      When something doesn't work on Mac (ex. games) or works but not optimally on Mac (ex. some portable music players), is it always the fault of Apple, or is it the fault of the other company making the software or hardware? Seems like people like to put everything on Apple's shoulders these days.

    The problem here is Apple's ecosystem is closed.
    While Google provides service everywhere like UA-cam, Google search, Google Maps. They are supported weather its iOS, Android or Windows etc.
    I think we should or I'll support Google more than apple just because of this major reason. We as user get freedom to choose our devices & services.

    Just getting around to watching this and I truly appreciate your approach. I'm a cross-platform user myself, more on the Google side, but posting this on my daily driver - MacBook Pro. I do have an iPhone 11 (not my first iPhone) and I just can't bring myself to escape the Android specs and ability to customize so heavily. My current phone is the Samsung Note Ultra 20 5G and occasionally pop my sim in the Pixel 4XL because it has, by far, the best camera of all of my devices. I can see the appeal of an ecosystem, but for me, it just seems too limiting. I like to be able to switch between my work Windows machine and continue on my Mac without being totally dumbfounded by the OS. I always say, use what you're used to if you don't want to take the time to learn something else. But, if you take the time to learn, you won't be limited to one thing.

Apple rose to the top with iPhone - the cash cow. But now, that cash cow is ageing and the story will change in 2020. Apple is undoubtedly a great company but my point is that Samsung is growing with it. Samsung displays are the gold standard in smartphones for a few years now.

      People aren't upset about sole sponsoring: Every viewer knows about those deals. No, it is upsetting that some reviewers now took the opportunity (read: money) to promote a product their viewership has no interest in - and that is for a reason: A vacuum cleaner is as good as an electric baby toy to the videoclickers who go to those channels for very few topics. And only for these they accept sponsoring and advertisements to happen.

    Love your videos man, you have a way of explaining and presenting things that is both entertaining and engaging. I always check your channel when a new Apple product is coming! And I must agree, as a long time iPhone user (started with the 4s) I have found it increasingly difficult to find a good reason to leave the Apple ecosystem. I switched once from an iPhone 5c to the first HTC One with the Beats speakers. There were things I liked about that phone, mostly the audio quality which was pretty impressive for the time, but almost immediately I missed iMessage. And now in 2021 with an iPad, Apple Watch and AirPods, I really enjoy the ecosystem and how well it all gels together. Got my AirTag preordered for my AirPods and I’m currently looking into either a Mac Mini or the all new iMac that just debuted!

The mission of these constructs is to reinstate their power while not admitting to their fictious nature. You cannot see an idea, a country or a city. They only exist in your intercollective memory. Instead you can see rock, glass and asphalt. We attach a story to these physical things; a nationality perhaps or a indepencence fight for democrazy against tyranny.

      Marty my first internet device was an iPod touch my mother gave me after she bought a new one. It pains me to see the iPod being left behind to be forgotten just like that, I think it would be great if Apple improved the connection between the iPod and Apple Music, and improved DAC to make it more music focused and keep it alive.

      You're so right. This kinda reminds me of Bill Gates. He and his partners created great software back when Windows was born, which consumers flocked to. That same software had to eventually be updated with newer versions, which we happily paid for. THAT made Mr Gates very rich, very fast. LOL...but the best part was that the software updates led to more variety and the cycle continues today...ever since the inception of Windows. Today, Bill Gates is aging nicely and his bank account is bottomless.

    Really liked this video a lot, honestly didn't think any one would "go there".
    I was heavy into the Apple ecosystem. iPhone, Mac Pro (Final Cut - Aperture) Apple TV and Apple Watch. Then I bought a Samsung Note, loved it but had lag, back to iPhone for iMessage and lag free phone, then bought the iPhone X, crazy more lag than the Note 8, bought a Pixel 2 XL "Wow". Decided time to buy a PC (was impressed with Windows 10, not the horrible system I once thought it was, I actually like it more now than Mac OS). I broke free from Apple prison and it wasn't hard, all I have now from Apple is the Apple TV and I like it a lot. Oh I did buy an iPhone 8 plus recently due to friends asking me to get back on iMessage so they could have me in group chats for iMessage to be blue for sending HD video ets (could not handle the tiny screen on the iPhone X, why I went back to the 8 Plus) and by this time I had already broken free and was using Google drive on the iPhone, for calendar, contacts etc I was only importing and using my Google account. I finally decided it was not worth having iMessage for the only reason to stay with a phone that didn't have the abilities the Google phone had as I was using all Google apps on my iPhone so what was the point, I was still within my warranty return time so I thought, yep, iMessage not enough to hold me as I had broken all other ties already and that was the last one. Took that phone back and put my SIM back into my Pixel. I feel like I left that beautiful prison you described so thoughtfully. Now im back to having some automation like saying "Hey google turn the temp in my home down to 72 degrees" can't do that with an iPhone, for some reason everything I bought does not work with Apple. Not my Nest (using the voice) my 4k TV, my receiver, PC all appear automatically in "Cast" on android. None of that works on Apple out of the box without downloading several apps and even then it's not as functional or easy. I love how well Google works with everything, no real walls at all, every manufacture just talks with it.

