The weirdest thing is that a load of USA citizens seem to think you're poor if you don't have a iphone. It's such a weird take, however it shows how good you can market to the usa to fleece them from their money.
Not really. It also applies to asian countries.
Yea and tbh they hype if having an iPhone isn’t there I’ve used androids all my life and I got my first iPhone (iPhone 13) 9 months ago and I genuinely don’t see the hype of most the features I’m supposed to “hype” about
Yep I tell people all the time that they are just following trends with no actual reasoning.
Nowadays people are also considering samsunga flagships so, this thinking will be eventually gone
Most USA users do not think this. I use iPhone and I can see why some people would want android.
I'm from India and once I had to explain to my iPhone user friends what iMessage and FaceTime are. They literally had no idea about these features. Literally, nobody cares about iMessage in India.
I can relate, 2 of my friends have an iPhone but they rarely ever use iMessage well because nobody uses cellular messaging and a lot of people think that iMessage is cellular messaging
Exactly none of my friends who own iphones ever uses iMessage 😂
yeah for that whatsapp is the main one for family and now insta for teens
True. Indian here… my friends who use iPhones still have the green bubbles, we literally don’t care as long as there’s WhatsApp.
That's great tbh
I bought my brother an android for Christmas and he cried. He was 15. Luckily, I included the gift receipt and he returned it for a two year old used iPhone. It blew my mind.
Time to ghost your bro'.
I'd take both the receipt and the phone back and keep my money.
What a waste. Next time keep your money.
Man, I just got the s24 ultra and this thing is top notch 👌 the features are just amazing and I've used android for years, but this last purchase I was actually considering an iPhone. After looking at their internal hardware and ecosystem, I decided there was no way in hell I was gonna sacrifice the better features, hardware, tech, and adjustments that android, specifically the Samsung Galaxy, has. The ONLY other phones I'd consider would be the newest Asus Rog, Think Phone, and maybe the new Moto flip. They had some pretty top notch features and hardware as well, specifically Rog, which I almost did buy.
I wouldn’t cry if someone were to give me a S24 or S23 Ultra but you probably gave him a boost mobile prepaid android phone so I don’t blame him 🤷🏻♂️
7:30 this is so true, I'm currently in highschool and one of my friends recently switched from Samsung to Apple because he wanted the blue bubbles and wanted to be in group chats. When he switched, he also got an apple watch which ties into your other point about the ecosystem.
He is a good man for that.
So based! Good for him. Thankfully he won’t have to put up with Android anymore!
This is exactly where the "broke Android green bubbles" stereotype comes from.. Females.
Women have openly admitted they will refuse a date with men if they have "green text bubbles". 🤦
People who claim this isn't reality are living in their own _bubble._
As someone who switched from android to iPhone in the last year, I do enjoy using iMessage a lot more than the android texting apps. As a graphic designer, I'm willing to pay extra for the outstanding UX/UI that is in Apple products
@@ThunderfallFilmshe literally got an iphone cause of FOMO, not better features which iphones don't have. that's messed up dude.
Speaking as an Australian living in a 50/50 iPhone-Android marketshare, nobody really cares about any of the "features" of iMessage. To us it's just "the text message app".
I don't know why people would want to limit themselves to a text app anyways. Like don't you have friends on Facebook, insta, etc? I mean I'm pretty much 90% done quitting social media, but even I keep them because they're useful to message people. Screw looking at Facebook or insta, but I'd rather that than do text messages.
Same in Europe with 30% market share
Yeah I don't understand the obsession with blue bubbles
Do people use the WhatsApp app a lot in your country?
@Nimisum
People naturally want to feel like they're part of an elite group. No matter how silly it or small it may be
All 3 of my kids have iPhones and the wife and I have a S24 Ultra and Pixel Fold. My oldest said that people that don't have iPhones don't have money. Mind you, this is coming from a teenager without a job and a free phone. I immediately told the kids that the phones they have now will be the last iPhones they will ever have unless they buy new ones themselves.
