2 years with an iPhone, have confirmed that iPhone is great ( Build quality, Speakers, Chip, Screen) but iOS is too restrictive and incomplete for me. I wouldn't choose 15 Pro Max only for videos. Since I DGAF about Ecosystem too, S24 Ultra is my choice without a doubt.
Luckily everyone has a choice and buys what they like based on OS preference or the hardware. iOS is great for more simplicity and app support, the hardware is superb and the ecosystem works better for most and the consistent updates from Apple to all supported devices at the same time are a plus. Samsung has come a long way with hardware and updates but certain aspects of Android still hold it back because if the number of different Android devices needing to be supported or requiring other provisions and this is why Apple gets so much hate. Apples ecosystem not integrating with Android devices and the lack of a real multitask function or customization or device freedom is where Apple gets hate. Apple wants to ensure a seamless integration experience and has always been this way but is slowly evolving to a more open platform 🤞
@@gojo4808 A lot of people love and use and talk about Samsung Ecosystem and i could totally buy and use a Galaxy Watch or Galaxy Tab but i don't like tablets and i love mechanical watches. I have had iPad and Galaxy Tab in the past: it's not for me. I use my iPhone with a Windows 💻, a Nothing Phone(1), my Bose QC45. My phones are the devices i always first: MAIN device. Full brand ecosystem will always be a "nice to have" for me. I just compare phones and only phones together.
😑feeling superior because they have Apple ecosystem or because they don't consider Samsung ecosystem, you're a shame. Some people just live in their own bubble: ridiculous🤨
When iPhones has flaws like overheating people is hush hush to prevent bad marketing. Yet, the reverse, people will lose their minds. That should tell you about the company and people that uses them.
Came to the 15 Pro Max from the 11, and before that, the Note 4. Now looking for the first opportunity to get back to Samsung. I've grown blind to how much I miss android after being with IOS for so long. Here's my personal list of reasons for the switch: I hate waiting on apple's animation, even with motion dialed down. I also hate waiting for apps to finish doing something instead of them being able to run in the background. I also prefer android keyboards, customization, T9 dialer, speed dial, cursor movement, no swiping after screen unlock, home screen setup, file management, text copying, back button, home screen layout, ultra fast charging, in-app settings, in-app notification settings, notifications, widgets, google assistant, ultra low power mode, scheduled text messages, dex, and higher screen brightness for bright sunny days. The only thing I could see myself missing about my iphone is native encrypted messaging, but the use case for me is limited. Can't wait to switch back to android.
Only reason I switched to iPhone from pixel was the Apple Watch Ultra 2, there just isn’t any competition yet unfortunately. Otherwise I would definitely run back to android easily. I have an s9 ultra and I scratch my android crave on that beast of a tablet
Great video, it's all about personal requirements. I have been an iPhone user since the X. This year I picked up the s24 as a fun phone. Instantly fell in love with where android is today and I was having fun again. Every year iPhone to iPhone felt the same, upgrading didn't have any excitement anymore. My 14 pro max felt the same as my 15 pro max. I ended up selling my 15 pro max and haven't looked back. Googles ecosystem has come a long way!
Just came across your video, excellent job. June 10th bought a new iPhone 15 Pro Max and today, June 15th i’m taking back to my carrier and switching to a Samsung S 24 ultra. Had always been a Samsung user in the past thought I would try the iPhone out, for me a big mistake. BTW I love your wallpaper and icon pack.!
I normally have both the Ultra and Pro Max phones together but this year I couldn't. For work I'd use the iPhone and for the weekends the Samsung. My Company has now pushed into an Apple ecosystem where we have everything Apple now. Even my dog has an AirTag. Sticking with the iPhone 15 Pro Max for a while, it's such a solid device. Plus I have an external hard drive (for Log video), MagSafe accessories at my house, in my car and at work.
I’m not really a fan of Samsung multitasking. I don’t really find it that useful. What I missed more than anything from iPhone was the ability to quick swipe on the bottom of the screen to quickly swipe back-and-forth between screens. That’s simple ultrafast gesture I found more useful than any multitasking on android. I missed it so much.
You can still do that on Samsung phones! I used it all the time before changing to iOS, honestly gestures work basically the same on both phones with the exception of there not being a universal return gesture on iOS
This video points out kinda deciding factors. It's up to a user what you prefer these days. However, I think iphone being unable to do tasks and be as compact device of all the features and such for their prices is a crime ar this stage. I'm on iphone 15 pro max and I always complain about the iOs which compared to android is prehistoric. However. As said here, it's still a great phone for different type of users, so everyone can find their own field whether choosing iphone or Samsung.
I've been iphone for years. Swapped to 24U last week. Main thing i hate is trying to send pictures and videos to anyone with iphone. Might swap back just for this reason.
Don't switch back yet, with ios 18 apple is finally adopting rcs messaging meaning texting is better and picture quality sent between phones are full quality. You can get imessages anyways on android using blue bubbles (watch a video) and it works perfectly. I switched the z fold 5 after being a lifetime ios user and I couldn't be more happy.
The fact that almost no 'Tech Reviewer' was even dead serious about the massive Overheating and Battery Issues, on first, the 14 Pro Max and then now on the 15 Pro Max tells you all you need to know about these people. My own 14 Pro Max for the first 4-5 months was a pain in the ass to use. The battery drained like crazy. iOS 16 had sooooooooooooo many bugs. It overheated whilst making calls on 5G, or watching anything [like TH-cam or Netflix]. Had the same issues with my Pixel 7 Pro as well. But my S22 Ultra is the King. Awesome Battery Life, crazy-fast snappy performance, no bugs or slowdowns whatsoever, [have 2-3 GoodLock Modules (Registart etc) that are permanently running in the background], no overheating, nothing. But, everybody right up to MKBHD, railed against the Pixel 7 Series, but didn't utter a single word about the issues plaguing 14 Pros and 15 Pros.
Look, I'm not here to downplay Samsung-it's an impressive device with great specs on paper, and Android allows for more customization. But let's not ignore why Apple dominates year after year. It’s not just about hardware; it’s about the whole ecosystem. The way iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple Watch sync seamlessly is something Samsung can’t replicate. Not to mention, iOS is optimized for performance and simplicity, which is why it doesn’t need to overload on RAM just to keep up. Apple's focus on privacy and security is another reason people stick with it-some of us actually care about that. And when things do go wrong, Apple’s customer service and support are leagues ahead. So, sure, Samsung has its advantages, but don’t act like specs alone make it 'superior.' There’s a reason people keep coming back to iPhone, and it’s not because we’re clueless-it’s because the user experience just works
@@mikejack9733 I'd say 2 things in response. Firstly, I didn't bring up the Spec Sheet. Secondly, on the Ecosystem aspect, as someone who owns almost all Apple products since 2008-ish, I'd say Samsung is very, very close to Apple's Ecosystem. Of course, Samsung has [like Apple] tried keeping some available only on Galaxy devices [like a Galaxy Book and Samsung Tab etc] but Phone Link and Quick Share work wonderfully. On any device [except for the latter]. I regularly 'AirDrop'/ aka Quick Share stuff between my S22 Ultra and XPS 13 Plus, and sometimes between my Gaming PC and the Samsung. It works just as well. Link Share is even better. And Phone Link has been doing what Apple cannot do even now [like Phone Mirroring (which Apple is bringing now with iOS 18, when we've been doing that for more than 6-7 years if I'm not mistaken]. And as for the Services, it is just that Apple's Service Centers are more fancy ]and more widespread because of their market-share], but they're hella expensive anyways. So, at least for me, whatever this Windows-Android Ecosystem is, it is on par with Apple's. My Photos get Synced via Google Drive and Photos, my Notes with OneNote and Obsidian, and I use a Password-Manager, so there is literally nothing that gets left out.
