The battle between Iphones and android phones seems really meaningless. People compare just specs and performance which might be similar. But the most important things are much deeper. For instance, I am from Bulgaria, EU. Everywhere in Europe the iphone costs much more than in the USA, and I mean not even close. The iphone 13 pro is 1200 euro at least. Here, nobody is using Facetime, imessege or all the other functions for full apple experience. Europe is much more based on using Android and Windows features. For example in most of the countries Whatsapp, Facebook messenger, Viber are the top used communication apps, Chrome is the browser, Gmail is the email provider, we use microsoft office pack and so on. Most of the apps in my country are based on Android. This means that buying an Iphone means buying it for the cameras, which are not the best for sure, and for the apple logo itself.
Pixel 6 pro doesn't suport wifi and Volte în EastEurope. After using 3 iterations of Pixel phone I switched to IPhone 13 pro, Pixel 6 Pro and finally 13 Pro Max. Pixel 6 pro seems to be like beta product. Build quality isn't The Best, especially compare to the iphone. Call quality îs Best to none on IPhone. And yes I do miss the customisation of android but also got tired to wait for next update to fix the issues. To sum it up if you want a quality experience phone, camera, battery build IPhone has it all. That is coming from and Android user.
I’m curious for anybody outside of America, would you all buy iPhones and other apple devices if they were priced the same as they are in the US? ($699 for the mini 799 for the 13, $999 for the pro 1099 for the pro max)
@@lifeisshørt_420, don't get me wrong. A lot of people are using apple devices, I can say probably 30% in Eastern Europe, 50% in Western and even more in Scandinavia. For me personally, I would have probably used macbook, but I am working as a lawyer and most of the government online systems are not working very well on mac. In fact, the macbook became much cheaper during the last 2 years. As it comes to the Iphones - No. Put aside that Android "customization", but Android really offers a lot of useful functions, which I am really used to.
It’s funny, I switched from the S20 to the 13 pro and I thought the charging speed was very similar to quick charge with the right power brick. Also, the battery life is the best I’ve ever had in a smartphone and it’s not even close. Sounds like there might be some background processes to turn off or a software reset needed.
@@andrewsclafani4202 yep mine lasts about two days and i charge it for 1 hour once in two days. He is just being salty cause he is used to his chinese garbage phones that charges to 100 in 10 mins and then the battery blasts in your face when your using it lmao android are so bad like smh who tf would even buy that crap
@@maddeningmonk9585 Fast charging isn't bad for the phone battery. Most phones will charge rapidly and safely up until the critical 80% mark, and then they'll charge slower to 100%. CNET: Fast-charging batteries work in two phases. The first phase applies a blast of voltage to the empty or nearly empty battery. This gives you that blazing charge of from 50% to 70% in the first 10, 15 or 30 minutes. That's because during the first phase of charging, batteries can absorb a charge quickly without major negative effects on their long-term health. You know how it seems to take as long to fill up that last 20% or 30% of the battery as it does to charge the first 70% or 80%? That last part is the second charging phase, where phone-makers have to slow down and carefully manage the charging speed or else the charge process actually could damage the battery.
Nice review as always. Great job! I've been eyeing the 13 Pro since it was released but can't afford it now. It is one of the best in the market now and would be a great buy since it could last you for 5 yrs or more. They upgraded everything compared to last year's series and it is a great patch direction.
Thanks for the help Drew, I called last week as this will be my first smartphone and I don't have a choice I still use my 3G🤷 and I still would if the FCC wasn't paid off, I was told it's 50$ mth no interest and they will come to the house and help me learn how to use it? Other option is Motorola edge also 256 storage and costs 499$ tax and case but I would have to put it on my AMX card and while we always intend to pay off early shit happens and we get stuck paying it off for a couple years, but I doubt if the Android 11 will last 5 years? This is a bull 💩 expense that is a forced upgrade according to FCC rules and just like the digital TV they should somehow compensate us in$ to make the move!
Been a Samsung user for so long and never thought I’d switch to an iPhone again, last one I used was the iPhone 4 but been so tempted to switch over to the Apple ecosystem and so glad I did, alpine Green pro max with the green leather case is 🔥🔥
Yeah that's the problem with Android and ios fanboys... They can't accept that other os can also be good..... Im the Android user i like ,.... The customisation but i like the Cameras of iPhone
True. Apple fanboys think android is trash and android fanboys think iOS is trash. But in my opinion, it doesn't matter. The best phone out there need not be the best one for us. Both iOS and Android have their own set of pros and cons, and it totally depends on which set we are fine with.
@@bharadwaj_routhu end of day, both fanboys are buying 1000 dollar phones to use social media apps lol....it's like buying Ferrari to drive in new York or London, it's pointless.
We are at the point where it doesn’t matter what you chose you won’t miss out much on either side anymore. The only reason I’m still on iOS is the exclusive creative apps for workflow
As a guy who likes to jump back and forth, I'll agree with him mostly on iphones. Love the build quality and camera (I'm not a photographer type, so the basic interface is actually preferable to me). I do tend to get more "glued" to my Android phones, as the os is just more robust and fun to play with. But there's something I like about the simplicity of iOS. When I do switch over to apple, I tend to spend less time on screen, and use the phone for the basics like calling, texting, TH-cam, and some fb scrolling. I enjoy both experiences, as different as they may be. Hell, sometimes I even like switching to a dumb phone for a couple months, and just open my laptop for the entertainment stuff... I'm all over the place with phones. Love'em all.
You sound just like me man. I laugh at people fighting over Android vs iOS etc. I love them both. I am too much of a cheater to remain loyal to just one OS. hehe.
@@adamlevine2046 Same here. I use a Note 10 plus as personal phone and my company gave me an iphone 11 for work. Love both platforms for different reasons. I prefer my Note screen, camera and flexibility and love iphone smoothness and graphic design . I think it's a tie unless you are a slave to iMessage or specific apps available only on either one.
Just switched to an iPhone 13 Pro from a Samsung Note 20 Ultra. Night and day difference, the battery life in my experience was far better than how you described. I've been going to bed at night with over 50% left with moderate to heavy use. (I did make setting changes to help and they've made a noticeable difference) It's the fastest phone I've ever used and feels even faster when you turn down the animations between apps. It's very impressive. If you care about benchmark scores then run a test against the best Android device and the difference is substantial. Way better than the S21 Ultra both with CPU and GPU scores. If you can get past the customization of Android it's a no brainer to switch to this iPhone, it's a beast. I was a heavy Nova launcher user and an android user for years prior and (so far) don't regret anything about making the switch to iOS. The widgets are better and just using the phone with regular apps like Instagram and Snapchat is a far superior experience.
Slow charging , cannot sideload apps, no fingerprint (lol) , no picture in picture for basic apps like maps, no type C . No reverse charge to charge earphones when needed. And you pay premium price for it. Very funny.
@@ashrit2753 better camera, better battery, smoother phone, faster phone, more premium phone, better face id, stronger phone, better supported phone, more durable over the years!
@@ashrit2753 I never used reverse charging, I rarely used picture in picture, Face ID works miles better than the finger print sensor on the Note I had, and the battery is more than good enough to last me a full day so I don't need to worry, also I drive a lot and the phone is hooked up to my car and provides more than enough charge. 😂 Everybody's needs are different and so far the iPhone is FAR superior in terms of performance, feel and quality than the flagship Samsung I had. Camera is on another level too.
I did the same switch and damn, this phone is a beast. Battery life is the best out of all phones out there… + I was using galaxy watch 4 and damn these are terrible (laggy and have a lot of bugs - apps crashing and not working properly..) I switched to iPhone 13 Pro and apple watch 7 and it was super good decission. I also have to mention that I have an iPad and the way that these work together is just mindblowing😎🥳
Just got my 13 Pro Max yesterday after using a Note for the last 5 months. It's a great phone but it's so boring compared to Android customization. I'm deep into the Apple ecosystem so the Company bought a bunch of us the 13 Pro Max. My son is using the Note now and he's raving how great the 1440 2K screen, split screen and the pen is. May keep the Note to use on weekends.
As a primary iPhone user I 100% agree at 1:58 starting w the iPhone 12 series. a gel case or any case fixes this. I actually bought the pro instead of the pro Max this year bc I feel like the annoyance would be less with a light weight phone.
I was an android user as well, the only reason I switched to iPhone is because FaceTime is not available in android. Android was not very user-friendly towards elderly at least those early versions so I had to buy apple products for them and forced to switch to iPhone myself. Have to say that apple marketing strategy was very good.
Had 12 pro max last year. From android since 2011. Amazing how reliable this phone is. Batt life is among the best despite the smaller capacity. Just got tired of android - I guess I just needed a new playground and i love it! Customization and modding just got tiring over the years as we mature. Of course, there are some apps that run only android especially the geeky advanced ones but the android phone at home can take that :) For sure, my daily driver for the the next few years. Just the right amount of minimalism i needed in a phone.
iphoines are boring just by watching videos about them, they have boring events, lack of innovation and they are expensive for what they offer. Also you cannot do anything in ios system, you can after jaibreak + warranty loss, but hey, whatever fits your n eeds.
The only decision I made before jumping to Apple after a decade with android & windows is not about specs. It all comes down if I want freedom and flexibility with gadgets or data privacy and seamless ecosystem
To this day, i do not regret switching from android to iOS. I was an android boy for years. I had a note 3, s6 active, s7 edge, note 8. all of which over time started to lag, freeze, and get overly hot. So that’s when i decided to try apple and see if i noticed any difference. and after owning a brand new iPhone XR for 2 years, it didn’t change at all except battery life, which is understandable. the battery health is at 87%. I will admit, near the 2 year mark, and after iOS 15 came out, i noticed it did start to struggle playing high intensive games, but it was after 2 whole years. not 6 months which all of the androids i owned did. the only thing i miss about android is the customization, but then again, i like the simplicity of iOS. i recently upgraded to the iPhone 13 pro max, and i absolutely love this phone. the battery life is insane, the performance is incredibly, the phone itself is gorgeous. I don’t think i’ll ever go back to android, ever.
@@slayer5097 given that i now have an iphone 13, i think i’ll pass. however, my dad bought at s22 ultra and he loves it. maybe one day i’ll go back to android, but for now i’m sticking with iOS.
@@craz7644 using them. i use to play high intensive games regularly so perhaps that’s what made them lag, but regardless, they were all trash. iOS/iphone hasn’t ever given me problems with games.
@@b58.soupra i play literally all heavy games like a9,pubg,cod,GI,A8,etc....but still mine is just 300$..and i have like 60 to 70 apps in it, it's still runs fine as day 1 just the battery life was not as good when i first bought it
I have been on the fence of leaving my android(samsung galaxy s20+) and getting the 13pro max for about 4 months now, but decided I can't let go of my finger print scanner and customization that let's me use my phone efficiently for my lifestyle. Maybe one day lol..... Good review! 👍🏽
You're the only reviewer I've heard say you like the weight of the iphone13. Thanks for that,I like heavy phones and was wondering if something was wrong cause most other reviews complain about the weight.i just ordered a 13 pro,should arrive any day now,I'm switching from an galaxy S9. Realised I don't mess about with my phone much so looking forward to the iPhone simplicity.
I've used iphone before, and I realized iphone experience and ecosystem thing can be created on Android, but android experience cannot be created on iphone. As long as it supports apps I use, I'm android user.
I have used both. I love Android for its customization. You can literally change the whole look and feel with your phone with a launcher. Also when I had my android phone I was able to download an AOD app, which I can’t do with iPhone. But I am an iPhone user. I have been for many years. But I recognize the strengths of Android. Neither OS is perfect. But I am an Apple user, and I always will be, but I do like Android and would buy an Android phone to have as a secondary phone.
I am an Indian and really sad that google didn't officially launched the pixel 6 series. I really liked the Pixel 6, if it were to launch here I would have bought it on day one.
@@billjamal4764 higher tax from govt makes phones expensive in India and most Indians want VFM products so chineese companies provide it in cheaper price that's why pixel sales is very low here
@@TheAshuV if google starts a manufacturing division in India just like Samsung, etc then the price can match that of US markets. Hope it happens soon cause I really enjoy stock Android and it's a shame we don't get pixel here.
