Why I Use a Samsung Phone (and NOT iPhone)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 15 чер 2024
- This is why I use a Samsung phone and not an iPhone. I recently got a new phone, the Samsung Galaxy S21. Before getting my Samsung phone, I did consider getting the iPhone 12 because I already own a MacBook and an iPad. But in the end, I still decided to go for the Samsung S21 instead of the iPhone 12, and I explain why in this video. Hope you enjoyed watching!

Might be good to start buying some parts for the pc whenever they are available as the market is crazy right now. A 3600 or equivalent should be good for cpu and a 2070 or 2060 or equivalent should be good for video processing. Definitely go 32 gb RAM and the case and stuff will be all personal preference.
You're gonna hit 50k this year
you more than deserve it well done
I think you forgot about the best part of owning this combo (MBP, iPad Pro/Air, and Samsung) is that you only have to carry one. ONE CHARGER. Since they all carry a type C port.
ang galing ah... plus 10 ka sa recit.
My iPad Air uses lightning port.
@@PastelMarshmallows Im referring to the iPad Air 4 which already has a usb-c port. ✌🏻
@@angelocarmuyot4392 you could have specified. There is only one iPad Air that uses usb c. The 1, 2 and 3 (I have 2) don’t use it.
@@PastelMarshmallows Yup! But you could also deduce that. Not all iPad Pros came with a type C port nor not all MBP released came with a type C neither. This is the same case with Samsung phones. If you can read my comment, the perks of owning "THIS" combo - meaning the devices she's currently using.
I use products from both companies. I use them for different reasons. I don't understand why we fight about it in the first place, lol.
You would think that they pay us. 🤣
Cause people argues without any idea about the other ones! Mostly 😶
@Ash Ketchum Companies have no rivalry but competition and that's important!!!!
True!
Because apple users are known for using their new phones as a flex and making fun of Androids
I literally have an iPad, Windows laptop and an android phone
All of them are good
Lol this is what I'm trying
Exactly my setup. Works for me too.
Same tho ?
My current existence right now, but the iPad is from work and I can't use it optimally... Currently waiting for my S7+ tablet to arrive.
Same, but my windows laptop is crappy
others : both are pretty good
me : both are pretty expensive
🤣🤣🤣 ikr.
Right :( l can't affort one but l'm happy with Moto G8 Plus😊👌🏼
ok, you make me chuckle so you win.

I love the fact that you have a Samsung. It’s like Marques Brownlee mentioned (and I’m paraphrasing here) when he said that we shouldn’t let the connectivity between devices from one ecosystem distract us and blind us to the fact that there are better quality options out there in the categories we’re looking for.
Connectivity isn't even that bad there's tons of workarounds but in my experience apple users tend to be less flexible about using workarounds
@@BC21beats I never said connectivity was bad? I actually implied the opposite.

Good video. I'm the same way: I use ipad and MacBook for deskbound computing needs but much prefer an Android as my main phone. For my main phone I want a sleeker design, best possible screen, better zoom cameras and top Android options all beat the iphone year in year out. Keep up the good work Ella
@Michael Oku yes a lot
@Michael Oku Oh, please. Apple fanboy, sit down.
@Michael Oku Cuz u are a typical Apple fanboy, dude :D We can all agree, that android market is better now, and everyone going for them. Most of the people is overhyped by apple, cuz it is the brand that they started to use. Nowadays androids is taking up the market. Apple company is just "Luxury" for its brand. Thats it. Im not saying that the apple laptops are bad. No, they are good for most of the things, but or tablets, phones android wins there. U shouldn't be mad or the truth :D
@Michael Oku Fanboy makes that u cant take any other device in your hands besides APPLE and APPLE is the best, and u can trashtalk androids.
@Michael Oku this is the dumbest argument I have seen on the internet this week😂... Thanks for giving something to laugh about.
I've been a Samsung girl for years, just gave Apple a try last year. I enjoy both now (have an S21 and an iPhone 13)
Love to see someone who makes decisions based on features and not just blind brand loyalty. Aside from my s21 and 13 I have a windows laptop and iPhone air. Lol loved this vid.