@@mikejack9733very true. But I’ve been on iPhone for some time now, (6-6s-10xr-11-13-14pro and now 15 pro max. Everything between was android like gs8-note10-s22ultra) so I know both sides rather well, and iPhone is like the car that goes 100mph and zero fails. Android is like the car that goes 150mph but may need a mechanic once in a while. I love iPhone for photos and videos and just how well everything syncs together, but it gets so damn boring. iOS 18 may change that but I’m not downloading a beta that’s bug laden so I’ll wait for September to download the real one. But by then I may switch with my daughter who has the s24 ultra. Thankfully for me her friends mostly use iPhones and she may switch with me. Both systems have their pros and cons and if it was strictly cameras I’d stay with iPhone. But I want a bit more flexibility with android. I miss launchers and theme packs and icon customization. Not gonna lie I want the stylus again too.
Just a point for those who use tempered glass protectors: they will eliminate the anti-glare advantage and make the glass reflectivity similar to that of the other brands. This is a bad miss by Samsung, as many of us slap on a protector, and £1350 phones that are with us 24/7 need a case and protection unless you are rich. Corning, which owns the anti-glare patent, is unlikely to allow this on tempered glass protectors, at least for the medium term, so that is a negative. Corning allowed Samsung to sell (very expensive) non-tempered screen protectors that help with scratches but are not as helpful for drops. Samsung bought an exclusive period for this feature and that is now over, so we are likely to see many OEMs use this next year.
How is 3rd party usage of tempered glass screen protector a miss on samsungs side You are paying 1300$ for a phone you should be able to spring for the anti reflective screen protector no?
@@wHyNoTCaTs-ef4yh@wHyNoTCaTs-ef4yh It's a miss as if you buy a tempered glass screen protector, you lose the anti-glare feature. Samsung should have thought about this. It means my S24U with a tempered glass protector does not have the anti-glare! Maybe Samsung wants us to go naked for more smashed screens? But it is a mistake. Hopefully, a solution will arrive.
@@andyH_England there's an anti glare screen protector. U don't have to smash your device lol To me samsung is doing something different and amazing While other brands are becoming lazy an way too comfortable cough apple
I'm trying to get my hands on one, but it's finding impossible to get it here in the US. Maybe when I get a chance to go to Europe/Asia, I'll have better luck!
@@HeyMarkL I, really hope you get your hands on one, though. I read online from China, it went outta stock in one minute, that's insane. I'm patiently waiting for it, you'd eventually get one of those phones. Be Safe and Stay Healthy, Mark..🙏🏾
I shoot video on iPhones and edit them in Lumafusion. They are sending me a Galaxy S24 on a 7 day trial so I can see if the video features/output work better for my purposes. But here you seem to be saying that despite the 200 megapixel camera on Samsung, you prefer the iPhone for video content creators. Do you have a video where you cover your video editing process?
Amigo, que tal te fue en la prueba con el s24? me encanta samsung, pero me traba lo de la creacion de contenido a la hora de elegir entre el s24 ultra y 15 pro max
Hands down the pro max has better cameras for video for sure. But I’m so tired of iPhone not having everything android has is the only reason I want to switch. If it was strictly a camera or filming decision I would stay with iPhone. If you want freedom of expression and just overall more options I would go Samsung. I don’t do crazy edits I just to basic stitching on iMovie. Or CapCut.
My wet dream is an iOS on a Galaxy S24 Ultra + splitscreen/pop-up window, clipboard, customizability (GoodLock level), no iMessage blue/green bubble BS, camera app (pro mode) and Samsung Notes.
I've never owned an iPhone before always been an android user. But, I'm going to try the iPhone out in September and see if I like it. I figure I should get the best that iPhone has to offer and I think that is the IPHONE 16 Pro Max
Any differences when scrolling through social media apps? I mainly use my phone for that and prefer when it's fast and smooth scrolling through. I currently have iPhone 14 pro max.
Yeah, the inertia from iOS (where it feels like it’s rubbery towards the top and end of an animation) feels better on iOS than Android. But besides that, smooth sailing on the S24 Ultra. Everything is super snappy and fluid.
You said you'll focus more on the cameras because it'll be harder to compare the different OS and hardware. But isn't that what it's about? If the OS and hardware were almost the same, then I could see you saying it'd be harder to compare. All love.
When I say that, I mean that comparing Android to iOS and vice versa isn’t an easy topic to cover in one video. This will be a 30+ min video if I were to talk about every little thing about OS differences. I think at the point. If you’re searching up the Ultras and Pro Maxes you’re already aware of the differences in OS. Hardware/Design, I think S24U is better. But performance wise. Apple is still top dog. Thank you tho!
I don't care who has the best camera or is the fastest phone in benchmarks. Every flagship smartphone takes super pictures and video's and is blazing fast. 97% of all smartphone users don't even see the differences. I'm a SMARTPHONE user so I want the best screen (dpi/brightness/anti-glare), best battery, best/most usablility and productivity options, best gaming- and multi-media experience, best personalization options and best innovation. I want DEX, KNOX, S-PEN, call recording, multi-tasking, multi-window, fingerprint scanner, best screen, widgets, themes, integration with windows, the biggest eco-system (Samsung SmartThings), fast charging, fast wireless charging and I want AI. On all these aspects the S24 Ultra is destroying the iphone 15 PM big time. So why keep people buying these antiquated, restricted and very very limited iphones?
i left the house today and turned on youtube, liestening to clips and music videos the entire time NON STOP, the screen was never off, as i traveled to the gym, worked out, left and waited for hot food to be made, traveled home... at least 1.5 hours, maybe 2.... the phone used 9% battery s24 ultra is RIDICULOUS
Still don’t understand the war between both camps.. A phone is still and will always be a personal preference. I had the S23 and just updated to the 15 Pro Max. Not because I prefer iPhone over Samsung. It’s just because iPhone is closer to my needs than Samsung (Interface-wise). Both the 24 Ultra and the 15 Pro Max are beasts, it’s just all about the OS you prefer or in wich ecosystem you’re in..
Lol I am an esports gamer and I only use my iphone as it has a faster CPU. I am a travel vlogger. But i still went for oneplus 12 as it has faster charging, can almost do 80% tasks as my iphone can do. My viewers never saw my iphone because I barely use it. So yeah, another common excuse of hating iphone.
The s24U cameras sound great and look good on paper, but in the real world the cameras always disappoint. I’ll always grab my 15PM over my s24U for pictures that really count. And the iPhone captures much better pics when there is any kind of motion, unlike the Samsung which still, after all these years cannot seem to address this issue.
Ya I've noticed that issue since the Note 20 Ultra. And I've tried the S21 Ultra, S22 Ultra, and S23 Ultra. Every photo I've taken indoors (and other low-light situations) has been blurry. Some people love the Samsung cameras, but I can never get consistent results with them. It just makes me a little sad because I'm not a fan of iOS, but also can't seem to get a good overall experience on any Android phone I've tried in the last few years. Almost everything about the Samsung is great, except the camera is unreliable. The Pixel camera is great, but the fingerprint scanner and the wireless modem are terrible. Guess I'll keep my iPhone for a little longer.
