Has Samsung Surpassed Apple's Ecosystem? 

I'd say they did the best job among other androids, but still the OS and delay needs to get better on the watch for example and the connection time on buds 2 pro isnt as fast as well. I'm a huge samsung fan and user, but I'll admit these flaws. But sound wise buds 2 pro blows apple earbuds out of the water!

I feel like the Apple has the better ecosystem. With that being said though, Samsung comes quite close and even excels in some areas. Impressive given the fractured nature of Android and that Samsung isn't the creator of Android.

No winner as such, they cater for different tastes and needs. After being an Apple consumer for a number of years, the Samsung ecosystem is now sort of where I have settled: Samsung phone*, the Galaxy Watch Active 2 and the Buds2 Pro. *I've since switched to a Google Pixel phone and have lost some functionality on the watch, not a big deal but may influence my next phone upgrade early next year. As far as laptop elements, for me, pretty much irrelevant. I can share files easily enough between phone and Windows devices. As for Dex, tried it purely out of curiosity but could not see the value or use case. I have a lightweight laptop that meets all my needs home and away.

@@Lingkxs.83 I don't care.. from america

I don't, and won't touch iMessage (unless I'm forced to by apple when I'm trying to sms an iPhone user) and I haven't once used Facetime. iPhones are just perfect, they're the secure little box that I want from a phone. It does all the phone things I need, and it does them well. I only use my phone for RU-vid streaming; messaging on Instagram, Viber, WhatsApp, Signal, SMS and Discord; calling using the built in phone app; taking videos and photographs; and rarely, VERY RARELY, play some small, non-intensive mobile game. iPhones (SE excluded) just do that for me, performance-per-dollar-wise they are the very best. The cameras obliterate anything else when entering the $250+ range, and the video-quality-per-dollar is the very best at any price point of used, new, or refurbished phones. The taptic engine is incredible, the UI is super streamlined (google lens on the lock screen is a life changer for me!) and I get industry leading software support. 10 years from the date of release, 7 of which are full iOS versions is bonkers. The thing that rubs me the wrong way is how emoji support gets dropped for Android users extremely fast. It's literally a font, that should be an app you update, not an operating system.

I use Dex all the time. Also, most of my international contacts use WhatsApp for contacting. iOS offers less flexibility than Samsung and other Android based phones.

@magggas0 google ecosystem exists but not Samsung’s when samsung products clearly communicate much better with each other?

@@magggas0 I think you should go back and learn about what these ecosystems are because you seem to think that just because they're not the same, one of those isn't an ecosystem. That's an apple groupie talking point that has no hold on reality.

@magggas0 I don't know what's your understanding of the word "ecosystem" but its clearly incorrect. Just because devices have different operating system, it doesn't mean that they can't be a part of the same ecosystem. Eventhough, IPhones and Macs are from the same company, IOS is very different from MacOS. They're made by two distintive development teams but they still manage them to communicate with each other just like what samsung did with their version of android and their version of windows.

​@magggas0 yep, new account definitely was correct! it's weird you have no real arguments

i wish google could have done this years early.. their ecosystem so far still far behind, and some devices like the earbuds suck :p

@@twowheelsandcroissant So true, I love the samsung ecosystem, but I really don't enjoy samsung products, id much rather have a Pixel + Pixel Watch + Pixel tab than samsung alternatives, but the google ecosystem just sucks, and everything they make that isn't the pixel phone, is just subpar. Even their software isn't even the best, so many people joke on apple for being late to the party when adding features, well that's because they haven't seen how late google is to adding stuff to stock android. i am so glad google seems to actually be committing to their hardware for once though! I think it's just a matter of time until google's offerings get on par to samsung or apple, maybe even better! (hopefully)

It is a good Marketing strategy Deborah, I actually left Apple for Samsung the end of last year though, changed everything I owned on that ecosystem to Samsung's. Both have their plus points, however I am getting more benefits with the Samsung ecosystem for work especially and feel like my own person. If anyone is thinking of changing over, think of the benefits and Why you are, then just go for it. You won't regret it once you get used to the change which is pretty quick, both companies are at the top of their game. Im S22 Ultra, Tab S8 Ultra and earbuds Pro, no problems at all and enjoy the ecosystem for sure. Thanks. SEAN.

