Long time Samsung user. Switched to iPhone for awhile but couldn't believe how inflexible iOS was. Went back to Samsung.

[@nikhilkoganti]

I'm curious. What were some of the things you noticed that were different or missing in iOS. I am owner of an older Oneplus phone and am planning to switch to an iPhone in the future

[@LaptopEnthusiast]

​@@nikhilkoganti it wouldn't be worth it Infact i think newer ColorOS based UI is better than iOS I use a budget oppo phone as a second phone (along a primary iPhone) and tend to use the oppo more cuz the software is so customizable and I've never noticed any bugs

[@joneslukas]

@@nikhilkoganti I’ve switched from Note10 to iPhone 13 Pro, and let me tell me what drove me nut - on second incoming call, iPhone keep vibrating and beeping all during your conversation, no way to calm that down, with a Samsun you calm that down by clicking on volume, the second call stays in background in mute mode - you paste a phone number on call keypad and there is no way you can modify it or delete a number, you have to paste it somewhere do your edit copy and paste again on keypad. - switching SIM cards : I use 2 SIM card, in Samsung you can modify where data is consumed with 2 touch. With iPhone you have to go through different menus - controlling volumes : with Samsung you can control your volumes for call, alarm, media… with iPhone you can’t, the volume you set works for everything - WhatsApp calls logs integrated with phone logs - gboard is more intuitive and easy to use in Android - and many more options that you are used to in android you won’t find them on iPhone. This is why I am waiting for my S23+

I've just moved from pixel 7 to s23. I prefer One UI to stock Android on Pixel 7. On the pixel there are niggly things like having to swipe down twice to change screen brightness, and linking WiFi and mobile data on the same quick settings button, so turning off WiFi requires an extra step, on my phone the ability to turn off 5g was disabled too (I work in a building with thick walls so I find data speeds more reliable with 5g off).

S23+ owner here, I have yet to run into a bug or performance issue so far. I grew up with iphone alongside my family but for the past 5 years I have gravitated towards android as I personally prefer the customisability and the amount of system control the user has. I own a M1 Macbook which made me question if I should buy an iphone. But as someone who doesn't particularly use the ecosystem (windows pc, android phone, mac laptop) I decided that sticking to an android was the way to go. And holy cow AMOLED 120hz refresh rate is amazing, it is hard to tell the difference with my 165hz refresh rate monitor. And as a fingerprint biometric lover, the ulrasonic scanner is pressing my nerd buttons. With sammy being an android phone, it is extremely useful for me to run unauthorised software. Being able to inject payloads into my Nintendo Switch using an android device saves me the trouble of having to use my laptop or PC.

Remember that Apple just got high refresh screens in their pro line of phones in late 2021 and in their Macbook Pros around that same time. I would imagine they will continue to go 60hz for their non-pro line for a while longer for those insanely high profit margins they are known for. I certainly agree that they should bring 120hz to the regular iPhone line but I just don't see it happening for the time being simply because most people who aren't into tech don't know the difference when buying.

To give you some context, I am still rocking a S9 from 2018, since then, my GF (now wife) and friends have had iPhone X, Pixel 3, iPhoneXS Max, iPhone XR, iPhone 11, OnePlus 8Pro, iPhone 13. I mean these are the phones we have compared our photos with. TBH, unanimously almost 90% of the time everybody prefers photos clicked with S9m even the guy who is an apple fan and rocks an iPhone13. I am not saying S9 doesn't have faults, the battery life is not good, not the fastest phone (damn you Exynos version) but there's something about the curved display and the feel of the touch (my wife has iPhone 13 now and I don't know why the screen feels more plasticky compared to S9). Not to forget, the screen is the best I have ever seen, even better than the new Samsungs, it is a QuadHD+ screen with blacks so deep, I can't find the bezels in room conditions.

I think the comparison should be between s23 and 14 pro. Otherwise it is a no brainer. S23 has better camera than the 14 overall. Even the 8k 30fps is very good and useable, unlike the 8k 24 fps on other phones. The Snapdragon 8gen 2 with a bit overclock for the samsung is an efficient monster. I have watched the most objective battery test from Phonearena and I would say that the s23 battery is on par. Maybe you can get 15-20min more on average with the iphone, but it is a very small difference to even discuss. Especially when nowadays you have fast charging. The display is also a lot better and I was the guy who thought 120hz is a bit overkill and not needed, but I am coming from SE2020 and jesus, the difference is huge. Its worth mentioning that the s23 even has adaptive Hz, so you save battery. It is very good build quality. I think the Pro versions of iphone have the best build quality in terms of feel, but s23 is right behind. And when you put a case, you can't notice. This is why s23 should be compared to 14pro in terms of features. If we get to the price point, then s23 even wins against 14 pro. I was able to take mine on the preorder deal from a mobile operator for 650$ for the bigger 256GB with ufs 4.0. And ufs 4.0 is a lot faster than Nvme. So if you think about the advantages that ios had over android over the years, they are gone. UFS 4.0 > Nvme, Camera is better in android , you get 4 main versions and 5 years security patches in terms of software support. The perfomance and efficiecny of the Snapdragon is right there with the a16. In terms of games, it is even better. The only reason you would get an iphone nowadays is for the Ecosystem. I don't see any other real advantage.

