Thanks to you this video actually have 5 minutes more information on how to transfer everything properly from iPhone to Android without losing much of your information. Thanks 🙏🏿
Google should make Samsung's Smart Switch the standard for iOS to Android & Android to Android data transfer. Much like how Samsung's Quick Share replaced Google's Nearby Share.
I've just moved to a pixel 9 pro from years of iPhones, and it's excellent. Good advice about switching off iMessage as I have a Mac and forgot to do that- one of my friends texts me via iMessage and they only come through on my MacBook! The face ID on the pixel doesn't work in the dark, but it just reverts to the on-screen fingerprint reader which works brilliantly. I don't miss my iPhone really - only miss it when I'm using the apple TV box. It's just nice to have an upgrade that is different and customizable. I will probably go back to iPhone one day but only when something different comes along.
@@Dareyoutoyrythe app wasn’t even that bad it was $4 a month😂 and the the speeding I’ve done worse and ik hella others who have too. Wasn’t even school zone. Jus a empty straight road
I recently switched from an iPad air3 to Samsung Tab S9, best thing ever done. Much better with a great screen and includes a pen. The start was when I switched from iPhone to Samsung Galaxy S21 and last year to the S23. Love android, just need some apps to align with android, Facebook, for example.
I can't believe I'm saying this, but in my quest for a quality compact, I have just bought an iPhone 12 mini. I love my Samsung S23, but I may cross the streams and try to live with the 12 mini. It is delightfully tiny. 😮
I know exactly how u feel so I've been thinking of switching to IPhone but I hate Alot of things about IOS. There are some upside to Apple tho like more apps and better optimization as well as iMessage and FaceTime so I ask was the switch worth it and why?
I’m switching from an iPhone 14 Pro to a Samsung z fold. I have been part of the Apple ecosystem my whole life, but I am not excited by their products anymore. This was very helpful, thank you!
I would recommend a OnePlus phone if you want to switch to an android at the OS is probably the most similar. But you can also install a bunch of apps from the play store to have your phone look exactly like iOS.
Switched from i15p to the regular pixel 9 a month ago, first week I was worried id made a mistake but a month later after squashing the issues, Im really enjoying the pixel. Have to say the two best and biggest noticeable differences based on my usage are the battery life and the quality natural look of photos.
Although I've been a dedicated Samsung user since my first S4, the ability to choose a phone from a wide array of manufacturers at myriad price points is one of the best reasons to stick with Android. Apple wants to lock its users into the iCult, where it can charge ridiculous prices for phones that vaguely promise the features you just paid for at some unspecified future date.
I’m going to move back to android. I had one and was happy. Swapped to an apple 14 pro max and it’s been fine but I’d rather have something that I can customise better. So this week I’ll be pulling the trigger on a Google pixel 9 pro fold! 🎉
Switched from S10 to iP 11 back in 2020 - never looked back. Currently on 15 Pro. I do enjoy the channel though, gotta love that old style banter :D. If I ever were to switch back it would be to the regular sized S-series. Shame they dropped the SD card support for samsung flagships :(

@@DareyoutoyryI switched to iPhone in 2022 for some reasons, same reasons are keeping me glued to this. Overall, if I could - I’d threw it out of the window and got back on an android bandwagon. No os is perfect, iOS too - stupid lags and glitches from time to time. Can’t get rid of things, can’t make things work the way I want - always need to adjust to Apple’s way of thinking. Stupid safari and cant get rid of it and also everything is a WebKit on iPhone anyways. Stupid flying turd and lack of the fingerprint sensor pisses me off from time to time. Other than that - cameras are alright(iPhone 14 Pro), screen is alright on Pro. Apple does everything to vendorlock you and they are doing it good. Privacy-wise - I don’t trust either of the big tech companies, both are greedy and data mining. You can be a multibillion or trillion company without doing shady things. One thing that I can on Android and can’t on iPhone - install a firewall and block every communication I don’t want to :)
@@DareyoutoyryI switched from an s8 plus to iPhone XS in 2022. I loved android but apples software support is way ahead at the moment. Whilst everyone bags on apple for slowing down older devices the iPhone just felt faster and it was a similar age. I now have a 13 pro and loving it. A high end phone is a high end phone so each of them will have great battery life, camera, screen etc no matter if you choose apple or android. Go for an older iPhone and if you like the experience then get a newer one. I’m using the 13 Pro and it’s very similar to the latest devices minus the ai features which I would never use. iOS has some annoyances that take time to get used to but I thought the switch was well worth it
The things that still keep me for using Apple products are MacBook and iPad. Apple really need to do some serious works for iPhone, they’re falling behind now. Android phones are amazing!