I had an iPhone and an apple watch. I got phone jealousy and switched to android. I blame my friends S10 plus. Now I have a note 20, Galaxy watch, and an android tablet. If I get a new tablet I would get an iPad. I loved my ipad. If I can ever afford a new computer I would get a Mac. I know apple products last about 5 years minimum.
I want to do the same. I bought an s21 and have a iPhone 12. iMessaging is making things wonky. Do you disable your iMessaging so you can freely switch back and forth?

Android is just way too much fun to use, i wish more people can be more open minded and try android phones, my brother has the samsung s21 ultra and it's beast! The camera on that things is insane literally the best phone camera i have ever seen, i wiill get one too
I love android because I can easily customize it and theres so many launcher, themes and many more
the samsung community on reddit agrees that samsung’s image processing is terrible which makes the images look bad
Yeah. I switch back to Samsung (s20) and it's a lot more playful and fun.

i used iphone for like 5 years but now my frontal camera doesn’t work anymore so i’ll but one adroid, and i’m so sad i’ll have an iphone and one android, i feel so weird 😭
Really great video! For about 5 years, I had each generation of Note. When my Note 7 got recalled, I decided to try out the iPhone. I still use an iPhone, but I also really love Android. I think it's awesome that there are so many different choices for us to choose from, and that there are plenty of 3rd party app options that can help to facilitate usage of Android and iOS together.
I love how you time stamped the parts of your videos, much easier to navigate
I feel a lot less alone now, I'm probably one of 2 Android users in my high school and what people fail to understand it's i just like android, that's it.
They always make fun of our notification tone/ringtone too
I love being different amongst the rest. I just educate the ignorant ones with certain stereotype about Android devices. Sometimes I challenge them to camera battles since most think Android phones have bad cameras and they always end up shocked with the results.
I live in romania so electronics are stupid expensive, especially smartphones. Iphones are pretty rare to have here

I use an iPad Pro as my main note taking and secondary media consumption device, sold my Macbook Pro for a Thinkpad X1 Yoga, and use an Android phone. Love this combo just fine.
This was so helpful! You were in the same predicament as me - heavily considering the Samsung over the iPhone because of customisation and generally better user interface...Would you be able to address how you use your S21 in conjunction with the Apple Mac? Ecosystem is currently the only thing holding me back and I would love to see how you make it work!
This is literally me, MacBook, iPad and galaxy Note and being a teacher is the phone that works the best for me. It's the one think can't give up.
haha!! and I thought I was alone in this world! macbook, ipad and note is the best combo!!
Me too
I’m a teacher as well and contemplating Samsung: have an I phone 12 now and back screen cracked. Kind of want to use the dex feature but my kids and wife all have iPhones and Apple watches. Grrrrrr
Same
@@nl7426 The note is such a useful device with the pen and Dex mode
I 100% agree! I'm also a samsung user and whenever I think about switching to ios, I think back to everything I love about android and I instantly think I'll never switch 😅. The only thing that I have to say is that Iphones integration with the apple watch is great. I'm not a fan of the samsung watches due to the lack of google assistance.
I was never a big fan of Samsung watches too but they're nice though. I ended up using Fossil watches which are great too. Rumors has it that the next Samsung watches will finally use Wear OS though. I hope it's true as I want that spinning bezel life 😄.
@@volcalstone omg same! Yeah I've heard about the fossil watches but they have those nobs on the side that make it look clunky. The samsung watches look so nice, simple and classic. Yeah I'm also waiting and hoping the new line up will have google assistant!
I actually just got a samsung watch and was sad to find out it doesn't have google assitant :( but I do have my phone on me always all the time so it's not too big of an inconvenience
The next Galaxy Watch is romored to get Wear OS instead of Tizen
@@CreatedbyEllaYT Samsung is going to come out with a watch 4 which will have a much better experience it will have android not tizan so it will be much better it will come later the year
This is the most detailed video I seen on this topic, you're the only person I ever seen mention the Always on Disply and the edge panel they're so useful and my favorites features
I have a mixed ecosystem. I use and Oppo phone, an iPad Air 3 and I own both a 2014 MacBook Air and a Windows computer (Hp Pavilion). I buy different products for different things, and it all works out well for me. Plus, having a mixed ecosystem makes me aware and informed about the products I buy and if the specs fit my needs.
