I agree with most of what you say. I was recently 'forced' to use an iPhone and was pleasantly surprised as to how every single app worked and behaved. Delightful. But I just had to get an android for my needs. Google Assistant, fantastic call screening just took the cake. The biggest reason I continue with Android is their notifications. I have an iPad and during my 8-9 months of using the iPhone, I kept missing notifications. So, for ME, Pixel is the clear winner.

I have come to the conclusion that I much prefer Android (and I've used both systems for years). Do what you want, and use what you like and what works for you. Whenever folks would ask me which is better for photography, Canon or Nikon, my answer would always be: "Do you have any glass from either; if you do, stick with that brand. If you do not, go to a store and play with both; they feel different and some folks prefer the feel of one over the other. Get whichever one you like more."

If iOS had some of the pixel features id switch ASAP. The call screening feature is something I use often and love. Also if apple would let the user easily customize their app layout and home screen.

[@MP-lv5vk]

I agree that call screening would be a great feature on iPhone. I think the delay is due to Apple lagging a bit with AI. I think Apple has some interesting customisation features nowadays. You can remove "Home Screen" icons and still have the app accessible in the app screen... I forget the same - swipe to the very right.

[@wesleygriffiths8496]

[@hobosnake1]

Homescreen customization and keyboard customization. The two missing things that keep me away from iPhone. I envy lots of things about the iphone and would love to use one, but these have been deal breakers.

[@readifdumb]

@@hobosnake1 It's funny how I feel like customization is such an easy fix for them. Just add a setting that allows you to import custom icons for apps, and then let the community go wild. As for keyboard, just add a keyboard that is similar functionality wise to Android, but put it behind a setting so that for those that want it, they can go turn that on, while people used to the current keyboard can just stay with it. It annoys me how little Apple would have to do to break through the market. RSC messaging and side loading, is apparently coming to iOS in later versions, which is HUGE for iOS to do. I think as we run into a hardware brick wall, and most people are struggling to see it being worth it upgrading their phones, especially with each new phone design basically being the same, Apple switched to all these customization and experimental features all of a sudden (focus modes, lock screen/home screen in-built switching, widgets, remove app instead of delete, and a bunch more settings for a custom experience). All they are really lacking is multiple volume sliders, custom icons, move apps on any tile on home screen, and some extra options when saving/sharing/taking photos. I wonder what the future will look like once iOS meets Android in the middle in terms of features, but is still at the top of performance and optimisation?

[@crisszollo]

It is finally coming to IOS 18 in fall

[@kma86]

Among the reasons I missed iOS when I initially switched to the S23 Ultra were because of the app named "Documents" by Readdle being not available on Google Play, and also iMovie. But the past is past, I've moved on. Not so much of an advocate of iOS or Android - I love them equally. Being a fanboy or sheeps from both sides are just plain childish. Some just never grow up. Considering the amount of money I've paid for these phones I've used, I don't think the trashings from others matter at all.

So, for example, you could get the lottery where you have a phone with a rated nominal 3000 mAh battery, but an actual capacity of 3050 mAh, which is 101.6% of the nominal capacity. Which explains the 102%!

[@AlbertPatrick]

As someone who mainly uses a Google Pixel, all your reasonings to switching back are absolutely reasonable. Out of all your points, the first one is where Apple just crushes it. Apps! App developers love the straightforward nature of making apps for Apple. However, if an app developer wants to broaden their consumer market for their product, they should take care not to burn any bridges with Android users. I know I myself don't bother with apps or products that I can't use on my Android devices, which means I'm one potential customer they just lost. I'm sure I'm not the only one.

[@forumics]

As an app developer I can tell you that developing for the iPhone is a real pain. Xcode is slow and cumbersome and you are locked into MacOS unlike android where a Dev PC can be 20 cores if I need it be. Dev tools are mostly free for android apps but paid on MacOS and in a corporate environment it's not easy to submit security approvals for applications. I generally develop and optimise for android before moving onto iPhones although I know some Devs go the other route.

[@AlbertPatrick]

@@forumics Thank You for the response. That was informative. It's always nice to hear app developers chime in on these kinds of topics.

I'm pretty sure the only reason most developers make their app for Apple first is because that os is used by only one company. The thing with Android is that it is used by a multitude of companies, not just samsung.

