Sam's the king of b-roll and aesthetics
True that
💯 true!
Dude, you're like the realest reviewer I've seen on this platform, pointing out things that REAL users face. Good stuff 🔥
The first frame of the video was incredible, you perfectly combined the wallpaper with the scenario
Finally someone mentions the clipboard. I switched from my Galaxy S8 to the iPhone 15 Pro and couldn't believe that the clipboard wasn't implemented
As an iPhone user, I love reviews like these. Even tho I use iPhone, I still love reviews from all kinds of phones
The iPhone navigation was always such a peeve for me. My brother uses an iPhone and every time he lets me take a look at it out of curiosity, the process of navigating back was so tedious.
All your videos are eyecandy 🤩 Keep at it!
First time bumping into your video, well I enjoyed watching. Keep it up.
Sam your videos are soo good while i watch it on my TV
Great video. I have been using iPhone and IOS for a few years now but despite me being very patient, they still have fixed the issues you've mentioned. I might go back to the pixel soon.
I switched to iOS because of my UA-cam channel. Wanted a camera that was great and would connect to my Mac easier. (AirDrop is phenomenal) But since I switched to the iPhone 11 Pro i’ve constantly tried to switch back to Android. I miss the customization, back gesture, Google Assistant instead of Siri. I need to get a real camera for my UA-cam channel and then I can switch back to Android. Hopefully i’ll be able to save enough for when the Pixel 9 releases (or if the Galaxy S24 gets a huge discount)
Well today Sunday May 10 th in US the 512 GB S24 ULTRA is $1419.99 and they are offering $615 trade in for s22 Ultra and $32.50 for veterans and $120 instant savings. Or $617.49 or $25.73 / mth for 24 mths...my S22 Ultra through Tmobile was $27 and some odd cents....but my credit is bad so since this is a 1 day offer I lose...even though I could pay S22 Ultra remaining $125+ and afford sales tax and payments
@@DENVEROUTDOORMAN the problem with me is I use an iPhone 15 and think it’s too big of a phone so switching to something like the ultra is a no-go for me. I would love the regular S24 but it’s too expensive for me right now to buy (I buy unlocked)
@@DENVEROUTDOORMANlol no, with iphones you dont need to get the latest and greatest just to take good videos, even older iphones like the iphone 13pm takes beter videos than s24u
@@haruyanto8085 iPhone 13 definitely don't take better videos then s23 let's be real here lmao
Thanks Sam, you just saved me from even trying an Iphone I was planning on buying as a secondary phone, now I see I would loose my mind on that notifications and navigation issues, I prefer to have a secondary Samsung
Amazing video!
I knew about a lot of these things, but I learned a few new things too.
On the notification piece, you can set the notification as persistent and it will stay until dismissed. Can’t do the upper reminder piece though.
Thanks for the reminder. I was actually considering switching back to Fruit Company just for the wearable experience but I'm really held back from doing so by the OS.
I guess OneUI has stolen my heart.
hey sam, just wanted to let you know that the time sensitive notifications has been improved (at least in my experience with reminders), I’ve used reminders for the first time and then when it popped on my lock screen I wanted to test the thing, cuz I know well for a fact time sensitive notifications would disappear after an hour and I remembered your experience about that as well, well at least in the case of using reminders it kept my notifications up top on the locked screen for well over 24 hours, even had to restart my phone and still all good, so reminders is the way to go in my experience at least
Never change your aspect ratio I love your style of your videos!
For feature 4 -app library- that’s the whole point of spotlight search much faster
Hey Sam great video! I have been an iPhone user for years, as here in the states they are kind of ubiquitous, and I do love my 13 pro. However, I did switch to a Note 8 for awhile though and I will admit the scheduled text messages feature on my old Android is still a feature that I miss to this day!
