Now, now, hold on. He has a point. Im an android user, but I like both companies, such as Apple and Samsung. I dont really care. I like the camera design on the iPhone 12 and up, and the fact they're adding USB-C, as it is way more helpful. You can't just say, "Oh, i think the Samsung S23 is better than the iPhone because of this and that" without proof. Let this man speak. He has a point. I currently use a Samsung S23+, Tab A (2016) and whatnot, but I still want an iPhone, just because of the style, and I want an unusual experience. Im glad Apple is moving to USB-C. it's a good idea. Im, however, mostly an Android person as I like them for how they work and how practical they are. If only we could "actually" know what's better. Anyway, man, keep making vids and dont let anyone tell you what you shouldn't and should do, I support you!
I like android more since a few years but i cant get the s23 ultra because the form of it is so annoying to me, i dont like the edges and the size of it so i didnt buy it and probably will get the iphone 15 pro even if it isnt that good as the s23 ultra
I would never consider ios as I can't stand modify home screen, hard to transfer files between Windows, doesn't support aptx wireless Bluetooth codec, couldn't install modded apps, etc..
My experience has been that most casual iPhone users are blissfully unaware that faster charging is available on other devices. Heck, I didn't know until like a year ago. When Apple finally does it, users will be impressed because they don't even consider other phones.
I think your wrong on this one my guy. Most people know that Android phones have faster charging, but they are not leaving Apple or the ecosystem for it! Get it? They will simply just wait for it because it’s a nice to have, but not that serious.
Bro, You made me switch from iPhone to Samsung. I used to own an iPhone 13 Pro but after watching you for like a month, I switched to my Samsung S22 (now S23 Ultra) and man I FUCKING LOVE IT
S23 models are all amazing but.. How the hell did you love the s22 the battery Is trash and the animations were glitchy for months and may still be because 2 processors means less optimisation.. but an s23 can have the stability and reliability of a console like a ps5 or an iPhone
The action button is a neat addition, although you're right that it's not entirely groundbreaking. Still, having an extra programmable key is always handy.
Why no one talks about this: we are in 2023 and even 300 dollar phones have high 90 or 120 hz refresh rate but vanilla 15 series are still stocked on 60 hz whereas it's now 3 years pro series have 120.
talked about it just ppl didn't want to hear it. "we;re buying the software not hardware" welp.. going for the base model of apple product is a bad decision for me, either saves up and goes to the pro series or just go with android flagship instd
@@imparkerburtonJust came across your channel. I like your energy. I am actually very interested to know of your experience once you receive the 15 Pro Max on the 22nd. Coming from someone who was a Nokia => Motorola => Sony Ericsson => Sony XPERIA (Android) person before my first iPhone, 5S.
Honestly i have tried the iphone 14 pro, and let me tell you switching from an android to ios idk why theres something about the feeling of using that phone feels so- premium, it is so solid. Love the size as well actually. Also It doesn't lag at all, it built like a brick, like the build quality is honestly one of the main reason why i like it, it feels so good to use and hold. Different from any phone I have ever used. The software is also something i actually prefer over android (maybe because i have been using android for so long switching to something new actually feels refreshing) love the always on display as well lol. And i game on phones more than pc, the optimisation on ios is amazing honestly compared to android (and its also coming from s23 ultra as well) But I ended up switching to samsung s23 ultra because of the pro camera option and using apk :P
The action button is so old that everyone hated Samsung for adding the functionality because it used to be only for Bixby and eventually everyone rejoiced when they removed it even though it had become programmable
@BonJoviBeatlessLedZep The Action button on the iPhone 15 and Apple watch ultra is literally a recycled and "inspired by Samsung's Bixby button" button.
Didn't they remove the programmable Bixby button & incorporate that functionality into the programable power button? I just leave mine set to the default 'press once for power options, press twice to open the camera', but in settings you can set it to launch any app you want.
Samsung already has a feature where you can get portrait photos taken by regular photos. This has been i think the 2nd or the 3rd Gen of the feature on Samsung. .
Yes, but I believe the difference is that the iPhone actually captures the depth data when the photo is originally taken, while Samsung just analyzes the photo afterwards to create a depth effect. (I haven't found specific information on this, but I think that's how it is.)
Agree on the A17 Pro naming. It got me thinking maybe there will be a standard and plus size SE as the new base models. Then have a Pro and Ultra/Pro Max model?? Or possibly the rebranding idea with the A17 pro being A18.