Based.
Yup, that's exactly what the evil leeches at Apple want your kids to think.
🗿
means you are the smart one 😂
great parenting lmao
Choosing a phone based on the messaging app is like buying a car based on the way the horn sounds
That’s a terrible analogy. We’re talking about a cell phone… is primary function is communication. Except modern day society rather text than make a phone call. Therefore, choosing a phone based on its messaging app is closer to buying a car based off of the horsepower it can deliver..
@@FlightBoyKizer yeah no. Any phone can msg, your just mad my analogy is spot on
@@FlightBoyKizerNo sir. I have an iPhone and have never used iMessage or FaceTime and it feels no different from my Samsung except for how it looks.
that's a horrible way to phrase it since a phone's primary is MESSAGING LMAO. By your analogy choosing a car based on the way it drives is a bad thing
@@JoeOf91 it’s obvious you didn’t understand my analogy if that’s what you got from it. Also a phones primary function is not messaging. It’s… wait for it,
Making phone calls
Speaking as an Indian....where the iPhone is now gaining some market share....a common user of the iphone in india uses whatsapp because almost everyone has a WhatsApp app for messaging, video call, voice call, sharing & storing documents and what not. The only reason people are now buying iPhones in india is Because now every other good phone is in that range and Plus iPhone's update game is really good. For iMessage its a just text message app.
Yup! I too own an iPhone but it will never be the dominant one! It will mostly restrict itself to around 20-30% at best.
And most of the iPhone people are buying are either 1-3 year old & bare basic 128GB models not, even the mid-level, so they are spending more for a lesser product.
Also the Android update game is picking up at a great pace. And the price bracket where people are buying those iPhones, most Android companies give 2-3 yrs of update & most of them switch their device after 3-4 years, not much of a difference.
Apple's philosophy doesn't really match with the majority of Indians & that's a good thing.
From an european persoective this whole blue bubble green bubble discussion is so funny to me. I live in Switzerland and everybody just uses Whatsapp. I‘ve never even used imessage. Most people I know that use an iphone just use it because i‘ts easier or they like the design or ios.
Pakistani here, same thing. I never heard of imessage until i got older and learned about it from netflix lol. We all were viber users and now WhatsApp users
Same here in Asia
Same here in Austria. Never even used iMessage before. And I don’t know anyone actually using it either.
I reckon it‘s the same in Asia with Line.
Here's in Greece it's Messenger, it's still Meta, but looking at this US perspective where iPhone is like a standard is so funny
Same here in Brazil 🇧🇷 Nobody uses iMessage, just WhatsApp.
2 reasons why it's not a monopoly outside US:
1. Whatsapp
2. Price
An iPhone in the US costs less than 1 month of minimum salary, while in countries like Brazil, it costs around 5-10 months salaries.
It is also kind of funny that Whatsapp is from US
I was going to make the same comment, most of the people in the US have no idea how expensive apple products are in Brazil.
But Brazil is a poor country. Y'all are still playing PS2 and PS3.
@@electrikoptik Brazil has the 9th biggest economy in the world, we abandoned ps3 ages ago, most people already have ps4 and most didn't change to ps5 cuz it's not worth yet because there's no games, anyway the reason is because of crazy taxes, when we buy on iphone we pay the price of 2, literally buying one for the government lmao
@@electrikoptik wow you sound like such a swell guy
What’s crazy… the fact I literally had the Samsung S24 Ultra for a week and returned it to get my iPhone 13 back. All. Because. Of. iMessage. Everyone within my immediate circle, family AND friends have iPhone. EVERYONE. I had the Apple Watch, TV, iPad, MacBook, but the moment I switch the sheer inconvenience of switching for myself and those that interact around was to hard. Had to switch back. As a Mexican that jumps walls, these walls in the apple garden were too tall my friend.
That's the stupidest reason to switch a phone I've ever seen
Seems to be a country, rather than a phone problem.
@@alcrian8627 you say that, but it's not uncommon. So, what you call stupid is just you not understanding other people. Stupid is a gross oversimplification for what you don't understand, and it's tempting because it makes you smart.