Using both Android and iPhone. On Android, the photo quality is still a hit or miss on non-pixel phones and the battery optimization is still not as good as iOS. Despite having larger battery capacity, it drains just as fast, so, not much of a difference. On the iPhone side, the lack of fingerprint scanner is one of the most annoying issue since face unlock won't work while wearing a mask. And the option to sideload apps. A few months ago, I needed an App (with no alternatives) for work. The publisher removed their official app, so, it was no-go on the iPhone while on Android, I managed to sideload it with no issues. Same goes for the emulator since I love retro games more than current mobile ones.
GameCube and many other emulators run better on iPhone (ps2 is still better on android cause of aethersx2 and play not being that good on iPhone although it is improving) and android has 3ds and iPhone doesn’t at the moment
Should see how Star Wars roque squadron 2 runs. It’s 60 frames with barely a dip to 54 frames on iPhone and android it struggles on 30-40 frames on most android and with top androids struggling to get to 60 and stay they dip right away to 30-40
Thanks for this! ☺️ I changed from 12 Pro Max last year for the Pixel 6 Pro. Main reason was for the Pixel camera which in my opinion, is way better than what my 12 Pro Max was. I would love to go back to Apple this year, and buy the 14 Pro, however, even with the new 48mp wide camera lens on 14 Pro/Max, I can't see it coming up to this year's forthcoming Pixel 7 Pro. It's a bit frustrating, because I prefer ios and the iPhone build, fab phones operating wise, if only they could keep up with other cameras in 2022! 🤷 I am keeping my eyes on specs now, and I would LOVE Apple to SURPRISE me regarding the cameras this year, then I'd go back in a millisecond! 🙂🇬🇧
The biggest issue with iPhone after Android is that I can't install TH-cam Vanced in iPhone. For me, it's very important. Also, iPhone's screen recorder app just sucks.
You can do it with Altstore on ios. But it takes some extra steps (a pc)for the first setup. Its not geeky though, you can do it. Sidenote, for people who like messing around , look in ios shortcuts. Its not “customization” but its fun and add extra “features” to your iphone usability.
@@zajizjaz I tried every similar apps and they are all garbage lol, it's not even close to TH-cam vanced ...this app for me is more important than iMessage and every app social media apple has.
@@Iwipemyasswithpalestianflag i bought the 13pro max recently i guess not being able to install YT vanced and seeing all those ads etc couldve been a HUGE no for me but ive been using youtube premium for 4 years now
Ye something isn’t right I own 2 iPhone 13 pro max and the batteries are beyond insane 😳. Even every single test so far has shown the same as well so 🤷♂️
I went on a date with a girl and when she saw I don't use an iphone she tried to insinuate I was broke or couldn't afford it. I simply replied, I prefer android in general for the most part. I miss my Sony XZ premium.
Long exposure is available on iPhone. If you capture image in live mode, you can later go to photos, select the photos, on upper left side tap the live and tap long exposure.
LONG time Android user here. Like 12 years. I had an iPhone back when data and talk/text were separate in phone plans. ANY way, I just wanted to say that I recently switched from the S20+ to the 13 Pro Max and I miss the android platform SO much. The iPhone is gorgeous and the camera is beautiful but I can't seem to fall in love with it, despite it having such a good battery and few other small perks. Definitely switching back when I'm done paying the iPhone off but it's been an experience for sure.
I just got my first iPhone (13 pro max) and right away I was horrified to find out there’s no back button and I can’t arrange the icons to my liking. Coming from a Note 10+, I feel like I downgraded. This thing will be going back after my trial period for a s22 Ultra.
@@Majick427 I know, it sucked. My thumb didn't reach across the screen to swipe back or hit the back button at the top corner. With Samsung your can choose to swipe from the right or left side of the screen. I ended up taking the iphone back and getting the 22 Ultra. Only thing I miss about the iphone was the battery life, but the fast charging of the 22 Ultra makes up for it.
One thing to praise the iPhone 13 pro max is definitely the battery. My s20+, I charged it to 100 and goes to sleep next morning it drops to 83%. I just switched to an iPhone 13 pro max, went camping last weekends, Friday till Sunday with little usage I still have around 65% when I got home Sunday afternoon
@@unknowncode5566 iPhone still has the best battery out of any phone at the moment. And that’s saying something since they used to be notorious for battery drain. Sounds like you got a little defensive when he pointed out the s20+ battery drain
I switched from galaxy to iPhone 13 pro. There’s a lot I miss, I was upset for months but I’m finally getting use to the features that I really enjoyed on galaxy being gone. I switched for the camera and lost everything else.
Hi, I also recently switched from android to iPhone 13pro, and I also miss the little which we can do easily in the android like saving a photo to gallery. In iPhone it doesn’t save the picture to our local file system although you can see the picture. But, you need to download it manually to our local files. Overall I am loving the iPhone and you channel. #keepItUp
The Photos/Gallery thing also surprised me, but I'm also not seeing photos from Whatsapp and similar random places in my Photos which was annoying on Android. I've been rocking 13 Pro as my first iPhone for month and a half now :)
@@mahfudz5077 there are thousands of things that you will basically miss- customisation, privacy, hardware tweaking, modding hardware, file manager ( for docs, photos and every basic requirement) multi tasking, ( if you are coming from a note than you will really miss spen if you have used it) etc etc. iPhone is just a basic phone with everything done basically well, not for pratical use. Latest iphones are the best till they don't have a newer model, but once they get old, they will lack basic features.. old iphones are just unusable... Android is the best....
Recently bought the iPhone 13 from the Samsung galaxy s10. This is my first ever iPhone. Two days in and I’m loving it so far. Very smooth and easy to use. Love Samsungs but I can’t believe I didn’t switch sooner
The hardest thing for me is the ios Gallery App. I have switched vom a S10 to a 13Pro. The ios Gallery is so unorganized. In Android there is for everything a folder: pictures, downloads, screenshots and all the ather App like 9gag or Facebook. On ios there is only on big mess.
ios has been having folders for like literally everything you said a screenshot folder and if u got photos from twitter or facebook or anything it makes a seperate folder for it
I just got the 13 pro max and it is by far the best phone i have ever used. I came from an s20 fe and the switch from an exynos 990 to an a15 bionic was an unreal experience. The best thing is that everything just works as expected and the high refresh rate is amazing. I have ios 15.3 beta and it’s definitely a noticeable improvement in terms of the high refresh rate. I strongly recommend this phone and it’s absolutely fantastic. Great video btw keep the great analysis up!
@@paulsanvictores1141 Nah because of the price difference and value. I would just consider the 13 pro max a better phone for what you pay. My S20 fe was really lacking in a lot of places that it shouldn’t have been so therefor combined with the great software is why its a better phone ALL things considered.
I have both a iphone 12 pro max and a note 10 and I love some of the customizable features on the note 10 that the iPhone doesn't it feels lighter and the edge panel is awesome. Not to mention I can switch between launchers. However iphone have its perks they update their software constantly and they work really well while samsung sometimes glitch and the iphone os is a lot smoother and you can feel it when using the apps
I switched to the 13 pro Max when it first came out. The lack of 120hz was keeping me from trying iPhones. So it was the perfect time when they finally had a big phone with a great screen. I don't notice it going into 120hz and it's disappointing. The battery is amazing. The build quality is second to NONE. Airdrop is incredibly useful. That's all that I like about the phone compared to android. I'll be switching to the s22 ULTRA when I pay this off halfway
Using iphone feels like I'm using a subscription product. If it was 2015, I would be like wow iphone is amazing but I'm not a follower. I know what I need in a phone. If I don't have control over the phone, I don't want it. Speed and power is not a selling point anymore ..it pointless for me to use iphones, when I can do everything and more on android that's as fast and smooth but with better features. iPhone not for me but it's a great product for others.
I've owned both before, honestly there are a lot of things I miss with IOS. But I prefer Android for a few simple reasons. Keyboard haptics, Apple has some super good haptics that they don't even take full advantage of. Android keyboards have vibration feedback by default. Customization, Apple still doesn't give direct icon packs for their launcher. Yeah there's the "siri shortcut" workaround, but that's just clunky.
@@Banininator Gboard is just a completely inferior experience on IOS, you can't select the level of vibration feedback. You are simply stuck with whatever the default is. Least that's how it was with IOS 13 the last time I owned an iPhone. Then the bottom bar that Apple still doesn't give good solution to third party keyboard developers other than exact matching the default keyboard so it doesn't look out of place.
One of the things people fail to remember or mention about Face ID is that it’s far more intelligent than any other face unlock method on any device. From using it every day it will keep recognizing you even if you say grow out a full beard or decide to change your hair and makeup style if you’re a female where on most other phones that would cause it to be quite hit or miss on facial unlock. It also lets you set up alternative appearances say if you like to wear sunglasses a lot while out and about etc. The other reason I’m in the iPhone camp is mostly due to the fact that while animation speeds on androids make up for the slight lack of power under the hood, apples processors haven’t been beat in quite some time and with the development of the M1 chips I guarantee that margin is about to grow even larger when they slap one of their full desktop style SOC into the iPhones one of these years. Also I can’t upgrade every year or even every other year like a lot of people tend to do as I have a lot of important financial needs in my life and Apple is the only manufacturer that can keep a phone updated for 6 years now with the 6s line from 2015, and have it still be fully functional with minimal grief, I can’t even name you an android phone from 2017 that’s still fully supported and has minimal hiccups like apple pulls off with their “walled garden” approach to controlling both hardware and software. Plus you can’t beat apples same day same time updates for everyone that’s supported, Android you still gotta wait for the manufacturer’s to push the update from google to your carrier then from your carrier to you whenever they decide to push it 3-6 months sometimes even a year late. I do love many aspects of Android such as the customization and the more “I truly own this device and can do basically anything I want with it” feel, but for me I’ll take the pure power and reliability and the “it just always works” and longevity of iPhones. I do have my complaints but not too many to list. This is not to argue or belittle anyone on the Android side of things either, I just love tech and love sharing my views with people and discuss amongst other techies.
there is no lack of power on any flagship phone, every phone with high specs is more than capable of handle every app. Animations may be better on one OS or the other but is not related to raw SoC power at all
The pro max really is crazy with the battery life. I can get 13hrs screen on time no problem. I’m leaving work right now and my day included 5hrs of TH-cam and 2 hrs of call of duty of high brightness among other things like music Facebook and calls and text. And I have 5% left. I’m like you I actually prefer android but the hardware this year is really good for Apple
Switched from android to iphone 13. ✅ Better camera performance, I am satisfied with a picture even with just a few clicks ✅ Superb video quality with clear mic sounds ✅ Fast game apps. I play a game where loading time is a crucial element and iphone does the job ❌ Few android apps (from this page) isn't available ❌ Default calculator sucks, you won't see your equation ❌ Slower charge compared to fast charging devices ❌ Default turn-on of wi-fi and bluetooth ❌ No battery percentage within the icon ❌ Limited selection of themes ❌ Contacts also shows log of calls via messenger ❌ Large notch
I'm a android user but I got the same iphone 13 pro. I wanted to see what the hype was all about. I can't lie, iMessage is way better than Samsung message and Google message. I also like the weather app on iOS and face unlock is better than the figure print scanner. Other than that, Samsung is a better phone bc you have more options
I am an android fan girl but decided to switch to iPhone about a week ago and I must say that I’m extremely impressed. I got the 13 pro max and I absolutely love the battery…. as far as the hold, use a case and it not only protects the phone but gives better grip
I switched to the iPhone 13 pro max. From android. Definitely some things I do miss. However. I gotta question your results on battery life. My wife has the iPhone 13 pro and she gets close to 8 hrs of screen on time and usually ends the day with 30ish % to 40ish % and she uses her phone fairly heavily. I get close to 11 hrs of screen on time with my pro max and usually end a day of moderate usage with 50 to 60% battery left over. Not to mention you are the only reviewer that had a negative experience with battery life considering that the iPhone 13 pro has beaten out most android phones in battery life. And every reviewer I have seen has crowned the iPhone 13 pro max the battery king by a large margin
@@juliaanfloress not all of them. Also side by side comparisons do not lie. And from my own personal experience. It is not even close. The iPhone 13 pro max is the battery king. Undisputed