I'd love to hear your perspective on it tbh. I've been team android for 13 years now (good ol' eclair days), but Apple's hardware and iOS have come far. I would love to own both phones but my lifestyle can't affrod it. Plus I can't ever switch to iOS until they have a proper file management system, usb-c on-the-go and 256GB as base storage.
Innovation has slowed down to such a point that now it seems apple is withholding features, even when they could technically add them right away, so that they have something to update on their next year's iphones. All because they just know people are going to buy iphones anyway.
The major thing I need from Pixel is a proper chip with proper efficiency and thermal management. Also, get rid of that stupid glossy back and is it really that hard to offer uniform bezels ffs? I like how practical and straightforward their software is. That being said, I'll likely switch to iphone 15 if they don't get it right this time especially overheating when on cellular data (haven't noticed this since the last 2 updates but I doubt it's gone). *I feel like Google has what it takes to challenge Apple, I've seen glimpses of this but for some reason, it's not yet happened. By challenge, I mean compete, I personally believe serious competition, like having 5 major players go neck and neck, is very good for the consumers.
It'll be interesting to see the charging speed when the test units go out. The 14 Pro max could charge at 27W even though it was only advertised to charge at 20W so who knows if the 15 Pro Max will charge at 27W or more? TBH it doesn't bother me either way since I just slap my phone on my Belkin 3in1 Magsafe charger when I'm in bed and then it generally lasts a whole day. On the off chance that it doesn't last a whole day and I need a top-up, I have my Magsafe Momax battery bank.
@@IlhamiD90 Yeah it looks like a good phone. I used to have a Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra and it was a great phone but I really don’t like Android so I went back to iOS.
IPhone actually has the tapback feature has been on Iphones for years that you can program just like you can with new action button now. Personally I think they should've just left it as a mute switch.
He just described the features of 1phone 15, what was the android user pov in it ?? like what will an android user miss in iphones like call recording, installing external apks, etc. What will an android gain through iphone like better camera, updates etc.
The DI takes all the background activity you're running, & rather than keep it hidden up in the notifications area ready to view when you swipe down, it's on the display blocking even more content that the notch did. Seems more like a way of doubling down on the notch's intrusion on the display instead of giving users more screen real-estate back.
I noticed that the main camera lens moves forward and backwards as you change the focal lengths. I think that is not cropping, and it really changes the focal lengths by moving the lens.
I mean it's really just for using 1 cable across all devices, that was the main goal, + most people buying that phone wont be transferring data like that
If you have an Apple ecosystem with a MacBook and iPhone, you will never need to transfer data with a cable anyways. AirDrop is just as fast with a direct 5Ghz connection between devices.
@@dumm005 Hate to burst your bubble, but you can’t mount an android file system to macOS either lol. if you want to transfer files between an iPhone and Linux machine, or an android and a macOS machine, you’re going to have to SSH either way.
Android user here switching to normal 15. So i've been an android user for ~8years and iphone for ~3. I've had Samsungs, OnePlus, Xiaomi & Sony and now going to apple. Why? Because it's the most logical decision for MY needs (a longlife simple yet quite function savvy phone). All have pros and cons and you will change you phone brand in life due to your NEEDS changing. All are great but not necesarily for you. So when making a choice, choose what suits your needs today & don't go overboard just because 'I nEed Ultra or ProMax', because honestly 95% don't actually need them. Make a decision based on actual needs. Have fun y'all! Peace!
Same here been with Sony and Samsung and I only had iphone 3g and then iphone 6 and since left and currently have s20 ultra and only had it over 2 years and the quality sucks back and front cracked and I never cracked a phone before. The chassis is scratched and dotted even though the phone was always in case and screen protector. And the exyous cpu sucks. I have been looking at samsung s22 and s23, but I find it funny that my s20 ultra has more ram, and now the s23 ultra, I'd basically note that I'm not a fan of. 80% of what android provides I don't even use I got old and need simple just to get day by day. I'm going to keep s20 ultra for stuff that iPhone can't do but what got me excited for iphone is the ray tracing and brining AAA titles to mobile
That's good..this is how you stay an android guy..you try iPhone too. That's the only way to know if you still want to use an android. iphone has never won me ever since iphone 6. I keep trying them, but still android for me.