Apart from the US, basically nobody uses SMS or RCS anymore.
WhatsApp, Messenger, Telegram, Signal etc come to mind before even considering sending a SMS/RCS.
This is probably because, (at least in my country) SMS messages are limited while WhatsApp and the others use Wi-Fi or Mobile Data, which are basically unlimited.
The only time I personally use RCS is when I receive automatic texts from companies or when I can't connect to the internet.
We use SMS when we can't decide which other messaging system to use. I suggest Signal, Telegram or RCS; others suggest Messenger or WhatsApp. It is good as a common basis.
BTW, RCS does not work without internet connection. So you almost certainly don't get RCS messages when you can't connect to the internet. You probably get SMS messages then.
Honestly it’s confusing text messages is so much more expensive.. I can get unlimited WhatsApp for 25 naira that’s less than 1 cents sooo why not whatsapp
You SMS. RCS needs the internet.
No one outside of the US knows, uses or cares about RCS.
Norway use sms/ iMessage, snap, messenger
And watchapp or other apps if you have family or something in other countries

The walled garden is almost as bad on Windows or Android these days.

I like the freedom and independence! Isn't that's what America was all about? :O xD!!! I do have both iPhone 14 Pro Max and Samsung S23 Ultra and the S23 is like a 1 device that acts as an equivalent all 3 iPhone + iPad + a base model of a iMac. So the iPhone is basically my cheap camera cause the Sony Cameras a re 4x 5x the price of an iPhone and I am no pro xD!!!
Android user in Asia here. The biggest reason I'm not an iPhone user is because of this eco system. I want my freedom of choice when it comes to techs and gadgets thanks.
As long as it fulfill your needs, It doesn’t matter.
Two of my worlds are colliding here! I am an EU/French Antitrust lawyer and the EU has been searching into the practices of Apple for a long time now. I’ll send this video to my students, as I want their take on the ideas that you mention in this video. This is indeed all very complicated but props to you Marques for speaking so eloquently about this. Very interesting!
What's your general feeling about what could happen to Apple
Eh I wouldn't say eloquently. His explanation wasn't adequate. However his effort was good.

Just to note, the first Android Wear watches did try to support iOS devices from the beginning, noting the limitations available since Apple wouldn't allow it to tap into the walled garden. I remember trying this out with a Moto 360 and it was a super limited experience. They eventually just gave up and future versions stopped trying.
Not mentioning this in the video was a bit of a blunder...
Exactly. Dumb ppl like to say "but samsung and google do the same thing" without noting that its apples fault bc they block it on their end.
Also it's important to point out that Android watches work with ANY android device, so the argument is really not the same as the Apple Watch. This means there's not just 1 company holding the monopoly over the ecosystem - anyone can be a part of it. There's various brands of watches and switching between those is seamless and non-restrictive. Apple is the one that doesn't like open source and wants to block compatibility.
@@MartinodFExactly. He omitted a lot of context in order to favor Apple.
@@spriteqcx0Yup! Also we have AOSP(Android Open Source Project) anyone is able to custom make their own Android/Version OS & yet be compatible with Android.
This interconnectivity and never feeling like I'm tied down to just one brand is what makes Android so amazing. I can use my OnePlus phone with my sony earphones and my smasung smartwatch and it all just works. At this point I feel that Apple is almost more like a fashion brand that wants to keep you hooked rather than a tech company.
Kid is mad that he can’t afford an iphone lol. It’s ok bro grapes that you can’t reach are always sour