@Randomdude21-e So many things. I can make a list about them, like split-screen, fast charging, reverse wireless charging, and freedom of customization. Being able to do anything with your phone is basically what iPhones lack the most. And there are many still lot of things. Also, in terms of the camera, the iPhone is again left behind. Many Android phones can now zoom up to 100x, although Samsung is the pioneer in this feature. And Huawei. As of recently. Iphone adapting older android features. Such as moving app. They also recently joined rcs. Oh you can also pause video in iphone now. Which again they call this a new thing. Pathetic. And now you can record a call.

Phone manufacturers should make it easier to transfer credentials (passwords, passkeys, etc.) across platforms. There should not be a need for a PC/Mac in the middle to migrate these.
I was a diehard Apple fanboy. Until two years ago my iPhone broke and got no money to afford a new one. I hesitated about Android but bought the Google Pixel 6a. And since then i loved the phone more than an iPhone. Still using the Pixel 6a. Would next year upgrade to Pixel 9 or 10.
It is very interesting to see how both of us have completely opposite experiences. For you, the people you talked to wanted to switch from iOS to Android and nobody the other way around. For me, it's the exact opposite. Everyone I know and talked to have been switching from Android to iOS in 2023 and 2024. While nobody switching from iOS to Android. Thanks for sharing your perspective :)
Good point I have been on both and I have been backwards and forwards a few times but gotta say iOS cuts it for and when I got my 15 PM I decided I’m sticking with Apple. Simplicity and customer service rules
Switched to a nothing phone 2a from an iPhone 12 mini experience has been very good so far obviously the software is not as smooth however the battery and other things outweigh the downsides overall it was a good decision.
crazy thing about the Pixel is that ALL of the data the Google gleans from every Google user in the world is put into the apps on Pixel phones to make them way more useful and helpful than any other Android or Apple phone. i was shocked to see how much 'smarter' Pixel phones are than other phones.
I switched from the S10+ to an Iphone 11 pro max and since then I havent feel like I need to charge to a newer phone. I really like that in the iphone eveything works well (until now). I am still using it eventhough I think its time to look for a new one because my battery is around 75%.
I got out of iPhones when I was going to upgrade my 4s! My wife dropped her phone down the loo, so she had the iPhone, and I went out and bought an HTC One M8. I couldn't believe how good it was compared to the iPhone. Since then, I've had phones from OnePlus, and Xiaomi/ Redmi, and will never go back to the dark side. 😉
I'm thinking of making the switch after lots of years of iPhone use. Love the iOS eco-system for ease of use, but I'm finding it increasingly hard to justify the cost of an upgrade for a largely identical phone. Any recommendations for what to go for next after my iPhone 13?
"...don't blame me if you're some kind of rabid Apple fan who's clicked on this video purely to spurt a seething tsunami of venomous fury in my face like some kind of horrific rage bukakke." poetry
I was an Android guy since the HTC Dream, but I relapsed with iphone 13 mini, because 3 years ago all Android phones were a large brick. But I'm planning a grand comeback this holiday 😂
Cool nice video! I thought it was going to be a very unneccesary painful experience but it seems easy enough, just a question when copying the iPhone’s photos and videos, will it include the albums/folders or will it transfer everything at once?
The only thing im nervous about is the group chats! im scarred from the mess it was before. Seeing the RCS messaging finally roll out on iOS does help my anxiety a bit lol
I do it occasionally. Just to see "what's changed" in iOS. iPhones are great phones. They just lack true multitasking abilities like screen split for two apps at once. Important for me cause I like to reconcile with my banking and budgeting app
@krskadave There are iPhones in the family and I admire them and the whole iOS but there're a few things I can tell in 2 days, that I couldn't get used to. The keyboard is the major one. I use a full Hungarian layout in Gboard. Special characters do exist but not the layout.
I'm a person who prioritizes freedom, it all started from Android Enclair, then Android introduced Root and that loyalty remains until now, used to have Iphone 4s and Iphone 10 Max, solid in terms of smoothness, but due to many limitations, that's what made me getting bored quickly using the IOS system, that doesn't mean I hate it, but my heart rejects it due to the desire for freedom as a Power User.
When switching to Google Pixel, your messages don't get moved over and Google doesn't seem to know how to help out with this issue. Unfortunately that was a pretty deal breaker for myself.