Whenever you said, "OK Google" my Google Assistant kept activating🤣🤣.
Hello from Ghana🇬🇭 😊
@@judahboakye apple doesn't do that and google needs to fix that stupid thing [:
@@shinsekai7905 it already has, te person who commented hasn’t put voice recognition, after doing that google assistant only activates with your voice. 😀

People should use whatever suits them, and be happy about it and don't bother others. It is the reason why we have different options.

Hello I’m torn between choosing the iPhone 11 and Samsung S21 but people been telling me that Samsung lags overtime is it true??
@@sophiaalessandra5826 Ikr 💛
@@kore8391 I've had my S21 for over a month now and it's been perfect so far. It doesn't lag but I have noticed a couple of things, like sometimes the Internet cuts out for a moment (when I'm watching a movie or something on my phone it doesn't lag but sometimes when I click on an app it'll say "No internet connection", so I close it and reopen it and it's fine). That happens rarely though. Not sure if that's what you meant or something else. I don't have any experience with iPhones and don't like their layout and stuff but both phones are probably both really great overall. It's really just preference and if one does more you like over the other. I hope this helps 😊
I think as far as air drop, samsung has quickshare, which I think does the same thing. The only downside(as with airdrop) is that you can only use it with other Samsungs, and your other devices are Apple, so it might not work for what you need it to do.
I think they also have nearby share. I have it on my android tablet and my note 20. I use them when I want a phot from one and want it on the other. I dont know if all android phone and tablets have them but the ones I have do
I’ve owned both iOS and Android (specifically Samsung Galaxy’s) and prefer the former. But; Samsung devices are great too. I just never felt the need to customize my home screen with themes and icon packs, so I felt like it was overkill for the usage I gave it. It all boils down to personal preference and usage.
After using iphones for years, i switched to a Samsung recently and I'm loving it! The refresh rate is so fast, and the phone is definitely more responsive. I love customizations so i went all out w pink lol. Nice video Ella!!
Great to hear and thanks for watching :)
How was the switch for you ?? I want to switch to Samsung as well !!
@@trongum6800 samsung's newer models are some of the best phones you can get. And if you are into aesthetic things and stuff then i would 100% reccomend it.
@@-nashi the aesthetics are the main reason i want to switch 😭😭 all of themes are so cool and I prefer the Samsung widgets. It took me 3-4 hours just to give my iPhone a “theme” and it took others with more complex “themes” longer. I’m very indecisive and like to change up my customization a lot. But apple just doesn’t make it easy so I end up with just the default look the phone came as bc it takes even longer to remove the theme. I think I talked too much, I’m so sorry. Just know I agree and want a Samsung 😭💗
Yes for customizations! I've been using android for years and I've always loved finding new themes to change up my phone with. I also made my own theme at some point using KLWP and although time consuming it was so fun and satisfying to see the end product.
Ive been toying with the idea of getting a Samsung for my next upgrade and I think you were the last sign I needed to convince me to switch! Thank you 😊
loll nice!

Can you tell me how it's been. I figure you've already gotten it since this was two months ago for me.

OneUI or rather its overlay is actually the reason holding me back of buying the S22 over the iphone 13. Im glad you showed the themes, might get one after all :)
I have the same set up. The customization and edge panel is great user experience to get to apps that you don’t want clogging the Home Screen. Having the ability to put all the apps where ever you want on the screen allows you put them in spots that are easier to reach.
Hey, maybe this can help.
My laptop is huawei
My tablet is an iPad
My phone is samsung
As you can see I don't really belong in any ecosystem of some sort but I have Microsoft one drive and it is god sent I'm telling you. I can open all of my files in any of the devices I have. Photos, documents, and others. Plus if you're using chrome there is actually a feature where you can send copied files or texts to your other devices. The one drive helps you syns all of your files to all of the devices that you have.
Good, we should be able to use products of different brand and not be brainwashed into buying all from a single brand just because of brand loyalty.