I have been a lifetime android user, got a 15 pro max as my first iphone. I am actually really enjoying it. If apple had more customisation I would give it a 10/10
what do you rate it with the reduced customization factor? I'm on an s22 ultra snapdragon, which is a great phone, but a little choppy feeling in fluidity compared to other samsung devices I've used. Nowadays I don't pirate things. I don't play around with android customization. I'm heavily considering iPhone. Are you impressed with the animations and general feel of using the thing?
@@hobosnake1I see you didn't get a respond. I'll give you on based on the 15 pro that I have. Customization is more limited on the iphone, like email notification is a little wanky because they are on but doesn't show, but overall the phone is great with reachablility settings similar to samsung. But yet no one handed keyboard use. When on the keyboard you find all the "123-:;?()[]" Icons on a second tap, while samsung have a feature to hold on certain letters to get the one you need up. But if you can lay all that aside, and just blankly try the iphone its a neck to neck experience. You can easily use iphone face id with ease, even in the dark [P.S I have the s23 as well]
Your reasoning for buying an iPhone are just not valid enough. They are still the same shitty controlling company. I don't buy iPhones or iPads out of sheer principle. I don't care how good they are.
Its fucking insane how under understood the processor upgrade is. This is a godsend for all computer companies that produce cpus, period. This is not just an upgrade for phones, they went for power efficiency with the cpu. They are NOT using the full power of it, EVER, yet it is STILL ALMOST the strongest (base size) chip in existence. If used at full, I personally believe that this chip, which should be bad compared to gaming setup chips, can outperform them in specific scenarios. Keep in mind, while this tech is POSSIBLE, its not exactly useful yet, as most cpus in actual computers have much larger transistors and will not go down as small as the iphone, within the next decade in my opinion, however the possibily of it is seriously insane.
I was always an Android user. My first Samsung device was the S4. Back then at least to me, I always viewed Apple as just way more premium. I had the S5 and a few other Android phones until I finally decided to buy an iPhone 7. My view was correct. The iPhone 7 just felt in another league. I then upgraded to the XR, then 12 Pro Max and now the 15 Pro Max. I will remain an iPhone user because to me, they just feel superior and more premium. Not to mention the level of privacy and security you get with Apple is unmatched.
I have S24U while my sister using iphone 15. Both phones are our first flagship in our life, previously I knew these two brands are the top dogs but I never really care to know about it on deeper scale. But after having it and make some comparisons with my sister's phone, I became to hugely appreciate both brands
I notice that the people commenting on RU-vid videos seem a lot more mature than the comments you get on shorts. definitely release some apple videos here so you get less hate from the hardcore android cult. (Both are good in their own ways)
The S21 Ultra used a multi-fold prism periscope and that was why its range was longer than the S22 and S23 Ultra (240mm vs 230mm). The S22 and S23 reverted back to a single-fold periscope for the 10X, but gave those lens modules the benefit of less chromatic aberration. Apple wasn't the first one to do a multi-prism periscope, but for some stupid reason they are getting the credit of being the first. (Source: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-FzshLMEVbrU.html --- GALAXY S21 ULTRA UNTOLD STORES: CAMERA)
Many idiots also think that Apple came up with two cameras in a phone or that they released the first smartphone with a fingerprint sensor. In 10 years they will also start talking nonsense that Apple was the first to introduce Type C. Apple has been able to present everyday things that are on Android for a long time as innovation.
@@trevourlance27 This is all true, but ios does indeed have more fluid animations and better performance. Better app optimization as well. I have an s22 ultra right now. I am an android guy. I'm not lying. My girlfriend has one. I'm considering an iphone honestly, but realistically I think android is just a better value with more freedom and features. My point in bringing these things up is just that there is a value. Are iPhones probably overrated? yeah. They're still pretty cool though I have to admit.
I actually like that they kept the 3 times zoom on the pro. Maybe I'm in the minority but I use 3x more than 5x. Now when I use my Samsung s23 ultra I use the 10x lens a lot. But 5 seems like an awkward in between.
Hey I've been an apple user since the first iPhone I was 20 when it was released. This year I purchased the 15 pro (I upgrade every year) but I also just pre-ordered the pixel 8 pro and I think I'm going to be using that one as my daily driver. So Google might have just turned the only apple user to the pixel. This will be my first android phone in 15 years haha
I'm the opposite pretty much. Trying out the iPhone side of things soon enough. I don't know if that phone has released yet or not, but if it did, how are you feeling about android 100% candidly? I'm just getting bored of it, but it's worked very well for me over the years.
