The original iPhone released in 2007 was hailed as revolutionary in a world where BlackBerry, Palm, and Microsoft Windows Phone reigned king. Google was working on a competitor to these platforms with the Android team they purchased in 2005. After the iPhone unveiling, Google changed course and the T-Mobile HTC Dream was launched in 2008. How did the two compare and which one was better? iPhone vs Android.
And that friends is how you do a comparison video, not just doing speed tests and calling it a day.

The Steve Ballmer clip never gets old, it's still so funny to watch.
He is a literal walking meme
Developers developers developers
yeah the more I watch that clip the more he sounded dumb
True
Fazal Fariz what a visionary... NOT haha
To be fair, I laughed at the iPhone and thought it was a stupid idea that wouldn't go anywhere.
This is why I do not work as a financial investor :-P
I remember when I first heard of the iPhone, I blurted "How can one use that capacitive screen without stylus? Those teeny tiny keyboard would be a nightmare to type." Well and here we are over a decade later typing away on a full-touch keyboard. Never been so wrong.
I remember when it first came and was like wow thats so expensive for what it is. I’ve since had an iPhone since the 3GS lol
@@STARSKY1313 3gs was my first iphone. Got the 64gb version with a wireless charging case. I thought I was a tech god or something lol
Edit: there was never a 64gb 3gs, I probably had the 32gb.
Saw one in high school. Thought the same.

Palm didn't deserve to die. It only slightly eases my heart, that LG still uses webOS in their amazing smart TVs, so Palm's legacy isn't completely gone.
WebOs was ahead of its time. The issue wasn't the phones but developer support.
yeah - back in the day the Palm Pre was a serious competitor to the the iPhone.
Then the HTC Desire arrived and the rest was history
webOS is amazing tbh
Anybody remembers Palm OS from before they got bought by HP?

@dark side I can say Samsung is what made android successful and this is coming from someone that uses both Samsung and Apple products. I went from a Samsung galaxy A10e to upgrading to an IPhone SE 2nd gen and can say my Samsung phone was a great phone!
@@FORTRESS_9 yes, i once used a samsung galaxy note 3 and it was pretty good!
"iOS made Android better, Android made iOS better" That sir is so true! We have all benefited from Apple and Google going after each other for so long. Keep up the fight! As long as both companies keep innovating and pushing the boundries of what our little super computers do, then we all win in the end. Rock on Android, Rock on Apple!

No, because what if you want to take a photo of something tall.
With the iPhone, good quality panorama. With many Androids, trash quality panorama. So yeah vertical is a great option

@@CoffeeTheDragon Sometimes, people want decent enough photos without carrying a dedicated camera. Also, you need to carry a bunch of lenses to do wide angle/regular/telephoto. Costs and bulk add up.

Steve Balmer: _LOL! A phone without physical keyboard_
Steve Jobs: _I'm about to end this man's whole career_
And he did 😂😂😂😂
The problem was that at the time, nobody except Steve Jobs saw the empty market. Smartphones were thought of as "manager phones". And obviously these phones were highly geared towards productivity, rather than instant information access and exchange, and media consumption. Carriers didn't think that 20 years down the line, internet would be their most demanded service. We would not have unlimited LTE today were it not for the iPhone.
Balmer has always been so backward, in 2008 said that nobody would ever buy a notebook like the Macbook Air 'cause lack of cd drive and features, for years now we have the ultrabook branch in the pc industry...
it is impressive how many times Steve Balmer was wrong during his career.
Bruhh😂😂😂😂
When he said, “I love them both for their own strengths”. I immediately subscribed.
Austin Pelayo cringe, thats like being a centrist.

