do with apple. I can use a stylus with my iphone 15 , can change the lock screen short cuts, toggles are customizable as far as adding them in. What i see from apple is less needed b/s with customization that i find tacky with android and you also get no bloatware with iphone or carrier bloatware that takes up space. Before iphone i was always using android and now i have an iphone I don’t think im going back. Only actual real difference i found between the two is usability and that is as far as the cursor goes when typing and needing to make a change. I’ve always used pc and now that ive tried the iphone i think im going to get a mac now. With apple they have never been wrong with form and function doesn’t seem to be lagging. Performance is amazing which Ive experienced issues with on high end androids and this phone has by far the best battery life ive ever experienced. People have complained about iphone getting too hot and ive noticed that has to do with the GPS always on and when i have location off my phone is actually always cold even while im using it watching movies or whatever so don’t mind others little pet peeves and just get an iphone all the b/s of world is all around us and the market has everything to do with it, people want to buy in at low costs then spike the punch for gains afterwards. Singular or plural there is always one amongst the few and this is the one 🖕to look out for because that’s all of them and most likely not you
Apple's big advantage is that they produce as well hardware and software. Android does not have that, its a "one fits all" - solution since the software has to be able to handle a huge variety of hardware. Thats why iOS UI feels so smooth and android often does not. Therefore I have high expectations of Google's Pixel-phones. iMessage seems to be an US-only problem. Over here in Europe we use Whatsapp or RCS and it works perfectly fine. In fact iMessage is one of Apple's tricks to keep ppl within the ecosystem, while refusing to go with the trend. To me Apple has become uninnovative. They did not want to use USB-C, they sell old hardware for high prices, they dont pick up "new" technology like RCS (Google introduced RCS in 2015 i believe...) and so on. Sure with iOS you get decent battery life, good camera and an overall smooth system. But you got that with the last 10 versions of iPhone too. There is a ton of features android offers for years that never made it into apples ecosystem. There is nothing really new, nothing really exciting. iPhones are boring and for the most part outdated.
Reliability and speed is number 1 for me on a phone. I don't care for "exciting" features that I'll never use. No phone will impress me like booting up my windows pc and having hundreds of apps open will.
@@portman8909iPhone literally restricts 'back' swipe only to one side lol(To make it ridiculous, left side lol) and still uses their ridiculous notch!
@@portman8909 iOS, like android, is based on GNU Linux. Dont bring up windows in this. But of course, if you don't have high expectations of a phone and are happy to pay twice as much for half the performance - go for it.
@@Austria002 IOS uses unix and Android is googlefied Linux. It doesn’t really matter what they are. My desktop machine is far more capable than any flagship phone today. For both productivity and gaming. It’s not even close. Show me a phone that plays division 2 1440p at 165 fps?
@@portman8909 What in the world are you talking about? You are comparing a windows desktop PC to mobile devices running an entirely different system with an entirely different purpose. This topic here is about phones, not PCs Feel free to carry a PC with you, id rather stick to a phone for being on the go and leave the PC in my office.
Love both system. Only IMHO * * * Android + flexibility and accessibility: ++ file system ++ USB C ++ quick charge ++ AOD ++ split screen ++ multitasking ++ swipe back + Google Assistant But, Android - instability: -- notification (live own life) -- freezing -- bugs (for example - spell checker works and don't works) -- support (upgrade) - apps has weaker functionality and performance * * *iPhone - conservatism: -- close ecosystem -- technologies adopts slowly (USB C, AOD, Quick Charge) -- weaker customization -- truncated multitasking - higher price But, iPhone + stability and reliability: ++ software works properly (notifications, reminders, home kit) ++ quality of hardware (speakers, display, camera) ++ long time support (updates) ++ higher quality of soft + ecosystem: ++ Phone, Watch, Pad, Laptop, PC, Headphone etc. has unity and works like one whole system ++ synchronization ++backups + accessories (whole industry) + liquidity (retain price, easy to trade) With Android you feel freedom but can't fully rely on your device. You can do more, but need more efforts and attention to set up, adjust, customize, fix, check etc. ) With iPhone you feel cramped but can rely on your device. You can do less, but, with this, need less efforts and attention. It's really just work. After some time I catch Apple's philosophy: Begin with simplicity. Do less to achieve more. First things first. For example: I shoveled tons of productivity apps (Todoist, TickTick, Any Do, Craft, Notion etc.etc.) but returned to where I've started Apple Notes and Reminders: simple, less functional, has some inconvenient, but in real life situations - when you need to do things done it's just works from scratch, without any adjustments, learning curves etc. I achieved more with this simple apps, than with tens hours of Notion tutorials )) Wish the bets for everyone )Show less
Can you do a review on the S23 ultra
I can so relate to this - I am not even from the US but have so many friends & relatives that iMessage has become an integral part of how we communicate. To add to it my entire family uses iPhone here in India which means iCloud, Photos, every other accessory & device is Apple. I want to switch to Android and try to keep doing it, actually wasting more money simply because I love the customization and freedom it offers. But ultimately, I have to switch back, every single time.
