    What I’ve realised after switching from android to iPhone after buying my 15 Pro Max, is that on android, you change the phone to adapt it into your life. Where with iPhones you change the way you use your phone to use it how Apple intends you to, I really don’t like that, I would like more options on iOS!

      no, there are just people that care about different things than you. i was a life long android user and apple hater, i switched and although as with every tech, it has its flaws, notifications isnt one of them. and btw, if someone is 100% on one side of a conflict like this, he is just as fooled as the exact opposite, it just depends on what you care about and what flaws you can adapt to, as all devices have some

      Notifications are objectively worse on iOS. It's not even debatable. I'd take Android notifications from version 4.2 (2012-2013) over iOS's current notifications.
      If you prefer iOS, that's fine, but don't pretend that notifications on iOS aren't seriously flawed.

    Im the only one that left the apple ecosystem at a younger age. I already had the common sense when i was in high school. I was born in a time where if u had an iphone u were popular in school, but as years went by, it all changed to competition and ppl arguing android vs apple.
    I love android personally bc of the ecosystem, it represents inclusiveness bc it has different brands but made on the same operating system, and it just feels like a pc in the palm in your hands since developer mode takes your experience to a whole new level, also the EASTER EGG of checking your update version is so fun to mess with, and finally every app is so much easier to log in to since you can login with a google account and you can choose which one if you have more than one.
    I believe that android users represent the future gen of flip phones back in the day since we use the same brands that made all the flip phones.
    I have used an lg lotus flip phone, motorola droid razr m, iphone 4, lg stylo 2, lg v10, iphone 7, iphone se, oneplus 6t, and finally google pixel 7. I bough a samsung galaxy fold 4 and am getting it delivered today which im excited about.
    I will always love android bc android is the most innovative and gets me more excited about technology as a whole than apple ever will.
    I just hate how strict apple services and or the experience is, and overpriced 😔

      I have the same experience with my Ubuntu Linux PCs vs the spouse's MacOS computer. I think the MacOS desktop is awkward to use.
      As to phones, is best to get an unlockable Pixel phone and install the security/privacy focused (and de-googled) GrapheneOS.
      The phone is THE primary device for spying via data collection and location tracking - neither Apple or Google can be trusted.
      The Graphene web installer works pretty well, but stick with a Windows or Mac computer to install from, alas there are isdues with trying to install from a Linux PC - and the command line installer is just as problematic. Sad that that's the case, but Graphene folks probably stretched thin so they concentrate on where the majority of users will install from. It was flawless from the spouse's MacOS computer usung Brave browser with ad blocker temporarily disabled - best to use a browser based on Chromium.

      The only thing that it has that I liked was spotlight search. On Android you have to be in the settings app to search settings, you have to be in the contacts app to search contacts, you have to be in the app drawer to search for apps. I loved the iPhone search feature it searches everything in one spot. It’s easier to navigate in that way. My Android phone is 5 years old so not sure if Android fixed that. But really liking the iPhone in that regard. Besides that I noticed to most things on iPhone either took more clicks then any did on Android or the simple features like how much time tell the phone is charged are completely missing all together. Not only that I noticed a lot of things being backwards. Instead of swiping left in internet, you have to swipe right. Instead of swipping up you swipe down for search. Heck the address bar is on the bottom instead of the top on iPhone. So many things are opposite is insane. It threw me off.
      So after going through all that the hype didn’t deliver at all. I don’t understand how iPhone users say it’s so much easier to use or that it’s faster, or that it’s a better experience. The differences are very settle and not deal breakers either way. And overall the iPhone didn’t deliver at all with all the claims. I have to think these people that think Android is way worse then iPhone are comparing it to the Android of 10 years ago and have no clue what modern Android is like.