Your name just adds way more to your comment
Dude stop thats not cool even though USD is more valuable than AUD, I did some mathematics and currency conversion and here in Australia, it costs more to buy an Apple product even in USD because of shipping. You learn something new every day.
I remember when the first iPhone was announced... it was during a time i was debating to upgrade to a BlackBerry Pearl or a sidekick. I upgraded to the iPhone and yes it was missing a bunch of features but but everyone including me was just fascinated with the touch screen and full browser. Till this day i use an iPhone I’m on iPhone XS Max and excited for iOS 14. I do believe that both Apple and Google made each other better.
Anthony Vallejo I agree iPhone is great
Lanzz De Guzman same im on an iPhone 11, and people saying that iPhones are too expensive, the 11 pro max is around 1500$ and the s20 ultra is 1600$ so this year the iPhone is more affordable, or you can get the regular 11 which is just 700$ so in conclusion iPhones are superior
XD money spent horribly.And you just praised 2 of the worst companies ever.
NeverMore okay go use ur one plus and upgrade for 600$ next year or if your lucky 2 years
I hope you are not reasoning like that in your everyday life

Whats funny is all the features from the original android OS he begged for iOS to adopt after almost 15 years, literally were adopted to iOS two days after this video was uploaded.
Eh- default apps on iOS is only for 2 apps. And for the web browser, Chrome and Firefox on iOS is really Safari engine with a different skin. You have to use the safari web kit as a browser developer on iOS. So no extensions that make chrome and Firefox what it is.
Wake me up when you can set EVERY app as a default app: Google Maps as default maps app, VLC as default video player app, etc etc. Being happy you can only set 1.5 apps as default apps makes me wonder how much you really know about technology. But then again apple is a service company. They make money by selling you services so it's in their financial best interest to make sure you're only using their services.

There still isn’t consistent design in Google apps.

There's also tons of apps that if they detect dark mode will just invert all the colors, making some parts of the app unusable

I think someone has ported android 10 or 11 to the Optimus Prime
Android user all my life. I still love and have huge respect for the first iPhone. Its basically responsible for phones as we know them, even androids, whether you like it or not.
True. If it hadn't been for the iphone
The Android phones would have been just a better version of BlackBerry and windows mobile OS
You are the Android Users I respect, you understand Apple, and knows facts
@Seven V Truth. It's the software, especially 3rd party software that ever made these devices worthwhile. That's why the phone OSes by Microsoft were dumpster fires and why Linux is so far behind Windows in market share.
Apple just carried itself to the 3G on sheer hype and only then did it start to be a phone that was actually one someone could justify buying.

If Android could actually roll out OS updates worth a crap, it'd be a much better OS than iOS, in my opinion.
@@CubeRazn true! Man. I am a die-hard Android user,but not a fanatic.
iPhone literally has the most powerful mobile processor and runs on 1/3rd the RAM of Android phones.
Yeah! Android is like a beta version for users and apple delivers the final version.But apple should keep innovating for Android to push further ahead and make cheaper alternatives that can result in technology at the hands of larger demography. Been an Android user since Galaxy S , that's a decade now.
"I'm glad contracts are gone."
Contracts are gone? 👀 At least, not in Canada, I'm on a 2 year contract for my iPhone X...
I think he meant that you're no longer *required* to get a contract to even buy an iPhone. These days you can get one on contract, or just pay the money and buy it out-right.
That’s if you buy it from a cellular company or decide to make payments to Apple if you were unable to pay it in full the day of purchase.

You incorrectly stated that the original iPhone had to have the “globe” wallpaper lock screen and that it couldn’t be changed. It could, and you can even see the setting for it in the video at 4:56. I believe they also demoed it on stage during the reveal.

"This is a day..." - Steve Jobs
Both operating systems are pretty stable nowadays, but I do remember the old days where iOS wasn't very customizable and basic, but with Android I was constantly seeing a barely stable device ([App] is not responding. [App] has stopped unexpectedly. Etc. Android 4 and before was just...) Around that period, the most stable "Android" device I've ever owned was the first generation Kindle Fire. I almost never saw an unresponsive message or crash message. For what it was, it was very well-behaved, very well debugged.
Nowadays, they're both great. Although, I tend to stick with Apple, mainly in the used market, not just for the OS, but because they have a pretty seamless ecosystem.