Still getting good performance and battery 🔋 from my iPhone. Whenever I’m in the mood to consume a lot of media I pull out my Galaxy Note 9.
Hang onto your Note9! Trust me. I just got my S22 Ultra but I'm still using my Note8 as a tablet to watch TH-cam/Netflix and loaf around on social media at home lol. The S22 Ultra camera and performances are bonkers tho. You gotta see to believe. I'm surrounded by iPhones (mom, dad, and sister) and the only thing that iPhones is better at is on paper running benchmarks. All that "speed" but they cant even use 1/4 of it lol
My work phone is an iPhone 12. I like it but it's nothing like Android. iPhone is really hard to use once you're locked in with Android. One thing I hate about the iPhone is that when it unlocks it doesn't go straight to the home screen, you still have to swipe up. My pixel 4 xl goes straight to the home screen once it's unlocked.
When you have your notifications set to read once unlocked you sometimes want to look at your notifications on the lock screen. Not automatically go to the Home Screen. For that android makes no sense.
@@RolandKoller90 that makes no sense to me because you still have to unlock your phone and go to the home screen to actually see your notifications, so why not look at your notifications at your home screen
Not sure if this is what you mean, but you can take a full page screenshot on iPhone. Select the image preview option in the bottom left corner of your screen The image editor will open and then you can select the 'Full Page' option Then, tap on 'Crop' to choose which part of the page you want to save You are almost done! Now, you can either save the screenshot or directly share it with a friend by selecting either the 'Save' or the 'Share' option.
One handed operation comfort is so underrated. Pixel 5 might have ruined me for future phones. The 6 felt like a brick in hand. AOD is a must have imo.
I am an iPhone user and i find this video super useful! First of all it’s an honest review and he gave me some tips I didn’t know! Thank you keep going! 🙌🏻
14:19 You are getting 6 hours while using around 60% of the battery in a single day. You need to look at the percentage used in the top graph. I never got to a 100% in a single day and the max I got is around 12 hours screen on time and on average it is around 8-9 hours.
Thanks for the review! I wish it boiled down to a simple choice between phone platforms. It's ecosystem baby! People like a phone that works with all their devices. I recently picked up a 16" M1 Pro because, well just because. The thing is simply beyond. Anyway, I'm a Note user and although I prefer it to iPhone, it doesn't play nice with OSX. I never thought I'd say this: I miss the seamlessness of my Note20 Ultra and my Dell XPS 9500--the reason I switched to MBP M1 Pro. So now I'm going to get the iPhone 14 Pro Max to get that seamlessness back--and some. Still, I know the iPhone's no Note (i.e. S22Ultra), but this brings me back to my original point: it's more than a choice between which device is "better". I play on my gf's iPhone 13 Pro Max to ease my pain of letting go of the Note. It isn't working. The bloody thing (the Note) just trumps everything for my personality type, which rages against Apple's philosophy: simple is always best. Ya, no!
Lots of features don't equal being better to me. Smart Reply, Schedule text and Google Assistant embedded in the Google Message app is enough for me and I actually like it.
Schedule text saved me a bunch of times 😂 from forgetting anniversaries and birthdays down to work stuff. I'm using the samsung keyboard though, this feature is a life saver.
I had the iPhone 13 pro when it just came out. I really like it, but overtime there were a lot of little things that started irritating me. Things I would normally do with android really easy. eventually after a month and a half I sold it and got the pixel 6 pro a few days ago. The iphone is great but I'm glad to be back with pixel
@@raffayasif7326 too many things iphone can't do. 1. Easy copying files from PC to phone, you dont need converters just drag and drop then start playing it if its video 2.set custom ringtone (from my music) 3.File managers 4. T9 search in dialer 5. More options to change default apps 6. And mostly more customization e.g change launchers, icons 7. No delivery reports for SMS (we don't use iMessage in our country) etc.... Android is like PC OS it gives you more control for your device
@@Deojames98 1. you need iTunes / finder on mac and in this app, there is "files" and you just drag and drop into certain app - if you want to watch a movie you copy this movie into the "VLC" folder for example. I know, it's not so smooth as on android where it acts as USB. But you know this is that sandbox system. 2. There are workarounds, but sure it's not so easy 3. You can use Files, you can use 3rd party "Documents". I don't think they work differently than file manager on android (or what you want to achieve?) 4. Huh? Why? 5. Apple wants you to be fully in their ecosystem so yeah, it is what it is. 6. ... 7. Not sure what you mean by that but even in countries that don't use iMessage classic SMS are working, also when someone has Simcard with credit, after a call there is a popup message showing how much credit is still left, etc. On Android, there are easier ways to do a certain tasks, but overall I feel like the iOS is more "complete" system. It's designed in some way and if you use it in way it was intended to use then there are almost 0 issues with the phone. For me when I switched from Android ... it was weird at first but when I used to it and dived deeper into the ecosystem. It's a wonderful experience. And mainly I don't need to figure out which ROM I want to flash every week because there are so many possibilities and settings that it's overwhelming. In iOS, you can't do that? Well, don't do that. (but there is a workaround for sure)
You can actually change the default browser but its pretty hidden away in that you need to scroll down in settings till you find your browser, then tap it and you should see a setting that says "default browser app" and you should be able to choose from all your browsers there.
I used Apple for 10+ years, 2011-2021 and switched last year to Samsung. So, I've been using Samsung for 1.6 years and it's the best phone I've ever had. I don't understand so many Android users saying that iPhone is the ultimate phone. It has such a boring interface and it's pretty much the same phone every year except maybe for the camera. I just don't get it.
Had to move from Galaxy S21 Ultra to 13 Pro Max because my new job requires iMessage. Overall I'm conflicted: I feel like iPhone more substantial and premium in build, while also being a downgrade in hardware and specs. I miss the hole-punch camera and fingerprint reader so much, but am confident these will be on the next generation iPhone Pro models. Trying to sell my S21 Ultra at the moment and hate that I can't keep both. The ecosystem really does sell...
U r fool ...👈...S 21 ultra is far far better .... iphones r not substantial rather ..they r heavy n uncomfortable.... because of that steel frame , along with case they r bulky.... S 21 ultra has better premium material ,feels fluid while swiping because of that slightly curved display which smoothly blends .... u feel feel that Executive , Bossy Vibe while holding it . Oh boy that Black S 21 ultra looks incredible 🔥🔥🔥
@@zethloveless7238 Zoom, under-screen fingerprint reader, and no notch. Still very happy with the iPhone, the battery is much better on this than the S21 Ultra
@@akshays2504 Both phones are fantastic. I’ve owned both and see the pros and cons to each. I prefer the look, camera, screen, and biometrics of the S21 Ultra while I enjoy the feel (heft), battery, speakers, and easily the most important being software integration with my other devices on the iPhone 13 Pro Max. I miss the fingerprint reader and hole-punch front camera a lot now that I’m back on iPhone but have been so happy with the battery and cross-device iMessage from my iPad, MacBook, and phone too. You take some and lose some
Points i noticed as a new ios user, 1. Apps in general take a lot of storage in comparison to android thus filling storage much faster and it’s not possible to clear that data as easily or intuitively as android. 2. Notifications are still kinda lacklustre in implementation 3. Apps are almost 3-4 times more expensive than android.(at least those I use) 4. File management sucks big time 5. Text selection like copy/paste etc isn’t as effective 6. Apps like safari and keyboard aren’t as good as chrome/gboard
There are people who buys the Bugatti chiron,and those who buy the Lamborghini Urus. Apple being the Bugatti ,samsung being the Lamborghini. The chiron for speed,and style,the Urus for versatility and a different feel of grunt, for a day out in the field or just in town,The chiron for more speed,which one would you think is better,out of the perspective I have simplified, and I am being dead honest,not picking a winner as both has pro's and cons,so what you say?
This was exactly the reason why I had to leave the iPhone 13 Pro and iOS this time as well. It is the simplicity and possibilities with Android that make me turn in that direction. This time it was not as easy though. iPhone 13 Pro is a great phone. If only iOS could catch up a little.