      No you don't... Did you even searched on Android if you could do that? I don't think you realize how you can do literally anything on Android, precisely because it's open (source).
      On any Android, you can install launchers (another concept that blows any iPhone users considering how much they can't customize their OS appearance) and install modules (for those which don't natively integrate one but allows you to from a third party) that will be able to do and look for pretty much anything on your phone, whether it's apps, contacts, messages, files on your phone, calculation or conversions, internet searches and even do specific actions in apps that do support it, like Maps to look for a place (and I probably missed some functionalities).
      There is nothing an iPhone can do that any Android phone can't do or can't replicate with a third party app, absolutely nothing.

    I had the S24 ultra and returned it due to fingerprint sensor issues. I replaced it with an iPhone 15 pro max and honestly I'm thinking really serious about switching back. The camera on the 24 Ultra was just far superior to the iPhone 15 Pro Max. The camera on the 24 Ultra also reduced a function for me by allowing me to watermark the date and my name on the photos natively. I can do this on the iPhone, but it requires a 3rd party app. I did have a screen protector on the 24 Ultra and I'm wondering how much that affected the functionality of the fingerprint sensor.

      Depending on which screen protector, another 2 things you should do if you go back is to register the same fingerprint twice, and increase the touch sensitivity on the screen in settings, also the negative of using a screen protector on the S24U is that it will lose the anti reflection properties of the display

      everything you listed as far as file system and features were just introduced and samsung was the only android with copy clipboard , been using android since 2.1 and ios since ios 4 they’ve both evolved but ios is more simplistic , it’s so many “ versions “ of android most features are embedded and hard to find , but when people talk android ios they are always and almost always referring to samsung and ios , not motorola , LG - r.i.p , Oppo etc

      i own both S24U (personal phone) and 15PM (work phone given by my company). i'm running 10gbps internet connection at home so i tested both connection speed and the results are night and day : 15pm 70-80mbps , S24U 1.3-1.5gbps. To confirm even further i use both my nephews 15PM and the results are the same. Even on cellular connection i get better bars reception on the S24U compared to the 15PM. Very weird..

    I’ve used Android for 4 years before switching to iPhones for the past 10 years. My last purchase is a 1600€ 14 Pro which I’m increasingly disappointed about, been using my backup phone more and more (a 200€ 2020 Xiaomi).
    My question to fellow Android users is, how is your after sales/repair experience with major Android brands these days? It’s the one thing I want to make sure about before switching back.

    I wanted a new small phone, so waited for the small s24. But two things holding me back, exynos and slow charging. So my question is, are there any 6-6,2 inch flagship androids with Snapdragon and fast charging? Like 60+ watt?

    • @techzolute
      @techzolute 8 місяців тому +2

      Xiaomi 14 is there for you. Others are available too.
      I'd advise you go ahead with the S24. That 25 watts charging is still fast.
      And it has the best battery among entry level flagships, even beating the battery in iPhone 15 by a mile.

    For me & I never thought I would but I like ios better overall I've come to realize for a few little key touches that make a difference to me, in ios messaging when you get a text containing a tracking number & other stuff you can tap on it from the text and ios recognizes it's a tracking and will pop up from the text area saying track package! Android doesn't do that, imessage has won me over to overall, also another thing in ios that android doesn't do currently is the UA-cam pip feature, on ios if you slide the running video your watching all the way over to the side of the screen out of sight you can still listen to it playing! on android you can only make it really small and drag it around but if you tuck it out of the way it stops playing, & also Siri is better especially in case needed in an emergency because the screen can be locked off and even if you just say siri help it will dial 911, Android only few devices do that now even when you have the assistant set to work on the lock screen, Its odd some phones will call others but not emergency services which is odd to me, I also like the overall search feature built into ios better when looking for an app or whatever, It to me is just a cleaner overall easier experience, ya ios can be a bit boring at times but ios 18 is supposed to change some of that, So their are pros and cons to both, I do wish ios had a back button for example, but what I have never understood is how some people get downright angry arguing back and forth which is better lol, Just use what makes you happy and fits your life..