Apple is a monopoly in Switzerland. I swear, since 2007, every other device there is an Apple. Even in the public sector. No cap. They _love_ Apple. As if other tech companies don’t exist.
As someone living in South Africa, one of the main reasons why Apple is not a monopoly in some countries is because it's too expensive. It's exactly because of this that owning an iPhone or apple products is a status symbol in many countries
Mobicel users 😂
XIAOMI: hold our Tsingtao 🍻🍺
Not a status symbol, a symbol of the tech illiterate.
Wrong. It's not because it's expensive. Tractors are expensive and are not a status symbol.
Apple is a status symbol because it has positioned its brand as a luxury brand and marketed it as such. And because people are DU MB AF!
@@costafilh0 Xiaomi has positioned itself as a CHEAPer Version of 🍏 It even sells its Smartphones as Affordable 🍎 Counterparts
I live in England and I can confirm growing up through my teenage years people were elitist with Apple being the only good phone product. I owned Samsung for most of my life and I felt pressured in a way to switch. People would make jokes that an Android phone was a phone for drug dealing.
Apple is the _ne_ _plus_ _ultra_ of consumer electronics. The rest don’t matter.
It still has that image in the U.S tbh
Probably their personal phone is an iPhone 😜
If you live in places like Cambodia, India, Philippines, Basically any asian countries, You will see a lot of teenagers using Android Phones more than iPhones and all they care about is powerful specs for gaming, They don't care about brand image like people in the US and UK
Most of the dealers I know in the US use iphone
Loving the Logic Instrumental!
Wechat example was so good. makes so much sense
the fact that USA citizen can't download a single chat app and keep saying blue bubble vs green bubble, blows my mind
you download all your other apps, whats so different of downloading another chat app that is more universal for everyone else
At least WhatsApp ist just better that iMessage …
What happens if you have two people that are using different apps?…one is using WhatsApp and the other is using a similar, but different app.
Just curious if that ever happens and how do they message one another?
@@mariussignorello exactly
because a new chat app comes out every five minutes. one day its aol, then the next day everyone switches to yahoo. then it's google, then now everyone has blackberrys and they are using blackberry messenger, then its facebook, then everyone just gave up and everyone has "generic text messaging" on their phone as a default anyway let's just use that. The USA is not "A" place. it is a microcosm of dozens of local cultures that work independently and it is not likely that the entirety of the population will agree on a communication app. And then if they did ... IS that communication a monopoly? What kind of Walled garden would that communication app put up such as hailing a taxi , or ordering food, or paying your bills ... I'm not a lawyer maybe Apple is a monopoly ... maybe they are not one this is a lawsuit that will take years to resolve. One thing that lawmakers can do today is put pressure on wireless carriers to make the default text messaging more robust, to essentially make Imessage redundant in the first place.
@@BassRacerx two reasons
Other apps allow crossapp integration
Apple doesn't allow other apps and other devices to utilize iphone to the fullest, only apple products can do that
Which is the monopoly problem in this case. It's not that everyone else' product is just shit compared to apple, it's that apple prevents others from reaching their audience.

What's SO weird to me as a non-American teen is the almost cult-like following Apple has amongst people my age in the US. Is it that their parents "just buy them an iPhone", like Cook said? Is it that the teens refuse to use any other phone apart from an iPhone? Why?? Why the over-reliance on iMessage? What's stopping people from going to the App Store and downloading a free app so that they can talk to their friends? I can't imagine just...refusing to speak to someone just because they have something different from me. Why is this so common in the US and almost non-existent everywhere else?
Idk man. Phone racism is one of the weirdest and most alarming things that I've ever heard of. I'm genuinely scared what this means for the future, when people indoctrinated on Apple grow up and get spending power.
It's somewhat of a feedback loop because kids will be ostracized and bullied if they don't have an iPhone. They ask their parents for an iPhone because they'll get made fun of if they get something else
Cause the iPhone is American, why would they choose other products beside their home grown companies?
In regards to the messaging app thing, having seen this in school, it is genuinely a case of most people being too lazy/uninterested to even consider using an app that isnt built in. That, and a surprising amount of people my age aren’t aware of the existence of apps beside instagram and snapchat, so trying to get any amount of people to use anything else is basically impossible. The people who have never even looked in the settings of their phone will never use third party anything.
Mid 20s EU-Citizen here.
It really is weird.
I use an iPhone for various reasons (mainly smart home stuff) but I’m pretty open for other devices as well and might switch when matter finally takes of.
And here it’s fine. I’m mostly using Signal and Discord for my communication. Half of my friends have Android phones and we’re all good. Basically everyone I spoke to in my life so far does not care about the phone. It’s the simple question of: WhatsApp, or Discord?
Of course I met people that say the moment I get my phone out: „Eww you’re using an iPhone? What’s wrong with you, everyone knows iPhones suck“ to what I respond: „Why do you care about my choice of phone?! And when it’s so bad why would I care to use one?!“ That shuts up most people.
I also experienced the other way around when I was using an Android phone.
It’s just stupid. Let people use what they like and move on. I seriously don’t get why people get so upset over a friends choice of phone.
We all have our preferences and needs and buy devices that fit these needs. And when my application requires an iPhone to work properly, I’m gonna use an iPhone.
@@haruyanto8085 both google & android are also from usa