I am getting hardly 4 hours SOT, only once I got 4.5 hours with power saving On being a medium user not a heavy user. Been using S 24 Ultra since 23rd January & updated to latest software
@@HeyMarkL umm what about if you put it on default profile?? My dad's s24 ultra drains 15 mins much faster than my iPhone 15 pro max. Any tips to get more battery life on Samsung??
🤣🤣🤣 sounds like my same experience with Samsung. I switched and got the 15 pro max, never had a better battery experience than this not once in the 14 years I spent with android. I had nearly every Samsung flagship and the battery was always trash, especially the S22 ultra (which is the phone that caused me to switch) I thought the S24 ultra was supposed to be better but I guess not. Glad I switched. Even on the “bad” days, I get 6-7hrs and on its best days, I can get almost 2 days out of this phone.
If your family and friends use Apple, I think your best option is to use Apple also. When it comes to cameras it doesn’t really matter. But I think Samsung is way more fun phone to use just because of the customization, and GalaxyAI is just great. But I think people should get the phone which your friends and family use. Great video!
@@HeyMarkL I was reading somewhere that they will improve Siri with AI, no idea if that’s true but if it is I’m not sure if that’s what I want though. Personally (if that is the case) I think that Samsung AI is a lot more handy. But we have to wait and see what iOS18 has to offer!
Once my iphones started failing after "updates" i was done, never looked back. The gboard keyboard and google messages are nice af too. Used to love iOS, but android has def surpased it imo.
The unfortunate thing about phones is that there was a time when phones got thinner and lighter and that was a great thing. But now, the newest phone is much, much, much thicker and heavier than the phones I had 8 years ago. Now we have giant camera humps sticking out the back of the phone. The phone can't even lay flat on a table. And we're still saying that the design is amazing and "premium". But in the past, the giant ugly camera hump sticking a half inch out of the back was the ugliest thing in the world. I had a Note 8. It was really too big and wouldn't fit in my pocket. I felt like, I just can't go any bigger than this. Then I upgraded to the S23 Ultra and it is much bigger and heavier. It's the first time I've felt like, this thing is actually heavy in my hand. Like, if I hold it too long, I have to adjust my grip or something. I become aware that it's heavy in my hand. I think the iPhone is almost exactly the same. I think I would like to have an iPhone. Samsung camera is never going to be good enough to me, and there are some things that simply never improve about the Samsung phones so I'd like to try an iPhone next. But, it's really hard to give up everything I like about the Galaxy phones.
Using that iPhone 15 pro max coming from s23 ultra I liked the ultra but switched to iPhone 15 pro max for my own choice. Both are winners I just prefer iOS especially when iOS 18 is around the corner. Android and apple users don’t be to harsh with each other lol
All I know is I need to get away from Apple. Every single Apple I’ve had this last decade has given me nothing but trouble and stressful expense. Even after a recent battery replacement, I’m currently using a phone where nobody can hear me on calls 😢 at all! On any platform. The people who replaced my battery will not accept responsibility or refund me, and Apple are adamant nothing is wrong! I have health issues which require emergency calls and they don’t understand I don’t have the funds to just go and buy a new phone whenever I fancy it! This is a venting post, not a “Someone give me something” post 😅 before anyone starts 😅 I have so so so many more issues with Apple but I’m too physically and emotional exhausted at the moment to explain. All I know is this iPhone in my hand right now will absolutely be my last!
As for fast charging when you are out and about, I have a MagSafe Battery pack that I keep on for about 4-5 hours extra SOT. So I am looking forward to Samsung having Qi 2.0, which will allow that on the Galaxy S line. So I disagree that slightly faster charging is a big deal especially for top-ups, the convenience of MagSafe trumps that easily.
We have magsafe too! It's not built in like an iPhone but there are magsafe cases for all devices now. So we, too, can utilize wireless power banks! Samsung is more convenient because you can reverse wireless charge too!
@@1993rufus It is not Magsafe which is a trademark. It is simply a magnet in the case. Does not have software support either and that is why I mentioned that Qi 2.0 would be welcome as that opens up true Magsafe capability.
@@andyH_EnglandWhy do magnets need software support? 😂😂 Look, Samsung can't integrate magsafe because of the Spen, the magnets would mess charging and the connectivity it offers. What I'm saying is that, you can't say that only Apple has magnet wireless charging because there are options for us Android users to achieve the same thing, all we need is a case, nothing fancy or expensive! Reverse wireless charging is better than magnetic charging because there is no case or attachment that can allow your iPhone to Reverse wireless charge any device. You know how many times it has saved me at the gym to wireless charge my buds. 10 minutes give me enough juice for 1.5 hours gym time!
@@1993rufus The software allows for the optimisation of wireless charging so if you are doing something intensive it will restrict the charging to prevent overheating. Also, it allows support for an extended battery rather than just charging. That is pass-through charging before it drains the internal battery. That is why Magsafe has been a value-added feature for people like me who just slap it on and the iPhone uses the pack before it even touches the internal battery.
I've had Android phones my entire life, and then this past Christmas, I got an iPhone 14. I loved it up until the past couple of weeks (my battery capacity was draining quickly, most likely due to me being on beta updates). Then, this past Sunday, I went to AT&T and got the S24 Plus. However, part of me wants to go back to the iPhone. I did really enjoy it. I think part of me just wanted a better model (don't get me wrong, the 14 is an amazing model). I didn't like my camera zoom and wanted a better battery. Also, websites have better case offers for iPhones. If I had upgraded mine but stayed with the iPhone, I would have gotten either the 15 Plus or the 15 Pro. I feel like in school, especially, it's weird not to have an iPhone. It's almost like a social status, which pains me because I know there will be people who make fun of me. I think after my contract is done on this phone, I might switch back. The crazy thing is that I'm getting close to the same screen time as my iPhone 14, which had a 3279 mAh battery capacity, and this one has a 4900 mAh battery. That doesn't make sense at all, but I guess it comes down to the hardware of the phone.
I have both phones but I prefer my trusted iPhone and IOS. You can’t go wrong with Apple. However, I would like to add that I do love the Samsung S24 and I enjoy using it every day
Nobody ever mentions how bad iPhones are with direct sunlight work it is terrible was just in Cabo with the family and couldn’t use my phone 📱 at all because it was too hot. Either the phone had a temp guard saying you could not use it or the screen wasn’t bright enough @apple. Why do you guys do this so FRUSTRATING
I think if you have main mirrorless camera to shoot your main projects, and you use your phone just for additional content let's say Instagram reels and stories , apple pro res doesn't make a lot of sense here, nobody in Instagram would care about apple pro res quality, and it takes much longer to edit. And for real projects you use your main camera , which most of them i believe would be better than iPhone pro res. If you dont have a mirrorless camera iPhone 15 pro might make sense.
There is no difference between those two phones. The only reason to make a choise is you like ios or android. But when you buy iphone for ios, you should not al those android app download from the app store. So, no google, no gmail, no facebook, instagram etcetc
i would love to have S24 ultra but im going fr iphone 15 pro reasons 1. its too big i like smol phones more ( i dont mind the battery life i dont use it much) i wish we had a smol sized s24 ultra 2. regular S24 is an option but i have my doubts on exynos ( i live in Germany )
@@notimportant3686 not really if u check the sizes iphone 15 pro max and s24 ultra are the same size but iphone 15 (which i said im rooting for) is the smaller one as small as the regular s24
@@Arty77777 for all intents and purposes they are the same size... it doesn't mean identical... it means, it's a large phone in your hand no matter which one you pick... do you not get what realistic comparison is vs technically accurate?