And if they don't come out with "revolutionary" features for their next phone I will be laughing in every Samsung users face because how can you expect big changes for an iphone every year when Samsung and Google only make incremental updates too? Just say you're an Apple hater and move on lol. Phones are pretty much necessary in today's world. They do what they need to do. Any other features added on at this point are gimicks, regardless of who's making the phone.
@@773Chicagowe’ll see how that works the pixels using exynos have been worse than pixels with snapdragon but I know Samsung is working hard to make the next exynos a lot better. We’ll see.
You're right, the USB 2.0 speeds on the lower spec iPhones are not gonna transfer over a cable lmao. It's an SoC limitation anyway. Let's hope they don't articifically limit on next year's models.
4:40 Still can't understand why that was removed from the other phones in the past. And the underscreen camera... I think lots of companies just waiting for Apple releases smth what already invented and then copy it
Physical button is a really cool option. With goodlock on samsung, it could be a lot of configs such as volume down + this button, power button + this button and etc
Every body is shaming apple for making small updates every year can I ask what BIG features did Samsung bring to their phones (the flip and fold got big changes but besides that) compared to the Chinese companies?
i don't think it's shaming as much as poking fun; apple likes to act like they're re-revolutionizing the smartphone because they changed the corners or added usb-c (FINALLY - after they were forced to)... i don't know about the galaxy s-series but you said yourself samsung upgraded the flip and fold significantly while apple doesn't even have a flip or fold etc...
@@davidletarte214yeah it's just a bit of fun, apple managed to call the base 15 and 15 plus all new design with a straight face, while Samsung didn't even call s20 and ultra all new design lol.
The only thing stopping me from going to iPhone is that 60hz refresh rate on the non pro variant. Can't justify getting the pro variant just for that higher refresh rate.
HOLD UP Apple did change their charging speed for the pro models on their phones. The base model still charges at the same speed at lightning but the pro models have improved charging speeds and a faster transferring data speed.
i would like to buy an S24+ or an S24 ultra or an iphone 15 pro o an iphone 15 pro max but the ultra is too rectangular and the iphones seems better for some things than the S24+, but in case i dont know if i wanna the 15 pro which is smaller and i like it enough but has not a good battery while the 15 pro max is bigger with more battery 😵💫😵💫😵💫 (the price is not important for me i just want the best one for me)
I still think 30W isn't as slow as techie guys make it look like. I use old phone with 18W capable. And it hits top wattage just for few minutes and tapers off gradually after that. 50% in about 30minutes for the iPhone is completely fine
Well, the 15PM takes over 1.5h to charge, when phone like s23u with 45W take less than an hour. Also, I also have 33W phone, but faster can be better especially at 999£.
I switched back and forth with Android and Apple over the years. Honestly it feels like if you want a phone that just works and would work for years, get the iPhone. My iPhone 7 still works fine these days. Only drawback is that you have to get used to the Apple way of doing things. Android is the best if you are a poweruser. It’s basically a mini PC in your hands. Samsung is really good with this but I think the Android OS is just plain worse in terms of longevity no matter the brand. I find that you most likely would need to use a custom ROM once it gets slow if you want to retain the new phone performance
I understand Apple gate keeping 120 Hz and locking it behind as a pro feature but cmon at least make a 90 Hz display and call it Smooth Motion or something.
I'll be honest, I am really not on either side for what phone I use, I think they both have their own strengths and weaknesses. Currently I'm using a galaxy S9+ and I'm a big fan of the Google pixel phones. I am also a fan of apple too though, people really say apple copies everyone but let's be honest here every company copies each other (now yes maybe apple copied more from Android phones then Android phones have copied from apple) but I still think it's something to take into consideration when thinking of the apple vs Android debate. Overall great video though, you definitely earned a sub!
My family has always been an android family so ive also always had an android, and for a bit now ive been wanting to see what its like to use an iphone. but for a bit my mom had to use an iphone xr when it came out and she hated it, transferring her stuff to and from it and all, so ive been skeptical about getting an iphone and im more and more tempted now with this 15 pro. Currently using the s22+
Don't even think about it bro, just update your phone to the S24 when it comes out. I use iPhone a couple times in the past and let me tell you, it was a horrible experience. Their App store is full of trash, their iCloud will ask for your password every single hour, their phone gets extremely hot in a matter of seconds, and you can't customize anything except for the wallpaper and lock screen. Horrible!
