2 vids in 1 week 🥳
I am quite happy with my Samsung Galaxy A14 5G 😊
@@sebasspr i want to see his other channel too
Not tryna refute or anything but isn't the pixel 8 more worth the money than the 8pro?
I own a galaxy S21 Plus, will upgrade to a S21 Ultra soon.
This guy is too good! No bs, no "fanboyism", timestamps, cool host. Bro's outfit sort of reminds me of Alan Walker.
Also it's remind me of stormtrooper in hacker suit.
Bro he is new and he is super good. And the edit skills lol
@@ineasud Fr
Pretty sure it’s ai generated bro
@@mikelaurenzaphoto8486 The video or the script?
Honestly, I am willing to say this guy is one of the best, if not THE best tech youtuber. He cares about our time, gives useful recommendations in the comments, and is very overall informative. I love how he showed the sides of apple and android in a very objective way, which most won't do. Most will either say "Well it just depends on ur needs lol" or having blatant bias, but he just gives us the facts and truth. I am an android user, but I have seen many times where there has been clear bias against apple as well as for it. When they do that, it just wastes your time so they can try to convince you to join their side. I love the work you put into these videos, and I wish you well on your youtube journey. Also, I have a recommendation, I think it might be a bit nerdy, and you might not want to do it, but it might be cool to discuss the differences between macOS and Windows 11 (and maybe linux i guess) because it might be cool to compare features and see the strengths of each OS.
Love this video. I think the comments were very objective not full of fluff and
a result I have subscribe to the channel.
Evet bencede
truth.
To me Android is better butt I had to get an iPhone because of my job and most people in my family having an iPhone.
There can't be bias, because Android is always better than iOS, except when it's used in the Apple's eco-system. I thought that would be clear to anyone by now.
Btw, basic advantages of different OS:
MacOS: video/music editing. Win: gaming + overall popularity. Linux: privacy/security.
It was refreshing to hear a tech review that was mostly unbiased. He, of course, gave his opinion on why he chooses his preferred OS but he didn't neg the other based on his feelings and not fact. He laid out the pros and cons of each side and left it for you to decide if you felt the same or not. Most tech UA-camrs lean heavy one way or the other and will make harsh unfounded criticisms off the less desirable OS or manufacturer.
Fr true
Sadly it's an AI channel
He didn't mention a lot of cons that iOS have but yeah
@@TheMissingDislikeButtonI think his voice is AI-generated rather than stemming from his 'tech knowledge,' especially considering he has a main channel named Maske.
This guy teaches us in a more professional way how to buy properly. This channel deserves more attention.
Just hope he doesn't fall in the same pit as the vast majority of YTbers that do get the attention one day and change completely(for the worse).
I've been team Samsung forever, mainly the note series and then switched over to the Ultra. I currently have a s23 ultra but I switched my daily driver over to the iPhone 15 pro Max when it came out about 3-4 months ago because they finally got USBC. I've used it daily mainly because my wife, kids and family all have iPhones. Personally I don't like it at all! I stayed committed hoping it would grow on me and it hasn't. Who won the s24 ultra comes out I'm switching back to team Android. I'm still going to keep my iPhone but it's not going to be my daily driver
Hey just a question what would you prefer for better photo quality according to your experience ?
@@aashxqS23 Ultras are better. More zoom, better overall.

@@Nutters-vk7fp 💀
You don't even said anything why you dont like iPhone 15 pro max 💀
@@lol-yz2kd the Samsung is better at the way you can handle notifications, you can customize it to make it look exactly how you like it and from my experience in the areas I work I have a cell signal on my Samsung when I don’t on my iPhone.
Never thought I'd enjoy watching a Stormtrooper talk about phones. solid soldier. I bought a practically new Note20 Ultra in 2023. cause i needed the SDcard.
Im guessing u have a lot of files u need to store? Ive always favoured the phones with sd card slot for more storage however I only need to store photos and videos alongside some large games
This is called a real tech youtuber. Unlike those big youtubers who are owned by tech companies. Totally unbiased video which I appreciate 🗿
Keep it simple: "DON'T buy iphone".
😂😂😂
its at easy as that
I bought 15 pro on impulse and now I keep it up on the cupboard. it was hard to switch from Samsung to iPhone, but I still stayed with Samsung
@@Florycel Sell it to some sheep and buy yourself something useful, there is absolutely no point in supporting apple.