@@twowheelsandcroissant Google is satanic 😈 so they deserve it

​@@liamsz after now owning a Pixel Device, god are they far behind. Not only do they intensionally block HDMI signal out of the port so you can't even use an extended monitor, they also suck at wireless screensharing. I still can't believe that Pixel Devices only support Chromecast, no Miracast or anything similar. I also experience bugs each day on the device, something uncommon on my older, way cheaper devices.

I think I will eventually do that lol, having a MacBook and iPad as a person who will work with Adobe programs and needing them on the go. But for phones, I'm looking for a refurbished samsung s20 or s21

@@chargedx5768 lol. I've been a windows user since 2000s and trust me, there are just some features in Mac that makes tasks more efficient like their version of multi-touch gestures. Windows have this but you have to really dig deep into the settings to configure it into your liking, and guess what, thats not as user-friendly as you might think.

Boi you’re rich

I can relate to your experience 😊 I also have both ecosystems in my life. I use MacMini-MacAir-iPad for work because they work seamlessly together and macOS is more intuitive than windows 👍 But for my personal device, I switched to Samsung S22 Ultra last year after 8 years with iPhone with Samsung Fit 2 and Sony Headphones cuz I don't like wearing a smartwatch all the time and dislike Earbuds as well. I love how I can customize my phone to suit my preferences and needs 🙌 I think both ecosystems have their strengths and weaknesses, and I use them for different purposes - Apple for work and Samsung + Sony for leisure 🍎🌠

This is key

Yes, with samsung you arent tied to one brand, but with apple you are.

Yes, they have 57% of the US market but only 27% of the world. And Apple's "greatness" depends upon, virtually, everything being Apple.

So why does Apple still sell more units then?

​@David Henderson because that 27% is divided between 5 phones pretty much, whilst samsung alone sells a lot more different models, as well as all the other Android phones and phone makers, making apples share the largest, even tho Android is larger

@@CoachD77 They don't. In fact, recent numbers say Samsung has surpassed them. They may sell a lot of their brand. but not even close to Android, as a whole. Contrary to popular belief, the US is not the world.

@@CoachD77 if they told you that then they lied to you, Apple is only famous in USA, and Samsung it's worldwide, even most billionaire like Billgate, Jeff Bezos and Mark Z use Samsung devices.

I don't know, I really like my Galaxy Watch 5 Pro compared to the Apple Watch 8.

"the customer suffers the most" Working as intended. This way companies can up the prices of their hardware so that you can't get the same experience with mismatched tech. Yes you have a choice of what you can buy and use but if you want the best possible experience, of course companies are going to want you to buy their products exclusively. They aren't your friend

I've heard they are working on a smart ring if so and if proven accurate would give the oura ring a really tough time and give the apple watch a run for its money. Because then everyone with a Galaxy watch wouldn't have to be concerned with the health tracking or battery life of the watch they can use it as a standalone smart watch if they want. Also I agree I think Samsung has caught up considerably!

Samsung watch is much better T^T what r u even saying, it has way better battery life and has extra features like b.f.p. which i find useful atleast

That's exactly why they do it. Big companies don't care how much money you spend, the more products they force you to buy, the better.

Why Samsung specifically? Why not literally any other Android manufacturer?

@@vegcharli hi, I think I addressed that in the above. I started using Samsung in 2011, I use Dex a decent amount, and additionally I do like the IoT with my other Samsung devices, especially my TVs. It's helpful that I can easily connect or have a remote control on my phone without having to download any additional app or connection.

@@capatel It baffles me how the amazing integration with Samsung TVs are rarely talked about. Being able to wirelessly use Dex on my Samsung TV allows me to quickly do work or stream a movie to the external speakers connected to the TV.

@@vivek_v Wireless Dex works on my fairly old LG TV as well. I just run the screen sharing app on the TV and my Samsung phone picks it up.

💯

Cap google is free apple sale more Germany in the top ten apple users

You can get the same features in samsung wallet.