No point of argument. It is still a personal preference... I always have both. S22 and S23 ultras. I ended up with pink and green lines. Apple got no problems at all..
The Averge user dont care about pro log on the iPhone cos it takes alot of space and not anyone know all the processes it take to edit log videos so to me samsung is the win I prioritizes photos than video I only use snapchat for video which samsung is very well optimized for 🎉
What kills the s24 ultra for me are the shutter speed issues. Moving objects are still a major issue on samsungs for whatever reason since years. Also a LOT of noise in the pictures. Everything else is great but the camera is mid overall.
Oh hard agree on moving subjects. My only fix for it is to use pro mode which does fix it a bit but not all the time. Samsung needs a major revamp in cameras/sensors imo.
S24 ultra video quality is extremely good than the way Tech. reviewers talked about it. I believed those using the device right now will definitely agree with me.
I'm not saying it has bad quality though... it's just compared to an iPhone, I love the iPhone's more 'cinematic' feel to the videos more. But, I do appreciate the 3x, and 5x zoom more on S24 Ultra.
S24 ultra completely destroys any other phone in terms of day to day usability, features, customization. One UI is almost intimidating how many options and quality of life perks it has you would not belive and there's also samsung store with apps like good lock or good guardians which is just bonkers
I hope Samsung catches up with the iPhone's incredible speakers. The iPhone has consistently had better speakers than its Galaxy counterpart, and as someone who watches a lot of content on his phone, it is quite noticeable. Also, they definitely need to add a native LOG option and similar raw capabilities for video. That's something they could do with an update, at least for the S24 series, because some other Android flagships with the same SoC already do it.
You can shoot LOG with apps like ProShot, but some say it is not true LOG, and the S24 Ultra's hardware is definitely capable of shooting LOG and RAW simultaneously.
iPhone speakers are better but do not last longer. Mine stopped working in merely 2.5 years . iPhone 12 Pro Max user. Over heating issue. 5g is shit on this phone. Will switch to 24 ultra. Hope it keeps me happy unlike the s10 plus did
@@1993rufus I hope it does, I am still on making a choice between the 15 pro max and S24U. Honestly I switched from a Samsung s10 plus to an IPhone 12 Pro Max just because I used to to play hardcore PUBG mobile and IPhone used to be optimised for it. Nowadays this phone is just crap it will heat and stop working on a normal summer day if you’re not in ac temperatures. Another thing my main speaker has stopped working, no water damage nothing. Last but not the least the battery health is at 79 and literally very less backup and performance. My reason now for switching to an S24U would be that I know longer play any hardcore games on my Mobile phone except Pokemon unite since I bought a console and hardly get time to play games. I like the feel of the S24U and the size it has to offer in terms of watching content on it. Spen, no idea how useful it is however still an extra feature that I am happy to have on my phone. Camera zoom and macro lenses. Battery performance. Reason for choosing IPhone: Good video camera. International warranty. Better resale value. The look is almost similar to the 12 pro max nothing new there. Dynamic Island is not my thing since I had a in display punch hole design in my S10 plus. No reverse wireless charging on IPhones.

Why everyone is comparing iphones to S24Ultra? It's not the same league, compare it to S24 or S24 Plus, because S24U is another (higher) level, that phone does not have competition.
Delusional apple fanboy spotted :D there are many Android phones more expenaive than any iphones, especially Samsung Ultra series, and if you call tthat a budget phone, you must be retarded, which would not actually aurpriae me, since every iDiot is retarded xD
I always say that Apple and Samsung make the best cameras. Both phones are amazing. I'm waiting for the S25 Ultra 5G. I own the S21 Ultra 5G. A great video brother.
Is this the first review of after 3 month ?? What you guys doing right now explaining same things again and again rather then comparing before and after update and look at your title and thumbnail su*k
Thank you so much was thinking about the switch from samsung z flip 4 to iphone 15 pro max but after seeing ur video made my choice even easier I miss my samsung s 23 I hate the z flip 4 thank u so much

Do you even Know how complex the Samsung Ecosystem is? Nearly everything in your home can connect together. Even a Microwave for example
@@gojo4808 A lot of people love and use and talk about Samsung Ecosystem and i could totally buy and use a Galaxy Watch or Galaxy Tab but i don't like tablets and i love mechanical watches. I have had iPad and Galaxy Tab in the past: it's not for me. I use my iPhone with a Windows 💻, a Nothing Phone(1), my Bose QC45.
My phones are the devices i always first: MAIN device.
Full brand ecosystem will always be a "nice to have" for me. I just compare phones and only phones together.
😑feeling superior because they have Apple ecosystem or because they don't consider Samsung ecosystem, you're a shame. Some people just live in their own bubble: ridiculous🤨
When iPhones has flaws like overheating people is hush hush to prevent bad marketing. Yet, the reverse, people will lose their minds. That should tell you about the company and people that uses them.
FACTS
For real
Its a phone💀 not that deep
@@heyhey067 you're an idiot, not a sheep. Yes, we know, it's not that deep. It's also not that complicated to understand
yeah, how many years already and their pro max still has complaints on overheating lol...
Came to the 15 Pro Max from the 11, and before that, the Note 4. Now looking for the first opportunity to get back to Samsung. I've grown blind to how much I miss android after being with IOS for so long. Here's my personal list of reasons for the switch: I hate waiting on apple's animation, even with motion dialed down. I also hate waiting for apps to finish doing something instead of them being able to run in the background. I also prefer android keyboards, customization, T9 dialer, speed dial, cursor movement, no swiping after screen unlock, home screen setup, file management, text copying, back button, home screen layout, ultra fast charging, in-app settings, in-app notification settings, notifications, widgets, google assistant, ultra low power mode, scheduled text messages, dex, and higher screen brightness for bright sunny days. The only thing I could see myself missing about my iphone is native encrypted messaging, but the use case for me is limited. Can't wait to switch back to android.
This is a great list and super impactful stuff I use weekly if not daily that sets Samsung apart. I wish more people talk about these.
Only reason I switched to iPhone from pixel was the Apple Watch Ultra 2, there just isn’t any competition yet unfortunately. Otherwise I would definitely run back to android easily. I have an s9 ultra and I scratch my android crave on that beast of a tablet
@@Harsh_Da_Great ??? I literally use android devices daily??? ur trippin fool
S24 ultra as I'm using it
Same here , upgraded from fold 4 and i like samsung products just like fan boys like apple.
Me too! I had an iPhone XR for about 5 years! I just upgraded to a Samsung S24 Ultra 3 days ago & i love it
Love both phones. They are both great. Have both and it’s hard to decide which one to use.
You definitely have 2 partners 😃
@@stinga_😂😂😂😂
Great video, it's all about personal requirements. I have been an iPhone user since the X. This year I picked up the s24 as a fun phone. Instantly fell in love with where android is today and I was having fun again. Every year iPhone to iPhone felt the same, upgrading didn't have any excitement anymore. My 14 pro max felt the same as my 15 pro max. I ended up selling my 15 pro max and haven't looked back. Googles ecosystem has come a long way!
Did the same with my 15 PM. Loving the S24 U, only thing I really miss is iMessage.
I agree 💯
Just came across your video, excellent job. June 10th bought a new iPhone 15 Pro Max and today, June 15th i’m taking back to my carrier and switching to a Samsung S 24 ultra. Had always been a Samsung user in the past thought I would try the iPhone out, for me a big mistake. BTW I love your wallpaper and icon pack.!
The CINEIMATICS ARE NEVER LEVEL. YOU ARE SUCH A GROWN MAN
😂🤣 grow up Kevin!!! Thank you for commenting on my videos!