@@Florycel bad choice
Android for life ❤️

ong like i cant believe people still buy iphone 11s but with a buffed camera
Had a 3gs, then got an HTC incredible 2 to replace it with. Never looked back. Lol
Bro has an android 😂🫵🏽
@@mistaJ. Bro has a trash iphone 🦝🚮🗑️
That mysterious voice is what we all needed... Thank you
I love when he says "and that gets on my nerves"
Now THIS is what all tech channels should be like. No fanboy bs, just plain and simple objectivity. All phones have their advantages and disadvantages and I think he made this clear while making it easy to understand for those who know less about tech. Great video man I'd love to see more from you
Me who's watching this right after buying a new phone: 😎💀
Me too😊
No 😂 I always make sure I don't want to miss the return guarantee game or expiration window in case I have to return. I really push the phone testing driving everything I can think of to help let me know if it can handle everything you throw at it
Same here
iPhone are too overhyped...the camera is nothing special
Edit: Apple fanboys already in my comments, y'all can cry I'm not changing my mind & this video proves some of those points iPhone cameras are nothing special 💀
Not true, iphone camera is amazing and iphone price is not that far away from top tier samsung phones.. their macbooks are far more overhyped than iphones
@@antonioytmmacbooks aren’t overhyped at all, their battery life throws all other operating systems out the window. can use a macbook for 2 days straight without charge for basic uses, windows will hog on your battery. camera quality for video calls is unmatched as well. also macos doesn’t forcefully update itself unlike windows. did i mention apple is much more secure overall than boring windows?
@@zekenachodid you also know that you can’t play games on a macbook
But FaceTime only works with iPhones 😭😭
@@zekenacho macbook has better battery life but has much worse performance for money spend than windows.. also not all windows devices are laptops many of them are pc which are connected to power supply
Well camera quality on windows laptops is also amazing if you spend 1500$ on windows laptop
Windows does not force update lol.. reminding and forcing update are two separate things and you can disable windows update in settings if you want but its not recommended
With secure thing atleast say reason.. reason is that windows has by far bigger market share than macos and of course people will target more popular os but windows defender is amazing antivirus and if you are not dumb you will not have issues with virus in your computer
Should i talk about how windows is more fuctional, has dual monitor support, has better control over you device, has far more apps and games developed for it?
Your laptop video made it possible for me to buy the BEST laptop for my budget and it works fantastic. Thank you my new favorite UA-camr!
Same here exactly! I saved around $500 thanks to this guy!!
If u want to buy a phone please understand one thing 1000$ phone is only better by 20% than 300$ phone
Please make detailed comparison of iOS vs Android and Mac vs Windows. You're the best UA-camr I found who focuses on useful things that matter in daily life and doesn't want to sell things of a particular brand. Honestly judges all pros and cons. So, I would strongly recommend making those two videos and comparing all the pros and cons of these four operating systems that matter and affect the user experience of people in their daily life.
Tabiki adam gibi adamdır.
Keep grinding man. Definitely been watching you for a while, your knowledge has been very useful. Glad to see more videos coming out. I was lost in the "should I buy or build a gaming PC" to get away from console, and your videos broke down everything in a way I could understand and I'm not a tech person. Good content man. Soon I want to build a gaming PC, I'm only now left to decide on my internals and case. Thanks again man
Helped me understand more about laptops,now i'm here watching a new upload as a subscriber. As a guy who has almost 3 years spent from his life,on fixing phones and giving advices to people on wich phones should they buy,this video is very well done and put together.
Amazing description and video. Do you follow a custom template for UA-cam videos? This is pretty much exactly what I was looking for the algorithm awarded.
New subscriber.. I just finished binge watching all your videos. I appreciate the content and format. If you wanted to do longer more detail videos, I would definitely watch them.
One request, could you please make a video on home networking solutions. Comparing router types, protocols..etc. And answering questions like if I want to upgrade my internet service to a higher tier. What router would be compatible? Do I need a new NIC? You see where I am going. Not sure if home networking is in your wheel house. I would appreciate any input you can give, in your style of course. Take care.
truly an underrated channel.
No if he got more attention then he couldn't able to reply our comments 14:37
Yet another excellent presentation. 7:35 I wouldn't add anything other than to say that the Apple ecosystem is frustratingly restrictive for those of us who want free and easy access to our stored documents. For example, getting music onto and out of an android phone is vastly easier than its Apple counterpart.
For this reason alone, unless Apple decides to treat us like adults and restore our freedom, I would never return to Apple.
File management in iOS is terrible.
As using iPad and MacOS, i would just love using the apple ecosysem such as AirDrop,
But every time i plan to switch to a new phone, comparing apple and android, its always the same issue.
I cannot leave Android, File management, custom/modded apps/ downloading all files, with known extensions or not and other stuffs..
Freedom on iOS, will be one on the best experience in phone usage, be we are here still, in 2024 with a phone limited by is operating system
Great video! As someone who owns both, I appreciate the no BS approach to both sides. And also, I have found that links open in the correct app from a browser on iOS as long as you are not in incognito mode. Looks like you were in the video? 🤷🏽♂️
This is the go to channel for tech stuff. I loved the to the point video, unbiased and all about the product. Perhaps you can do projectors, and maybe at some point (dunno if this makes sense) get real techy with Xbox series X/S and PS5
Do you think you could do tablets next?