But if you really think about it all they really don’t need to catch up any because they’re marketed for a certain type of people and the phones work amazingly for that type of person what do you think of Apple you really think of that business person that CEO of a company or uglies that’s what I think of I think of a rich business person and iPhones especially the 13 Pro and the pro max really work for people that are business savvy and they’re just much easier to use than an android I could never switch back to android honestly I would feel like I literally was the richest person in the world and then out of nowhere overnight I went bankrupt that’s what I would feel like because I’ve went and I’ve checked out android phones and I’ve checked out some of the like top android phones really expensive android phones and they all felt cheap to me they all felt very cheap and they all looked the damn same and when I say that I mean Apple phones yes they look the same just different sizes but when you have competitor android phones that all look the same when you’re looking at them from the front to me it’s like wait a minute you guys don’t really stand out where is the diversity it’s like android was like you know what everybody needs to adopt this look because Apple was already ahead of its game with that luck and then android came out right afterwards and started you know the different companies that sell android phones started putting out phones that were looking real similar to apples screen they just went all the way without the notch and I’m just like Wyatt at the time I was like where is the originality come on but now I’m literally like where is the originality all android phones literally look the same and most of them are the same exact size they’re all super long and complete full screen with no not at all you don’t even know what phone somebody has unless you see the back of the phone I mean they’re making super cheap ass android phones that have the full phone with no notch and I mean the quality isn’t super bad and you wouldn’t even be able to tell if somebody has like a top dollar android phone or you know a cheap ass Walmart android phone unless you were to see the back of their phone so to me there’s no like real stand out there there’s no like oh wow you have that phone but with Apple it’s like the quality is amazing they look expensive they are expensive they feel expensive and overall the quality of the machine is just expensive and exquisite I could never switch back to android because like I said I would feel like I was a billionaire and then overnight I was bankrupt and I was poor because that’s just wet android phones feel like to me they just feel cheap but that’s just my opinion
@@youngaaqib I mean it’s not a lie though Apple products are marketed for a certain type of consumer and the phones literally work for those type of consumers and that’s gamers business people but you can’t really say that about android because if you want a gaming device then you have to get a certain android phone that works better for gaming or if you want an android phone for business type stuff you have to get a certain android phone that works better for business type stuff Apple phones and Apple products especially their computers and stuff are just good for overall everything there really isn’t anything you can’t really do on a Mac product like the Mac computers or an iPhone can pretty much do it all
Been rocking with Apple for some months now, coming from a 10 year mark with Samsung. There both nice operating systems. It’s more of a personal preference. As of right now I just want a phone to do the basics smoothly and the iPhone was on my mind.
Same. Used to be a Samsung/Android fanboy but decided to start off with an iPhone 12 out of peer pressure from friends and coworkers. Since then I fell in love with iPhone and can safely say I enjoy both operating systems with their own unique features and offers. Currently rocking a 13 Pro Max with my Galaxy S10+, which used to be my main before the 12, as a backup phone
I have S21 ultra and iPhone 13 pro, I'm using both android and ios since more than 2 years , both have positive and negative things but overall I use my S21 more for doing my work , it just feel easier and of course for watching videos
As for me i dont really care about customization but the stability plays a very important factor to me. I have been using android flagships for years ( galaxy series) but i got tired of annoying anomalies on android. People who say there arent any anomaly on android they either lie or havent used android for 2+ years.
I don't know about the ppl who say android phones don't have hiccups but maybe one UI? I haven't used a flagship Samsung so I can't know but my Redmi note 10 pro max definitely has some "anomalies"
Once used an ip6s, but that was a short journey. Now I'm on oneplus, it's smooth but I'd be lying if i say there's no hiccups at all. On the other hand, I scrolled reddit the other day, and people seemed to complained quite a bit about apple's software. Was planning to try out an iphone, but now I'm having second thoughts..
I use both (samsung note 20 ultra for work and iphone 12 pro for personal) and I find anomalies on both honestly. Both phones were near perfect when I first bought them, but after a few months both started having a few small glitches here and there.
@@jijumonm2345 so true, fanboys like to cover up the flaws of both systems lol. I used iphones that crashed on me, I've seen bugs too. They make it seem like iphones never have bugs lol
Been using Android (from HTC, Sony and Samsung) for 9 years, last year I made a decision to switch to iPhone 12. I only missed the fingerprint scanner but that is all, no regrets with my choice.
i think miui is very suck ui sometime they dont update my time clock on Alway-on-Display and most of time the weather widget not update temperature till i click on the widget they get update but miui have update more than 1 year i confirm becuase im using it
There's allot of reasons I think Android is better then iPhone, but I'm tired of hearing about the notch! Reviewers have already bullied the phone companies from dropping bezels and the Physical Home Button, which I really miss. But if iPhone drops that notch, they'll lose one of their biggest advantages over Android, which I believe is their Super Fast Face ID.
Saying apple 60hz feels smoother than a high refresh rate android is a downright lie. I had to use a low end android with 90hz display and couldn’t go back to iphone 12. Ipad pro spoiled me further so i bought iphone 13 pm. It is really smooth but not as smooth as ipad pro m1. Ios 15.2 helped.
I use both and agree with most of what you say here. Personally I find the notification icons in the Android status bar to be distracting and needless. You can already see your notifications in the notification shade and you can turn on badges. Always good to have the option of course which is an Android strength (things like haptics which I don’t personally like can be turned off on Android but don’t exist as an option at all for typing on iOS devices)
I've just switched from an S9+ to 13 pro. Never used iPhone before, always had android smartphone since the beginning of smartphones. Today is day 3 and boy I'm missing my Android phone so much 😔 but I'll give it some more time with the iPhone but if new upcoming Samsung wows me, then I'll flip back.
I've had the iPhone 13 pro max for a couple of weeks now. First time using an Apple device. I have to say I love it. it's incredible. but man...coming from android I miss the universal cross app back swipe from both sides, being able to choose what maps app you want to use by default, using Google assistant just by saying hey Google... It's really really annoying...😭
The battle between Iphones and android phones seems really meaningless. People compare just specs and performance which might be similar. But the most important things are much deeper. For instance, I am from Bulgaria, EU. Everywhere in Europe the iphone costs much more than in the USA, and I mean not even close. The iphone 13 pro is 1200 euro at least. Here, nobody is using Facetime, imessege or all the other functions for full apple experience. Europe is much more based on using Android and Windows features. For example in most of the countries Whatsapp, Facebook messenger, Viber are the top used communication apps, Chrome is the browser, Gmail is the email provider, we use microsoft office pack and so on. Most of the apps in my country are based on Android. This means that buying an Iphone means buying it for the cameras, which are not the best for sure, and for the apple logo itself.
Fact, apple is really popular in America but the rest of the world is mostly on Android
Pixel 6 pro doesn't suport wifi and Volte în EastEurope. After using 3 iterations of Pixel phone I switched to IPhone 13 pro, Pixel 6 Pro and finally 13 Pro Max. Pixel 6 pro seems to be like beta product. Build quality isn't The Best, especially compare to the iphone. Call quality îs Best to none on IPhone. And yes I do miss the customisation of android but also got tired to wait for next update to fix the issues. To sum it up if you want a quality experience phone, camera, battery build IPhone has it all. That is coming from and Android user.
@George Cristian did you try samsung? Because Android isn't just pixel
I’m curious for anybody outside of America, would you all buy iPhones and other apple devices if they were priced the same as they are in the US? ($699 for the mini 799 for the 13, $999 for the pro 1099 for the pro max)
@@lifeisshørt_420, don't get me wrong. A lot of people are using apple devices, I can say probably 30% in Eastern Europe, 50% in Western and even more in Scandinavia. For me personally, I would have probably used macbook, but I am working as a lawyer and most of the government online systems are not working very well on mac. In fact, the macbook became much cheaper during the last 2 years. As it comes to the Iphones - No. Put aside that Android "customization", but Android really offers a lot of useful functions, which I am really used to.
It’s funny, I switched from the S20 to the 13 pro and I thought the charging speed was very similar to quick charge with the right power brick. Also, the battery life is the best I’ve ever had in a smartphone and it’s not even close. Sounds like there might be some background processes to turn off or a software reset needed.
yeah i just recently got the 13 pro and my battery life is insane maybe there are a lot of apps that are running in the background of his phone
@@andrewsclafani4202 yep mine lasts about two days and i charge it for 1 hour once in two days. He is just being salty cause he is used to his chinese garbage phones that charges to 100 in 10 mins and then the battery blasts in your face when your using it lmao android are so bad like smh who tf would even buy that crap
@@maddeningmonk9585 Fast charging isn't bad for the phone battery. Most phones will charge rapidly and safely up until the critical 80% mark, and then they'll charge slower to 100%.
CNET:
Fast-charging batteries work in two phases. The first phase applies a blast of voltage to the empty or nearly empty battery. This gives you that blazing charge of from 50% to 70% in the first 10, 15 or 30 minutes. That's because during the first phase of charging, batteries can absorb a charge quickly without major negative effects on their long-term health.
You know how it seems to take as long to fill up that last 20% or 30% of the battery as it does to charge the first 70% or 80%? That last part is the second charging phase, where phone-makers have to slow down and carefully manage the charging speed or else the charge process actually could damage the battery.
what brick are you using?