I honestly dont blame you, ive been thinking about switching back to iphone as of late. Ive been with android user for a soild 8 years now. But yeah Android is becoming super dull... Also ive notice quite a bit of crashing,bugs, battery just isnt that good, stand by as well. Getting videos in messages on Android from iphone is horrid, I'm glad you pointed that out!! Definitely such an annoyance considering that my family uses iPhones. It's gotten so bad I just ignore the videos now. But its the same thing vice versa sending a video to a iPhone user its just as bad 😂 The refinements on Apple has gotten so much better then the 11,12,13 iterations!! Now Samsung is literally taking the same page out of Apple's book Since Galaxy s22ultra and now with the s24 ultra coming out it's literally the same phone as s22 ultra. So 3 years now with the exact same body refinements what a joke😅 android is only better then iphone in The aspect of it's not locked or limited within its OS and customization, charging speeds, multitasking! That's honestly it though, iphone is WAY MORE POLISHED on the OS, better battery life,BETTER STAND BY TIME, better ecosystem,better apps, magsafe is super dope,iMessage is way better then RCS gimmick! 😂 Currently on a fold 5 and at first i loved it but now just bored, along with my annoyances from andriod. Really thinking about getting the iphone 15 pro max.
I just got the 24 ultra, amazing phone, but the ergonomics suck! I can't even hold this thing in 1 hand...
I switched recently to apple from android and I can say that the only thing that bothers me is the fact that every app that on android is free on iOS it is not!
I am watching this in 2024 and it's safe to say with new updates on the s23 ultra some of things you said based on your feelings as being better has been really much improved on the s23. But iPhone is also really good with their work no doubt.
Do you store all of those photos in iCloud, or do you backup all those photos in iCloud? There is a difference and its one of my biggest issues with iCloud. If you really stored them there then you could delete them off your local device like I do with my pixel and still access them on your phone.
Switched to the 14 pro max after using mostly galaxy phones from my s7 edge,s9 and ending with my s20 fe
I just made the switch recently from the S22 ultra to the 13 pro max. I feel like such a traitor. Lol. I still have my S22 but I like the feel of the 13 pro max much better. Just wish the keyboard had a few more features.
I had no idea about the ability to send media such as video. 🤔. Is that true ?
Annoying thing I have experienced with iPhones are 1. Doesn't have torrent app 2. Offline music or video player
Signal app can send quality videos between Android and iPhone. That's what me and my daughter use.
I use a Alcatel 1 2021 and it runs Andirod 11 Go edition and it`s first phone and I like it
Every daily use takes 2-3 extra steps. Even typing this message I don't need to change the screen. Apple is frustrating to try to use or learn to use 🤷🏼♂️
Back to Android. I only left because I had heard the rave reviews of the iphone camera, and Android, circa Pixel 3, was pretty horrible. Pixel Fold for me now. I still think the Pixel camera is better. I'm in the Google drive system, and photo uploads from iphone to drive, is a pain.
Snapdraon 8 Gen 3 : 17 million instructions / second. But A17 : 10 million instructions / second. Android Users : Hmm.. OKEY !
S-Beam be like, it's only been 21 years, give them some time to figure it out. Also, it's all about privacy when you realize that apple keeps a copy online of every single file that you have on the device so i can deliver it in 4k to any other iphone user.