Love your videos btw❤
It was very refreshing to see a very simplified and straightforward roundup of the smartphone market.
It wasn't 100% correct and missed some parts that would have helped understanding each topic and provided more explanations and examples, but it's a great roundup.
Also your suggestions about looking for other tech videos and websites is very on point.
I wanna add, that on top of finding what device is right for you, not just any, will work for any carrier you may be using. So, you also have to research whatever you're planning to get, will also work on that carrier. Cuz not all andriod of the same model or just any iphone, will automatically work on any service. They all have specific radios to work for certian carriers. And some can handle many, but some are straight up carrier specific and will not work on any other service.
Aslo to add to the comparison.
Andriod predominantly (depends on brand and carrier bloat that said brand allows to be added to there own) allows more freedom of choice overall. Some can even let you sacrifice some internal memory, to add to your ram. (not all, some do). Still mad about going apple though. Cus having the expandable memory was a massive plus, and allowed instant access to your photos/vids/music etc from old device to new device. Plus, if you couldn't afford the more memory model, you sorta could get the same or more for less, with an expandable model.
Apple, pretty much tells you what to do with your OWN device. You never truly own it. And just today i learned from an iphone user, all cus he owed apple some money, they can and will, lock you out of being able to update apps, use apps, use your own phone. Andriod doesn't pull such shit.
Apple has been known in the past to literally throttle your older device, to try and strong arm you into a new one. When they are capable of lasting a little longer. Some features are either non existent or more a pain in the ass to even do. Not sure if my oneplus 8t can, but via another video, some andriods allow you to send a text at a preset time, instead of instantly if you chose too. Apple does not do that at all.
Apple is generally "faster" cuz it does less than HALF, what and andriod phone does. But it does it well.
As for price, Iphones even to this day, are STILL not worth the price tag. When that same amount on a high end andriod will give you much much more. So why continue to pay more for less?
Proprietary, until the whole FINALLY upgrading to usb type C. You could only use the lightning cable. Which, if you were low on battery, and needed a charge, but your friends or whatever are andriod users, your shit out of luck.
Apple is also very very scandolous in general. They have those who make their accessories (those both directly apple, and 3rd party) pay THEM royalties, for the RIGHT, to sell accesories for their products. So, apple makes bank off of others work. They get more than the actual makers of that item, do.
They LIE! when they said first ever sapphire iphone, only the Camera cover was sapphire, all other was same gorilla glass or whatever glass they now use.
Titanium, only the frame is, nothing else. Jerryrigseverything proved such in his tear down video.
When they say "never before seen" that means never before seen on an iphone, cuz android had that shit many years prior to they themselves adding it to iphone.
I wish i could upgrade to the oneplus 12, as for $800, it kicks the ass of most devices twice its price. (more for your money). But sadly, most carriers are in a battle between google pixel (htc is who makes em now), Samsung (not bad but overated), and iphone (overrated as fuck). So options are extremely limited now.
I appreciate your advice and think you are one of the best tech UA-camrs out there!
I have a request: could you please make a video on tablets?
I can not find as comprehensive and accurate a rating system and component comparison for tablets as I can for smartphones :(
For example, the data on Versus and KiMobil is not updated regularly, and many models or even brands are missing. Is there any reliable ranking system for tablets?
Thanks for the no-nonsense comparisons. It's apt.
Thats a really interesting video! I would like a lot if you consider doing some video like this about audio equipment maybe. Thank you a lot for your content!
Great video mate. Looking forward to watch more quality content on this channel.
You explained things really well.
Hey I just wanted to say I love your posts. They are beautifully to the point.. Direct and easy to understand and excellent points of things to look for across all your videos.
best youtuber ever, he tells you EVERYTHING you need to know.
hey man I'm new to your new content and i just wanted to say how much i appreciate your work. keep it up you've got big things in store for you in the future.
A very great video. I was impressed. The knowledge, no bs. Straight to the point. Got my subscription
also, don't forget to check
"apple anti repair" topic.
also new macbook models have ram and sdd soldered directly to the board meaning no change or upgrade
he could also have talked about privacy of android/windows vs apple =D
Company becoming more greedy that's why
Would you mind doing an indepth cpu/gpu video? I think that would be very intresting and fun to watch.
yeah i was more interested in that and maybe mention abit about ram and what virtual ram is n what having more or less means..
That's why I'm never regret my decision on fully switching to android, it gives me more freedom to choose what I want. Make sure you're using an Android Flagship to get the best android experience & performance.
Subscribed, Thank you for the detailed explanations and the links. looking forward to your other videos which I will look at.
Your channel has one unique point that make u different among other tech utuber. That is not wasting time, not talking bs and straight to the point. That ur signature and that made me to subscribe. Don’t forget this point , keep up growing with your unqiue.
dude can even explain life ... u making everything simpler ma man gg wp
This channel is pure GOLD
He wrapped it up!