What a nice and impartial look on these two giants.
I remember clearly: I was anti everything Apple. The day the iPhone came out I went into an Apple Store to ridicule the iPhone to the salespeople.... I played with it for 15 minutes, trying to lock it up, or find some flaw, and then I was sold! I told the salesman: “Do you still have any in stock?? Get me one with the most memory you have, NOW.” And I never regretted my decision. I replaced a GPS, a portable internet modem, printed maps, a digital camera, a mini CD player, a Walkman, chargers for all of those, and the list goes on and on and on...
thats depressing
@@LlamaCraft innit
@@LlamaCraft It's honestly refreshing to see someone swallow their pride and admit they almost made a huge mistake.
I saw the first iPhone at a party, a neighbor had it. I wanted to buy one the following Monday, but after playing around with it a bit I canceled my plans. No video (even my dumb phone at that time could shoot video), the lack of UMTS support (that's why the pushed the 3g model to replace the first one so fast) which was essential for the coming years, hell, the inability to change even the wallpaper - it was a joke. So I kept my brick phone, waited a little longer, and got an android a year later or so. And even today, working with a company which provides Apple or brick phones as work phones, I choose Bricks. Long lasting batteries is all I need in a workphone, it compliments my oneplus 7t pro mclaren which I use as privat phone perfectly. So there's a perfect phone for everybody, I guess 😉
I sort of waited until the 3G, and promptly jailbroke it. I HAD to have tethering, what a dream to be able to use my MacBook Pro online anywhere. See, the service providers back then held back on tethering, even as they charged by the megabyte. They could have made more money, but obviously didn’t want to. A phone was for talking, not networking, right? Well, several iterations of iOS later, and huge insights from carriers, I now have three devices with 4G access, and a portable 4G router. iPad took over from the MBP, building on the success of touch and all-screen - The first iPhone. All that in (for me) 12 years or so. And yes, iOS absolutely needs Android to push them both forward. Great video! 😊
The phone that made me gasp before the Iphone is a Sony Ericson. It was a full touch screen ,was super fast comparably at the time , it had a keyboard that slid out. I loved it so much more than the Iphone 1.
My first real smartphone was the Xperia X10 mini! Then the "original" X10, and after the Pro, with the keyboard.
Then switched to Nexus/Pixels.

I still remember comparing the iPhone and HTC dream back in 2008. I opted for Android and haven't looked back. It's just a damn shame that HTC have fallen so hard, they used to be THE android phone manufacturer.
My first second and third phones were android and I've decided to change and go for iphone for the first time! Wish me luck. 🍎❤🤖
You made the wrong choice buddy. I was on Android for years (Samsung flagships), switched to iPhone and haven’t looked back. I am not saying Android doesn’t have some features over Apple, but the overall experience of using an iPhone for me is far better. Apps are a lot more optimised for iPhone, was a major quality of life improvement when I realised hang on, you shouldn’t expect glitches. Plus, Apple keeps your data and privacy more secure than Google ever would, it just feels more consumer friendly.
A friend of mine who was always using huaweis and Xiaomis switched last year to the iPhone and he also much prefers it, got him self AirPod pro gen 2s and is extremely happy with the set up, said he’s sticking with Apple from now on. Everything just feels more premium and tailored. Not as many customisation options but that’s not a problem for the majority of people.
Most Android fan boys have never actually used an iPhone for at least a few weeks yet will slander Apple customers. Experience the product properly and find out what you are missing and see why most your favourite tech UA-camrs run an iPhone as their main/personal