Never level. Grown man (for making a nice video)
None of this makes sense.
Where is your s24 ultra wallpaper from ?
The brand loyalty from these channels is insane.
I normally have both the Ultra and Pro Max phones together but this year I couldn't. For work I'd use the iPhone and for the weekends the Samsung. My Company has now pushed into an Apple ecosystem where we have everything Apple now. Even my dog has an AirTag. Sticking with the iPhone 15 Pro Max for a while, it's such a solid device. Plus I have an external hard drive (for Log video), MagSafe accessories at my house, in my car and at work.
How do you have both at the same time? Two separate numbers?
@@StewHeisenberg I was about to ask the same thing lol because I plan on getting both of those Phones soon
Intro on point !
I’m not really a fan of Samsung multitasking. I don’t really find it that useful. What I missed more than anything from iPhone was the ability to quick swipe on the bottom of the screen to quickly swipe back-and-forth between screens. That’s simple ultrafast gesture I found more useful than any multitasking on android. I missed it so much.
You can still do that on Samsung phones! I used it all the time before changing to iOS, honestly gestures work basically the same on both phones with the exception of there not being a universal return gesture on iOS
5:18 that shot of the iPhone is crazy! Apple really is top tier when it comes industrial and software design
This video points out kinda deciding factors. It's up to a user what you prefer these days. However, I think iphone being unable to do tasks and be as compact device of all the features and such for their prices is a crime ar this stage. I'm on iphone 15 pro max and I always complain about the iOs which compared to android is prehistoric. However. As said here, it's still a great phone for different type of users, so everyone can find their own field whether choosing iphone or Samsung.
iPhones are great for pro photographers/videographers and content creators. Samsung is better for office/business/IT related use.
Thanks for not being biased!! All the factors stated are well explained and targeted correctly. Well done brother ❤❤❤ Love from India
Thanks a ton!!
I've been iphone for years. Swapped to 24U last week. Main thing i hate is trying to send pictures and videos to anyone with iphone. Might swap back just for this reason.
Don't switch back yet, with ios 18 apple is finally adopting rcs messaging meaning texting is better and picture quality sent between phones are full quality. You can get imessages anyways on android using blue bubbles (watch a video) and it works perfectly. I switched the z fold 5 after being a lifetime ios user and I couldn't be more happy.
The fact that almost no 'Tech Reviewer' was even dead serious about the massive Overheating and Battery Issues, on first, the 14 Pro Max and then now on the 15 Pro Max tells you all you need to know about these people.
My own 14 Pro Max for the first 4-5 months was a pain in the ass to use.
The battery drained like crazy. iOS 16 had sooooooooooooo many bugs. It overheated whilst making calls on 5G, or watching anything [like TH-cam or Netflix].
Had the same issues with my Pixel 7 Pro as well.
But my S22 Ultra is the King.
Awesome Battery Life, crazy-fast snappy performance, no bugs or slowdowns whatsoever, [have 2-3 GoodLock Modules (Registart etc) that are permanently running in the background], no overheating, nothing.
But, everybody right up to MKBHD, railed against the Pixel 7 Series, but didn't utter a single word about the issues plaguing 14 Pros and 15 Pros.
Look, I'm not here to downplay Samsung-it's an impressive device with great specs on paper, and Android allows for more customization. But let's not ignore why Apple dominates year after year. It’s not just about hardware; it’s about the whole ecosystem. The way iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple Watch sync seamlessly is something Samsung can’t replicate. Not to mention, iOS is optimized for performance and simplicity, which is why it doesn’t need to overload on RAM just to keep up. Apple's focus on privacy and security is another reason people stick with it-some of us actually care about that. And when things do go wrong, Apple’s customer service and support are leagues ahead. So, sure, Samsung has its advantages, but don’t act like specs alone make it 'superior.' There’s a reason people keep coming back to iPhone, and it’s not because we’re clueless-it’s because the user experience just works
@@mikejack9733 I'd say 2 things in response.
Firstly, I didn't bring up the Spec Sheet.
Secondly, on the Ecosystem aspect, as someone who owns almost all Apple products since 2008-ish, I'd say Samsung is very, very close to Apple's Ecosystem.
Of course, Samsung has [like Apple] tried keeping some available only on Galaxy devices [like a Galaxy Book and Samsung Tab etc] but Phone Link and Quick Share work wonderfully. On any device [except for the latter].
I regularly 'AirDrop'/ aka Quick Share stuff between my S22 Ultra and XPS 13 Plus, and sometimes between my Gaming PC and the Samsung.
It works just as well.
Link Share is even better.
And Phone Link has been doing what Apple cannot do even now [like Phone Mirroring (which Apple is bringing now with iOS 18, when we've been doing that for more than 6-7 years if I'm not mistaken].
And as for the Services, it is just that Apple's Service Centers are more fancy ]and more widespread because of their market-share], but they're hella expensive anyways.
So, at least for me, whatever this Windows-Android Ecosystem is, it is on par with Apple's.
My Photos get Synced via Google Drive and Photos, my Notes with OneNote and Obsidian, and I use a Password-Manager, so there is literally nothing that gets left out.
@@mikejack9733very true. But I’ve been on iPhone for some time now, (6-6s-10xr-11-13-14pro and now 15 pro max. Everything between was android like gs8-note10-s22ultra) so I know both sides rather well, and iPhone is like the car that goes 100mph and zero fails. Android is like the car that goes 150mph but may need a mechanic once in a while. I love iPhone for photos and videos and just how well everything syncs together, but it gets so damn boring. iOS 18 may change that but I’m not downloading a beta that’s bug laden so I’ll wait for September to download the real one. But by then I may switch with my daughter who has the s24 ultra. Thankfully for me her friends mostly use iPhones and she may switch with me. Both systems have their pros and cons and if it was strictly cameras I’d stay with iPhone. But I want a bit more flexibility with android. I miss launchers and theme packs and icon customization. Not gonna lie I want the stylus again too.
Just a point for those who use tempered glass protectors: they will eliminate the anti-glare advantage and make the glass reflectivity similar to that of the other brands. This is a bad miss by Samsung, as many of us slap on a protector, and £1350 phones that are with us 24/7 need a case and protection unless you are rich.
Corning, which owns the anti-glare patent, is unlikely to allow this on tempered glass protectors, at least for the medium term, so that is a negative. Corning allowed Samsung to sell (very expensive) non-tempered screen protectors that help with scratches but are not as helpful for drops. Samsung bought an exclusive period for this feature and that is now over, so we are likely to see many OEMs use this next year.
How is 3rd party usage of tempered glass screen protector a miss on samsungs side
You are paying 1300$ for a phone you should be able to spring for the anti reflective screen protector no?
Samsung doesn't buy exclusive periods.
They own shares in corning. That's why it's a core of their display tech
@@wHyNoTCaTs-ef4yh@wHyNoTCaTs-ef4yh It's a miss as if you buy a tempered glass screen protector, you lose the anti-glare feature. Samsung should have thought about this. It means my S24U with a tempered glass protector does not have the anti-glare! Maybe Samsung wants us to go naked for more smashed screens? But it is a mistake. Hopefully, a solution will arrive.
@@andyH_England there's an anti glare screen protector.
U don't have to smash your device lol
To me samsung is doing something different and amazing
While other brands are becoming lazy an way too comfortable cough apple
@@wHyNoTCaTs-ef4yhThe anti-glare screen protector from samsung is straight ass, it's not even glass.