It's also liquid
Nice Channel - I like your style. It might be interesting to explore keyboards and mine. Especially with the different types of keys, backlighting types, and reliability. I had two G910's with the Roma-G keys and both failed quickly. It might be nice to know how to avoid the problem keyboards, and how the different types of lighting effect the keyboard. Such as how the Roma-G keys keep the light inside the key and can have the Symbols above the Numbers, but other keyboards have to put all the symbols on the upper part of the key and have light spilling out. And how some keyboard like the k100 keep crashing and needing to be reset and re-setup.
Excellent and straight-to-the-point video.
As always.
Choosing a phone can be a very personal thing. It's not as simple as walking into a store and buying an iPhone or a Samsung Galaxy phone. I always do plenty of research when I'm in the market for a new phone, probably to my own detriment. I find that Sony offers the best phone for me, because they still have a headphone jack, no notch or punch hole for the front facing camera, and fingerprint scanner, among other nice features that I prefer. They're not great at updates though, as the Xperia 5 mkii that I have is on Android 12 and stopped getting security updates in October 2022, 2 years after release. But I'm nearly 3 years into owning it and it still works great and I see no reason to replace it any time soon. In the past, I usually would have switched to something else by now, but this has been a breeze. I used a Sony phone before this as well and I now use it as a media device for all of my music and whatnot. It's a model from 2017, and while it slows down a bit sometimes, it's still going strong.
There is a long list of reasons why I could never use an iPhone.
For anyone who doesn't know what's right for them, tech reviews are made for entertainment now, so there's no shortage of coverage on a phone you're looking at. Watch some videos and see what piques your interest. For me, if I weren't going to get another Sony phone, the Asus Zenfone is fairly similar to what I have and prefer.
My current phone is an Xperia XZ Premium and my next one will likely be the Xperia 1 V. I fully agree that the inclusion of features like the headphone jack, SD card slot and notchless display are very nice to have, albeit sadly very rare. In 2021 my XZ Premium suddenly died (2nd time) and still didn't turn on after a couple days, so I went for the cheap yet powerful POCO X3 Pro. A few weeks ago from the moment of writing this, my POCO's touchscreen suddenly died, with no prior warning or misuse (from my knowledge), which is why I'm back to the XZ Premium. Surprisingly, performance-wise I think this Xperia somehow runs faster than the POCO, despite being a lot older and having a worse chipset (SD 835 vs SD 860). Maybe it's because the UI in Sony phones is usually very light, which might make them last longer? I'm not sure, but either way, I'm 99.9% sure that my next phone will be another Xperia!
@@fujiwarachika2187 Funnily enough, the XZ Premium was an option for me around 2019 when I instead went for the XZ1. It was an open box model from a store not too far from me and it was only $200CAD, so I had to go for it. I still have it and I use it as a media device. It has my music library on it, much cheaper than getting one of Sony's Walkman MP3 players. It's definitely not a speed demon at this point, it was one of the reasons I upgraded in 2021. It was originally quite good but just bogged down for whatever reason, maybe the final update wasn't a good one. Crazy how the XZ Premium is still running well in 2024.
If you're not too bothered about updates, which it seems like you aren't, then the new Xperia's are really nice, despite what the reviews may say. The 5ii that I have still runs just about as well as it did almost 3 years ago. It could probably go another 3 years no problem, hopefully nothing goes wrong. Whichever Xperia you get, good luck!
iphone is stupid phone samsung is company dumb sheep
I am an Android user but I have used Iphones. Rather than suggesting which is the best in my opinion between an Android and an iPhone, I prefer to give further advice that is crucial for choosing an excellent Android. The absolutely most important thing is to have an installed version of Android that is stock or very little modified by the brand that sells it. Brands like Poco, Xiaomi or even Samsung tend to suffocate the operating system with changes and improvements that actually create 100% problems in the medium to long term, not to mention the fact that if you have a stock Android version all updates will be immediate whereas in other cases you will have to wait for the brand to update its version. All pixels phones obviously have stock Android but they are quite expensive. Brands like OnePlus and Motorola, on the other hand, modify Android very little. Personally I prefer Motorola. Another thing, everything and I mean everything that an iPhone can offer, Android is also able to satisfy. The only real reason to have an iPhone at all costs is because you have other products in the family ecosystem.
Agree with you in some things. I'm Samsung user and I'm very satisfied with regular updates and phone performing. All I can say is that iPhone is a joke for Samsung.
In my experience iPhones have a more refined experience than Androids with always a few less steps and frustrations. Barely any dropped calls, great RAM management without aggressively closing apps in the background, and solid integration with third parties like HP as well. My HP printer prints seamlessly with my iPhone without fail, but with my Huawei and my brother's Samsung S23 Ultra the printing is terrible and glitches galore with broken pages, now they tell me to print for them. My iPhone, AirPods Pro 2nd Generation, MacBook Air M2, all working seamlessly, if I didn't have a G Shock I would have an Apple Watch as well.