No one can match the vibe in your videos Sam ❤
I was just thinking about getting this iPhone. Should I get it?
two things i need is better gestures control and better scroll down menu
I love the spam function on the pixel. What about the apple Calender app? Does it have the same problem with notifications
I like the way, on Android, that all the settings you need for a particular app are in that same app you're using. It seems so counterintuitive on iPhone to have to leave the app, go to General settings, and then adjust additional settings for the app. Shouldn't have to leave an app to adjust it.
This whole list can be sumed up by one phrase. "Give the user the option to...."
Apple simply refuses to give its phone owners the control they need to personalize important aspects of the experience. Whether its notifications, home screens, third party app stores, navigation within apps, ect. Apple doesn't want you to have a tailor made experience. They want your phone to look and act like everyone else's.
Hard pass
Is that a Polaroid camera on your table? Holy cow! Talk about a 🦕 I remember those from back in the 80's when I was a little kid.
The back gesture is definitely one of my most missed “features” from using Android. I’m about four years in on iPhones and I have gotten used to it, but I still miss the consistent back gesture.
Universal back gesture is stopping me switching too 😢
Swiping from left to right works for most apps now 😊
Right to left is so much easier though, especially if you're right handed @@Rinnara21
@@Rinnara21no it doesn't, it even is explained in the video. Get real.
That's many times annoying. Sometimes you can't even get out of the app screen unless you choose any of the options provided or switch the app off. Or, they give you that kind of small buttons only which go back gesture would do the job instead 🤔
@@megamastah because it doesn't make sense. i don't open chrome on my laptop then press the back button to head into word. In that scenario there was nothing to go back to. He was in a different section of the app where the back button would work if he actually went somewhere in that section. The universal back is only good because you're used to it.
moving Photos to a Windows Desktop and Universal Back Gesture. These are the 2 things that have been a big hinderance for me personally.
What an amazing video highlighting all thr realtime and day to day problem a user will face when switching to iOs. I have been an Android user since beginning and i love these customization options specially the back feautre and using 3rd party apps. Also the calendar thing is legit helpful. I am gng to switch to iphone Soon cz of a deal I made with my partner and now this video has scared me. 😂
I was so close to buying the iPhone 15 Pro Max, but getting my sister an iPhone 13 and helping her set it up, was the most frustrating experience of my life, and so, 2 days later I ordered the Samsung S24 Plus instead. I love the iPhone hardware, I really do but all the reasons mentioned, and some others, surely could be overcomed, but am I wasn't willing enough.
Good choice made.
I got the 15PM after 8 years on android and it was a bit annoying during a good 8 weeks, I kid you not 😒
6 months later I’ve got an Apple Watch and iPad too, I think I got on pretty well with them 😂
Switching or Setting up new devices is always annoying
@@haruyanto8085 Took me clicking continue 3 times and half an hour and smart switch copied even my widgets off of my old S21. So yeah, I'll keep perusing the Samsung garden for a while longer 😭😭
Good video presentation
Android has never had good optimization. That's what stops me every time from using it as a daily driver. Once you see something like Apple's Metal platform the gap is crystal clear.
Your shirt is crisp AF❤
A number row option on the keyboard's 1st page would be nice, as well as a comma and period keys, just like in every android. Typing an email or any other type of text that consists of more that a sentence is a struggle on iOS.
Ok, this is a long shot but can Sam share where he got that Boost for reddit app? I can't use the official app anymore, it is so vexing to use....
I never use the app library, there's no way that "pull down and search" is slower than swiping and looking for the app in the library or even the second page of the home screen
I dropped my s23 ultra for the 15 pro. I absolutely love it. It runs so flawless and the pictures are just amazing. That being said the s23u was an amazing phone but I not once took advantage of all of the customization which it comes to personalizing it to my liking. I hardly took advantage of the great cameras. To each their own though 😊
I switch from a IPhone 12 to a S23 (the small one) and meh, can't wait to go back to IPhone, S23 is laggy as hell, and after a couple of updates, it overheats like crazy using just a couple of minutos and reduced processing power to much, even the IPhone 12 felt so much smoother
Call Recording. It's important for business, and without it I would never even consider an iPhone as primary driver
What phone do you use to record phone calls?