@@jacobrobins8831 I don't think most Android fans have a problem with iOS as much as they just far prefer the flexibility of Android. More devices to choose from, and customization etc.. it's the smugness of Apple fanboys that really turns Android fanboys off from considering iOS..
@@bimmer8602 I have to admit pixel fanboys get on my nerves too. However Gcam is the truth. So awesome that it will run on other Android phones also.
At least now I know why my essential ph1 died the day after rubin's divorce lol
6:27 That wasn’t the only option. There were more wallpapers in settings.
Plus, you could make any image in your Photos app the wallpaper. Steve even demoed this on stage. smh
Flat Earthers nightmare 😆
“Palm didn’t deserve to die” Absolutely!! I hated when WebOS lost. One of my first smartphones was Motorola Q running Windows Mobile, but I fondly remember using my Palm Pre, HTC G1, and the second gen iPhone. I love both Android and iOS, but lately Android has me more excited with their folding devices.
Is this the same webos that lg tvs use?
WebOS still exists to this day, in LG's TVs.
Yes, it still available on TVs, but I was referring to when it was on Palm's smartphones, like the Pre.
I feel the say way about Windows Mobile. Microsoft didn't do enough and thought that it's name would carry it.
My first phone was the iPhone 3gs when I was in middle school. Ironically, I still have that ancient device around here somewhere, it might be lost who knows. It was good for the time being, but I was a kid back then and didn't care about specs. Now I use an iPhone XR.
Today i use a 4s :p
Consider android for your next device
Please
My deepest condolences....horrible way to loose money :(
Just a Hacker Can you tell me what android does better than iPhone, I have an iPhone 11 and i just want to know if android is better.
@@z-form2559 android is more customisable (you can change the icons, add sounds when you open an app, change an app's name)
Android phones tend to have better hardware (a better battery, higher refresh rate screen, faster charging, under screen fingerprint sensor, NFC)
android is more open (I can run Windows xp on my android phone, I can play a screen in screen video, I can charge someone else's phone with my phone wirelessly)
Android phones tend to have better camera futures (100x zoom, 7680 fps slow mo, better night shots, 51200 iso, 8k video recording)
Edit: I deleted a little bit because it's too long
I loved this! I still remember that first iPhone. I had just graduated from college that year. I used the iPhone up until the iPhone 4, then I switched over to the Galaxy Nexus. Now I'm using a Pixel 4 XL, but my Galaxy S21 Ultra is on its way to me.
You should review the Blackberry Storm. Black Berry's first response to the iphone. It had a unique screen that clicked down like a bottun, when you pressed it
If this is true, I want a review. Sounds like a cool quirky device.
My dad had it. It was great, but it became really inconvenient afterwards. If the button-like mechanism got damaged, the whole screen became unresponsive and you had to change it completely. Great phone with amazing camera, the only complaint we had was the screen.
"Originally Designed as Smart Camera System" - Basically what it is today 😂😂
No, its primary purpose is to make phone calls.
And, iOS was originally designed as a mp3 player OS...
@Tong Zou Actually, most people use it for that purpose.
@Tong Zou But its primary purpose is still to make phone calls. That's why it's called "phone".
@Tong Zou Yes, but most people are buying phones because they can make phone calls - that's why they have a phone with them all the time. I don't carry my phone with me all the time to make pictures of my lunch, but to be able to make and receive phone calls.
Back in the days Android companys gave people the same tech and just update it... but now they gave us something we dont even know we needed.
Having a modern smartphone with an included keyboard and trackpad would be actually really awesome
companies been doing it each several years, Samsung and blackberry to name the few, and they failed
13:02 sounds like a good thing to me. Bring that back. I'm tired of vertical videos and pictures.
I telling to add a side mouse like scroll to the side with user controllable setting it would make web navigation easy & music scrolling too
sorry bro my windows tablet is killing my auto vibe,it was gonna crash but this is how it gets

He even sounds a bit like doug.....
THANK YOU for the shout out to Palm! I was a Treo user, an early smartphone adopter. I had a Palm Pre, and wonder what would have become of WebOS if Palm hadn't died a slow death.
My buddy had a Palm Pre for a bit. It was cool until I got the Droid X and that made the Pre feel ancient...
The iPhone literally changed the world, we wouldn't have Uber, Instagram, basically nothing that needs a smartphone to work. It's as revolutionary as steam machines back then.
I agree
I like the end part!