Mine is like this:
Laptop: Microsoft
Tablet: Apple ipad
Phone: samsung
yup this is possible but not as convenient as being in the apple ecosystem.
My laptop is huwaei, my tablet is samsung, my phone is samsung.
Phone: Note 20 Ultra
Laptop: Surface Laptop 3
Don't need no tablet haha, both devices have real good drawing stylus functionality. I did a huuuge amount research prior and was real happy with this combo for what I needed at the time.
My cents are android has the most user friendly features especially when you're a student and you're mostly dealing with files.
Samsung is super viable for that reason, and the note series is amazing because all the shit you can do
@@wmoros4902 you can use a portable drive with a portable monitor to make a mini laptop . That’s what I do and a lot more portable
Could you recommend me some? I just switched from iPhone to Samsung (A52, nothing special though)
@@kingofthefall.1117 Id go for flagships, they usually have best power, camera and more viable features. Currently i have the s21 ultra, its amazing but I would also recommend the note series, i prefer the shape and the notepen is nice if you like to draw
Fantastic review. Really good summary.
Thank you so much Ella for the Airdroid, just purchased macbook pro m1 and really struggling in transferring files from my android to mac . Now I got it easily. Thanks
I'm also a samsung phone and macbook pro user. And i totally agree what Ella said. Samsung just brings so much more features than apple. I was an iphone user for 8 years before switching to samsung 2 years ago. Though i miss the apple eco system, I'm glad samsung is working hard to make that seamless connection with their ecosystem too. And not only between the pcs, pads and phones but home appliances too. Can't wait to see what apple and samsung brings in the future. Congrats on ur 10K! 🎉
How did you do with all the data on iCloud? What do you miss about iPhone?
@@nadialexa Nothing really as I am still using my macbook pro. So I just leave it in my mac. My iphone 6s is also still there but my daughter is using it currently. And there's nothing I really miss about the iphone honestly. In fact I try using my 6s again for a day and I miss my Samsung terribly. 🤭 If u use imessage a lot then maybe that. But I don't so I don't miss out much. Probably some features that ios have and android doesn't or late to the game.
@@marshellakoh7958 Thank you for your response! I'm looking forward to switch to Samsung :)
@@nadialexa You're most welcome! I hope you'll love Samsung as much as Ella and I love Samsung. ✌🏻
And here I was thinking I was the only one. High five to not being stuck in one ecosystem and having the best of both!
Hi Ella, I still remember first time I met your channel when you did an unboxing and reviewing Samsung s21 pink colour. Now your channel is growing, so happy for you ❤️
Yes, I am in the same situation, a MBP and iPad. For eleven years my smartphone of choice was iPhone only, started with iPhone 3GS through XR. iPhone perfectly fit the Apple ecosystem, love their integration. August 2020 I purchased my first Android, the Samsung Note 20 it is amazing, it surpasses my previous iPhones. After a year with this Note 20 I can say for my use I do not see any reason returning to iPhone.
Apple and Samsung ecosystems are equal, and work well with their respective devices. Things I like about my Note 20: one obvious reason is using the S-Pen and its feature set, make any app as default, DeX is outstanding, Samsung (Android) implementation of copy/paste is something Apple and computers should have, split screen, Secure Folders, and more are considerably better than Apple. For over twenty years I was Apple products only, many Apple products, truly a Apple gear-head. Now, with my Samsung Note 20 experience I am also switching to Windows.
I’m exactly the same! I use a MacBook and iPad but for phones, I think everyone goes crazy for the iPhone. Personally I find android phones clearer to understand and I just think in general the whole thing is neat and the features are fair.
Same that's why I went back myself and it's just better for me
Yes, people brag by saying they got the new iPhone when in reality I don't care for the iPhone. I'm an android user!
@@natalie46364 android is amazing! I like my Mac for editing music in Logic and videos in Final Cut Pro. But I really don't like it when it forgets my apple id and I have to unlock my account and it takes a million years because I don't remember the password or I don't remember what the security questions are. It wastes my time. I personally do not like iphones I had one and I did not like it. I had to figure out my apple id this morning because it logged out of my account and I use facetime to call my grandparents every day.