Mark, are you going to check on the Huawei Pura 70Ultra? I'm eager to see your take on this phone especially the camera. Great content as always.
I'm trying to get my hands on one, but it's finding impossible to get it here in the US. Maybe when I get a chance to go to Europe/Asia, I'll have better luck!
@@HeyMarkL I, really hope you get your hands on one, though. I read online from China, it went outta stock in one minute, that's insane. I'm patiently waiting for it, you'd eventually get one of those phones.
Be Safe and
Stay Healthy, Mark..🙏🏾
I shoot video on iPhones and edit them in Lumafusion. They are sending me a Galaxy S24 on a 7 day trial so I can see if the video features/output work better for my purposes. But here you seem to be saying that despite the 200 megapixel camera on Samsung, you prefer the iPhone for video content creators. Do you have a video where you cover your video editing process?
Amigo, que tal te fue en la prueba con el s24? me encanta samsung, pero me traba lo de la creacion de contenido a la hora de elegir entre el s24 ultra y 15 pro max
Hands down the pro max has better cameras for video for sure. But I’m so tired of iPhone not having everything android has is the only reason I want to switch. If it was strictly a camera or filming decision I would stay with iPhone. If you want freedom of expression and just overall more options I would go Samsung. I don’t do crazy edits I just to basic stitching on iMovie. Or CapCut.
My wet dream is an iOS on a Galaxy S24 Ultra + splitscreen/pop-up window, clipboard, customizability (GoodLock level), no iMessage blue/green bubble BS, camera app (pro mode) and Samsung Notes.
I've never owned an iPhone before always been an android user. But, I'm going to try the iPhone out in September and see if I like it. I figure I should get the best that iPhone has to offer and I think that is the IPHONE 16 Pro Max
Nice review. Whats the name of your s24u icon pack Mark?
1:54 : where did you get that Background on 15 pro Max I must know?
that oneplus stock wallpaper
What camera is being used to film this video? Very high quality love it! I’m curious you should make a video on this
Love this review! Question about the luts you use with the Iphone...is there a site to purchase them?
Link is in the bio 🤙🏼
@HeyMarkL thanks and those grades are amazing. Perfect moods.
That titanium orange 👌🏾
It's actually a dbrand skin 👀
@@HeyMarkL no kidding.
Damn! @@HeyMarkL
Any differences when scrolling through social media apps? I mainly use my phone for that and prefer when it's fast and smooth scrolling through. I currently have iPhone 14 pro max.
Yeah, the inertia from iOS (where it feels like it’s rubbery towards the top and end of an animation) feels better on iOS than Android. But besides that, smooth sailing on the S24 Ultra. Everything is super snappy and fluid.
Another great video bro. Always enjoy your content 🔥
Appreciate it bro! Always great seeing your comment 🙏🏼
You said you'll focus more on the cameras because it'll be harder to compare the different OS and hardware. But isn't that what it's about? If the OS and hardware were almost the same, then I could see you saying it'd be harder to compare. All love.
When I say that, I mean that comparing Android to iOS and vice versa isn’t an easy topic to cover in one video. This will be a 30+ min video if I were to talk about every little thing about OS differences. I think at the point. If you’re searching up the Ultras and Pro Maxes you’re already aware of the differences in OS. Hardware/Design, I think S24U is better. But performance wise. Apple is still top dog. Thank you tho!
@HeyMarkL I got ya bro, I understand.
I don't care who has the best camera or is the fastest phone in benchmarks. Every flagship smartphone takes super pictures and video's and is blazing fast. 97% of all smartphone users don't even see the differences.
I'm a SMARTPHONE user so I want the best screen (dpi/brightness/anti-glare), best battery, best/most usablility and productivity options, best gaming- and multi-media experience, best personalization options and best innovation.
I want DEX, KNOX, S-PEN, call recording, multi-tasking, multi-window, fingerprint scanner, best screen, widgets, themes, integration with windows, the biggest eco-system (Samsung SmartThings), fast charging, fast wireless charging and I want AI.
On all these aspects the S24 Ultra is destroying the iphone 15 PM big time. So why keep people buying these antiquated, restricted and very very limited iphones?
Looks like people shooting movies on their iPhones using Apple Log 😂 I wish they would leave the links so we could enjoy their creations. Lol
So which one is better?
i left the house today and turned on youtube, liestening to clips and music videos the entire time NON STOP, the screen was never off, as i traveled to the gym, worked out, left and waited for hot food to be made, traveled home... at least 1.5 hours, maybe 2.... the phone used 9% battery
s24 ultra is RIDICULOUS
Still don’t understand the war between both camps.. A phone is still and will always be a personal preference. I had the S23 and just updated to the 15 Pro Max. Not because I prefer iPhone over Samsung. It’s just because iPhone is closer to my needs than Samsung (Interface-wise).
Both the 24 Ultra and the 15 Pro Max are beasts, it’s just all about the OS you prefer or in wich ecosystem you’re in..
Has anyone had issues on android when sending a texted the message you sent it still stays in the text message box so you gotta delete yourself?
Genuinely good review
Majority of you will say the S24 is a better phone yet majority of TH-camrs will use an iPhone 15 Pro Max as their main phone. 😂
Cause most of them use it for social media, people who make videos for their sogial media they need to getbthe iPhone
This guy gets it. If I wasn’t into content creation I’d probably use Xiaomi 14 Ultra as my daily or OnePlus Open.
Lol I am an esports gamer and I only use my iphone as it has a faster CPU. I am a travel vlogger. But i still went for oneplus 12 as it has faster charging, can almost do 80% tasks as my iphone can do. My viewers never saw my iphone because I barely use it. So yeah, another common excuse of hating iphone.
@@gojo4808 nonsense
@@HeyMarkL me? Or the comment 😂😭
The s24U cameras sound great and look good on paper, but in the real world the cameras always disappoint. I’ll always grab my 15PM over my s24U for pictures that really count. And the iPhone captures much better pics when there is any kind of motion, unlike the Samsung which still, after all these years cannot seem to address this issue.
Ya I've noticed that issue since the Note 20 Ultra. And I've tried the S21 Ultra, S22 Ultra, and S23 Ultra. Every photo I've taken indoors (and other low-light situations) has been blurry. Some people love the Samsung cameras, but I can never get consistent results with them.
It just makes me a little sad because I'm not a fan of iOS, but also can't seem to get a good overall experience on any Android phone I've tried in the last few years. Almost everything about the Samsung is great, except the camera is unreliable. The Pixel camera is great, but the fingerprint scanner and the wireless modem are terrible. Guess I'll keep my iPhone for a little longer.
I am getting hardly 4 hours SOT, only once I got 4.5 hours with power saving On being a medium user not a heavy user. Been using S 24 Ultra since 23rd January & updated to latest software
Use Light Profile in battery settings
@@drshardoolbandhu this setting is under Device Care, will try & see thanks
Hmm, weird. I'm always on Light Mode + FHD+. Very rare that I do QHD+. Could explain why yours is eating up battery a ton.
@@HeyMarkL umm what about if you put it on default profile?? My dad's s24 ultra drains 15 mins much faster than my iPhone 15 pro max. Any tips to get more battery life on Samsung??
🤣🤣🤣 sounds like my same experience with Samsung. I switched and got the 15 pro max, never had a better battery experience than this not once in the 14 years I spent with android. I had nearly every Samsung flagship and the battery was always trash, especially the S22 ultra (which is the phone that caused me to switch) I thought the S24 ultra was supposed to be better but I guess not. Glad I switched. Even on the “bad” days, I get 6-7hrs and on its best days, I can get almost 2 days out of this phone.