Bro I live in the Netherlands and when I heard my cousin frm the US complain about the text bubbles I was so confused. And it surprised me how kids got bullied for having the latest androids when the bully's phone is a 4 yr old iphone with a ton cracks lol

I too have all these exact same device 😅

I have Samsung tab 7+. The app experiences are terrible.

Integration is awful. Especially with the phone/tablet. Apple nailed that. Smartthings needs alot of work, especially with integration of hue etcetera. The washer and dryer work well.

Oh yeah! You've hit the nail on the head! Dex is my salvation. This is the function thanks to which you forget about the access point if you want to distribute the Internet to a laptop. This function saves literally every day

By the way, I've found that you can also share your connection with a USB cable

The more I hear about Android features the more I realized that they all seem to revolve around bypassing some restriction, like torrents and cracked apps lol

​@@ILoveGrilledCheeseyeah far better than apple walled garden

Oh, in US you have company with normal data and hotspot data separated? In Italy I don't know of any company that has hotspot data separate from the normal data, but with a company (Vodafone, which also exist in UK and I absolutely hate) you can only use the Hotspot with those who own that same company... it’s a stupid thing.

The M1/M2 chips are literally just the A14/A15 with more cores, a wider memory bus and special accelerators. Here is my ultimate iPhone: • consolidated iOS/macOS operating system • baseline M-series chip on the backside of the motherboard • vapour chamber cooling on the backside of the motherboard • MagSafe thermoelectric phone cooler when doing heavier tasks in desktop mode/Mac mode • at least 16GB of RAM (with larger options available, and some Android phones had/have this much RAM) • a Thunderbolt 4 or 5 port with multi display output and external GPU/eGPU support (eGPU would handle display output directly when in use) • compact, portable and efficient eGPU based on the same architecture as the A/M-series chips, able to swap into a lapdock But this isn't likely to happen. Apple wants to sell you an iPhone and a Mac. I'm using Samsung DeX on my S23 Ultra with 12GB of RAM.

Yea but then you wouldnt need to buy a mac and apple doesnt like that

The main reason Apple would never do this is that they actually want you to buy a second and third device. Not a joke, for Apple profit comes first, it would eat into their iPad sales and even MacBook. There is nothing technically stopping them from launching this tomorrow if they like.

Off topic, but don't use the flip cover with the S23 Ultra. The pressure points causes oleophobic paint go off soon.

Can you please let me know why would you have problem with Excel in Tab S7+? Would you have the same problem in Tab 9 ultra? Thank you very much!

I would not miss editing on windows lol, keeps crashing on me although you can install 3rd party software easily on windows, i dont have regrets switching its like the opposite of Macs it sucks at gaming other than productivity.

Definitely agree, the apple tv is criminally underrated

Hi, so if I already have apple + in my tv, what does the apple tv device actually do? And how do I forexample get dolby atmos through my airpods is it through netflix or apples own streaming service?

@@sivur Think of the Apple TV as a Roku box, if you’re familiar with those. The Apple TV is essentially a Roku that just runs Apple’s tvOS. You would connect the AirPods through Bluetooth on the Apple TV itself, then they will work with every app you have. Netflix, RU-vid, Apple TV+, and everything else. The TV/TV+ naming scheme is very confusing, but Apple TV+ is a video subscription service similar to Netflix, and the Apple TV is a device similar to a Roku. Hope this helps!

Lol same happened to me. I was pulling out my phone to use samsung pay and the cashier was saying we don't have apple pay here, only credit card is acceptable. I just smiled and proceeded with the samsung pay anyway. She was so shocked when the payment was accepted. 😂

​@@matthewskullblood9778 it works the same way as cards with a nfc chip in the phone

@@matthewskullblood9778 QR payment through G-Pay/Dex/PayPal, etc.

Of course you have trouble sending messages because iphones only play nice with iphones. There lies the true problem with apple. apple did well brain washing their users into thinking simplicity = better features. There is nothing special about imessages or air drop. Samsung and any another modern phone with a skin for Android can do this, and it can do it with any Android despite what brand of phone it is. A Samsung phone will play nice with a Pixel phone. Let's see an iphone do that. But hey, what do Samsung users and other Android users know. Our phones fold in half, can be customized in countless ways, Samsung flagships can almost replace a laptop with Dex, no problem working with Windows and countless other applications, are not dependent on facetime for a simple video chat...I think I'll stop there.