At the end of the day all that matters is that you get what works for you and what you want=D
PREACH 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
this comment should be pinned!
That’s it Ella you’ve convinced me, I’m getting the S22 Ultra today for work and keeping my iPad Pro, 12 pro and air pod pro. I was dubious about upgrading my Work phone (which has to be Android) but this video has really helped.
Thanks. 🙏
nice to hear your voice..soft, comfort n mom sound
I loooove samsung and your voice is pretty. 😀

As a none native english speaker, I love this person that speak a very clear in a very confortable speed... I understand all perfectly... thanks for the videos, is the second one that I see and I like it
Glad to hear that!
I feel like I just discovered a gem of a channel and you have so much room to grow. Can't wait to see you go to 100K subs and beyond this year!
One UI really made the difference for me, great video!
something you should also try is split-screen mode on galaxy phones too! i use the Galaxy S20, and the split screen function lets me open almost any app with another one (eg: chrome and notes) so i dont have to switch apps when doing two things at once! it's a major feature that's really held me back from switching to an iphone :)
Yep, and if you change a single setting in developer options, it allows you to do it for ANY app. So now I can watch UA-cam and insta at the same time 😂
But then you’re actually splitting your phone three ways with two apps and the keyboard which doesn’t sound like a very pleasant experience :/
@@shinikyokai8815 oh hardly. It was on my old $250 Android phone, but on the 6.9" Note 20 Ultra it's not just more pleasant, but it's extremely useful. The S pen makes it more accurate too for clicking on the things that are still small. Very few problems with it. Funnily enough I was using it a minute ago just before I popped on UA-cam. Taking down some notes from an inspirational Instagram post 😂
@@shinikyokai8815 I'll admit that sometimes it could a bit cramped, especially if your phone screen is small, but sometimes its really useful. i've once ran out of battery on my laptop and typed out my notes in class with the top half on the browser and the bottom half with notion open. Having a choice of doing that is better than no choice to do that
@@gabegalleries I simply wouldn't be running out of battery lol but great you have it.
So refreshing to see someone that thinks for themselves, and not just follow the brainless herd. Even if you ended up getting an iphone later, you still put some thought into it
bruh wdym "brainless herd" lmao
Like I don't even have an iphone no need to be so toxic
What do you think is toxic?
@@ianstewart4323 I have to assume lets be honest, teenage girls mostly, who get Apple "for the aesthetic" without any consideration to anything else and shit on Android with their unqualified opinion. I have an iPhone myself, but I have tried alternatives and am always open to alternatives when it comes time to upgrade, but at least I'm making an informed decision compared to simply going in blindly. I know what I gain and what I lose and I make my choice, if you want to know, it aligns quite closely to this in-depth look: ua-cam.com/video/165bpjQ2ZNs/v-deo.html
@@User-cb4jm pretty sure they get it for the solid experience since they’re not technical people and don’t care about niche features that some androids offer and the cameras on the iPhones are still best in the game regardless (I have a iPhone 8 bud I’m buying a S21 FE when it releases since I don’t care much bout the ecosystem and camera quality cuz I have a iPad and Mac already)
I am convinced of the truth value of quotes like "windows is better" and "PC master race", yet you'll never find me calling MacBook users (which includes Ella) "brainless herd" as I'm sure it fits their needs. On the same note, most people don't need a 50 MP camera, but would appreciate product longevity, privacy, and the fluidity of the Apple ecosystem. I don't understand why people like you partake on flinging shit in stuff like this. Using anything other than an iPhone won't give you a higher IQ lmfao. It's not that deep.
For the "copying things and getting it on another device" option you could use the Opera app on your phone. They have an option called "flow" that's like a chat window with yourself. If you are logged into your account in both devices, you can copy anything you want in that Flow window and have it immediately on your other device.
If you use chrome, also, there's an option were you can send links/pages to your phone in like 2 steps.
For transferring files, idk if you can do this between a mac and an android phone and viceversa, but you can try to send files via bluetooth. That's the way I get my stuff from my laptop to my phone. Dropbox and Google drive are also good ways of easily getting stuff from your phone to your computer, and viceversa.