There is no number row in keyboard - there is no close button for all background apps - need itunes to transfer data - slow charging - battery get drain quickly after first year of usage - too expensive - can't change default apps.
When I had iphone, facetime and imessage never worked right, so I never used them.
Same problem here the back gestures sometimes I’m just so angry at apple for this everytime i have to close the whole damn app becuz i couldn’t go back
In fact, there is a clipboard in iOS, just add it via the action button!
Planning to buy iphone 15 pro.
Besides the iPhone do you currently use any other Apple product? Also, I agree with the notifications aspect of what you said.
Yep, MacBook Pro as my main personal computer (not for editing though) and iPad Pro occasionally.
My wife is also an avid iPhone user.
Oh my god, the spam problem is soooo bad on iPhone. It's almost to the point that I want to change phone numbers. How after so many years have they not added some smart spam filtering I will never understand. It was basically non-existent when I was on Android.
I like iphones and iOS, but the back gesture from android is awesome. Hopefully they’ll bring it with iOS 18
Coming from a Apple fan boy, you're review is pretty good. Glad you don't trash the product just for no reason 👌
They should add a proper file managing system, like Android phones, for me to switch + the notification system of Android
iOS issues:
1) Can't sort apps alphabetically
2) Keyboard lag & does not have number row key
3) Notifications is not as good as Android
4) iOS calculator is not as complex as Android's calculator (does not show the calculation only shows the result)
5) Setting alarm does not show how many more hours still alarm rings
I think the inconsistent navigation of the UI is a huge problem...
Couple of things I'd add to the list are voice dictation/Siri (both kinda suck) and text/message scheduling.
I have clipboard on my iPhone 12 mini!
This is a great video, and I agree with all but 1 point. I use both types of phones, and I actually prefer the way my iPhone handles notifications. I remember to swipe up to check. I prefer a clean lockscreen with no widgets. Luckily on one ui I was able to use notistar from good lock to enable a similar swipe up for notifications feature
Also. 1 thing I love on iOS is if you tap the status bar, it scrolls all the way to the top of the page you're on. If anyone knows how to get this on android, let me know
Universal gesture, custom keyboards (I use the blackberry suretype style keyboard), home screen customization, and notification system. If they can fix those, I would switch to iPhone
same, the universal swipe to go back gesture is one thing i can't live without.
The Android select cursor works more accurately than iphone's select cursor.
Issues 6 and 7 are absolutely deal-breakers. Every new iOS release I hope they rehaul the software completely but they basically haven't touched it since iOS 7.... Also their animation speed is sooo slow.
The slow animation is a must to give a smoothness to the eyes. Hence a reason for Iphone fan to say iOS is better than Android.
Oxygen OS does something similar with the notifications on the lock screen and its frustrating cause i have missed notifications due to them disappearing after unlocking your device.
can you not get a custom notification app? I use spren to manage my notifications. it hasn't been updated since 3 years, and might not exactly be what you were looking for, but I'm sure you'd find some other options
The iPhone does have spam blocker if you go into the settings and look up under the phone settings you will find something called unknown caller if you turn it on your phone will not ring just as long as the phone number is not in your contact
not the same 😉
I don't want to block all unknown callers...
Currently using an iPhone 13 and I can’t count the number of events I’ve missed because of awful notifications.
I need to either get a Pixel or Samsung because I want to see what Android has been up to for the past 3yrs
This guy made me switch to Android. Especially the Pixel for the experience. From iphone. Nice video. I totally relate.
Should have gotten Samsung ....Piss All doesn't have simple apps for timers
@@DENVEROUTDOORMAN what?