As a developer, I hate Apple with a burning passion. Their walled garden makes it incredibly difficult and expensive to even try to export to the Apple market from any device they don't make. I think their entire business model is anti-consumer, which is ironic because the thing they tout the most is consumer approachability in their UX and product integrations.
That’s odd. Because “as a film composer and content creator, and prosumer” I need the walled garden for my workflow to work. Unfortunately no other company or group of companies bother to step up and match that level of integration and seamless workflow with their own apps and development. Imo, Apple is the only hardware/software company that provides the goods and services that my industry and my workflow demand.
User may approach, but he may never leave. User is trapped inside.

@@TheSteveSteeleWithout a developer, not possible. You are not understanding his point & what you presented is not an argument compatible with his OG argument!
iPhone started in the US and had a deal with AT&T, creating a nice lock-in for Apple. Over time a lot of users got used to using Messages and the rest of the ecosystem.
In the meantime in Europe WhatsApp became very popular and cellular companies were pushing a lot of different brands of phones.
That's the case on Brazil too.
Yeah pretty much, the monopoly isn't Apple, but the US carriers
I'm from the us, and as a youth, I definitely see how dominant iPhone is in our population. One huge thing that I have a problem with as an android user is imessage group chats. Because imessage group chats have so many features that are compromised with an android, I am not allowed to join many of my sport and work group chats because the group chat is an imessage group chat, and I have an android. Not only do the people using imessage not want to give up their blue bubble, but the iPhones won't even let them add an android user to the group chat without creating a whole new chat.
my work chats on my android are a mess. every time we need to add or remove a new coworker we've got to make an entirely new chat. sometimes a coworker will talk in one chat and someone else will respond in another. so frustrating
Go you for not being afraid to be different. Apple ain’t all that, and I always think their greed will catch up to them sooner or later
I understand- I use a pixel and I am in middle school and people DO care too much. The “you have an android?!” gets exasperating after a while
They have no problems adding the Google Assistant or You Tube!

2:09 what missed opportunity to use the Apple Campus to visualize the walled garden. Quite literally lol
Funny watching this and his whole background is full of Apple products. Love this guy! Awesome Tech. Guru!
One thing to mention: Apple products can get crazy expensive in some countries, like Brazil, and we are a big market. And it's wild: In the US, both the base Galaxy S23 and the base iPhone 15 came with a $799 price tag. Here the the S23 costs around HALF the iPhone 15 price. Or the fact that here I can buy 3 Galaxy Buds for the price of just 1 Airpods. It literally is a luxury company for us. So here, Apple is much more a status symbol than anything else. I still see the iPhone 6, 7, 8 commonly around here, 'cause the newer ones are so expensive that people simply can't buy, but people will not give up on the status of having an Apple product. And Apple goes miles here to sustain that position: the first official Apple Store that opened in Brazil, opened in the most luxurious mall in Rio, next to the most luxurious fashion brands. It's insane.
Or like in Poland few years back, that base iPhone cost 2-3 times the minimum monthly wage. Good luck with saving for a year just to have a phone., it'll never be like in the US with 90% market share just for that reason.
Back when I first started using Samsung, this was true in the US too. The Galaxy lineup had features and specs that the iPhone wouldn't have for another 2 or 3 years and was still roughly half the price of the iPhone.
Today, the prices are pretty much the same. Samsung still generally has better specs, but the prices have caught up as it became known as pretty much being the top of the line Android in the US.
As a brazilian myself, I can confirm this pathetic reality.
Nothing like paying 2x the price because of taxes.
And, hilariously, 99% of the people here thinks they're getting a completely superior device over your Galaxy S23+.
Ignorance can certainly be bliss sometimes...
@@michawnuk8114 In Brazil, the iPhone 15 pro Max costs practically 10x the minimum wage...