@@matts1978 good point but apple have a more proven efficiency and longevity features. Samsung was great yes, but do you really think goldable phones will last 5-7 years? Apple I think is braver because they are not only fighting agains the android system, but with windows too. Ask Samsung to create their own Os and evosystem and lets see if people will still buy them.

​@@darwinlaureles u know why they can't do that ask huawei

@@matts1978 You never used an iPhone and it shows, do you seriously think iPhone users can ONLY use iMessage and FaceTime??? lmfao, there is something special about iMessage and AirDrop, they're built in natively to the system, and have been for essentially a decade now, so everyone with an apple device knows how to and can just use it, meanwhile most people who use android doesn't even know nearby share is a thing. Good luck making your Windows computer a samba/SMB server or turning on SSH in less than 4 clicks. Both platforms are great, but you're clearly ignorant to that, meanwhile assuming that anyone using a different device than you IS ignorant.

@@darwinlaureles Honestly, if samsung actually did make their own OS with their own kernel it would probably be amazing, samsung is doing great with their ecosystem considering they are dependent on Microsoft and Google who are essentially holding them back.

Except it is kind of a gimmick because how many people actually have any need for it. It’s an awesome feature but it seems almost overboard.

@@ganymedehedgehog371 Except for the Screen Sharing feature, I use almost every feature of the Dex. I have an S22 Ultra and it works fluently with my Samsung book 2 pro. From File Sharing to pasting an already copied link in the handset in the Laptop, it does almost everything very smoothly. Let me guess, you use Iphone?

Sometimes windows is annoying. For example. It takes time until the galery on my phone and the galery on the other phone synchronisize because it first sync With onedrive and then onedrive must sync and then onedrive must sync with the Other galery. There are so many steps to do in a sync. You dont need to Do those things yourself but for example in ios it sync only with icloud. Thats it. And thats makes it a fast and seamless ecosystem. I think samsung did this because they want to give us the option to sync the Photos on the galaxy book too. Windows must work harder to make the ecosystem more seamless or samsung must create their own windows

​@@enes-malikberber8206 linux for the w

Great answer and non judgemental atitude, I have had both Eco-systems and I am running Samsung at present. S22 Ultra, Tab S8 Ultra, earbuds PRO and watch 4, I am really liking them as I have only been with samsung since November 22 through work. It's what you like at that time and suits your lifestyle- work ethics, both have their pro's and cons. Dex, Microsoft are better to use than the Apple products and quicker, I would say the security is equal in my opinion but I do think Apple Pay seems better than the Google Pay I am using at present. Sometimes, the card machines are hit & miss and I need to get my card out, never had this with Apple products. Obviously, facetime is fantastic with iphone's or ipad's it's harder to get people who are in the apple system to use Google Duo but if they do, it works well. Me Personally at present, I am enjoying the switch to Samsung and how it's working for me, cannot knock Apple though as they do a great job for their customers, I enjoyed their ecosystem when using it. Family are happy, as the got all of my Apple products as upgrades.

Was just wondering, do you not get annoyed/disappointed at times when you can’t connect your phone to your iPad easily? Cause I have the same iPad and I’m still in the dilemma of choosing between iPhone 14 and S23.I feel like s23 is better but still wanting to try the whole “apple ecosystem”

@@ranamohamed9797 Apple ecosystem is overrated, only good feature really is Airdrop

OK, so what does not choosing to download Google Duo have to do with paying a grand for an iPhone?

​@@housepianist Apple users: Instead of me downloading a free quality app in seconds, I would rather you spend a thousand dollars so you can call me on the app I already have.

I am an iphone user, but I'm a Samsung user too. I actually love Google Duo.

Duo works with all phones. facetime just works with iphones. That is apples biggest problem. And my God facetime users, put your ridiculous looking airpods on when talking in public. Nobody wants to hear your conversation.