Like you said about the USBC speed and the average customer not caring about speed of the cable is the exact same way the average customer does not care about 120hz because you can’t really notice the difference. Give the average mom & dad 2 different phones and I guarantee they won’t notice the difference in screen refresh rates.
i went from a OnePlus 7 pro to the iphone 15 pro im pretty happy with my purchase. i use WhatsApp a lot and OP7Pro had an issue with the sensor so im gland thats over.
I don't understand the people who are switching teams after this guy's video. IPHONE IS EQUALLY GOOD.... don't get convinced very easily, do your own research!!!! See whats better for u and put your money on that.
Kinda yeah, overall android Vs apple, it's equal, but it's all depending on what you are looking for, budget? Android, specs? Android, customization? Android, etc. But if you want a high quality phone that has years of updates, great cameras, great performance, etc. Without needing to do any research, apple. It's just the easy choice for most people because you know it'll be good without research, with android you'll have to research for what you want and then it'll be good
@@tronpigexactly....plus there's so many Android phones out there and you are actually overwhelmed while there's only 4 iphones to choose from every year.
@@a__random__fan-1 or if you do a payment plan or save up, I mean I'm a teen in a poorish family, got a job, saved for a few months, and bought an $800 s23, so it's very possible, but then there's also privileged familys who can just afford them, and gift them to their kids and such
@@a__random__fan-1 also there's always trade in, like with verizon, you buy an iPhone once, and you can always trade it in for the newest one free of charge
I currently i have an iPhone 14 plus and yes i do miss the 120 hz on android this is my first iphone but the screen is beautiful but o really miss 120 hz and AOD 😢
The cable you get in the box of the pro models does not support the higher data transfer speeds in order to get that you would need to purchase an additional cable.
I suspect they called it pro because of the rumor that the base model iphone 16's chip will not be the same chip even if it might use the same architecture
I love Apple products and switched everything (PC, Android phones, earbuds, etc.) to Apple's ecosystem 4 years ago, except their hardware repair is horrendous and very restrictive.
@@megyalilaballad It might be, I only consider AppleCare for MacBooks because it's so damn expensive. The screen of my M1 Pro 16" MacBook costs 1/3 of the entire laptop costs. But still, it's a bad practice by Apple, if they say they are working towards "carbon neutrality" by 2030, they should make their products easy to repair so it lasts longer.
I truely recommend people to use as many differnent types of products as possible. Always try to stay away from this eco system wall gardening, its how companies are able to scam their users from time to time and get away with it, because no one is gonna switchbfrom their products just because they run shitty products every few years.
Trust me, I have never used lightning cable data transfer, I always use Airdrop on my 14 pro. btw I love Android more like iOS, I also think that overall UIUX MIUI is better than iOS.
@@wheelyflac Google's Tensor is definitely nowhere near Apple's Bionic but the thing is Google makes better use of the Tensor than Apple does the Bionic. The Bionic keeps packing up which is fantastic but it feels like it's just there for bragging rights while Google actually exploits what's possible with the Tensor (imagine what they can do with serious power). Tensor needs to beef up too but most importantly, they need to get the thermals right, I hate that it's known for overheating! Also some minor things that Google overlook that I find annoying, like there's no reason wse for not having uniform bezels or sticking to glossy finish. How hard is it to make these adjustments ffs.
People always ask why did Apple wait so long to use USB-C on the iPhone well, the simple answer is "money" and I mean big money. What a lot of people don’t know is ironically, Apple is the first company to introduce USB-C to the world, they actually made the very first device with a USB-C port on it, and said it was the port of the future, but they decided to make their own port for their iPhones because they don’t own USB-C and they made billions and billions of dollars off of the 30 pin connector and the lightning port because of all the third-party support it got and in order to put lightning on something you made you had to pay Apple and we all know that lightning had more support than any other port.
"I'm an Android user" (In the background is a MacBook because we HAVE to prove our influencer props *nod*... and he's buying an iPhone... RIIIIIIGHT :) )
Ive been an android/galaxy user for over a decade and well I've been waiting for apple to get usb c recently that was my tipping point. As I get older idc about the extra features and tweaks I can n my android because honestly I don't ever really use them. On top of that all my friends and family have iphones and imessage is far superior tbh. I loved my androids but I think it's time to move on. Only thing is all my years and years of data and pics might not transfer over so seamless from my google, samsung, external storage and messaging apps.
Unless you're in US, android will serves you well. tbh the selling point of android is always the customization etc" but even without that, the phone is still good from the get go. People mistakenly opinionated that they have to do customization etc on an android