[@kagisovincent7420]

Great video. Well, it is all subjective, comparing a new phone with one that is a generation older. It does all boil down to which ecosystem works best for the user. Also with the iPhone you get better battery life, a slightly faster chip even though it is older and longer software support than Samsung

[@spike5499]

nope, there are battery tests that prove the S23 lasts longer than the iPhone 14. The S23's chip is also faster in real world use, and ever since 2020 Samsung phones have been getting 4 years of OS updates and 5 years of security updates. So basically everything you said is false 😂

[@Ultra7165]

No brainer, the iPhone is always playing catch up, and super limited, can't customize, the displays are horrible. I've had both, and the iPhone is a ripoff for what you get.

[@323starlight]

One of the reasons I’m kinda indecisive is I’m kinda double dipping in both ecosystems. I have a iPad where I have dozens of music and other stuff, but I also have a Samsung phone currently and a galaxy smart watch.

Thanks for the review. I was also in pickle but you are absolutely right the refresh rate is a huge advantage as it makes the UI feel snappy. I was planning on switching to Apple but now I don't feel I'm ready to buy into an entire ecosystem. If only apple had better cross-platform support.

[@josephomoyajowo8509]

I own both an iphone 11 and a samsung s20 (I haven't upgraded since 2020) and in my honest opinion, I still prefer my samsung. It's my main phone while I use the iphone as my secondary. The big difference at a glance is the LCD vs the OLED screens. The samsung makes the iphone look way older when compared by these but I know the latest iphones now have OLED. I don't know if I want to upgrade both yet or if I should wait for the next year.

I bought a realme gt 5g when it was released in Italy, so around June 2021, and now I'd like to change it to one between S21/S22/S23. I heard that S21 and S22's batteries aren't that great and they tend to overheat; on the other hand I think that the price of S23 is a bit too high for my budget.

Nice & informative video! My worry would be towards the battery life for s23. I would want to invest in a phone that’ll long for 4-5 years. My usage is ~4 hrs of screen on time. Non gamer, use phone for watching videos, social media, mostly take photos. What do you guys recommend?

Let's keep it simple Display, charging, processor, cameras -- s23 Videography by a slight margin -- iPhone 14 Battery life, speakers, ip rating, wireless, built -- tie Subjective-- software ( both are top of their game )and design ( for me punch hole >> notch any day) Here in India With pre-order offers, old phone exchanges, and with bank offers. I can get s23 for 600 USD.. Meanwhile, with phone exchange, we get ip14 for about 750 USD.. It makes sence to go for s23 over ip14 atleast here in India

[@marcofava]

I mean there are things that are added value with the Samsung (and Android in general) that objectively simply clinch this for the Galaxy unless the Apple ecosystem is all one cares about. 1- Trasfer speeds via USB 2- Samsung Dex and Wireless Dex 3- Reverse wireless charging 4- 120Hz display Really the S23 should be put up against the small 14 Pro if one aims for feature parity overall

[@Jmoney5138]

They are both very similar but I have to go with the s23 for the display. I recently got an s21 fe and 60hz feels slow and choppy now.

[@5150crazyfun]

I love iPhone for the stability of the OS and the photo and video quality. But I hate feeling limited and trapped in their ecosystem. Plus you can't customize nearly as much on iOS. It's a tough call because then Samsung isn't as optimized with their battery life and standby time. But for me it comes down to customization and freedom. So I'd go with the s23.

Well that microphone hole isn't really a concern because the mic or the water-resistant mesh isn't in the path of the hole even when fully poked by the sim card tool.

[@sic22l]

8:30 Good dynamic range is when your phone doesn't overexpose bright areas and doesn't crush the shadows. That's exactly whan an iPhone did in the sample video. It has more contrast but less dynamic range than the S23.

[@AvisekBanerje]

Exactly my thoughts. It's like an isheep talking only to green veges again. Lol.

[@xPandamon]

Yep, and that is exactly what happens on the iPhone when taking photos all the time, hence why in my opinion it's garbage, barely competing with Android middle-class phones, but definitely not high-end ones. That overexposing and edge fringing especially is just embarassing and it was MUCH worse on iPhone 13 and before..

[@halhenderson9020]

To be honest, any one of those will probably be enough to make you happy. If not, then the issue runs deeper than mere incremental specs... It becomes more about not knowing what to want in life, rather than an optimization problem...

Hi Sir, Would you suggest how to use cinematic mode on iphone 14?

[@tomasphadraig]

I am due an upgrade very soon and I am totally torn on whether to switch to the Samsung S23 or stick with Apple. In my country Apple jacked up the prices so the base iPhone 14 is way overpriced at $250 at $70/month for 2 years. That's insane for what is a marginally better iPhone 13 with a different name. Samsung S23 is $100 cheaper. It just seems that the Samsung S23 is better value for what is offers over a barely changed iPhone 14. I have been with iPhone now for years and don't particularly fancy going to Android.

[@luisperez6772]

I’m in the same boat

[@tomasphadraig]

In the end I ended up taking a risk and got the S23. I am really happy I did. It is an amazing device. The display is so bright, clear and buttery smooth. The battery life is simply outstanding. Such a wonderful phone for the price. My main concern was Android but having used it now for over 2 weeks I can say it is not a concern now. Android has definitely improved a lot since I last used it.