Yo this is the realest analogy. I use to work in a cell phone store and I am a huge android person. I had someone who wanted more utility, flexibility, innovative systems. I recommended the an Android device at the time that fit all what they were looking for. The very next question "does it work with airpords or apple watch?" I then knew it was a no go and shifted to iPhone. They could not break out of the ecosystem.
Android does with with airpods. They work honestly perfectly fine. I use Sony WH-1000MX5 headphones and airpod pros gen-1, they both work equally well.
They designed Airpods and Apple Watch very well too. They should be awarded for it, and they are being awarded by user retention. What’s wrong with that?
@@ahmetemreboyaci what's wrong, is that if a company makes something sooo good and sooo innovative, then they should have the confidence to say like "hey, check this out, isn't this cool, feel free to check out everything else, but eventually, ur gonna come back to use cuz we're the best"
But instead the company goes, "hey we got this new thing, that no one ever has made, check it out... But we're gonna make it sooo hard for u to try anything else so that u can compare if it's still the best..."
Also, just for info sake, even comparing the power of an android chip, and an iPhone chip is becoming sooooo difficult that Test companies like Geekbench are admitting that their score now won't even be accurate because apple doesn't allow their tests to be run for a fair comparison...
It's really good that they made the best phone, the best ipods, the best watch, the best everything... But if it IS the best, then let us see for ourselves right??? Imagine Bugatti or Rolls Royce making u sign a contract demanding a special license that only let's u drive their cars and disallows u from driving anything else...
Last point I could make, is that suppose a guy only wants the best camera setup as his smartphone... He would go for the Sony... (Imagine he REALLY wants the DSLR integration feature, and wants to connect his Camera and Phone as one) But he also wants a good watch... But can't use the Apple watch... Also he needs some good buds... But can't use the IPods... (I mean he technically can, but if the features that make these gadgets THE BEST aren't available to him anymore, then what's the point??)
Also his phone wont seamlessly integrate with his laptop (it by default is a Macbook as it has the best battery to performance right now) So he can't also use half of the features of his Macbook just because he doesn't have an IPhone...
I really hope u see some clarity here...
@@benjackson6260 you ARE free to check them out. But Apple doesn’t have to go out of their way to make Apple Watch, Airpods, etc compatible with a billion different types of Androids. People choose those devices because of their tight integration with iPhone, and since they are well designed as well, people don’t want to leave them.
@@benjackson6260 also Apple Watch is Apple Watch BECAUSE of its tight integration with iPhone. Most Android watches don’t even compete with Apple Watch because they have to support a billion different types of phones, different types of default messaging apps, different types of fitness apps, etc etc. I don’t want to deal with that. I’m paying a premium not to deal with that. Noone caressss, Android world is just too lazy to compete with Apple’s products so now they’re just attacking them for their success

That's a very nice analogy of the garden.
Sure, don't bring iMessage to Android - but at least support RCS. It's a global standard now, like USB C

The difference is that if the pixel watch will work with any of the android manufacturers while Apple is just Apple.
Just yesterday I paired my Samsung Galaxy Watch with my new Pixel phone.
Yes because Android is owned by Google and Google owns Pixel, do you understand now?
iOS is owned by Apple, therefore Apple watches will work with any Apple devices
While Pixel watches also work with Apple, but that's cause Google works with Apple to make some of their devices work together. While Samsung watches DO NOT work with Apple devices.
Is Apple being Anti-Market now?