I also agree on most of your points. Me "a blood bound Android user since...EVER" am now switching to iPhone. Also not because i like the device or cameras better (I will miss my 10x from the Galaxy S23 ultra!!) but just that apple has everything running. It is boring as f*** but as I am also getting "older" I have less time and also less desire to constantly configure and workaround technical issues. I am not saying I will never return, because I really really like customizing my OS and that is quite not possible on IOS to the extend I desire. Also the extend of sniffing in my private life Google is doing really gets out of controll... So ...2024 will be my first IOS Year and I am really curious how this goes because I really am an apple h8ter :-) (mainly for the company politics they apply on their products and users and developers and also for the astronomic prices....and because so many people just buy it as a status symbol and only use 10% of itz functions and eco system)

In the same boat as you, used a oneplus 6 for four years and now using the iphone 15. Its not as perfect as people make it out to be, ios 17 is actually buggy in a few ways. Maybe a little less than android, but the bugs are there at times. Also 60hz on this phone is fluid but not fast. My oneplus 6 can still keep pace with it even though the animations are not as consistent.

[@Consola260]

Curious how that's going for you 4 months later. I have a Pixel 6 Pro which has so many bugs, charges slowly, etc. Then I was considering buying an Apple TV 4K as a streaming device... And it got me thinking: why not make the switch? None of the flagship Android phones are appealing to me anymore. Also getting "older" and not as interested in customization, haha. But then there's that nagging feeling about joining the "cult" and the status symbol issue (even though for us savvy people, it's not about that at all!)

I remember using an iPad 2 for 7 days. I realized I couldn't submit myself to a jail. People here in India, who actually work and want get stuff done use Android and Windows. Those who like to use iPhones for whatever reason, always carry an Android phone alongside because Android let's you do what you want to by hook or by crook! Using a Galaxy S20 FE 5G, cost me, 250 pounds, does what I want and more. If I don't like the camera for a certain usecase, I switch to Google Pixel Mod, I want to transfer high speed data - I got USB 3, I want to manage files and organize them - I got a real file manager, I want to use my phone apps on a large screen I got Samsung Dex,I want to block ads I got ways to achieve that as well, I want to sideload - sure go ahead, I'm running out of space shooting 4KHDR10 - not a problem I got SD card support! If you grew up in a walled garden it's fine, but once you experience the freedom you can't go back!

Maybe people would laugh, but for me the key factors of throwing away iphone were weight and unconformable sharp edges. And I had the iphone 14 pro, which is not even so heavy as max. The only two things I liked in iPhone over android, were cameras and airdrop. Now with nearby share from Android and Windows I finally have one reason less to like iphone.

[@Ronnet]

Photo quality is heavily determined by software. Some android OEMs are also making massive leaps in their photos and are now competitive with apple. Huawei is probably better than apple at this point but they're gone in western markets. Google itself (Pixel) is also competitive with Apple. A few years from now and this advance apple had with photos will be gone.

I've had more problems with the 15 pro Max this year than any iPhone I've ever had !

[@arijitarijitarijit]

Apple is simple and provides a rich experience while using , not to mention the best android flagships have such pathetic battery backups . Data security is just so shady overall on Android . Using a galaxy fold and 15 pro

I had used Samsung smart watches for about 5 years before buying the Apple Watch 6 3 years ago. I've only used that watch since then. Thanks for the heads up concerning the latest Galaxy Watch. I was thinking about buying it for my S23 Ultra.

Long time Android user. Switched to Apple on iPhone 13. 100% agree with this video. The Apple Watch is leagues ahead of wear os etc

[@dennisrogers6786]

I went the other way. Had the iPhone 15 and went with Samsung s23 ultra. IPhone is fixed and cannot do anything with it. Cannot sideload apps. It's to closed. Can can turn my Samsung into an android computer and can run 2 apps at a time. Android is far more powerful and Costuming. My experience with Android is opposite yours, no buggy software. And love my Pixel 2 watch. Yes hate the Samsung snd Garmin watches. It's taken googleva long time to make a decent watch

[@TomTomdog]

I really miss 100x zoom. Thats the best feature of the S series. I love watching people from a mile away. Also miss the back button. Navigating around in Samsung is much easier than iPhone . But I will keep my iphone 14pro for another year since I want to feel young and cool longer

[@PeteMatheson]

[@michaelwoolcock5600]

I was a Android user for 4 years. Had a Nokia with only 16 gig, which was on until it started to fill up with Bloatware, along with a basic Huawei tablet. I had enough and got an I pad on eBay, a 2022 SE and an Apple Watch SE2 last year. Buttery smooth and everything works. Traded up to a 13 this year.

[@Cookiem0sta]

Been using iPhones for the past few years now and still can't believe how awful the ram management is!!!! I can't jump between multiple apps because they are constantly refreshing. It might be the new iOS update but my Spotify crashes a lot and KZbin always relaunches after I swipe to another app. Apple putting 4 to 6Gbs of ram on their flagship phones is pretty dawn criminal, apps are only getting bigger and more demanding every update. With that being said I really do enjoy my 14 pro max but its clear to me that Apple's software needs a lot of fixing and honestly a complete rework in some areas.