One of your videos about samsung made me decide for the pink colour a couple of weeks ago and I love it
Ella: Google assistance is batter than siri
Bixby: What about me😥😢 I even rap for you guys🤧
@Doug Sawyer I would like Google Assistant tu see Alexa's voice.
google assistant can rap, beatbox and sing. It also has special holiday songs
Google assistant the goat
Bixby is fun but not reliable. My bixby has gotten better with the updates but i still think of her as friend not an assistant
And reads you ghost stories :'(
Samsung is slowly integrating with Microsoft OS, in that the Microsoft's Your Phone app (it works with iphone i think) in Windows 10, allows the integration of Android phone to PC to share photos and files
Their partnership with Microsoft also brings Microsoft's Xbox Gaming to Samsung phones.
Maybe when these big names collab more often. phones and Pc and tablets would work better with each other, across platforms.
I laughed so hard when I read Microsoft OS.
I know what you mean, but no, this is cursed and should not be used together xD
I'm obsessed with your videos great quality amazing content and B roll takes
Good info, thanks
Appreciate real world examples and how you’re not sucked in to being a fan of either ecosystem:)
Damn I also LOVE Samsung Galaxy phones, iPad, and MacBook Pro, I think this is gonna be the best self-ecosystem 😆
I'm lucky that I have a Samsung Galaxy phone 😁
I think this setup gives you the best of both worlds, thank you 😊
Yes you are absolutely right loved your explanation and reasoning
Really concise, well thought out explanation. Thanks
Glad it was helpful!
For the few things you had mentioned that apple can do, I'd like to give the equivalents for Samsung/Android users:
Apple Android
Airdrop = Nearby Share, Samsung Flow
icloud = Onedrive, Google One, Amazon Drive, Google Drive
imessage = Google message, Samsung message, facebook message, etc(all have bubble feature)
There are more solutions as well like Samsung Dex which can put your phone on any display or even on your laptop to easily move files around.
So at this point, it's truly down to preference of operating system
If only every one knew and used those fantastic features. Great video!
Thank you Ella, I'm currently thinking of switching to iPhone (I currently have a Samsung Note 10+) but after watching your video I'm reconsidering this. Thanks for the insight. Btw, you have a great voice, thanks for all the work and time you put in your content! Be safe 😊
Hi Ella - Excellent video! Very nicely laid out and informative. I have tried to break out of Apple’s total ecosystem for a little while now, especially with the new Galaxy Z Flip 3, but the iMessage lock-in is so tough to leave. Did you not have issues using Facebook Messenger in terms of family or friends not being on that App?
Thank you for breaking this down to everyone Ella. Youve thought me more about my Samsung S10e. And remind me why i left iPhone
What i also love about samsung (android in general) is that when you move photos from a map to another map on your phone it actually MOVES it and not just copies is like it does on an iPhone
Oh my God. Ikr?! This is such an annoying thing on the iphone.
@@jeriekae basically the reason I switched to a Samsung 😫😫
This helps me so much ngl, I’ve been thinking of getting the s21 but I’ve always used iPhone, so I’m happy to hear an honest review!
Been a user of iPhone now I just got my s21 ultra still learning but I think I will love it😍
Did you get it?
Thanks Ella for this video. I have seen this video multiple times and I appreciate your point of view. Personally I also love higher refresh rate on my s20+ and think about moving from iPhone 12 to it quite often but for me now after iPhone from last couple of years I recently started using Macbook on a daily basis. I had Mac since 2016 but did not use it daily as my office provided Windows laptop. But during lockdown when I switched jobs my new employer had a lenient policy towards BYOD and let me use my Mac for office work and then I realised how good is copy paste, Airdrop and iCloud across devices. Now it is convenient ecosystem which is outweighing the refresh rate. Plus Face ID is my fav feature which works seamlessly in dark. Also AirPods are such a nice fit I don’t want to move to Samsung buds. I tried them (Live and Pro) but fit is not as great as Airpods.
Sorry for long post but wanted to share my thoughts after seeing your brilliant video.
