My personal phone is an S21 Ultra and my work phone is an iPhone 14 Pro Max. I can never recommend the latter. While the build is nice, it feels about 3 generations behind my Samsung, and my Samsung is a year older. Split screen is still an irritating ommission on IOS. I will concede that the notification switch is a spectacularly practical feature for someone who jumps in an out of meetings a lot, but it's the only feature I can say I'd like on my personal phone.

Apple software updates are not a plus at all. They make you change your phone by slowing down your set.

[@Spamua13]

I’ve used apple all of my life. Finally decided to get the pixel 8. From what i can tell the only “downside” to switching is the apple commitment to making it as hard as possible for your data to not be easily transferrable across platforms. Apple works well, but only works well with apple. If you can get past this everything else is an upside. Better cost to performance ratio on devices and far more customizability. So tired of being pigeonholed screw apple.

[@Pectus72]

And most important: 1) More advertisments on Android 2) HW and SW less reliable on Android 3) less security on Android 4) less privacy on Android 5) Android devices are less snappy eg camera shutter works slower, even on Android flagship devices

[@thedinosaurz]

Thats a lie, you get more ads on iPhone That’s a bs lie, apple slows down their phones every year so the hardware and software dies out so quick within 3 months No phone is truly secure, not even android or iPhone. They both have biometric unlocks, that removes your stupid security statement You have so much privacy in android, compared to iPhone it’s embarrasing how terrible iPhone is, they can’t even disable “anonymous diagnostics” That’s a lie, if you’re using a $130 android phone then yes, it will be bad

[@thedinosaurz]

Burst shots on androids exists bud

[@gaker19sc]

1) No, on iOS, almost every smaller app I have tested had some ads, while on my Xiaomi 12t, I have not seen an ad since a ling time. 2) no idea what HW and SW are 3) This is a myth, Android is actually very safe. If you install a virus, that's your own fault. The reason people think Apple is safer is because they don't allow you to install anything that was not manually approved my them. Quite annoying. 4) You haven't got privacy on iPhone either. Everyone is spying on you, you just have to choose who you want to have your data 5) From my experience, Android devices are a lot snappier and more fun to use, especially when you turn down the animation scale in the settings. It makes everything feel very snappy while iOS tries to make everything smooth. Both are fine, I prefer the snappy variant because it gets you somewhere in about half the amount of time. Camera shutter speeds depend on the phone, most Androids have a Fast Motion mode or something similar, and especially the Huawei phones are really impressive in this regard, they can take a clean picture of a spinning DVD without motion blur. It's crazy tech.

Good luck, I have a lot of Apple products as well and I’ve tried several times to switch to Android. It’s extremely difficult giving up that Apple ecosystem, but if you can do it then good for you!

Nice video, felt objective and to the point! About the "amazing" Apple Support Service though...

I watch videos on s22 it does play content better because it's screen is with no notch.

I switched to an iphone and after 2 weeks the signal dropped completely and the phone is stuck in sos mode. Tried all guides online nothing worked. This never happened on a cheap android... Beyond disappointed.

[@oddsnends3090]

Sounds to me like you accidentally switched on airplane mode.

[@AliElwasief]

Bro. I only tried iPhone and I instantly santed to go back

[@rob_htx7371]

I’ve had iPhone all my life. I even just got the 15Pro. But all the comments are making me feel a lot better about switching over. It’s gonna suck that I’ll have to redownload all my Apple Music to Spotify ( I have a crap tone of music Lol)

[@Dalton_Parker]

At least you can still do apple music haha

[@Crvowner2022]

I have an iPhone 13 Pro Max, iPhone 13, iPad 9th gen and an Apple Watch Series 7. I’m ready to drop them for android specifically the S24 ultra and the galaxy watch 6. Much cheaper bill from T-Mobile and I don’t want Apple anymore

[@Dalton_Parker]

Deep in the eco system I see!

[@the3gamingnerds458]

Yeah I had the iPhone 14 plus and switched over to the note 20 ultra and I'm really happy with my decision. At least for me.

[@LeoDas688]

Why don't people keep their old iPhone while switching to Android, so they can still be able to use apple ecosystem

[@Dalton_Parker]

Some people do but not everyone I guess can justify keeping two thousand dollar devices haha, it’s definitely easier though.

[@DarthAwar]

Samsung 4 to 5 years, Pixel 7 Year's, Nothing 7 years, Fairphone 7 years

[@jayneljay5905]

switching from iPhone to Android is very easy, not considering the eco system, just phone by itself. But switching from Android to iPhone, is one hell of a serious downgrade. You just loose a lot in terms of how android software is just fast to operate that IOS.

[@JJTM96]

This is my take on this topic i know I'm late and just saw this video on my recommendation list. This is unfair comparison of Android and IOS(iPhone ). There's a lot of ecosystem on Android like Google ecosystem / Samsung ecosystem / Huawei ecosystem etc. You can't just say iPhone vs Android . Because iPhone has 1 ecosystem and compared it to the Android that have many ecosystem depending on the brands of the Android .