Nice review as always. Great job!
I've been eyeing the 13 Pro since it was released but can't afford it now. It is one of the best in the market now and would be a great buy since it could last you for 5 yrs or more. They upgraded everything compared to last year's series and it is a great patch direction.

As a guy who likes to jump back and forth, I'll agree with him mostly on iphones. Love the build quality and camera (I'm not a photographer type, so the basic interface is actually preferable to me). I do tend to get more "glued" to my Android phones, as the os is just more robust and fun to play with. But there's something I like about the simplicity of iOS. When I do switch over to apple, I tend to spend less time on screen, and use the phone for the basics like calling, texting, TH-cam, and some fb scrolling. I enjoy both experiences, as different as they may be. Hell, sometimes I even like switching to a dumb phone for a couple months, and just open my laptop for the entertainment stuff... I'm all over the place with phones. Love'em all.
You sound just like me man. I laugh at people fighting over Android vs iOS etc. I love them both. I am too much of a cheater to remain loyal to just one OS. hehe.

Just switched to an iPhone 13 Pro from a Samsung Note 20 Ultra. Night and day difference, the battery life in my experience was far better than how you described. I've been going to bed at night with over 50% left with moderate to heavy use. (I did make setting changes to help and they've made a noticeable difference)
It's the fastest phone I've ever used and feels even faster when you turn down the animations between apps. It's very impressive. If you care about benchmark scores then run a test against the best Android device and the difference is substantial. Way better than the S21 Ultra both with CPU and GPU scores. If you can get past the customization of Android it's a no brainer to switch to this iPhone, it's a beast. I was a heavy Nova launcher user and an android user for years prior and (so far) don't regret anything about making the switch to iOS. The widgets are better and just using the phone with regular apps like Instagram and Snapchat is a far superior experience.
Slow charging , cannot sideload apps, no fingerprint (lol) , no picture in picture for basic apps like maps, no type C . No reverse charge to charge earphones when needed. And you pay premium price for it. Very funny.