For me the missing back gesture is the dealbreaker… all the other problems i could live with, but no back gesture is a hard one…
One feature I still think is worth mentioning, especially for the "pro models" of the iphone is a pro camera mode. I was on android right up until 2020 and the one thing that irritated me the most about my iphone 12 when compared to my oneplus 5T was the lack of a manual camera mode. This feature missing on my iphone 15 pro max is so irritating and something they could easily implement it at very little cost.
Yup Samsung s pro mode is fantastic
Guys same as him 6 months later but my back glass broke today it was the first time my phone fell and it fell from my pocket when i was sitting like wtf
I would need spam calls, spam texts and something like assistant voice typing. Oh and what's playing. I am beginning to think that the best way to experience applea and keeping my pixel 8 pro is to get an ipad because after using the galaxy tab s9+ I must much prefer the pad pro.
I both use iPhone and Pixel phones and I totally agree with #2!
And I don’t get it because I got way more spam calls on my android phone than I do on my iPhone. I just turn on silence, unknown callers and if they’re not in my contacts, they don’t get through. It’s the easiest spam filter in the world and it’s on the iPhone.
What s the background photo at 4:20
I am not really a big fan of this phone after owning it for 6 months now. The overhead issue still persists regardless of any updates. Titanium is not the best material for thermal handeling. The phone still glitches every now and then and face id has its hiccups. As for iOS, it's still limited (which is my preferred word to use more than "optimized") and hope iOS 18 offers something better. Anyways, this is my last iPhone before switching to android completely.
Fair. The gestures quibble in particular is spot on. Gestures drove me nuts when I moved from Note20U to iPhone 14PM. Lack of clipboard was #2. Argh!
No split screen multitasking is major
Whats the android mobile model in this video ? 😊
And a proper EQ for sound experience. They only have presets. At least android let you use apps to control sound.
New Wallpaper please!!!! ❤
Thank you very much
The video makes me want to switch back to Android 😂😭
Look the only reason I moved from android to apple is being outdoors and active person. AppleCare is so convenient and after sticking with Samsung for over 10years and constantly being screwed over by there Samsung care I got fed up. Today I needed to talk to apple support took less than 1min to get in touch and speak to a real human. Ultimately I miss my Samsung but the support outweighs the negatives
I get you. Customer service is really important. I've heard Samsung's customer service is all over the place and not friendly. I may switch to iphone when the 16 comes out but idk yet.
Dude your production style is top notch 👌 except the ratio 😅
Gestures came from Palm Pre. They're almost identical.
Hard relate when it comes to the universal back gesture option, it’s been 3 years on ios and the inability to go back to main screen instead of a hamburger menu bugs me😡
iPhone has a clipboard. But you can’t do anything about it.
While on Android, the clipboard manager can do a lot.
sideloading already exist on ios for years. i had to use itunes on windows and set developer settings to my own Apple ID name and shit. it's not as simple as apk on android. but it works, last time i tried was with ios 15 on an ipad
The apps become unavailable in 7 days if you don't resign them
Why can’t apple hire you as a consultant, I would also like iPhone to have an app pop out mode like on Samsung and a secure folder feature.
The ones that bother me the most are volume for different apps separately and notifications leaving my lockscreen after unlocking my phone lol
I got way more spam calls on my android phones. Apple iPhone allows you to turn on a setting called silence unknown callers. This means that anybody that’s not in your contacts automatically gets put through to voicemail or if it’s a spam risk if the call is just cut. I never get spam calls on my iPhone, and I used to get them constantly on my android phone. It's actually one of the reasons I switched back to iPhone, to get less spam.
Pixel has a spam caller feature. Blocks every spam call / text . You were just not using the right android phone.
whats the modded boost for reddit app?
i think it still allows us to use boost for reddit by creating our own developer key
ReVanced on iphone would be awesome, but that is a pipe dream because Apple does not want its users to truly own their devices.
For me personally, the final straw on the iPhone was the App Library. The thing is a usability abomination. It would be so bad if it was an optional feature.