The social psychology of owning an iPhone vs Android is fansinating. I'm well into my 30s and have had a cell phone in one form or another for over 20 years yet never owned an iPhone. Currently rocking a Pixel 6 and maybe will upgrade this year to the 9 but don't need to as it still works flawlessly. I'm in a group chat with old college friends and one of them trolls us Android users about making the bubbles green and hints that we are poor/broke because don't have an iPhone. I make good money working in Software and could've easily had every iPhone over the years without breaking the bank. I'm just a Windows/Android guy and also into PC gaming so the ecosystem makes sense to me. Some people eat the marketing up like chocolate cake.
It's funny how you deride the iPhone guy, only to close your "logic" by saying you like the Pc/Windows/Android ecosystem...which is EXACTLY why iPhone users like their iPhones..the closed garden ecosystem. For an IT guy you don't seem very bright 😂

On the examples at the beginning:
The sony e mount is an open standard from sony, so any lens manufacturer can make a lens that mounts to it without paying sony fees or licensing.
The headphone connector you showed looked like a 2 pin 0.75mm or 0.78mm plug, not a proprietary connector. While not a specific ppen standard, it is just copper contacts that any cable can attach to, no restrictions imposed by the cable or earpiece manufacturer.
The apple watch on the other hand is programmatically restriced in its software from pairing with anything except the iPhone, despite using an open standard (Bluetooth & WiFi) to connect, that is the difference
What a isheep
I think he several times conflated the issues of apple the company and apple the ecosystem in his examples with Google. You can take you google watch and use it with any other Android phone - you have a ton of options about what company you purchase you phone from. You aren't locked into one company.
Thank you for pointing it out. It's funny how Marques somehow finds ways to say Apple isn't so bad.
true about Sony. but look at cannon :)
@georgivasilev3417 i am not aware of this, will it be an issue for me when choosing which camera ecosystem to follow? Thanks for the info
Hmmm. From the start of the video: the lenses between Sony and Canon can be adapted to some extent, and the headphones that were shown can be used with other branded cables that have the right connector. Those examples arent fully walled off in the same way that the watch is entirely incompatible with another phone brand

This is such a weird comment lol
i find it almost hilarious how big the green bubble debate in the US is, for me in germany i dont think i know a single person using imessage, everyone just uses a 3rd party software like Whatsapp
Quick edit on may 14th.: one of my main issues is that iMessage clearly divides people into iPhone and non iPhone users, whilst as some people point out WhatsApp is basically a monopoly in Europe which is true, people CAN, they have the literal ability of download it and use it and not being bullied for doing so on a different device, here it is a software issue where in America it is an hardware issue, and as the name suggest it can be "solved" with a "soft" fix instead of a "hard" fix that would cost about a 1000$.
And yes it is a choice to use android over iOS but that is not the issue the issue is gatekeeping and bullying by corporations for which there is no reason
It's kind of like if someone insists on using Skype to message you in Germany instead of using Whatsapp. Then all of you Whatsapp users will make grief to him/her for not using Whatsapp, it's like that here.
Same here in Ireland, I’ve owned almost every iPhone, I don’t even remember the last time I sent an iMessage! I don’t even have the default message app on my home screen. Most of my friends have iPhones, but we use WhatsApp for the most part or other 3rd party apps, never iMessage.
I live in Belgium, and as long as i can remember, and as long as Whatsapp has existed, my friends and family all use whatsapp to message or even call eachother. Even my boss uses whatsapp to send pictures and info.
I'm so confused about all these blue and green bubbles, i barely even touched the standard messaging app on my phones in the last 10-15 years.
I use WhatsApp and iMessage daily. iMessage is by far and away the better experience.
your imessage in Germany is WhatsApp. the app itself is irrelevant, what matters is what everyone around you is use. Just so happens to be iMessage in America