As a primary iPhone user I 100% agree at 1:58 starting w the iPhone 12 series. a gel case or any case fixes this. I actually bought the pro instead of the pro Max this year bc I feel like the annoyance would be less with a light weight phone.
I was an android user as well, the only reason I switched to iPhone is because FaceTime is not available in android. Android was not very user-friendly towards elderly at least those early versions so I had to buy apple products for them and forced to switch to iPhone myself. Have to say that apple marketing strategy was very good.
Had 12 pro max last year. From android since 2011. Amazing how reliable this phone is. Batt life is among the best despite the smaller capacity. Just got tired of android - I guess I just needed a new playground and i love it!
Customization and modding just got tiring over the years as we mature. Of course, there are some apps that run only android especially the geeky advanced ones but the android phone at home can take that :)
For sure, my daily driver for the the next few years.
Just the right amount of minimalism i needed in a phone.
when i had my android, i always used to change my wallpaper and move things. now, i just need a phone. tho, it is pretty boring, i mean my iphone xD

The only decision I made before jumping to Apple after a decade with android & windows is not about specs. It all comes down if I want freedom and flexibility with gadgets or data privacy and seamless ecosystem
To this day, i do not regret switching from android to iOS. I was an android boy for years. I had a note 3, s6 active, s7 edge, note 8. all of which over time started to lag, freeze, and get overly hot. So that’s when i decided to try apple and see if i noticed any difference. and after owning a brand new iPhone XR for 2 years, it didn’t change at all except battery life, which is understandable. the battery health is at 87%. I will admit, near the 2 year mark, and after iOS 15 came out, i noticed it did start to struggle playing high intensive games, but it was after 2 whole years. not 6 months which all of the androids i owned did. the only thing i miss about android is the customization, but then again, i like the simplicity of iOS.
i recently upgraded to the iPhone 13 pro max, and i absolutely love this phone. the battery life is insane, the performance is incredibly, the phone itself is gorgeous. I don’t think i’ll ever go back to android, ever.
Note 8 is ancient. Buy s22 ultra and see it fly.
@@slayer5097 given that i now have an iphone 13, i think i’ll pass. however, my dad bought at s22 ultra and he loves it. maybe one day i’ll go back to android, but for now i’m sticking with iOS.

I have been on the fence of leaving my android(samsung galaxy s20+) and getting the 13pro max for about 4 months now, but decided I can't let go of my finger print scanner and customization that let's me use my phone efficiently for my lifestyle. Maybe one day lol.....
Good review! 👍🏽
One of the best reviews of the two platforms. Sticking with Android until the iOS software advances a bit in the feature department.
Great video. I'm an Android user and I'm going to stay that way. But I did have a good time using an iPhone
You're the only reviewer I've heard say you like the weight of the iphone13. Thanks for that,I like heavy phones and was wondering if something was wrong cause most other reviews complain about the weight.i just ordered a 13 pro,should arrive any day now,I'm switching from an galaxy S9.
Realised I don't mess about with my phone much so looking forward to the iPhone simplicity.
"It's smaller but heavier"
Nobody in their right minds would call this an improvement
I've used iphone before, and I realized iphone experience and ecosystem thing can be created on Android, but android experience cannot be created on iphone. As long as it supports apps I use, I'm android user.
I have used both. I love Android for its customization. You can literally change the whole look and feel with your phone with a launcher. Also when I had my android phone I was able to download an AOD app, which I can’t do with iPhone. But I am an iPhone user. I have been for many years. But I recognize the strengths of Android. Neither OS is perfect. But I am an Apple user, and I always will be, but I do like Android and would buy an Android phone to have as a secondary phone.

Using both Android and iPhone. On Android, the photo quality is still a hit or miss on non-pixel phones and the battery optimization is still not as good as iOS. Despite having larger battery capacity, it drains just as fast, so, not much of a difference.
On the iPhone side, the lack of fingerprint scanner is one of the most annoying issue since face unlock won't work while wearing a mask. And the option to sideload apps. A few months ago, I needed an App (with no alternatives) for work. The publisher removed their official app, so, it was no-go on the iPhone while on Android, I managed to sideload it with no issues. Same goes for the emulator since I love retro games more than current mobile ones.
GameCube and many other emulators run better on iPhone (ps2 is still better on android cause of aethersx2 and play not being that good on iPhone although it is improving) and android has 3ds and iPhone doesn’t at the moment
Should see how Star Wars roque squadron 2 runs. It’s 60 frames with barely a dip to 54 frames on iPhone and android it struggles on 30-40 frames on most android and with top androids struggling to get to 60 and stay they dip right away to 30-40

@@PlanktonFish Sadly, the update does not include older iphones (12 and below?)
@@robmalcolm8042 Did you jailbreak your iPhone? IIRC, iOS doesnt have any legit emulators aside from web-based and 'dev' mode

I changed from 12 Pro Max last year for the Pixel 6 Pro. Main reason was for the Pixel camera which in my opinion, is way better than what my 12 Pro Max was. I would love to go back to Apple this year, and buy the 14 Pro, however, even with the new 48mp wide camera lens on 14 Pro/Max, I can't see it coming up to this year's forthcoming Pixel 7 Pro. It's a bit frustrating, because I prefer ios and the iPhone build, fab phones operating wise, if only they could keep up with other cameras in 2022! 🤷 I am keeping my eyes on specs now, and I would LOVE Apple to SURPRISE me regarding the cameras this year, then I'd go back in a millisecond! 🙂🇬🇧
The biggest issue with iPhone after Android is that I can't install TH-cam Vanced in iPhone.
For me, it's very important.
Also, iPhone's screen recorder app just sucks.
im not iphone user but i saw iphone user said they have similar app like youtube vanced and free
You can do it with Altstore on ios. But it takes some extra steps (a pc)for the first setup. Its not geeky though, you can do it.
Sidenote, for people who like messing around , look in ios shortcuts. Its not “customization” but its fun and add extra “features” to your iphone usability.
@@zajizjaz I tried every similar apps and they are all garbage lol, it's not even close to TH-cam vanced ...this app for me is more important than iMessage and every app social media apple has.

LONG time Android user here. Like 12 years. I had an iPhone back when data and talk/text were separate in phone plans. ANY way, I just wanted to say that I recently switched from the S20+ to the 13 Pro Max and I miss the android platform SO much. The iPhone is gorgeous and the camera is beautiful but I can't seem to fall in love with it, despite it having such a good battery and few other small perks. Definitely switching back when I'm done paying the iPhone off but it's been an experience for sure.
I just got my first iPhone (13 pro max) and right away I was horrified to find out there’s no back button and I can’t arrange the icons to my liking. Coming from a Note 10+, I feel like I downgraded. This thing will be going back after my trial period for a s22 Ultra.
U swipe from the left of the screen to go back or there’s a designated on screen button to go back
@@Majick427 I know, it sucked. My thumb didn't reach across the screen to swipe back or hit the back button at the top corner. With Samsung your can choose to swipe from the right or left side of the screen. I ended up taking the iphone back and getting the 22 Ultra. Only thing I miss about the iphone was the battery life, but the fast charging of the 22 Ultra makes up for it.
One thing to praise the iPhone 13 pro max is definitely the battery. My s20+, I charged it to 100 and goes to sleep next morning it drops to 83%. I just switched to an iPhone 13 pro max, went camping last weekends, Friday till Sunday with little usage I still have around 65% when I got home Sunday afternoon

Hi, I also recently switched from android to iPhone 13pro, and I also miss the little which we can do easily in the android like saving a photo to gallery. In iPhone it doesn’t save the picture to our local file system although you can see the picture. But, you need to download it manually to our local files. Overall I am loving the iPhone and you channel. #keepItUp
I have been using an iPhone for the past 2 weeks and yeah, that gallery thing is something I missed from using an android.
The Photos/Gallery thing also surprised me, but I'm also not seeing photos from Whatsapp and similar random places in my Photos which was annoying on Android. I've been rocking 13 Pro as my first iPhone for month and a half now :)

The hardest thing for me is the ios Gallery App. I have switched vom a S10 to a 13Pro.
The ios Gallery is so unorganized. In Android there is for everything a folder: pictures, downloads, screenshots and all the ather App like 9gag or Facebook. On ios there is only on big mess.
why not use google photos?
ios has been having folders for like literally everything you said a screenshot folder and if u got photos from twitter or facebook or anything it makes a seperate folder for it
I just got the 13 pro max and it is by far the best phone i have ever used. I came from an s20 fe and the switch from an exynos 990 to an a15 bionic was an unreal experience. The best thing is that everything just works as expected and the high refresh rate is amazing. I have ios 15.3 beta and it’s definitely a noticeable improvement in terms of the high refresh rate. I strongly recommend this phone and it’s absolutely fantastic. Great video btw keep the great analysis up!

