Are you currently "locked" into an ecosystem? If so, which one? And, are you planning to make a change sometime soon?

yes android+windows laptop . Was having a though that I should buy macbook but stick with android phones but was really paranoid that maybe somehow macbook won't even work without iphone but after your video i will definitely consider macbook.windows laptops just dont have great performance to efficiency ratio like macbooks.

​@@nihalbhamrah4726 airpods, like Samsung Buds, have a big defect: they use their own codecs (for airpods they lock some features on other devices, same Samsung plus you'll miss their SSC codec that is an APTX+). Don't get me wrong, a good sounding speaker is better than any luxury codec or feature, but if you usually listen to high bitrate music, you'll probably be able to hear the lack of bit depth. Lots of people are happy with airpods and Android, but it is better to ask to people who use this combo everyday.

So the multi brand eco system community is very vibrant. I rock macbook pro, ipad, S24 plus, watch 6 classic and buds 3 pro. Like probably the rest of you I make the most of cross platform apps to join my devices together. Works seemlessly. I am an average user so don't feel the need to have the same logo on everything, and enjoy the freedom of using the best tool for my needs. My set up is the best one for me.

During that time I was in part frustrated with some of the fragmentation I had trying to make things work together. I do see some light at the end of the tunnel using android and Mac. As far as home file sharing if you are tech you can create a shared drive on your computer or network for all devices.

After getting an iPhone after years of being an Android person I ended up switching to a MacBook and getting an iPad.

I'll end up switching back to Android but keeping the Mac and iPad and using a similar workflow as you do.

So is nice to see a video like this as encouragement that it works.

Hey, I have the same MacBook + Samsung setup for myself. Works like a charm with third party apps indeed. And if it helps, I’m using messaging apps like Signal or WhatsApp as airdrop replacement when I need to send quick files to myself or friends. It works like a charm. Otherwise AirDroid is a nice alternative to look into. I hope this helps!

Got my first MacBook in Feb 2022 (Air M1 512GB) when I was still daily driving S20 FE and it was going really fine. Upgraded to iPhone 15 Plus in Feb this year and I don’t know if I like “the ecosystem” more than my previous setup. Air Drop and continuity camera are cool, but I like the Android Files Transfer method better than with an iPhone. Like, basic file explorer based copy and paste. I have a PC and it’s not a problem to do file explorer based copy and paste from iPhone to PC, but I still can’t figure it out how to do it in Mac. I also love the video recording quality, and audio quality of the iPhone (mics and speakers). But I kinda miss OneUI features. Probably gonna switch back to S25 Plus or S24 Ultra next year. Wanted to go S24 Plus but in my country, it comes with the exynoss chipset rather than the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3.

I felt the same way about Microsoft with regards to security (at least at an enterprise level; Windows and Office have always been all over the place) but their security incidents over the past couple of years, as well as the incredibly thoughtless introduction of their Recall feature as part of their Copilot+ launch, have made me reconsider that, even with them seemingly now prioritizing security as a result of all that's happened.

As for file transfer, I am a unique scenario where I do self-host a decent amount of my own services, and I use a self-hosted instance of Snapdrop to drag and drop stuff across devices, just works well.

I use KDE connect to transfer photos and files from the S22 Ultra to aMacBook Pro M2 max and viceversa. I synced Samsung calendar and apple calendar with google calendar, so when I add or edit events in either calendar it will show in the other ones. The only reason to do this is to feel the calendar native experience while using the S22 or the macbook, it's not really necessary, you could go with Google Calendar only; this was only a personal choice. I mostly manage my notes in the S22 with samsung notes, in case I need a note synced in both devices I use OneNote. And for messages I use Google Messages and Whatsapp. I don't see myself switching to iphone any time soon.

It's actually just the stock One UI launcher with different icons! The icons are based off "Icon pack black and white" from Icon Pack Studio. I just tuned the transparency and colors a bit :) Will be a making a video very soon about my entire phone setup so stay tuned if you're interested!

My dream is to own a Pixel phone and a Macbook. Apple should start dealing away with its 'locking in' business type. Let people choose the devices they'd love to make their eco-systems out of.

확실하게 ios랑 안드로이드를 같이 쓸려면 어쩔 수 없이 같은 앱을 기반으로 둘 다 깔아서 쓰는 수밖에 없군요... 맥북쓰면 그냥 아이폰 쓰는 게 편해 보이네요 ㅋㅋㅋ

Amazing. It was this video I was looking for. I have the same case: Samsung phone and Macbook Pro. My biggest issue is to transfer big files (videos) from S23 Ultra to Macbook. I didnt know Google Photos was available as an app to download into macbook. I think this will be my solution. Thanks a lot

Cool video. I'm in kind of the opposite position right now - iPhone with a Windows PC. I have a MacBook as well and frankly prefer macOS over Windows, but it's more of an occasional use device I share with my partner these days. I mainly still use Apple ecosystem stuff, but supplement as needed with other services - a dash of Google stuff here and there to fill in the gaps, really. I'd say it gets me like 85% of the way there, compared to just living fully "in-ecosystem". Totally workable, but I do find myself grumbling here and there about random inconvenient edge cases.

It`s rly easy to work with none firts party devices and apps. When my iphone broke I got a Pixel 7 and making it work with my Mac was no problem at all. Since then I relaized that I have come to prefer MacOS over Windows or ChromeOS for my Computer and Googles version of android as my mobile OS of choice. Its rly not that big of a deal.

I use a custom ROM on my dying Moto G100, and Linux Mint on my Latitude 5290 2-in-1. The devices barely talk to each other. Web browser sync sometimes works (?), email mostly works, and I use a cable for everything else.

@@AzureRT456 I got it with a dead fingerprint reader. Then, actually randomly my vibration motor went on the spritz. A new charge port didn't help, and a new vibration motor also didn't do anything to help. So when random components fail and replacing them does not help, I'd say "dying" is the correct word to describe the device.

For me I have everything Apple but I wouldn’t mind switching my phone if it wasn’t for my Apple Watch. I think the s23 is super neat and a great price for features (comparable to 15 pro at half the price)
