iOS 18 on iPhone 15 Pro Max Review - GOODBYE S24 ULTRA?!

I’ve been using iOS 18 on my iPhone 15 Pro Max for the past three days and I have a lot of thoughts. iOS reminds me of android a lot, the customization options, the widgets, resizing icons and a lot more. Apple intelligence is one the key reasons why I’m intrigued by iOS 18, Siri in now supercharged and can do so much. But will iOS 18 and apple intelligence on the iPhone 15 Pro Max be enough to switch from my S24 Ultra to the iPhone 15 Pro Max?

“Goodbye S24 ultra” most baitest title on KZbin ever

[@creationofroses90]

I hate the click bait titles it's so annoying like come up with something different and new

[@RjeyTech]

Kind of, the question mark doesn’t make it click bait imo

[@creationofroses90]

​@@RjeyTechI didn't see that thank you for mentioning it

[@RjeyTech]

@@creationofroses90 haha no problem.. it’s tough for small channels like mine to compete with bigger channels for views. Sometimes a little click bait goes a long way 😉

[@creationofroses90]

@@RjeyTech I actually love your channel you made me purchase the z fold from Samsung and I love it

[@JRwyattt]

I think the volume button animation is a sign that a capacitive volume rocker is coming. The animation will help ppl know what button they are pressing . That’s my thought.

[@RjeyTech]

Seems like something Apple would do

You are very smart 😅

[@RjeyTech]

Apple intelligence might do it for me lol 🐬🐬

[@WorthyOfAWar]

I uninstalled 18 Beta from my 15 Pro….at first I didn’t really see any bugs at all but then I happened to check the storage on my phone a couple days in and it was using 77gb of system data. Apparently it’s piling up cache and all that in the background. I got some storage back after restarting but it quickly used the storage again….so keep an eye on your storage if trying the Beta. If your storage maxes out in the background it’ll jack your phone up.

[@RjeyTech]

Oh wow 😮

[@WorthyOfAWar]

@RjeyTech yea keep an eye out bro if your on Beta

[@canyoncanyon2017]

Nice video, sir! I'm an Apple user, but I appreciate Samsung for always trying to innovate. With iOS 18 on the horizon, do you think Apple has finally bridged the gap between iOS and Android in terms of customization? Love from Nigeria 🇳🇬

[@titaskumarkoley]

Hey, just wanted to know did your camera quality and photos quality in gallery reduce?

[@RjeyTech]

Nope

[@flexbtx]

🐬 Great Video!

[@charleyu5506]

The only thing that caught my attention was the eye scrolling feature but I would need to try it out for myself because I could see it getting old if it makes your eyes tired.

[@jblazer49]

Its kind of does and it's finicky

[@cryptoknight3009]

First time watching ur video, good info an damn so now iphones will be just as customisable as Android?

[@RjeyTech]

Yea lol it’s wild, thanks for checking out the channel!

[@TanveerAhmed-dk3rp]

​@@RjeyTechis better then google assistant?

[@RjeyTech]

Much better

[@wallacemiranda373]

Split screen?

[@KatekyoKen]

Maybe it’s just me but I don’t care for customization at all. Back when I had android it was cool but using iPhone for 7 years now I like that it just works don’t feel like heavily customizing it with ugly colorful icons. I just like it standard with a few widgets.

[@RjeyTech]

It’s understandable that some users would want a cleaner experience and not customize their phones. I like it, it’s been fun messing around with the home screen

[@killacardec8337]

Agreed.

[@kingsolomon6900]

Most Apple users have no customization. Most of them are dead and users

[@willbuschmann]

LOL, that volume slider has been on samsung for 2 years. I just had to check my iPhone to see what everyone was on about.

[@RjeyTech]

Really lol? I don’t have it on my s24 ultr a

[@user-wj6fn9do9w]

So what phone would you pick galaxy s24 ultra or iPhone 15 pro max on iOS 18???

[@RjeyTech]

Did you watch till the end

[@sstrafer]

🐬 I will wait for the fold 6 and after that decide what phone will be in my pocket this fall, iphone 16 pro max or galaxy fold 6. Some of the AI is impressive but I think that in a dayli use you will hardly use it.

[@RjeyTech]

Thanks for watching! 🐬🐬the z fold 6 is looking like the phone to get, we will see what happens this fall. Apple intelligence really impressed me.

[@kavinab6629]

[@tytownsend8219]

The only thing I was excited about at WWDC was Math Notes in the calculator app, using the pencil too solve problems. Hope Android gets this..

[@RjeyTech]

Android will get it for sure, but nonetheless it was impressive

[@willbuschmann]

No chance android get this. App developers dont care enough about android to get apps like that.

[@SilentRunnerSpeaks]

🐬I’m super excited for Apple intelligence, and I love the customization finally coming to the iPhone. Although it’s fair to knock Apple for copying features that Android has had for years… I will say that when apple does introduce these features to iOS, they usually do them a lot cleaner. For instance the color theming of app icons usually needs a third party on Android and I still find that a bunch of apps don’t adapt the theming. We’ll see in the fall if Apple can have this for all apps… I’m not a developer, but it feels like this is a larger hurdle than it seems.

[@RjeyTech]

I’m just glad the iPhone is finally customizable, we waited so long for this. The competition is heating up and I love to see it. Thanks for watching! 🐬🐬🐬

[@burke985]

This update sucks tbh, the app color thing is stupid it just tints everything . AirPod volume level is greatly reduced

[@paulonvula6495]

I'm an Android user through and through and never gave a sniff on Apple stuffs. Too rigid and tedious for me in their approach, feels more like a prison for a tech explorer. Good that they are finally opening up.

[@jedolivier2688]

Hopefully, Apple incorporates a non - reflective screen. It’s like you’re looking in a mirror. This would be one of the biggest upgrades that can be made. That & a larger battery. Not 4676 mah, either. It’s 2024 Apple. 5000 mah battery, APPLE!

[@RjeyTech]

Yes! A non reflective coating would be Amazing, I love it on the s24 ultra