@@darthraider450 I can’t live without my Apple Watch, in my work I have to leave my phone in a security station, but with the watch I’m always connected with the phone, I can read iMessage and reply, use Siri for web browsing and ask her for some conversions, translate from my native language and the most important thing, use calculator haha 😂, the reason I chose iPhone it’s because all my family have one so I can interact better with them with this device, then came the AirPods and then the watch 😅
But sometimes I miss some Android features, like use emulators and do crazy stuff like run an old windows in it, but well that’s the life I think I will never come back 😊
I have a poco m4 pro 5g which l hate.. I recently came to the same conclusion to purchase a Motorola phone with basic Android experience and security updates which will be fine with me... Not interested in four or seven years updates as the cheaper phones will improve over the years so win win.. 😊
@@darthraider450exactly tested S24 Ultra and even needed an Printer Drive and some setup sturggle just to print in my Samsung Printer. On IPHONE just press print and your good to go works every Time. Also i had a lot of missed or late Notification on S24 Ultra even after disable battery optimisation.
The wireless pay NFC location is also wired in Android makes a lot of Problems on IPHONE just tab the top of the phone in the terminal works every Single Time.
Camera Performance especially in Snapchat and Social Media is still much better the Samsung.
Otherwise Software and Features on Samsung way better like Link to Windows, S-Pen, Clipboard, Multiwindow, Easy APK Install.
I rarely subscribe a channel. This one definitely deserves more subscribers.
Direct to the point and easy to understand even to non-techie people.
You'll have a million subscribers someday 🤞
🇵🇭
I watched all of your videos even though I’m not using PCs or monitors. The way you provide your content ist insane!!
Please don’t forget to do a video on MacBooks for instance. As a music producer I have the problem right now with finding the ideal MacBook. There are videos on UA-cam but I‘d like to hear how you compare these Models from i9 to M3.. also very interesting for videographers btw.
Keep on Going !!
Common misconceptions about certain topics within this video:
- IPS LCDs "offer an uncomfortable viewing experience due to IPS glow. Have lower brightness. Have worse colors...." and all that nonsense.
Truth and add-ons:
- Most LCDs of this day don't have the severe of an IPS glow. In fact: you'll only see them when viewing the display diagonally (from a very steep angle) AND when the display is presenting darker colors. But that won't disrupt your viewing experience...not even close. What will ruin it is 'Viewing Angels.'
- an LCD's viewing angles are meh... unless it's a QLED or a Retina or an OGS display (none these days). Most LCDs tend to have worse viewing angles than Oleds due to their linear projection of light, leading to the display changing brigthness and clarity as you as the angle of perspective becomes steeper.
- On the other hand, LCDs almost lack the issue with "flickering", or, in other words, "Pulse width modulation" or PWM, which Oleds have, often destroying your eyes, and some people are highly sensitive to these and get more severe the lower the brightness goes. This is one of the reasons why you can stare at an iPhone 11 or XR all day and not get eye-strain...but the moment you use an OLED screen, things go south. This is the reason why PWM Dimming has gotten popular in OLED and Amoled displays, in order to prevent that from happening.
- Another myth about LCDs is that it "drains more power." That simply isn't the case. In fact: It's the opposite. LCD power consumption remains consistent across brightness levels due to the pixels not having to emit light themselves, thus removing the need to increase power consumption in order to produce a certain color of light at a certain brightness...which oleds do. This explains why the iPhone XR and 11 had better battery than their Oled counterparts.
- Another myth is "LCDs have worse sunlight legibility." Nope... An LCD is lit by what is essentially a flashlight. If you've ever stared directly onto a flashlight in broad daylight, you now have an idea where this goes.
Since flashlights emit strong beams of light linearly, which means they're more focused, they actually remain visible to our eyes even in brighter scenarios. This makes LCDs require less Nits to gain more visibility under direct sunlight as the light is so focused, it actually reaches our eyes....until you view it side ways in severe lighting conditions, which do fall a part slightly depending on the display.
On the other hand, Oleds and its individual light emitting diodes are essentially flames. If you shine something brighter than it, it will become less visible. Which is what happens to most Oleds panels under direct sunlight, which many of you may have noticed. This is why Oleds have more severe reflections on their displays than LCDs outdoors.
- The reason why people see Oleds as "brighter" is due to Oleds having better light uniformity compared to LCDs. The light projected in an LCD has to pass multiple layers, which will impact brightness. Certain colors will be less visible and the crystals within the LCD display do take a lot of that brightness just to produce that specific bead of color. This is why some areas of an LCD look brighter than the rest, and this only gets more severe as you display a variety of shades of colors.