I remember wanting the first iPhone so bad, then I got my first iPhone in 2010 the 3GS best thing I ever owned, had it for 3 years! Then I got the iPhone 5s in 2013. Owned that until 2018! Gave the 3GS to my mum she used it until last year. Then the speaker/mic gave out. So she got my dad's old 3gS from 2009, he bought used. Just shows how good these iPhones are! My dad now uses 5s I gave it him in December 2018 and he's still using it today. Given the battery don't last as long as it used to but he still using it.
I've moved on to the oneplus 6t back in December 2018! Great phone. Nice camera, big screen. Really fast 8gb ram. Might move back. But honestly it's a great phone and for half what a new iPhone would cost! Wow now that's good value 👌 decided to get the oneplus after many UA-cam reviews suggested it was best phone of that year and it's got flagship specs for a good price.
Apple have there new iPhones sure. But around £1000 too much for a phone. The new iPhone Se looks promising around the price there phones used to be. Looking like might be a worthy buy.
I have a nintendo dsi from 2009 that still works and its 11 years old
@@alcabone1126 basically the same as a phone if you think about it
Iphone SE comes with 1800 mAh battery lol

wait hold on there buddy, your mom was using an iphone 3gs all the way up until 2019?????
"That's a joke. That's a Joke." - Android users hunting him down.
Android:😠😡
Thank you for the awesome look back ! Im currently using an android and an iPhone I have a Motorola Razr 5G and an iPhone 12 Pro
BEST take ever for phone os. wish that everyone could have this perspective and not just blindly hate.
11:50 Oh look, Apple announced literally all of these features at WWDC today!
Welcome to Android Jellybean
Beans And Burgers And Android is finally getting an airdrop equivalent. Welcome to 2011.
@@featel1 my understanding is that iOS did not have that feature until iOS 7 in 2013. But Android 4.0 (from 2011) had an Airdrop like feature in the form of Android Beam.
@@featel1 NFC, Wi-Fi Direct, and Android Beam: Am I a joke to you?
Beans And Burgers No it was definitely 2011 dude, I checked before posting. And I had a nexus 4, not even comparable tech honestly.
I remember iPhone 1 being launched and refusing to buy one because it was so ridiculous there was no copy and paste so I stuck with my HTC till. IPhone 3.
Snazzy labs: complains about features not on iPhone.
iOS 14 beta: I’m about to end this mans whole career.
I know it should’ve been sooner but I find this quite funny
The reason why Microsoft,Blackberry and other companies failed today is because of the fact that they didn’t take the iPhone seriously.God knows where Microsoft could be today if CEO thought twice before making fun of the iPhone
Lmao Andy Rubin
I bought an essential phone when they went on deep discount.
I will never forget when my friend bought the brand new g1. I'm a computer programmer so he asked me how to figure out how to put a movie on his android.
From that moment on, I was sold on Android. I put an entire movie on his phone.
The iPhone couldn't even support video 😆.
HTC g1 or Nokia. Was movie 3gp format ?
@@rustymixer2886 This was ages ago. I don't remember. HTC.

Now just a play sign.🤓😎
no one, cause we are a lot younger.
@@jackieburkhart3268 "no one" look again
14:35 Palm, WebOS and MeeGo didn't deserve to die :(
“E-Mail machine” how far we have come lol.
You might mention that the 2nd version of this phone, the T-mobile G2 (aka HTC Desire Z) basically blew away the iPhone for years as well as every other Android phone when it was released in 2010. 😮
This is the phone that got me into rooting, modding and flashing roms. I’ll never forget the process of rooting it using a terminal on the phone typing with the keyboard. Or the time that I was running a beta version of the HTC sense ui before it came out with the droid eris
This phone was heaven for me, a true customization paradise, so many roms, so many ways to improve battery and other software quirks