@@DomitionX Well, it’s extremely unlikely anyone would spend a thousand dollars on a iPhone just to have an app that’s already part of the software. If someone wants to download Duo (or any app for that matter), that's what will happen regardless of the price of the phone. Sorry but your comment makes zero sense. However, I'll acknowledge that perhaps you were infusing your comment with a slice of humor. Haha. Ok, we're all good......I guess. 🤷‍♂️

Hopefully you arent pointing at samsung for smaller tech companies. Cause then i have a lot to say

Customization is good to a point. It's really cool when you're like 15 years old and you're testing different ROMs, kernels and launchers every week. I used to be like that when I got my first smartphone, the Galaxy S1 Plus, back in 2011. It's really fun to mess about with your device and learn how it works, especially when you're young. Once you mature a bit and start actually living your life, you won't bother with customization so much even if you're tech savvy. Especially if you're doing tech support as a job. You just want your own devices to JUST. WORK. when you pick them up. ALWAYS. It's as simple as that. And the devices that do always work are made by Apple. All Android phones crap out one way or another after a while and 'ain't nobody got time fo' dat'. People who claim they don't are just lying to people and to themselves. Yes, Apple devices aren't 100% reliable either, but they're miles better than Android devices and the issues that pop up are usually easier to solve. Technology is supposed to enhance your life and adapt to your needs, not the other way around. If you spend hours tinkering with your phone instead of spending time with family or going out, you're doing it wrong. The moment you need to tinker with something, that device has stolen time from you. Time that you won't ever get back. This is what people don't realize. And even if technology is your hobby and you're very passionate, one could argue that there are healthier hobbies out there. Nothing beats spending time with other people. Apple is the brand that's closest to achieving the ideal tech future, which looks like this: Your phone is broken. You go to the phone store to pick up a new one and just say: "I'll have a phone, please". Then they sell you the same phone that everyone else on the planet uses. It's just called 'phone'. There are no brands. You don't need to choose between 500 different options and worry about specs and shit. Everyone is connected in the same way, using the same devices, the same software and humanity's focus is on living their life, not on arguing on the internet about which technology is superior. There is no competition because all devices are able to tailor themselves to each individual's needs, like they should, so there's no reason for variety. Tech variety is just another way of dividing people when the goal should be to unify everyone. People will disagree with me on this, but they're wrong. They just don't realize it yet. That's the reason why Apple ads and events are less focused on specs and more focused on what you can actually do with the products and how they make your life better. It's because specs don't matter for shit. They're just numbers on a screen. Example: Yay, my phone charges 50% faster than yours. Congrats, so what? Are we all not charging our phones overnight anyway? They're all at 100% charge when we wake up. Who cares that yours only took 4 hours to get there and mine took 8? All that matters is the end product and how it improves your life. How it enables you to connect with other people. This is what technology is all about. There are Android phones with way better specs than iPhones, but they're not as user friendly and familiar to people. They would need to tinker with them and spend time to find workarounds for various issues or simply get used to the different software, which again is time that device is stealing from them.

@@dudebroguymate wow. Thanks for that, my neighbor recently switched to an iphone from a Google pixel because he's getting older, and wants to have time with his family. I understand where you are coming from with the "everyone has phone" for the majority of the population will agree, but there are some that do like having higher or upgradable "numbers" it depends what you do. Overall, I agree. You definitely gave me a new pov on the phone argument. Thanks.

@@procomgames yes I know the difference between RCS and iMessage. And while you can argue that Apple doesn't need to accommodate us Android users, you still have to remember that Apple is screwing over their own iOS users who are texting people on Android.

RCS allows your texting app to send messages over Wi-Fi, show read receipts when someone’s seen your message, support high-resolution file/picture sharing, and more1. iMessage is a messaging platform launched by Apple in 2011. It’s baked right into iOS and macOS devices, giving you an easy and streamlined platform for fast and fun text messaging. iMessage’s feature-set and popularity are unmatched, but its lack of support for Android devices has been a long-running pain point for some users. iMessage and Facetime support Face ID integration, custom stickers, find my map and more.