[@Tha-King-Arthur]

Precisely! I already use 8 GB of RAM on the S23 Ultra because I use a lot of widgets and background processes. I really need the 12 GB of RAM on my 512GB S23 Ultra.

As an actual mobile developer, I can say that I have not met a single person who likes to develop for Apple devices. It is far, FAR easier to develop for Android. The reason a lot of apps are iPhone exclusive is because they have an agreement with Apple.

At 9:38 that is a bug with your gym app. iOS does automatically resume music after a video is done playing in most other apps. I agree that iOS needs better audio controls though.

Any non-jailbroken iPhone is honestly a waste of time. With the time spent bending backover to figure out "the way to do things" that Apple decreed upon you and how you can work around it to suit your use case it's simpler to just stick with Android.

I seem to have no problems with Android apps. Settings are easy to get to. Never use public WiFi. Why does Apple only use Infared face detect? I find no desire to look into Infared light. Navigation is best on Android. The iPhone is great for resale and for use with the Mac, you will miss those two features. The rest, is the rest, with Android making more sense and costing less upfront -- more choices. It all works.

I couldn't use a phone, an iphone, that couldn't tell me via Siri how to turn it off. I asked it how since the power button no longer was a power button, but It literally did a web search response on how to turn off an android phone. $20 if you asked your iphone the same question, it would do the same response. I did this query 3 years ago.

[@voteDC]

I'm surprised the watches you've tried are slow. I have a Galaxy S3 Classic and it's quick and responsive, I love using the twisty bezel to quickly navigate. To hear that things are getting worse with each generation is a little disappointing.

No matter if you prefer apple or android, can we all agree a government app being apple only shouldn't even be legal... Regarding ios only apps, it's not easier because of the limited devices but apple users are also on average, spend more money on products/ apps meaning your product reaches more people potentially willing to spend money on it making ios users a more attractive demographic to reach. (Given apples price and the number of popular apps that cost money, this only makes sense)

[@rzozaya1969]

Every one experience is different. I went from a Realme GT 2 Pro to a iPhone 14 Pro Max, and while I like it, I'm dissapointed. I haven't found an app that I use that is better in iOS than Android. That's weird because I've always been hearing that the same app in iOS works better. The OS is just more complex and only way to do things.

[@krujuice]

Just can't do that. The closed ecosystem, the more expensive apps, which are often the same on both, incompatibility with things that aren't Apple, I can go on and on. As someone that worked for a telecommunications company for two decades, it was always Apple that caused every issue; we eventually switched our devices over to Samsung and didn't have any of the issues internally, but still had the issues with the customers 😒 In fact we had a campus that had several laptops that wouldn't connect to the campus wifi. "Let me guess" I said, "do they use Apple devices"? She had a shocked face, "how did you know?". So, coming from someone that worked in tech for most of my career, you can keep Apple 😉

If iOS had some of the pixel features id switch ASAP. The call screening feature is something I use often and love. Also if apple would let the user easily customize their app layout and home screen.

The last iPhone I had was the 5 moved to Android as it was getting a bit expensive with iPhone. Fast forward 11years or so now rocking the pixel 7pro which isn't cheap great phone and camera specially, but I'm thinking now to change back to iPhone 15 pro. Reason I want change is a few reasons similar to yours but also resale or trade in value is way more on iPhones, I change my phones every few years but when it comes to selling it any Android phones they lose 60% plus even after a year which is ridiculous. Also pixels using customized Samsung chips and modems aren't great, the modems are really bad keep getting disconnected. Untill they use a non Samsung modem I'll probably give the iPhone a try. I could go on with more reasons we'll be here all day. yes I know the pixel 8 is coming out soon but not sure if it will be any better with the signal issues.

I've been using both for about three years now.. and everyday I'm more and more frustrated with my apple products.. I've had 100% the exact opposite experience.. I've been wanting to make a video exactly like this, but switching apple and android.. of course, I would never use a pixel, I'm actually using android products that work, but in every instance, on every occasion, with every app, I've had a consistently better experience with android. Not a single time did something not work, or not sync, or give me any type of problem, whereas apple.. it's a daily thing, and the more products I add.. ie. apple watch, macbook.. the worse it gets.. idk.. america vs eu.. different apps, different phones.. but in my experience, apple is archaic, and I've had better continuity even with decades old androids.. great video, tho

Well, I just can’t choose 😅. I enjoy the S-pen, MagSafe, Apple Pay, Apple Watch, but the batterylife of the Samsung Watch, and the reversed wireless charging. If Apple would add reversed wireless charging, an Apple Pencil that fits in the pro max, and the battery options Samsung has (enable or disable fast (wireless) charging and giving charging information I would be sticking with Apple. Samsung is just still a little bit better now. Except for the wireless pay system, that just works brilliant compared to Samsung.