On Android, I hide the UA-cam Shorts section completely 😂
There is no sense to swipe on the left to go on the home tab when you can press home, all those screens leave in the same main tab navigation, or swipe from the left to dismiss sheet presentation, when is full caver presentation it makes sense and I would like to see that on iphone, but there are ton of apps that swipe left do something else, so it is hard to do that just like that from apple side, and as developer we got some kind of warning at least 8 months before so it is not coming 😅
But if it's a universal gesture then you should build around that. That's like saying my car doesn't drive properly because there are road markings. The road markings guide the car, the car doesn't guide the markings.
Also swipe from the very edge is the gesture, a few apps I've used use swipe from just before the edge or swipe from the middle to perform an action
@@Policepigeon and as I already said, this is something that is addressed to developers for at least 8-10 month before, like ipad split screen etc, so you can upgrade your app, but this is not happening for know and iOS 18 beta is on the way in few months, maybe 19 if they ever plan to that
Native call recorder.
I don’t think the navigation is the biggest issue. I think the notifications would be the call out. I actually prefer Apple’s navigation
Glad I replaced mine with a s24
I really wish iOS would be more one-handed to use. I feel like the back button at the top left of the screen is a really old design, since basically the first ever iPhone. It worked on their 3,5" and 4" screens becasuse those phones were small, even for the time, but now that we have 6,7" screens, like cmon Apple. The swipe from left to right is the most simple, yet the best way to replace the back-button.
Man you’re making me wanna switch to an android.
since my sister has the 15 (normal, not pro or pro max) - i had it in my hands a few times. It is a nice phone .. it certainly gives you "insider-points" with the marketing target demographic ... young teenagers and young adults who buy into the Apple marketing.
But because it is much harder to customize and "make it your own thing" - for most .. it is a uniform accessory. (pretty much the opposite of what Apple advertised for back then) - There is nothing creative, nothing "your own" about it.
If the phone is a tool .. it does not matter what phone you buy. You will be 100% fine with a Note 9 or an iPhone 7 even today. If your phone is meant to be a fashion statement, too ... i would always go for something that i can customize to my hearts content, something that is not the norm, not a uniform accessory.
All that is so very different from what you look for though .. you look at tech, specs and such ... things i find quite irrelevant.
I'll switch to iPhone when they come with a stylus in the phone and multi-task, and also get rid of the stupid locked app configuration.
There is one change that Apple could do that would put an iPhone even close to my radar when purchasing a phone, which is just allow me to have superuser permissions on my own device (and unlocked bootloader). You can relatively easily get or by default have this on every other relevant OS so why it's not on iOS is baffling to me. All of the things listed in this video, and the dozens of other issues I have with iOS, could be fixed by the community if Apple didn't lock you out of your own device this hard. That's why I love Android, if there's something I don't like, chances are I can change it. Apple treating it as a problem just means I'll forever filter out iPhones when searching for a new device.
Great video! The App Library got on my nerves when I switched to the iPhone 15 pro max 6 months ago but the spotlight search is an incredible feature. Just like you, I like having a single clean Home Screen with the apps that I use the most but I must say that once you get used to the spotlight search you’d see that it’s miles easier than any android library. I just start typing the name of the app and press enter, it’s less time consuming then scrolling any app library.
Also, to see the apps list you don’t need to press the search bar, just swiping down will make them appear in a list.
To go back to Android I’d like to see google get a better chip, more power efficient and with less thermal problems OR for Samsung to drop Exynos for good in Europe because the sharp corners of the ultra isn’t appealing to me (past S22 ultra user).
There's also a search option in the app drawer for Android.
10:10 well in my case, I hide notification icons on status bar once I discovered the option to do so cause in my opinion, it looks cluttered and I love clean looks when I hide them.
That's another reason Android is superior in this regard. You have the option to do either with notifications. Apple doesn't give you a choice.
It's good to have a choice. Sometimes, it's good not to dismiss a notification straight away.
Apple should honestly copy Android's gestures or just add buttons.