Not to mention I can switch between launchers. However iphone have its perks they update their software constantly and they work really well while samsung sometimes glitch and the iphone os is a lot smoother and you can feel it when using the apps
I switched to the 13 pro Max when it first came out. The lack of 120hz was keeping me from trying iPhones. So it was the perfect time when they finally had a big phone with a great screen. I don't notice it going into 120hz and it's disappointing. The battery is amazing. The build quality is second to NONE. Airdrop is incredibly useful. That's all that I like about the phone compared to android. I'll be switching to the s22 ULTRA when I pay this off halfway
Wow
the reason you don't see the 120hz is cause iPhones were already smooth but just compare it to 60hz and you will see the difference
Using iphone feels like I'm using a subscription product. If it was 2015, I would be like wow iphone is amazing but I'm not a follower. I know what I need in a phone. If I don't have control over the phone, I don't want it. Speed and power is not a selling point anymore ..it pointless for me to use iphones, when I can do everything and more on android that's as fast and smooth but with better features. iPhone not for me but it's a great product for others.

This is the best long term review I've watched by far. Thank you
I've owned both before, honestly there are a lot of things I miss with IOS. But I prefer Android for a few simple reasons. Keyboard haptics, Apple has some super good haptics that they don't even take full advantage of. Android keyboards have vibration feedback by default. Customization, Apple still doesn't give direct icon packs for their launcher. Yeah there's the "siri shortcut" workaround, but that's just clunky.
Gboard has Haptics on iOS. (:
@@Banininator Gboard is just a completely inferior experience on IOS, you can't select the level of vibration feedback. You are simply stuck with whatever the default is. Least that's how it was with IOS 13 the last time I owned an iPhone. Then the bottom bar that Apple still doesn't give good solution to third party keyboard developers other than exact matching the default keyboard so it doesn't look out of place.
@@Banininator doesn't work.
@@robinbanda1723 it Does, you need to activate it

Your vlogs are really high quality and educative. Very clear.
One of the things people fail to remember or mention about Face ID is that it’s far more intelligent than any other face unlock method on any device. From using it every day it will keep recognizing you even if you say grow out a full beard or decide to change your hair and makeup style if you’re a female where on most other phones that would cause it to be quite hit or miss on facial unlock. It also lets you set up alternative appearances say if you like to wear sunglasses a lot while out and about etc. The other reason I’m in the iPhone camp is mostly due to the fact that while animation speeds on androids make up for the slight lack of power under the hood, apples processors haven’t been beat in quite some time and with the development of the M1 chips I guarantee that margin is about to grow even larger when they slap one of their full desktop style SOC into the iPhones one of these years. Also I can’t upgrade every year or even every other year like a lot of people tend to do as I have a lot of important financial needs in my life and Apple is the only manufacturer that can keep a phone updated for 6 years now with the 6s line from 2015, and have it still be fully functional with minimal grief, I can’t even name you an android phone from 2017 that’s still fully supported and has minimal hiccups like apple pulls off with their “walled garden” approach to controlling both hardware and software. Plus you can’t beat apples same day same time updates for everyone that’s supported, Android you still gotta wait for the manufacturer’s to push the update from google to your carrier then from your carrier to you whenever they decide to push it 3-6 months sometimes even a year late. I do love many aspects of Android such as the customization and the more “I truly own this device and can do basically anything I want with it” feel, but for me I’ll take the pure power and reliability and the “it just always works” and longevity of iPhones. I do have my complaints but not too many to list. This is not to argue or belittle anyone on the Android side of things either, I just love tech and love sharing my views with people and discuss amongst other techies.
there is no lack of power on any flagship phone, every phone with high specs is more than capable of handle every app. Animations may be better on one OS or the other but is not related to raw SoC power at all
The best review I've seen on the iPhone 13, others only give praise to it only criticizing the notch, but nothing else
The pro max really is crazy with the battery life. I can get 13hrs screen on time no problem. I’m leaving work right now and my day included 5hrs of TH-cam and 2 hrs of call of duty of high brightness among other things like music Facebook and calls and text. And I have 5% left. I’m like you I actually prefer android but the hardware this year is really good for Apple
Switched from android to iphone 13.
✅ Better camera performance, I am satisfied with a picture even with just a few clicks
✅ Superb video quality with clear mic sounds
✅ Fast game apps. I play a game where loading time is a crucial element and iphone does the job
❌ Few android apps (from this page) isn't available
❌ Default calculator sucks, you won't see your equation
❌ Slower charge compared to fast charging devices
❌ Default turn-on of wi-fi and bluetooth
❌ No battery percentage within the icon
❌ Limited selection of themes
❌ Contacts also shows log of calls via messenger
❌ Large notch

I switched to the iPhone 13 pro max. From android. Definitely some things I do miss. However. I gotta question your results on battery life. My wife has the iPhone 13 pro and she gets close to 8 hrs of screen on time and usually ends the day with 30ish % to 40ish % and she uses her phone fairly heavily. I get close to 11 hrs of screen on time with my pro max and usually end a day of moderate usage with 50 to 60% battery left over.

My work phone is an iPhone 12. I like it but it's nothing like Android. iPhone is really hard to use once you're locked in with Android. One thing I hate about the iPhone is that when it unlocks it doesn't go straight to the home screen, you still have to swipe up. My pixel 4 xl goes straight to the home screen once it's unlocked.

14:19 You are getting 6 hours while using around 60% of the battery in a single day. You need to look at the percentage used in the top graph. I never got to a 100% in a single day and the max I got is around 12 hours screen on time and on average it is around 8-9 hours.
Just the kind of video I was hoping for. Thanks for the fair comparison.
Thanks for the review! I wish it boiled down to a simple choice between phone platforms. It's ecosystem baby! People like a phone that works with all their devices. I recently picked up a 16" M1 Pro because, well just because. The thing is simply beyond. Anyway, I'm a Note user and although I prefer it to iPhone, it doesn't play nice with OSX. I never thought I'd say this: I miss the seamlessness of my Note20 Ultra and my Dell XPS 9500--the reason I switched to MBP M1 Pro. So now I'm going to get the iPhone 14 Pro Max to get that seamlessness back--and some. Still, I know the iPhone's no Note (i.e. S22Ultra), but this brings me back to my original point: it's more than a choice between which device is "better". I play on my gf's iPhone 13 Pro Max to ease my pain of letting go of the Note. It isn't working. The bloody thing (the Note) just trumps everything for my personality type, which rages against Apple's philosophy: simple is always best. Ya, no!

On Android, there are easier ways to do a certain tasks, but overall I feel like the iOS is more "complete" system. It's designed in some way and if you use it in way it was intended to use then there are almost 0 issues with the phone.

I used Apple for 10+ years, 2011-2021 and switched last year to Samsung. So, I've been using Samsung for 1.6 years and it's the best phone I've ever had. I don't understand so many Android users saying that iPhone is the ultimate phone. It has such a boring interface and it's pretty much the same phone every year except maybe for the camera. I just don't get it.
Had to move from Galaxy S21 Ultra to 13 Pro Max because my new job requires iMessage. Overall I'm conflicted: I feel like iPhone more substantial and premium in build, while also being a downgrade in hardware and specs. I miss the hole-punch camera and fingerprint reader so much, but am confident these will be on the next generation iPhone Pro models.

Points i noticed as a new ios user,
1. Apps in general take a lot of storage in comparison to android thus filling storage much faster and it’s not possible to clear that data as easily or intuitively as android.
2. Notifications are still kinda lacklustre in implementation
3. Apps are almost 3-4 times more expensive than android.(at least those I use)
4. File management sucks big time
5. Text selection like copy/paste etc isn’t as effective
6. Apps like safari and keyboard aren’t as good as chrome/gboard
I agree. Notifications in ios is so lackluster and not organized compared to android.