If your family and friends use Apple, I think your best option is to use Apple also. When it comes to cameras it doesn’t really matter. But I think Samsung is way more fun phone to use just because of the customization, and GalaxyAI is just great. But I think people should get the phone which your friends and family use.
Great video!
Fair point there. But the first one you mentioned “might change” when iOS18 and RCS becomes available. We’ll see!
@@HeyMarkL I was reading somewhere that they will improve Siri with AI, no idea if that’s true but if it is I’m not sure if that’s what I want though. Personally (if that is the case) I think that Samsung AI is a lot more handy. But we have to wait and see what iOS18 has to offer!
This is more relevant to the US because, for example, in Europe no one uses iMessage, using instead better alternatives like WhatsApp or Telegram.
@@MaximS-qg3co I use iMessage, I live in Sweden. iMessage is for family and Snapchat for friends.
Once my iphones started failing after "updates" i was done, never looked back. The gboard keyboard and google messages are nice af too. Used to love iOS, but android has def surpased it imo.
The unfortunate thing about phones is that there was a time when phones got thinner and lighter and that was a great thing. But now, the newest phone is much, much, much thicker and heavier than the phones I had 8 years ago. Now we have giant camera humps sticking out the back of the phone. The phone can't even lay flat on a table. And we're still saying that the design is amazing and "premium". But in the past, the giant ugly camera hump sticking a half inch out of the back was the ugliest thing in the world. I had a Note 8. It was really too big and wouldn't fit in my pocket. I felt like, I just can't go any bigger than this. Then I upgraded to the S23 Ultra and it is much bigger and heavier. It's the first time I've felt like, this thing is actually heavy in my hand. Like, if I hold it too long, I have to adjust my grip or something. I become aware that it's heavy in my hand. I think the iPhone is almost exactly the same.
I think I would like to have an iPhone. Samsung camera is never going to be good enough to me, and there are some things that simply never improve about the Samsung phones so I'd like to try an iPhone next. But, it's really hard to give up everything I like about the Galaxy phones.
Have u even see the s24 ultras camera?
Using that iPhone 15 pro max coming from s23 ultra I liked the ultra but switched to iPhone 15 pro max for my own choice. Both are winners I just prefer iOS especially when iOS 18 is around the corner. Android and apple users don’t be to harsh with each other lol
Bro where do you get your iOS wallpapers? And your videos are clean 🔥
All I know is I need to get away from Apple. Every single Apple I’ve had this last decade has given me nothing but trouble and stressful expense. Even after a recent battery replacement, I’m currently using a phone where nobody can hear me on calls 😢 at all! On any platform. The people who replaced my battery will not accept responsibility or refund me, and Apple are adamant nothing is wrong! I have health issues which require emergency calls and they don’t understand I don’t have the funds to just go and buy a new phone whenever I fancy it! This is a venting post, not a “Someone give me something” post 😅 before anyone starts 😅 I have so so so many more issues with Apple but I’m too physically and emotional exhausted at the moment to explain. All I know is this iPhone in my hand right now will absolutely be my last!
As for fast charging when you are out and about, I have a MagSafe Battery pack that I keep on for about 4-5 hours extra SOT. So I am looking forward to Samsung having Qi 2.0, which will allow that on the Galaxy S line. So I disagree that slightly faster charging is a big deal especially for top-ups, the convenience of MagSafe trumps that easily.
We have magsafe too! It's not built in like an iPhone but there are magsafe cases for all devices now. So we, too, can utilize wireless power banks! Samsung is more convenient because you can reverse wireless charge too!
@@1993rufus It is not Magsafe which is a trademark. It is simply a magnet in the case. Does not have software support either and that is why I mentioned that Qi 2.0 would be welcome as that opens up true Magsafe capability.
@@andyH_EnglandWhy do magnets need software support? 😂😂 Look, Samsung can't integrate magsafe because of the Spen, the magnets would mess charging and the connectivity it offers. What I'm saying is that, you can't say that only Apple has magnet wireless charging because there are options for us Android users to achieve the same thing, all we need is a case, nothing fancy or expensive! Reverse wireless charging is better than magnetic charging because there is no case or attachment that can allow your iPhone to Reverse wireless charge any device. You know how many times it has saved me at the gym to wireless charge my buds. 10 minutes give me enough juice for 1.5 hours gym time!
@@1993rufus The software allows for the optimisation of wireless charging so if you are doing something intensive it will restrict the charging to prevent overheating. Also, it allows support for an extended battery rather than just charging. That is pass-through charging before it drains the internal battery. That is why Magsafe has been a value-added feature for people like me who just slap it on and the iPhone uses the pack before it even touches the internal battery.
@andyH_England his example was still better. Android just does more
I've had Android phones my entire life, and then this past Christmas, I got an iPhone 14. I loved it up until the past couple of weeks (my battery capacity was draining quickly, most likely due to me being on beta updates). Then, this past Sunday, I went to AT&T and got the S24 Plus. However, part of me wants to go back to the iPhone. I did really enjoy it. I think part of me just wanted a better model (don't get me wrong, the 14 is an amazing model). I didn't like my camera zoom and wanted a better battery. Also, websites have better case offers for iPhones. If I had upgraded mine but stayed with the iPhone, I would have gotten either the 15 Plus or the 15 Pro. I feel like in school, especially, it's weird not to have an iPhone. It's almost like a social status, which pains me because I know there will be people who make fun of me. I think after my contract is done on this phone, I might switch back. The crazy thing is that I'm getting close to the same screen time as my iPhone 14, which had a 3279 mAh battery capacity, and this one has a 4900 mAh battery. That doesn't make sense at all, but I guess it comes down to the hardware of the phone.
I have both phones but I prefer my trusted iPhone and IOS. You can’t go wrong with Apple. However, I would like to add that I do love the Samsung S24 and I enjoy using it every day
Finally Iphone lost His thrones To Samsung .. Welcome to the new king Samsung
Nah
Nah
Nope buddy

Nobody ever mentions how bad iPhones are with direct sunlight work it is terrible was just in Cabo with the family and couldn’t use my phone 📱 at all because it was too hot.

took a trip out of state to somewhere hot and I had no issues on the 15 pro max
Hi Mark, can you drop the icon pack name on the S24U? Thanks!
Nova Dark!
I think if you have main mirrorless camera to shoot your main projects, and you use your phone just for additional content let's say Instagram reels and stories , apple pro res doesn't make a lot of sense here, nobody in Instagram would care about apple pro res quality, and it takes much longer to edit. And for real projects you use your main camera , which most of them i believe would be better than iPhone pro res. If you dont have a mirrorless camera iPhone 15 pro might make sense.
There is no difference between those two phones. The only reason to make a choise is you like ios or android. But when you buy iphone for ios, you should not al those android app download from the app store. So, no google, no gmail, no facebook, instagram etcetc
Salamat po sa comparison review Sir.
i would love to have S24 ultra but im going fr iphone 15 pro

1. its too big i like smol phones more ( i dont mind the battery life i dont use it much)
i wish we had a smol sized s24 ultra
2. regular S24 is an option but i have my doubts on exynos ( i live in Germany )
they are practically the same size, wtf are you talking about?
@@notimportant3686 not really if u check the sizes iphone 15 pro max and s24 ultra are the same size
but iphone 15 (which i said im rooting for) is the smaller one as small as the regular s24

wallpapers list please ?
S24 ultra has 16gb ram, are you kidding 😅 1:13
Is gaming smoothness and performance better on iphone than android?