I have moved to android after been on apple since the iPhone 3G. Only thing I struggle with is the photo albums on iPhone are easy to deal with. I haven’t found a way to recreate this in google photos. Have a work around using Samsung gallery but feel I’m stuck using Samsung phones now.
An old mage of mine used to work in the old carphone warehouse and we used to joke about how sad it was to own an iPhone 🤪 + how he advised people onto android!
So the Pixel5a stopped getting updates this week. That's barely three years of updates. My iPhone has had more than double that, and still going strong. Tell me again now Android is better when its core company, Google, won't even support their own kit.
Was a die-hard android user for years, tried an iPhone, actually quite liked it but had the opportunity to switch to a pixel once again and I'm happy to be back but I must say iPhones really are leaps ahead in certain instances
The first step is to find a device you like the look of. Currently there is no hardware I like that runs Android, as I prefer the smaller form factor of the SE / Mini. I don’t have any ecosystem ‘holding me back’, just the phone. There are no good similar sized Android phones with good software support. You can get a new SE at a steep discount if you don’t get it specifically from the Apple website (who does that anyways?). The internals of the 2022 SE are a bit overkill though for such a small phone.
Each to their own. I have an iPhone as a personal phone and a midrange android as a work phone. I would chose the iPhone any day, but respect that android is more customisable, loads more choice and making apps etc is easier.
Android and especially Samsung has come along way with seamless integration. I agree apps need to work better especially content creation type apps.. but I don't do that. I just need to get Microsoft office 365 and I'm pretty sure my Samsung tablet will work like a lap top

crazy thing about the Pixel is that ALL of the data the Google gleans from every Google user in the world is put into the apps on Pixel phones to make them way more useful and helpful than any other Android or Apple phone. i was shocked to see how much 'smarter' Pixel phones are than other phones.
I switched from an s10e to a 16 Pro and I’m in love. Apple’s iPhones are so refreshingly simple and bloat free.
I switched from the S10+ to an Iphone 11 pro max and since then I havent feel like I need to charge to a newer phone. I really like that in the iphone eveything works well (until now). I am still using it eventhough I think its time to look for a new one because my battery is around 75%.
Yeah because the 16 pro is a brand new phone with more features than a 5-6 year old phone.
I got out of iPhones when I was going to upgrade my 4s! My wife dropped her phone down the loo, so she had the iPhone, and I went out and bought an HTC One M8. I couldn't believe how good it was compared to the iPhone.
Since then, I've had phones from OnePlus, and Xiaomi/ Redmi, and will never go back to the dark side.
😉
I'm thinking of making the switch after lots of years of iPhone use. Love the iOS eco-system for ease of use, but I'm finding it increasingly hard to justify the cost of an upgrade for a largely identical phone. Any recommendations for what to go for next after my iPhone 13?
can you do a vice-versa video mate.?
I promise he won't.
"horrific rage bukake" I spit my coffee out 🤣
Went from a i15 to a P9. Pixel is a straightforward movement from iPhone.
"...don't blame me if you're some kind of rabid Apple fan who's clicked on this video purely to spurt a seething tsunami of venomous fury in my face like some kind of horrific rage bukakke."
poetry
Thats samsung users😂 just look at all videos here on YT. They are everywere spamming about their s24u😂
@Randomdude21-e Those are the worst out of all tech fans on YT ... Every post is screaming how fantasizing their S24 are lol 😂😂
I was an Android guy since the HTC Dream, but I relapsed with iphone 13 mini, because 3 years ago all Android phones were a large brick. But I'm planning a grand comeback this holiday 😂
13 Mini is a fantastic phone, but it has a poor battery life
@@Xerxes_OP sad but true
Wow HTC… that shows some age 😅
Cool nice video! I thought it was going to be a very unneccesary painful experience but it seems easy enough, just a question when copying the iPhone’s photos and videos, will it include the albums/folders or will it transfer everything at once?
My wife moved after the iPhone 5c and would never go back now. She still loves her flip3 and it's also better for her work.
The only thing im nervous about is the group chats! im scarred from the mess it was before. Seeing the RCS messaging finally roll out on iOS does help my anxiety a bit lol
im swapping from iphone to pixel 9 pro in the next week after my contract finishes :D
What's your opinion on honey trap
Thank you so much for sharing this info!
Awesome video! I love my Google Pixel 9 pro xl
Chris... Still spurting that lovely Huawei GT Pro 5 I see... 😊
Don't think I've ever seen you wear the same smart watch for as long...
Great video Chris. I love Android but do like 🍏 smartphone too. I think you can’t go wrong with either
- How to switch from Android to iPhone?