      I agree, I was surprised by how easy it was, I wasn't crazy about not having iMessage, but then I started using FB "Messenger" which is so much like iMessage, all the same features plus some others, and allowed for HD video in texts, video chat, and everything else one can't do on SMS MMS, to my surprise all my family and friends had Messenger so that made it easy. The biggest surprise was the huge gain in functionality, and how all my home devices connected seamlessly, I didn't expect this and I certainly had no idea all this great stuff was out there already. I actually gained so much more by leaving Apple, I thought it would be the opposite but it opened the door to so many other cool things. (I won't go into all of them too many, but one of the items was the VR on the PC and on the Pixel, so cool, made me wonder why Apple has none of this. I know they are in the infant stage if you purchase an iMac Pro for insane money, but you still have to buy an external Graphics card for the ports needed and still full functionality is not supported, crazy, it's like Apple is 5 years in the past and won't let anyone know that's how far behind they are)

    I use google chrome on my iPhone because I like how it syncs with my laptop, which is a surface pro, and I use Sony headphones and Spotify. I also have an Apple Watch/iPhone/Powerbeats pro. I avoided getting a watch or beats for a long time because I didn’t want to enter the ecosystem I fear getting too attached to so I really relate to this video. I definitely am very hooked to my current Apple devices though love my non-Apple devices.

Everyone is using the same software on all cellphones, Android or iPhone. Yes, you can customize your EXPERIENCE on Android much more than on iPhone. But that is just a feature. That has nothing to do with the openness (or closed-ness) of the ecosystem.

    As someone locked into the apple eco system I have to say this was spot on. I got into apple because I was sick of windows. Constantly having to troubleshoot things or having it update while I was in the middle of something. When I was in my teens I had fun doing that. Now that I am older and have responsibilities I just want my stuff to work without me having to do all the trouble shooting and research.
    What truly has hooked me lately ( I am not happy with the changes in apple since Steve Jobs passed) is iMessage and how well my stuff works together. I do wonder if there is a comparable way to do this on a windows or linux system. Windows has been getting better but still is not as effortless to use as a Mac for non techie stuff. Not ready to swap yet, but the greed in apple is starting to annoy me.

But with Apple, everything just works so well together and it rarely ever piss me off for lagging. Plus it's almost a guarantee that the Apple product will have great quality and will last a couple years without breaking down.

    eh. this is a pretty good summary, but it makes it sound like most people can't stop using iphones because they're trapped in the ecosystem. that's half the story. the other half is that most apple users are VERY happy with the performance and lifespan of their all apple crap, so they stick with the brand.
    i jumped on the htc thunderbolt, galaxy s4, nexus 4, and htc one m8, in that order. i finally got tired of all my smartphones becoming laggy, glitchy pieces of junk after their 1st year of use. so i left android behind for an iphone 6 and i've never looked back. never had to look back, because they hold up so damn well as they age. the android ecosystem is cutting edge, but it's too fast-paced to be reliable. one day i would be playing with NFC or geeking over all the things i could customize, and the next day i'd be wondering why the hell is the browser app running on high in the background and draining 40% of my battery while i'm in class.
    my family burned through mid-range windows laptops like crazy. bluescreens, cheap construction, quickly deteriorating battery life, lag lag lag with age, and etc. my first 2011 macbook air ran smoothly 5 years in, before i decided to sell it for half of what i originally bought it for. same goes for my current macbook pro. my parents kept accidentally infecting their budget desktops with malware, so i bought them an ancient 2009 macbook pro for

      I agree that for the general consumer (who is usually uninformed on tech) apple is a safe choice, such as the case with your parents.
      The issue with android/windows imo is that there is a lot of junk out there but there are also a lot of great devices if you know what you're looking for. I like the competitive market of android/windows and hate the monopolization of apple. You made some generalizations on android/windows products, but if you're a responsible tech owner you can get a better experience out of them assuming you pick a good one. I have a 2016 $500 oneplus 3T and a 2012 thinkpad x230 that i bought for $200 which both kick ass with all my day to day activities. Not ideal for artistic stuff maybe, but im in engineering school and run very computationally expensive CAD and coding programs simultaneously. Never gotten hacked/experienced lag over time/bugs (knock on wood). That being said if you don't know anything about tech and can afford it, apple is probably the way to go. Im jealous of imessage a little but not that much it's not worth it for me.

      i disagree a bit. the average consumer, who you say is usually uninformed on tech, is equally as uninformed about android phones as they are about apple phones.
      and if i could extend that further, i've noticed android fans who DO stay informed about tech usually don't know much about how the tech actually works or how it's engineered. which is why you can go on the internet and find a bunch of fanboys screaming in the comments about how awesome 6gbs of RAM and 4000 mAh of battery is, but then still find all these NASA engineers, JPL engineers, Google engineers, all my old aerospace professors, etc etc etc (people who i'd bet know a lot about tech, and who are actually familiar with engineering design and acknowledge the existence of software optimization) that carry iphones and macbooks and ipads.
      and yeah, i'm in engineering too. when i was in undergrad, i even i saved up for a surface pro 3 so i could take notes and run solidworks. it was great for a little while, but by sophomore year i realized the battery life on it was awful for my heavy schedule, and it clearly was unable to handle larger assemblies or FEA software from the bigger projects i was handling. so i went back to my macbook pro. installed windows on bootcamp and all the necessary apps. worked perfectly, as expected.
      i'm sure there are plenty of other great devices if you look hard enough, but that doesn't support the notion that apple makes poor products. if there's any chance you end up taking a design engineering course for your upper division technical electives, you'll likely get to learn about why Apple is considered an industry leader in product engineering.