Iphone is better
No point of argument. It is still a personal preference... I always have both. S22 and S23 ultras. I ended up with pink and green lines. Apple got no problems at all..
The Averge user dont care about pro log on the iPhone cos it takes alot of space and not anyone know all the processes it take to edit log videos so to me samsung is the win I prioritizes photos than video I only use snapchat for video which samsung is very well optimized for 🎉
I have both unlocked versions love them both!👍🏻
Plz make video on your s24u camera setting ....
People have s24u but they miss better settings for this results ,show on this video !!!
What kills the s24 ultra for me are the shutter speed issues.
Moving objects are still a major issue on samsungs for whatever reason since years.
Also a LOT of noise in the pictures.
Everything else is great but the camera is mid overall.
Oh hard agree on moving subjects. My only fix for it is to use pro mode which does fix it a bit but not all the time. Samsung needs a major revamp in cameras/sensors imo.
S24 ultra video quality is extremely good than the way Tech. reviewers talked about it.
I believed those using the device right now will definitely agree with me.
I'm not saying it has bad quality though... it's just compared to an iPhone, I love the iPhone's more 'cinematic' feel to the videos more. But, I do appreciate the 3x, and 5x zoom more on S24 Ultra.
Iam a person who only use watching movies and social media on phone which phone suits me any one plz??
I love seeing things i can't afford😀🤠
The S24 Ultra does not have 16 GB of RAM; it has 12 GB of RAM.
Everyone is entitled to a opinion .
Facts!
S24 ultra completely destroys any other phone in terms of day to day usability, features, customization. One UI is almost intimidating how many options and quality of life perks it has you would not belive and there's also samsung store with apps like good lock or good guardians which is just bonkers
I hope Samsung catches up with the iPhone's incredible speakers. The iPhone has consistently had better speakers than its Galaxy counterpart, and as someone who watches a lot of content on his phone, it is quite noticeable. Also, they definitely need to add a native LOG option and similar raw capabilities for video. That's something they could do with an update, at least for the S24 series, because some other Android flagships with the same SoC already do it.
You can shoot LOG with apps like ProShot, but some say it is not true LOG, and the S24 Ultra's hardware is definitely capable of shooting LOG and RAW simultaneously.
iPhone speakers are better but do not last longer. Mine stopped working in merely 2.5 years . iPhone 12 Pro Max user. Over heating issue. 5g is shit on this phone. Will switch to 24 ultra. Hope it keeps me happy unlike the s10 plus did
@KazuyaII you'll love the S24U! Samsung has done wonders with the S24 line!
@@1993rufus I hope it does, I am still on making a choice between the 15 pro max and S24U. Honestly I switched from a Samsung s10 plus to an IPhone 12 Pro Max just because I used to to play hardcore PUBG mobile and IPhone used to be optimised for it. Nowadays this phone is just crap it will heat and stop working on a normal summer day if you’re not in ac temperatures. Another thing my main speaker has stopped working, no water damage nothing. Last but not the least the battery health is at 79 and literally very less backup and performance.
My reason now for switching to an S24U would be that I know longer play any hardcore games on my Mobile phone except Pokemon unite since I bought a console and hardly get time to play games. I like the feel of the S24U and the size it has to offer in terms of watching content on it. Spen, no idea how useful it is however still an extra feature that I am happy to have on my phone. Camera zoom and macro lenses. Battery performance.
Reason for choosing IPhone:
Good video camera.
International warranty.
Better resale value.
The look is almost similar to the 12 pro max nothing new there.
Dynamic Island is not my thing since I had a in display punch hole design in my S10 plus.
No reverse wireless charging on IPhones.
@@1993rufus Look, I'm not here to downplay Samsung-it's an impressive device with great specs on paper, and Android allows for more customization. But let's not ignore why Apple dominates year after year. It’s not just about hardware; it’s about the whole ecosystem. The way iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple Watch sync seamlessly is something Samsung can’t replicate. Not to mention, iOS is optimized for performance and simplicity, which is why it doesn’t need to overload on RAM just to keep up. Apple's focus on privacy and security is another reason people stick with it-some of us actually care about that. And when things do go wrong, Apple’s customer service and support are leagues ahead. So, sure, Samsung has its advantages, but don’t act like specs alone make it 'superior.' There’s a reason people keep coming back to iPhone, and it’s not because we’re clueless-it’s because the user experience just works
Why everyone is comparing iphones to S24Ultra? It's not the same league, compare it to S24 or S24 Plus, because S24U is another (higher) level, that phone does not have competition.
As a S24 Ultra user, man are you serious? Let me tell you iphone has the upper hands in the essential details like battery camera performance etc
@@gigamoment And by this I already know you are iphone user.
@@n8n8n8n nice! You got me mate! Now listen, I own the most expensive android smartphone currently in the market. S24 Ultra 1TB.
Higher league? It’s a cheap budget phone 😂😂😂 why would any iPhone user downgrade to that
Delusional apple fanboy spotted :D there are many Android phones more expenaive than any iphones, especially Samsung Ultra series, and if you call tthat a budget phone, you must be retarded, which would not actually aurpriae me, since every iDiot is retarded xD
Those widgets at 5:25 how can i get them? Haha
Great video
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks so much.
I always say that Apple and Samsung make the best cameras. Both phones are amazing. I'm waiting for the S25 Ultra 5G. I own the S21 Ultra 5G. A great video brother.
And the s24 ultra also comes with a green tint my screen is still not good with Grey background you will see green spots
Been Team Samsung since the galaxy s3 days and Team Samsung I stay. Galaxy phones have always been levels above iPhones.
Yes the CPU is a bit faster on the iPhone, but the GPU is faster on the Samsung.
Sold my 15 pro max and bought a Oneplus 12. I like the OnePlus wayyyy more.
iPhone 15 pro max is clear still
I love my new S24 ultra 😍 ❤❤❤❤❤
Try Honor magic 5 pro or 6 pro.
Is this the first review of after 3 month ?? What you guys doing right now explaining same things again and again rather then comparing before and after update and look at your title and thumbnail su*k
Damn would love to see you make a *better* video and create a thumbnail that don’t suck. Tag me.
I'm just gonna get the 16 pro and keep my note 10 plus as well
Samsung and iphone are like uncle and nephew.
My 24 Ultra the best
Thank you so much was thinking about the switch from samsung z flip 4 to iphone 15 pro max but after seeing ur video made my choice even easier I miss my samsung s 23 I hate the z flip 4 thank u so much
Had iPhone for the last 3 years and it's just boring. There was zero excitement thinking about getting the 15 pro max. IPhone is just boring.
The video on the iPhone is not better than the 24 😂😂😂😂
S24 ultra I'm use already next level phone
S24 Ultra is my choice coz samsung is leaving apple behind in every department with time and soon it will also be the king of videos🙌🏼👑
samsung s24 ulta clear winner
iPhone still overheats when using camera
No it doesn’t
Uhhhh haven’t experienced that one!
There was one update that caused that, but on the current iOS 17.5 beta that is not an issue.
Oh my God. Another camera comparison
haha what else do you want the video to be though??? We've seen plenty of "performance comparison" on TH-cam
The S24 ultra is still the best of all
That's my next phone
Me need both of them 😊
Ferreira vs Lamborghini
Porsche or Mercedes vs Lamborghini
More like Bentley vs Nissan with the way Apple is now 😂
I prefer Google Android open ecosystem 💯👌👍
To tell you the truth their are better phones out their than both of these step into the foldable market