Also I wanted to know which phone you use today? Thanks.
omg i saw my bias Rosieeee and samsung really offers tons of cool features that we can't get it in iOS. Btw pip mode only available in browser for iOS but not the apps :(
Damn, it took you only 2 months to nearly triple your sub count! Congrats and keep it up!
I was surprised when she said 10k subscribers only 1 year ago, watching the video now with 200+ subscriber.
Masha'Allah, you deserve it keep going
Love the video! Being an android user myself, I swear I feel like people always try to pressure me to just get an iPhone already but I love the customization on my phone. I'll def be sharing your video whenever I need to explain why i love my phone. Lol
This is definitely a good video to show people when they try to force a specific phone on someone. I had an iPhone and Android and I will say every few years if you can make the switch. Like I had an iPhone 5s then androids then an 11 pro max now a note 20. I might get the S22 plus or a z flip 3 or maybe a pixel
I used to be glued to Windows and Android for my computer and phone respectively, but recently I have switched myself all in to Apple ecosystem. Got myself an iPhone 6s Plus back in June 2020 (a totally new unit, probably leftover supplies that weren't sold yet) and a 13-inch M1 MacBook Pro last January. I appreciate how my content syncs seamlessly between devices. Though I personally prefer the experience of staying within the Apple ecosystem, I'm still thinking of getting myself the nicest Samsung Galaxy and Windows gaming laptop out there.
for the photo issue, google photos is amazing! it syncs and its all on google so its universal. i have it on my phone, tablet and on my laptop~ loved the vid darling! doing well 💫
This was interesting! I was only ever a Samsung user and I finally switched to iPhone with the 12 Pro. I have a Mac and and iPad and airdrop honestly makes the few tradeoffs worth it. I do design work and being able to seamlessly ping files between devices is amazing. I also love the iPhone far more than I would have expected because Samsung makes amazing phones and One UI is so good.
its 1am, I am now addicted to ur channel and will be upgrading my android phone. thank you so much
I think this is the cutest Always on Display i have ever seen !
When you started to give it commands via Ok, Google my phone started to react :D
I am on my iPad right now and just bought the MacBook Air M1… and I’m sitting next to my s21 ultra and was questioning the iPhone 12 Pro/pro max. Thanks for helping me see I’m not alone in being platform agnostic.
I absolutely LOVE your icons!
As an iPhone user, I am pretty minimalist when it comes to my phone so the formatting doesn’t bother me & I’m not really on my phone much either way BUT also as an ex Samsung user there are certain aspects I do miss from my
Samsung. I’d be lying if I said I haven’t thought about trading in my 12 pro for an s21 ultra
Don't be shy, live ur dreams
I think I’m leaving iphone for Dex, just like using my phone for a PC. Get tired of always carrying my PC.
Apple sucks always late wit features... 😒
I’m the same! I’ve got an iPad Pro (2019), a Samsung S22 Ultra, and a Microsoft Surface Pro 6; they all seem to work to well! :)
I use Galaxy and Mac as well. And if you want to use a iCloud features on Samsung you can use it from browser. Just create an icon on your Home Screen to get quick access and that's it. This way you will have access to Notes, Drive, Calendar, Photos on your Mac or iPad.
Excellent video. I have tried to be all in on the Apple ecosystem for about a year now. There are benefits but there are a number of things that are just better on android. I feel like I’m making sacrifices to be a part of this ecosystem. Thanks for the video. Looks like you found the combo that works for you. That’s what we all should be doing.
I dont remenber how I found this channel cause im from Brazil, but im addicted to it
haha thanks for watching my videos :)
a mexican can relate 😌🖐
@@tpwklcdsm7167 hahaha
What I love about the s22 ultra the s pen, how much you can customise, split screen, the pop up apps, the camera, the bubble in the fb messenger, how you can write notes on the calendar etc… on this iPhone iMessage facetime & how simple it is to use with MacBook & Apple Watch.
Thanks for making this video. I already have a Samsung, AND I want to get a Macbook. What editing software do you use on your Macbook and do they play well with each other? Samsung and your Macbook?
and she didn't even mentioned the files management 😂😂
What about it?