- On the other hand, since each pixel within an Oled display is self-lit, it can essentially produce a color with similar or the same brigthness as the rest, but this is also one of the reasons to the power consumption I previously talked about.
- However, QLEDs or "Quantom Dot Displays" and Retina displays have less of this problem. If you've ever held an LG G6 and wondered why the display looks so damn good, it's because of the light uniformity and because it's an LCD (flashlight). Imagine quantom dots as "reflectors" not "converters" unlike in the crystals used in LCD displays. These dots reflect light, but in a different color, all whilst maintaining the brightness from its source. This essentially significantly reduces the brightness reduction light has as it passes through the layers of regular LCD panel, resulting in remarkably better light uniformity and brightness.
- LCDs also don't get burn-in and are more durable thanks to being inorganic, unliked the "Organic light emitting diodes" (OLED), which degrade over time and are more expensive to the wallet and the environment.
- And the infinite contrast ratio for Oleds is more of a gimmick than an actual "advantage." Ever recall the display comparison between the iPhone XR and a Oneplus device?
Recall my statement about how Oleds need to produce more power to output certain colors at a specific brightness?
Well, if you've ever wondered why you had a better time watching movies on the iPhone XR, iPhone 7, and LG G6 than its oled counterparts, that's most thanks to LCDs lighting up colors that otherwise would be invisible to Oled panels... Sure, they may lose out on uniformity, but you'll see a lot more of the details in darker areas thanks to the backlight. But not all LCDs are this good, especially with the lack of innovation to the tech in recent years (at least, in the mobile space).
- Also. More vibrant and saturated displays tend to invoke more screen time. It's like moths to a flame. LCDs don't give that problem, reflecting on users of iPhone 7s, 6s, and XRs, who are usually casual and more active.
Why you should consider an OLED is essentially.... Gaming. Oleds have faster pixel response times, making images look clear even in faster scenarios. And with higher refresh rates, it essentially just widens that gap. It is also perfect for aesthetics with its inky blacks and wide array of color reproduction, and the latter could be possible for LCDs, if companies made effort to do it on phones.
Moving on to another topic: UX on android.
My advice for those who want an android device to use for the long run:
Buy Google's Pixel, or...
USE A HUAWEI, OPPO, Realme, or a Xiaomi device.
Avoid Samsung devices... Why? Better software optimization, better animations, and better software processing across all their devices (especially Xiaomi). If it wasn't clear with korean games such as PUBG and Krafton that korean software is pretty much an unstable mess, this is your wake up call. Samsung devices easily degrade over time, especially in more intesive uses. So avoid using them if you're gonna be using the device for a very long time. Their unstable mess of a software can take its toll on the hardware of your device over time, resulting in noticeable degredations.
Huawei is by far, the closest to IOS in terms of software and ecosystem.
Performance:
Samsung is good for a year or two (unless it's the exynos models), but just get a Google or popular Chinese models (avoid techno, infinix, and iTel).
This if you wish to not use iPhones. Which to be fair, remain smooth and feel brandnew even after half a decade of use.
Gaming:
For tablets: iPads, definitely iPads.
For phones: Android. iPhones tend to overheat and newer models can go make you a fried egg for breakfast with how fast they overheat and degrade as a consequence.
- Cameras:
If you're into videography: iPhones.
They are generations ahead of the competition.
If your're into photography: Android (Samsung, Google, or Xiaomi. Avoid Huawei as they tend to manipulate statistics when it comes to areas. Especially in DXO marks. This also includes Honor devices).
Overall:
This may sound cliche but...
Pick something that best matches you. I often pick the most unconventional devices (Huawei) as my daily drivers due to my curiosity.
What about you? What do you often tend to do? What do you need? And what's your budget?
Would love to see a video about TABLETS ipads love the reviews even if it is AI or is it ? i like it either way cheers
There's also need to consider about storage. On android phone (at least for mid range phones), there's a different type of storage for android (emmc and ufs). Since there's a 2 factors for input/output (io) performance which is read and write. In a nutshell read are just processes that you're doing to your phone if the file is already stored on your device (i.e looking for photos in the gallery or checking documents). Write on the other hand, creating and storing a file to your device (taking photos, downloading, you name it). Now for the 2 types of storage. UFS are far more superior than EMMC since UFS are able to do both operations (read and write) simultaneously, while EMMC are only working either of the 2 operations (after the read, it would be followed by write and vice versa, so simultaneity). that's why UFS is much faster than EMMC
Edit: iPhone on the other hand iPhone uses nvme due to the difference in file system implementation.
this is one of the best videos I have seen on youtube for a while. I LOVED it. Youre now one of my permanent go to youtubers. I sent your video to my friend so he can decide about buying a new phone.
Minor correction: the charge of batteries is given in mAh, that is milli ampere hours. By just saying milli ampere, you would refer to a current.