[@oken6466]

I'm thinking of switching from the iPhone xr to the normal s23, but I'm wondering if it would be a downgrade since I do have an apple watch series seven and an iPad gen 8. Should I break the ecosystem for more storage and customization options?

[@Dalton_Parker]

Probably not, if you are already in the apple ecosystem then an iPhone is still king

[@DefinitelyNotMyRealName]

Keep iPad to use iMessage and other stuff that you can use with friends like sending quality pics and videos

[@martinspedding4210]

Moving to any Android phone will be a significant upgrade from an iphone

[@Fexertt]

Buy a iPhone 15 lol. The Xr is very very old so anything you get will be an upgrade

[@martinspedding4210]

​@@PovertyDeadlifteryes, better UI, better integration with other platforms and better cameras

[@TheGamerTazz]

My watch 6 and i13 are few years old now, thinking of switching with s25

[@sebs30v]

For me Apple has more polished apps and they works flawlessly. Android apps are more hit or miss. When I text my family from any Android phone to their iPhones, the messages, pics, video never show up right. Apple is more conservative, they do things slow but they do it very well. Android is more about getting their first no matter the cost.

[@Dalton_Parker]

Basically

[@ninjanerdstudent6937]

I have actually dealt with the opposite. After 12 years of iphone use, I have dealt with thousands of persistent and repetitive app crashes. Knowing that Apple openly slows down the iphones in updates has forced me to stay way from updates completely. The slowdowns have dramatically crippled my ability to do what I want to do on a phone. Speaking of which, you can actually do anything you want to do on Android. The possibilities truly are endless on Android.

[@NoThankUBeQuiet]

That happens because Android to IPhone is old school mms technology which means everything gets compressed. Happens in reverse too. RCS messages are just fine but Apple won't support them

[@callmeNeno]

Developers know where the money is; Android fanboys & girls are cheapos want everything for free and don’t want to pay for apps

Lol i switched from a 14 pro to a Razr 2023 😂, i didnt look back

[@Lpshaw4661]

I’ve tried switching a couple of times to Android but that damn Apple eco system keeps me coming back. I love the galaxy phones, I think they’re great but I hate that Apple has me by the balls. If it wasn’t for iMessage I would make the switch.

[@Santos-er9wv]

I hope that doesn't happen to me bro cause I'm switching to Android for the first time I'm still thinking about that I always been with iPhone

[@Lpshaw4661]

@@Santos-er9wv My biggest recommendation, if you have any important iMessage group chats that you text in regularly I would either remove yourself from that group chat or at least let those people know that you’re switching to android and that a new group will need to be created after you switch. That is hands down, the biggest headache about switching, is dealing with group messages and converting them to new ones. If you can get past that point, then you should be good to go. Good luck man, Androids are awesome!

[@fernandobatista6783]

@@Santos-er9wvhello, did you end up making the change and how you feel about iMessage now ?

[@jawadqaisrani3244]

For me iMessage is not a huge deal since I have most of my contacts on WhatsApp. My main issue is the synchronicity with notes, photos, reminders and then handsoff, copy and paste features plus as much as i am bored of ios I must admit that Apple is more organised. I so want to switch to S24 Ultra but I know when the honeymoon period is over, I will miss having an iPhone so hence staying with my iPhone 12 mini for now.

[@fernandobatista6783]

@@jawadqaisrani3244 wow thank you for sharing that, I appreciate it. Definitely couple of things to keep in mind lol. I will also do something like that, where I’ll keep my iphone while having the samsung and that way I could use iPhone whenever. I use iMessage a lot 😅

Sleep tracking on the Apple Watch is keeping me in the Apple Eco system. Everything else seems to be workaroundable except that.

[@bizolekool]

It's really not that difficult for Mac machines and Android smartphones to co-exist. I'm outside the US so I couldn't give two hoots (as those arrogant, entitled yanks like to say) about blue bubbles versus green bubbles. The rest of the world uses WhatsApp, Signal etc... I mean, whatvtype of people discriminate and hate on others simply because of your choice of smartphone (green bubble, blue bubble?!) Samsung makes great smartphones and Apple also makes excellent products, but come on people.

[@silgueiros9083]

The iPhone keyboard is absolutely shocking!! It is killing everything that’s good about iPhone. I can’t understand why it’s so poor.

[@gordonb1737]

Hopefully someone can answer a question for me regarding the file systems. When I plug my Android to my Windows pc via usb, my android file system becomes part of my pc file system, just like an external hard drive, which is super nice. Is it the same with i-phone and Macbooks?

You have to turn off iMessage in the settings on iOS. I'm not sure if you figured this out already.

You can use Apple music on Android and Apple TV on your television, for other Apple apps and services I have my iPad an MacBook Pro, but the S23U in my opinion it's cumple of levels up compared to the iPhone

I don't care about the 🍎 ecosystem.