@@muddyriver8350 way better than apples
@@jandellko I’ve never used android but the file management on apple iphones and ipads genuinely leaves a lot to be desired. I honestly wish they’d copy how windows does it.
Exactly. Copy, Paste, Drag and drop, able to access root directories, able to run exfat32, exfat, NTFS formatted usb devices
Also the Notification bar
same with me, I was an iPhone user for 7+ years, but I just wanted a change, I now have a Google Pixel, a Mac, and an iPad, it's a great setup for me, I don't like Samsung's UI, stock Android is so close to iOS, it's perfect
Personally I do prefer OneUI, I like the simplicity
One ui is too good
One UI gives you more options to customize than stock Android.
But stock android is good too, no bloated...
@@andyplay3434
I like one ui bloat. The bloat is too good
Thank you for making this video. I have been really thinking about going all in on apple. But I do love my samsung phone and you mentioned google apps I wasnt even using. So I will keep going and see how I like it with using those apps.
Thank you Ella, great job !
I love your videos :) I think its funny when my friends think they can only use one ecosystem :) as a cyber security student I love using many different devices and laptops thanks for your videos keep creating and have a beautiful day!!!
When the S10 came out the futuristic looks and great features made me switch from my iPhone X. I stayed with the s10 for about 7 months and loved some of the customization features (always on display was a big one)! However, I missed things from when I had an iPhone. Group chats with family members were almost non-functional (at least with two others that had iPhones), things like the weather app having ads just really didn’t aspire confidence, and there was just so much more polish throughout the OS/UI (the gesture system was so much smoother, for example)-to name a few. There were also things that came from being in the ecosystem already, like not being able to watch the movies and shows I bought from iTunes and having to always be at my computer to FaceTime. Also, iMessage does not have chat heads, but you can hold down on a message notification and see the last few messages in a pop up and reply from there.
Weather app ads don't exist anymore
I subscribed! You look so professional😅I am starting highschool and almost everyone in my family are using apple products so they gave me a MacBook and an ipad . And i wanted to get an iPhone. But I wanted to see what else can I get and i saw this video and now I think I am going to get a Samsung.😊Thank you!
Thorough explanation of the benefits of a Samsung phone. I use an Android phone for work and iPhone for personal and am comfortable using both. For typing and editing I prefer iOS’s method. Often, I’ll type a report on my iPhone and email it to my Android work phone. This is the number one reason I stay with iPhone and iOS. I’ll admit at times it’s tempting to switch to Android.
I actually bought an iPhone 12 Pro max last fall after always being a Samsung guy, tbh I thought I'd experiment to see if I liked it and also changed to test out the camera but I think overall Samsung has features and customisation that apple will always be behind in it seems, and I know apple users always seem to make fun of Samsung/android users but each year it feels like there's just less of a reason to stay within the apple ecosystem like other than imessage I didnt really see anything that the pro max had that my note 10 plus didn't have or couldn't do better in
it's so amazing to see that you can own an android phone while you're in an Apple ecosystem...
btw subscribed last week. loved your S21 and other content on your channel.. also loved your aesthetic vibe. as an iPhone 6 user, this convinced me to buy the S21. I hope your channel will grow bigger soon :*
UPDATE: just bought the S21.. And it's so sexy af. I don't care about the 1080p instead of 1440p or the plastic design or lack of sd card.. I'm really enjoying this phone. No regrets at all from IOS
A lot of people will use MacBooks cause they are really good computers. iPads are good tablets. If I had the money I would definitely get a MacBook and keep my android tablet and android phone
Great video, definitely food for thought. I am firmly in the Apple ecosystem for my home devices (as I type this out on my M1 MBA). I am super super tempted to pick up a Note 10 Plus second hand to try android again though. I had a Galaxy S3, and my old work phone was an S7 - though that's some time ago now. I've been on the fence about going to the Android for a number of compatibility reasons, especially since I also have an Apple Watch as well as AirPod Pros. Still tempted to just try it out for at least a little but, I think the most frustrating aspect would be having to download and buy all of the apps I have picked up over the years all over again.