I'm waiting on the iphone 15 pro max. I've been team android for years and have never owned an iPhone but I'm wanting something different and easier to use
The intro beat hard af
i recently switched from ios to samsung android,android is unbelievabale,,more shortcuts & more automations in android,i dont know about other android phones
Yes I agree. You need iMessage and facetime if you live in the US.
Don't americans use whatsapp, FB or social medias like that to be called or messaged on ?
Everything you said about why you like iPhone over android is spot on .im an android fan myself that’s why I’m really hoping google takes a page out of apple book
12:00 And how did you order the apps like that on iPhone!?
Great video. As soon as I think I’m switching to S23 ultra, I’m reminded of all the pics and videos in iMessage. Locked in for sure.
Do not switch to s23 ultra is horrendous, had to send two back because of faults, and this one is just as bad, the screen is washed out compared to previous samsungs, I'm here right now trying to persuade myself to move to iphone, only thing stopping me if the last of a back button and no notification bar oh and the slow charging on iphones, they're the only reasons I haven't yet swapped it out
Maybe iphone 15 might make me switch it up
@@danielmillett4738what the actual f😂 been using for 4 months and have used every samsung apple flagship. You're lying or had bad luck with faulty devices😢
iPhones last me 6-7 years. Longest I’ve had a android was 2
Great video. I too am in the situation where most people I know are on iPhone and with a new baby it's very frustrating when video doesn't come through. Add onto that I use a Mac at work and it's really made me consider the iPhone 15 when it launches even though I have had a Samsung since the first Galaxy. It's surprisingly tough to actually make the decision to switch but I feel like it might finally be time.
Am i the only one who likes the ios ui and iphones design, idk wether to switch?
Being a person that has used both apple and samsung Rn I use an Iphone as far me personally am concerned I really barely remember me customizing my phone that often yea its a nice feature to have but not a deal breaker or fixer for me If u’d ask me abt this when i was 13 yea maybe I’d go for the samsung due to customization but being grown up now I realize why ppl buy iphones , what I m concerned with personally is that I don’t game too much its usually just social media and a bit of work And I really don’t wanna be upgrading every 2 years Even if u have an iphone x it would prolly still work fine The thing with samsungs is that I personally don’t think it is as long lasting as an iPhone With apps having better optimization overall and a more fluid layout In simple words its just ur prefrerence what phone u wanna use
i didnt feel that the iphone was optimized when i switched.. It's so limited...
How does iPhone has good build quality? The back is glass. You drop it. It will break. I had an iPhone and the battery expanded causing the screen to come off.
I’ve been an apple user for 9 years. What frustrates me is that nothing usually changes with Apple. On the other I’ve attempted to switch from IOS to android THREE TIMES but I always end up going back to the store and returning it for an iPhone with a week of purchasing it. I’m way too adapted to the software that switching is so mentally draining. But it’s still frustrates me how little to nothing changes with Apple every time I upgrade I feel like I’m paying for the title not the new features.
What's the name of the background music?
Doesn't Apple know people use private VPNs?
That into is so awesome
I have both Samsung S24 Ultra and an IPhone 15 pro max. I have a Mac and an iPad. I also have a Mac at work. Arguably, the S24 is better in many ways but I have lots of issues with Google Assistant understanding simple commands like making WhatsApp calls. For some reason I can never get it to work consistently and I get it you can do lots more with GA but Siri in my experience is way faster, understands me better and just gets the job done. And believe me I have been through every setting video because I really wanted to work for me. Another reason, the iPhone is much lighter and easy to hold with one hand and the keyboard is now and days way better and faster. Also, camera. I love the photos coming out from Samsung but the difference is minimal. Video, however, is much better from the iPhone. The stability and dynamic range is insane on the 15PM. I really love my s24 but the pros are not enough for me to replace all my apple ecosystem. Plus everyone at work and family has an iPhone. As much as would not follow the flow, it is really convenient to use airdrop and the copy paste. After almost 4 month, I had made my decision. I will keep my iPhone for convenience, not because it is the best phone, but because it is the best phone for me personally.
Using both android & iphone❤