There are people who buys the Bugatti chiron,and those who buy the Lamborghini Urus. Apple being the Bugatti ,samsung being the Lamborghini. The chiron for speed,and style,the Urus for versatility and a different feel of grunt, for a day out in the field or just in town,The chiron for more speed,which one would you think is better,out of the perspective I have simplified, and I am being dead honest,not picking a winner as both has pro's and cons,so what you say?
This was exactly the reason why I had to leave the iPhone 13 Pro and iOS this time as well. It is the simplicity and possibilities with Android that make me turn in that direction. This time it was not as easy though. iPhone 13 Pro is a great phone. If only iOS could catch up a little.
But if you really think about it all they really don’t need to catch up any because they’re marketed for a certain type of people and the phones work amazingly for that type of person what do you think of Apple you really think of that business person that CEO of a company or uglies that’s what I think of I think of a rich business person and iPhones especially the 13 Pro and the pro max really work for people that are business savvy and they’re just much easier to use than an android I could never switch back to android honestly I would feel like I literally was the richest person in the world and then out of nowhere overnight I went bankrupt that’s what I would feel like because I’ve went and I’ve checked out android phones and I’ve checked out some of the like top android phones really expensive android phones and they all felt cheap to me they all felt very cheap and they all looked the damn same and when I say that I mean Apple phones yes they look the same just different sizes but when you have competitor android phones that all look the same when you’re looking at them from the front to me it’s like wait a minute you guys don’t really stand out where is the diversity it’s like android was like you know what everybody needs to adopt this look because Apple was already ahead of its game with that luck and then android came out right afterwards and started you know the different companies that sell android phones started putting out phones that were looking real similar to apples screen they just went all the way without the notch and I’m just like Wyatt at the time I was like where is the originality come on but now I’m literally like where is the originality all android phones literally look the same and most of them are the same exact size they’re all super long and complete full screen with no not at all you don’t even know what phone somebody has unless you see the back of the phone I mean they’re making super cheap ass android phones that have the full phone with no notch and I mean the quality isn’t super bad and you wouldn’t even be able to tell if somebody has like a top dollar android phone or you know a cheap ass Walmart android phone unless you were to see the back of their phone so to me there’s no like real stand out there there’s no like oh wow you have that phone but with Apple it’s like the quality is amazing they look expensive they are expensive they feel expensive and overall the quality of the machine is just expensive and exquisite I could never switch back to android because like I said I would feel like I was a billionaire and then overnight I was bankrupt and I was poor because that’s just wet android phones feel like to me they just feel cheap but that’s just my opinion
@@brooklyndestiny446 wtf
@@youngaaqib I mean it’s not a lie though Apple products are marketed for a certain type of consumer and the phones literally work for those type of consumers and that’s gamers business people but you can’t really say that about android because if you want a gaming device then you have to get a certain android phone that works better for gaming or if you want an android phone for business type stuff you have to get a certain android phone that works better for business type stuff Apple phones and Apple products especially their computers and stuff are just good for overall everything there really isn’t anything you can’t really do on a Mac product like the Mac computers or an iPhone can pretty much do it all
Finally a fair review from a different perspective. Definitely subbed
Been rocking with Apple for some months now, coming from a 10 year mark with Samsung. There both nice operating systems. It’s more of a personal preference. As of right now I just want a phone to do the basics smoothly and the iPhone was on my mind.
Same. Used to be a Samsung/Android fanboy but decided to start off with an iPhone 12 out of peer pressure from friends and coworkers. Since then I fell in love with iPhone and can safely say I enjoy both operating systems with their own unique features and offers. Currently rocking a 13 Pro Max with my Galaxy S10+, which used to be my main before the 12, as a backup phone
@@ElfenLiedAgain really sad how a lot of iphone converts became that way due to peer pressure. kinda disgusting looking at it.
@@gasun1274 it was worth it though. Didn’t realise how actually convienent iPhone is
This was a great unbiased comparison. That was detailed! Really useful. Thank you!
Good job man. Such a wholesome and robust review.
I have S21 ultra and iPhone 13 pro, I'm using both android and ios since more than 2 years , both have positive and negative things but overall I use my S21 more for doing my work , it just feel easier and of course for watching videos
As for me i dont really care about customization but the stability plays a very important factor to me. I have been using android flagships for years ( galaxy series) but i got tired of annoying anomalies on android. People who say there arent any anomaly on android they either lie or havent used android for 2+ years.
I don't know about the ppl who say android phones don't have hiccups but maybe one UI? I haven't used a flagship Samsung so I can't know but my Redmi note 10 pro max definitely has some "anomalies"
Once used an ip6s, but that was a short journey. Now I'm on oneplus, it's smooth but I'd be lying if i say there's no hiccups at all. On the other hand, I scrolled reddit the other day, and people seemed to complained quite a bit about apple's software. Was planning to try out an iphone, but now I'm having second thoughts..
I use both (samsung note 20 ultra for work and iphone 12 pro for personal) and I find anomalies on both honestly. Both phones were near perfect when I first bought them, but after a few months both started having a few small glitches here and there.
@@jijumonm2345 so true, fanboys like to cover up the flaws of both systems lol. I used iphones that crashed on me, I've seen bugs too. They make it seem like iphones never have bugs lol
Plenty of bugs at the iOS 15 release mate, they are still ironing them out lol
Been using Android (from HTC, Sony and Samsung) for 9 years, last year I made a decision to switch to iPhone 12. I only missed the fingerprint scanner but that is all, no regrets with my choice.
i also use split screen a lot
This was a very honest review. Much appreciated!
@2:57 ayyy! youre from SB?! im from Riverside! love your channel!
I'll never understand why people like phones to weigh more.
Same tbh
Especially when it makes shorts go down
3:13 That is the part where I love my Apple Watch which allows to unlock the phone even with a mask on
I don't understand why people has to choose iOS or Android? I use both ☺️
Probably because most ppl don't wanna hassle themselves trying to use 2 completely different phones at the same time.. seems quite inconvenient
I am at the opposite side, don't like heavy phones at all. I love light, flat and nearly bezel less phones and that's what I got for my S22 Plus
Why does nobody give a damn to xiaomi's weather app? It looks so good and has all the functionality plus great animations on a 120hz screen
Might be because of the U.S. centric audience. Xiaomi phones are beasts for the money just damn near unheard of for the average consumer here.
@@internetfrnd6496 Its just that Apple= More views
its because miui is the worst ui and it ahs only 1 year of software update
@@samio2944 wrong
i think miui is very suck ui sometime they dont update my time clock on Alway-on-Display and most of time the weather widget not update temperature till i click on the widget they get update
but miui have update more than 1 year i confirm becuase im using it
I run a Pixel 4 XL and a iPhone 13 mini
Couldn't be happier 😊
Pixel 4 was fantastic
There's allot of reasons I think Android is better then iPhone, but I'm tired of hearing about the notch! Reviewers have already bullied the phone companies from dropping bezels and the Physical Home Button, which I really miss. But if iPhone drops that notch, they'll lose one of their biggest advantages over Android, which I believe is their Super Fast Face ID.
Apple is putting FaceID under the display
the battery life on my 13 pro is insane ! not sure why yours is diffrent?
I’m pretty sure in settings on the iPhone you can change it so that the entire screen doesn’t light up whenever you get a notification.
Yeah you can at least I can on my 12 pro max anyhow
How can you do that?
How do u do that? iOS user here
I love it my bro keep up the work and I love the video lot real true 💯💯
Saying apple 60hz feels smoother than a high refresh rate android is a downright lie. I had to use a low end android with 90hz display and couldn’t go back to iphone 12. Ipad pro spoiled me further so i bought iphone 13 pm. It is really smooth but not as smooth as ipad pro m1. Ios 15.2 helped.
Nope, what he's trying to say is apple's 60hz feels smoother than android's 60hz but high refresh rate will always be buttery smooth
I use both and agree with most of what you say here.
Personally I find the notification icons in the Android status bar to be distracting and needless. You can already see your notifications in the notification shade and you can turn on badges. Always good to have the option of course which is an Android strength (things like haptics which I don’t personally like can be turned off on Android but don’t exist as an option at all for typing on iOS devices)
I've just switched from an S9+ to 13 pro. Never used iPhone before, always had android smartphone since the beginning of smartphones. Today is day 3 and boy I'm missing my Android phone so much 😔 but I'll give it some more time with the iPhone but if new upcoming Samsung wows me, then I'll flip back.
I switched from android to the iphone 13 pro is my best phone soo far
I've had the iPhone 13 pro max for a couple of weeks now. First time using an Apple device.
I have to say I love it. it's incredible.
but man...coming from android I miss the universal cross app back swipe from both sides, being able to choose what maps app you want to use by default, using Google assistant just by saying hey Google...
It's really really annoying...😭
You can just delete Apple Maps and install google maps. I use google maps. I cannot stand Apple Maps.
And you can't do picture in picture with maps on iphone
@@RolandKoller90 but I don't think you can make it work as a default app anyway...🥺
@@ashrit2753 yeah...or split screen 😭
Campazzo?!?!?! 😂😂. Another dope video, very insightful and thorough!!