@@AuXXKeyz samsung use google messages as their default and i dont think it have screen share but ofc android have alternatives like google meet or discord

sorry to burst your bubble but airdrop is faster than windows and google’s nearby share. Windows nearby share is actually a joke, you cant transfer anything more then a few megabytes unless you have hours to waste. Google’s nearby share is okay, but it uses data and is limited to your internet speed (therefore will not work without internet). airdrop is faster because it creates a wifi connection between both devices therefore it wont use any data and will transfer close to theoretical wifi 5/6 speeds

@@prabhsaini1 yeah it's true, but samsung have quick share and it's have similar speed, even though you doesn't have samsung laptop you still can use quickshare

@@Alex-hv3ir I've heard more people complain about Samsung and Apple watches having absolute terrible battery life so that's across the board for watches I never recommend watches for anyone it's the stupidest thing ever their battery life is anywhere from 3 to 4 hours and that's if you're stretching it I've heard multiple complaints about people just returning cuz they said this thing is absolutely stupid in terms of the budget Samsung has a ridiculous amount of budget phones so they are dominating that market Apple has that absolutely retarded iPhone SE and if you want to defend that thing I know your IQ is below two who the hell wants a 720 piece screen on a 4.8 in screen LCD panel and have enormous bezels and battery life is absolute trash or what it has the flagship chip inside of it it's still absolutely trash so that's apples budget line and it's garbage

@@Alex-hv3ir pixels a series is about the best value for dollar in terms of all budget phones for example The Pixel 6A goes on sale for $299 and valley $4 that is ridiculous value for dollar It hits everything You need in a phone unfortunately Samsung with the other out with the a53 and they put in a absolutely s***** processor but with a 120 Hz panel and everyone loves that but if the chip can't keep up with the damn panel it sucks it's laggy it's stutters it's terrible so they took the long one route on the chip but as I stated iPhone went the high end route on the chip but absolutely s***** for the the panel the resolution of it panel itself nobody has LCDs anymore it's all OLED and then such a tiny ass screen and a tiny ass battery so the pixel is like that Goldilocks very middle 60 Hz panel flagship chip OLED panel it's incredible hell it even one the blind test camera award out of all the flagships the Pixel 6A took the crown the 6A with a smaller camera capacity it won I'm talking about the s230 I'm talking about the iPhone 14 pro Max I'm talking about everything it won number one people chose their pictures It was ridiculous and that's a $2.99 phone versus $1,400 phones versus $1,200 phones versus $1,000 phones

@@Alex-hv3ir as for apples tablets I would say again it's mainly in the chip but they are the fastest everyone knows that that's great but in terms of the tablet you don't even need that much power In fact Apple is actually limiting the power that can be actually used by that bloody m1 chip which is honestly amazing because of the iOS and everybody complains about that and by everybody I mean iPad users otherwise they do that on purpose so the iPad sales don't eat into the MacBook sales so in terms of the MacBook if you want to talk about that even with the $1,000 MacBook and m1 chip that we got the speakers were great The screen was good The bill was good but yet they still managed to put a 720p camera in there that looks like it was from 2010 It is horrendous I would accept that from a $400 laptop $500 laptop but not from $1,000 MacBook this even wanted to I think that the MacBook pro was and the way they fixed it which is not even fixing it they made a app so that you could use your iPhone it's camera as a webcam so that's hilarious so in order for me to actually have a good video call I would have to buy an iPhone plus my MacBook so we're talking about around $2,000 low end so if you want to bring up all the weaknesses of everyone else apples are really dropping the ball here and they're laughing too they're like oh they're still going to buy their idiots

Finally a person who isn’t annoying. I’d also stick to both ecosystems because they’re both simple and good in different ways. I can’t pick a side because they both are very practical. People keep letting people brainwash them into thinking one is better than the other with having any experience.

@@ummmbye1228 You literally just have been looking for someone that agrees with you.

@@mal0gen not really just been scrolling through these comments and found a relatable comment. That’s all

@@ummmbye1228 thank u… this tech is here for us to enjoy (what we can afford), not fight each other for companies who care only about our money. I’m gonna keep on caring only about my fun and I’m not letting anyone tell me what’s nice or fun…

@@ummmbye1228 literally the same thing

Don't listen to anyone trying to talk you down for picking what fits you most, king. That's just the cost of being free and open-minded.

What is MST ?...

​@@paulphoenix6512 it was a tech that samsung purchased, it basically turned your phone into a bank card so you could pay with it anywhere, not only modern terminals, litterily on everything