The Apple only ecosystem is the thing that is stopping buying a iPhone, we live in 2024, there's so many options to pick and try, why would you limit yourself to one just one?
To be more technical; detailed comparison of apple clouding vs android would be just as important and useful for many users. Icloud usability is crappy when it comes to particularly saving your files mac files on the icloud. Being a heavy user of apple products I had no choice but to continue with google drive as icloud has limitted use in many ways..!
Thanks for your videos!, They're really helpful for people like me that haven't bought a phone/laptop themselves and don't have "experience" in that.
Loved the way you delivered ❤
The thing about Iphones begin more expensive is true. In most countries the prices differ from the prices in the US. In here a s23 ultra 256 GB is 300 $ cheaper than a Iphone 15 pro max 256 GB. As for the video quality on instagram having better quality has nothing to do with favoritism. in the last few years Iphones simply has the best videos quality, hence the difference in quality on instagram.
Keep up the great work with these professionally impartial videos: very useful and accurate advice without bias.💙👏
Size also matters, my hands are not small at all, and yet with my P30 pro which i plan on using for even longer than i already have, it's really next to impossible to type on it with just 1x hand, and if you try to type with both hands, most of the time you will not be able to see what you are typing at all, while my previous P9 can be used one handed quite well and with that, no two handed problems. Phones that are not as wide are mostly only Sony Xperias(even smaller than above mentioned P9).
6GB RAM is the sweet spot for all phones if you do not care about gaming and just everyday use, my P30 Pro never lags/stutters or anything like that even after 4.5 years of use. Cheap phones have also gotten very good for the price, they mostly lack the polish and the camera of the premium phones nowadays, while some years ago they would start to lag due to software updates requiring more and more RAM.
Buying used old flag ships is so much better value for dollar.
New subscriber here. Best comparison video I’ve ever seen. Also, very informative. Thank you!
Brilliant idea for a tech channel! Subscribed!
Everybody ingnores the factors for every phone and get fooled by these comparisons. This guy is so right.
you should've mentioned the great downsides of iOS closed system & source.
leading to a big batch of restrictions.
Where were you all this time? Just found your channel today and you're my favorite Tech-Tuber so far.
Excellent - explained so well. I have learnt a lot. Thank you
Next video: DON'T breathe WITHOUT watching this video 😂😂 . Can't wait for that one.
What app do you use for your AI voices?
The whole thing is AI lmao 🤣
@@RealTechGeekwhat voice tho?
@@johnweak6788 One of the most basic AI voices.
@@johnweak6788the guy's voice, if you watch his don't buy PC before you watch vid, you'll hear a younger voice
Great content, no beating about the bush, unbiased analysis and reviews. The best tech content channel by far. Keep it up Mr. Mysterious
I love your work. Smooth and very informative. Thank you.
En almacenamiento pudiste haber hablado de la tecnología UFS y sus variantes para poder elegir :)
I've noticed that iPhones don't last as long as androids do. I've only been able to compare the Samsung Galaxy series with iPhones, but I am writing this comment on my Samsubg Galaxy S8 which is still thriving and hasn't slowed much since I got it 5-6 years ago. The longest I ever had an apple phone last was 3 years and it becomes impossible to install new updates or to browse on your phone without it lagging every 5 seconds. I feel like apple forces you to buy newer models every couple years by lowering the quality of the phone life, but I'm not an expert and this is only what I have noticed personally. Thank you for the instructive video!!
Absolutely not. As someone who works as technical support for Apple devices, I regularly see old iPhones as well. Had an iPhone 7 in today. Although not perfect, as any old phone, it still worked just fine.
Have had 10+ old Macbooks, and no they can do everything, but neither could my 10 year old Windows pc I have stacked up on the shelf.
Just discovered this channel today. Intrigued. Comments are flattering!
So awesome to get thorough and trustworthy tech info. Thank you so much. ❤
I really love your type of content, always explaining in a simple and objective way. You've told truths about Apple that no one has ever had the courage to say, such as the issue of cameras. Unfortunately the price of Apple cell phones here in my country, Brazil, is very expensive and it is unfeasible for most to buy them, so many prefer Android for its cost-benefit. You could make a video about the famous portable consoles such as Stream Deck, Rog Ally, Legion Go etc, or make a video about the common consoles, PS5 and Xbox Series. Thanks for the videos ;)
$600 phone vs $600 desktop?
Why is this even a question? $600 Desktop/laptop is much more superior than a $600 phone in soo many aspect both in work and gaming, the only thing Mobile phone wins is the mobility...
Desktop gave you wider range of programs to work and video games to play with, and dont even start with the performance, a $400 desktop 2x more powerfull if you got the components right.
You just got a new sub , Keep up the good work man
I'm grateful to have found your channel .... it's really informative and to the point.