- You don't. :D
I do it occasionally. Just to see "what's changed" in iOS. iPhones are great phones. They just lack true multitasking abilities like screen split for two apps at once. Important for me cause I like to reconcile with my banking and budgeting app
@krskadave There are iPhones in the family and I admire them and the whole iOS but there're a few things I can tell in 2 days, that I couldn't get used to. The keyboard is the major one. I use a full Hungarian layout in Gboard. Special characters do exist but not the layout.
@@NegyedMisi Gboard can replace the iPhone keyboard though.
Ask your carer to assist.
@@NegyedMisi hahaha! It's tough.
I hope you will review the new Mac mini.
I tried iPhone 15 Max for few days, took from a friend, and went back to Android ... OnePlus 12 being my daily device for past 5-6 months.
I was surprised how awful it was going from a 6s to se2. Since then, I've had a few pixels. Backup and restore with pixel phones is second to none.
I'm a person who prioritizes freedom, it all started from Android Enclair, then Android introduced Root and that loyalty remains until now, used to have Iphone 4s and Iphone 10 Max, solid in terms of smoothness, but due to many limitations, that's what made me getting bored quickly using the IOS system, that doesn't mean I hate it, but my heart rejects it due to the desire for freedom as a Power User.
Apps passwords get transferred too ?
When switching to Google Pixel, your messages don't get moved over and Google doesn't seem to know how to help out with this issue. Unfortunately that was a pretty deal breaker for myself.
Very good video Spurt
is it 1st April already? :D
I didn't get any word that this man said. But thank you
Brother where do you get ur wallpapers
I have moved to android after been on apple since the iPhone 3G. Only thing I struggle with is the photo albums on iPhone are easy to deal with. I haven’t found a way to recreate this in google photos. Have a work around using Samsung gallery but feel I’m stuck using Samsung phones now.
What game is launched at 2:00?
Hahahaha!!! Ditch that iPhone brick! I did that an age ago and I'm not looking back! S24U to ZF6 and now the phenomenal OnePlus Open!
is there a way to put the apple calendar on to an android, as my wife and i share a calender and she has iPhone and MacBook
Bro pls review the Xiaomi 15 Pro
DONE! 😊
What android phone u switched to?
TECNO Phantom V-fold. 📱

I’m a late comer to your channel ~ amazin and useful. I’ve just subscribed and loked
Cool thumbnail 😮
Very useful thanks spurt. Like you knew I’d just bought an Android phone. Now I need help to actually use the Samsung. Any advice?
Switching to oneplus 13 from iPhone 12 is this my good decision?
An old mage of mine used to work in the old carphone warehouse and we used to joke about how sad it was to own an iPhone 🤪 + how he advised people onto android!
So the Pixel5a stopped getting updates this week. That's barely three years of updates. My iPhone has had more than double that, and still going strong. Tell me again now Android is better when its core company, Google, won't even support their own kit.
2:00 what do you see?
Was that intro really necessary 😂
Was a die-hard android user for years, tried an iPhone, actually quite liked it but had the opportunity to switch to a pixel once again and I'm happy to be back but I must say iPhones really are leaps ahead in certain instances
Went from an iPhone 16 Pro Max to Pixel 9 Pro Fold. Not missing anything
Left the Apple prison with my galaxy fold 6, and i am here for life now
Having a wire makes it very easy, you don't need to backup anything to google
The first step is to find a device you like the look of. Currently there is no hardware I like that runs Android, as I prefer the smaller form factor of the SE / Mini. I don’t have any ecosystem ‘holding me back’, just the phone. There are no good similar sized Android phones with good software support.
You can get a new SE at a steep discount if you don’t get it specifically from the Apple website (who does that anyways?). The internals of the 2022 SE are a bit overkill though for such a small phone.
Get the Asus zenphone 10 or the pixel 9/8 depending on your budget
pixel 8a? ???
I guarantee you're a boomer - I sell phones for a living and the small phone lovers are exclusively 40+ year olds
@@FromUsToAshes im 20 years old. Just need my phone to fit and be mostly useable in one hand. :^)
Both of those are around the size of a standard iPhone, they are not small.
Each to their own. I have an iPhone as a personal phone and a midrange android as a work phone. I would chose the iPhone any day, but respect that android is more customisable, loads more choice and making apps etc is easier.
Do top 10 android phoens so far, from each range
Android and especially Samsung has come along way with seamless integration. I agree apps need to work better especially content creation type apps.. but I don't do that. I just need to get Microsoft office 365 and I'm pretty sure my Samsung tablet will work like a lap top