I have a question and I hope to find an answer: my laptop is really heavy and I was thinking to shift to Samsung Tablet S9 ultra, I'm a trainer and my work is all about traveling and presenting PPTs, do you think Samsung Tab will be a good choice to replace my heavy laptop or do I upgrade to a slimmer laptop?
He said to avoid iphone but still recommended them on his list. I’m confused.
Love your content. Hope you can cover consoles next :)
Just discovered your channel I have to say I'm very impressed with your presentation of the data. Unbiased and straight to the facts with no fancy effects or other nonsense. We definitely need more channels like yours out there
Could you make a guide on UA-cam marketing? I know you guys are a tech channel but I don't remember seeing you guys anywhere and now you're everywhere. How did you do that??
Before the video starts I press like because I know how awesome it will be!!! You are the best, keep it up !!!
I would like to add that certain Android phones use Stock Android. The perfect example of this are the Pixel phones. But Nokia and Motorola come very close. All other Android phones such as Xiaomi, Huawei, Samsung etc have their own MODIFIED version of Android (eg in the case of Xiaomi it's MiUI and in the case of Samsung it's OneUI).
Now, Xiaomi it's HyperOS
They are called Android skins. Skins vary by OEM
I just gave the very same suggestion 😂🎉
Nice topic. Could you make a video about android and windows ecosystem that can substitute apple ecosystem in terms of transfer files and copy paste between devices or many other features in apple ecosystem ? I think it would be interesting one.
I trust this guy’s videos so much 😂😂
First on my birthday!
Woo-hoo!
Learning a lot here! Thank you for creating all these videos.
I'm new to this channel! I like your style & those informations are ... I don't have world Broh! Nice work! Keep it up!
I was a vivid android phone user, but decided to switch to iPhone 12 2 years ago and have never looked back ever since! Before I had a Samsung galaxy phone that was overheating like crazy to the point where you couldn’t touch the phone! But never have I experienced such issues in the 2 years of using the iPhone 12! And it still works like brand new despite falling several times on the floor without any casing or screen protector and even holds the charge for at least 6 hours daily with normal usage like web browsing, watching UA-cam videos and playing some games! The camera is also amazing! I love my iPhone ❤️
The Samsung was probably using exynos chip
You know nothing about phones and you're just another isheep fanboy. iPhone is a joke for Samsung, but you never had the best Samsung flagships to realised it.
@@axamesvcOr he just tried another product and liked it better. Samsung phones were absolute garbage up until the s10 line. Anyone who switched had good reason to.
@Brian-wp9er absolute garbage?... Definitely not. I remember iphones were years late to the big screen that Samsung offered. Even edge to edge screens in the s7 variants. They were trying new things and had exotic tech😮.
@@ImThatChosenOne I can write a whole essay on why samsung phones were garbage. Biggest reason I switched was the inconsistency in samsung software (android in general) and virtually no software support, which isn’t the case now, but still not as good as google or apple. Part of the inconsistency was owning a perfectly capable phone but being limited to only 2 years of software support. Also some carriers locked you out of certain features. For example tmobile wouldn’t give you rcs messaging when one ui 1.0 supported it because they had their own messaging system. Tired of having bloatware bogging down the phone. Idle battery drain on android phones back then were also absolutely terrible. My old s9 would just drain ridiculously fast in my pocket unless I left it off. Having 2 different OS on one phone taking up unnecessary storage. Apps have always and continue to run worse on android phones. Since samsung I’ve been with ios and pixel phones and the experience is just way better. I don’t know what it’s like on samsung phones now but I know back then it was terrible. And im not risking $1000 on a potentially dissatisfying experience again.
Believe me or not this whole channel run by AI
I know but the person is not ai but everything else is ai generated
All we want is information whether AI or not the information in the video is legit.
youtube.com/@MaskeUA-cam?si=xOlau5Ogp9yLswNS This is original channel it's Turkish
@alexpotiodi7024 no even person is AI... like which software he is using.. anyone know??
I like your style; very informative, to the point and not boring! Excellent video!
This is the first video I've seen from this channel, and out of all the videos of "best phones 2023/2024", this is the first time I see someone truly explaining every little tech/important details in such depth. Being someone that likes to make well informed purchases, I feel like I just found gold. Hulk smashed the subscribe button so hard my phone yelled in pain
Bro you have very few videos on your channel but its so useful I couldn't not subscribe, keep up the good useful work I'm sure you'll be rewarded for these information, love your voice and the way you present the info over the video, please let this be a big channel I think its the most useful channel I've ever seen
Bro, why did UA-cam recommend you on my feed, I know most of it but the quality of info is engaging! Imma share this next time if I need to explain
This guy really had it nailed about explaining tech especially the one on laptops, he really helped me distinguish between them, the best ever explained tech reviewer keep it up.
great video, thanks you got lot of good info
Straight to the point
Thank you