@@iseptimusestás equivocado. Es una analogía completamente válida y correcta.
When we started talking about these green and blue bubbles, I never realized it. I don't know anyone other than some companies that use SMS/iMessage. Other people, as a rule, use WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, etc., regardless of the operating system.
Just to add a couple of things to the China example that weren't mentioned in the video because of its intended scope; as someone who's lived in China for 17+ years:
1. If you've paid any attention to the news within the past 5 years or so, the media always brings up the various stipulations of moving into the massive, alluring Chinese market; most notable of which is requiring foreign companies to pick and choose at least one Chinese company to partner and SHARE TECH AND INFORMATION with. This has always been true and can be very prohibitive to many companies that have reservations about sharing their patented technologies and/or processes.
2. This ties into the above point, but once tech is shared with a Chinese company and/or new upcoming tech is revealed to the worldwide web, especially in the smartphone industry, it tends to spread like wildfire across the Chinese side of the industry and takes very little time doing so. When iPhone X was first unveiled, it took at most 2 days and less than a week for EVERY SINGLE Chinese smartphone company to debut their Android, iPhone-look-alike smartphones with very similar capabilities.
Marques is absolutely correct when he says that super-apps like Wechat are what make choice of phone OS ecosystems and brands trival in markets like China, but such trivialities can also result from other factors that we should all at the very least be aware of.
Microsoft got sued for monopoly practices for basically shipping windows with their internet browser and making it default one. What Apple is doing goes WAY over that.
There’s not a snowball’s chance in hell that the plaintiffs won that suit, unless you are leaving out some crucial details.
@@yourwifesboyfriend6081 It was a very long time ago, and they *absolutely* won that suit because tech illiteracy was even more ridiculous back then.
Not just that. They also told Dell (and other PC manufacturers) that if Dell wanted to ship machines with Linux on them, they'd STILL have to pay for Windows licenses on those machines. You're vastly oversimplifying how badly Microsoft was abusing its monopoly position.
@@JanGoh-jb5ge just read the wiki article. The suit was just for the Internet browser. I am not arguing about the other stuff they did, they did do them. But this suit was just about the browser.
@@Zalian You’re right. The wiki page reads as if users couldn’t install other browsers, which would definitely fall within antitrust laws. I was just a few years old then, so I don’t remember if that was the case. Another issue I could see is if manufacturers wanted to install other browsers, but MS was prohibiting them from doing so, but even that could open a can worms. In that case, Apple isn’t comparable because they’re their sole manufacturer.
the intro confuses me, I don't think vertical integration has anything to do with incompatibility with other brands. isn't it just when a company has control over it's own supply chain and manufacturing from top to bottom?
Same thought here
I was thinking that too, but maybe the term can be used in a few different ways. I suppose in the case of the earbuds for example they're vertically integrated in that they only work with each other. If they were horizontally integrated the company could buy generic tips to pair with the earbuds, but since they've designed them to be unique they're the only people who can legally make them.
Yeah this guy just doesnt know what vertical integration is
@GarryDeWitt You are correct, his examples of vertical integration are 100% wrong. What he is describing is a proprietary product ecosystem. Vertical integration would involve you taking control of different stages of the production or distribution processes within the industry. For example, if you made a camera lens, and also owned the glass company that manufactured the glass for your lenses.
Exactly, also means that they have control over their software and hardware so that it works efficiently. In this case apple has vertical integration yes, but that's not the problem, vertical integration is just a feature, something they have that they use to lock people in the ecosystem, so it becomes hard for them to leave the iPhone.
Imagine if at 1:08 MKB said "I won't even DELVE into this...." 😂
In Nigeria, having an iPhone means you are rich, so many people only buy an iPhone even if they dont use up to 20% of the real features. Especially girls.

She picked 7+. I joined my friends laughing. Was actually laughing at her lack of understanding.

Using iMessage is as American as measuring temperature in Fahrenheit or distance in feet/yard/thumbs/knobs.
The rest of the world is like: why? 🤔
Pretty simple. Imagine Europe. Now imagine all of the European countries fall under the same country code. Why in the world would I need to use a 3rd party app that spies on me to communicate to close people? Americans never needed a 3rd party app to communicate to each other in the first place so the eco system didn't catch on as much as Europe. And Apple made it so that their users didn't have to necessarily install those apps. After 15+ years of not improving their text function, Android finally implemented a similar system to Apple and is now crying foul that it's not compatible. GTFO.
@@jhpjhun That's a cool story but why are you crying?

It’s indeed like Canon lenses only working with Canon cameras. If Canon had 60% market share, it broke your lenses if you used an adapter, banned all adapters from other vendors, made it so photos taken with other cameras cannot be printed on Canon printers and if you had another printer your Canon camera would only print at 20dpi. That is indeed illegal.
Yeah I like Marques but feels like he's lost in the weeds on this one. The issue isn't that apple makes good products that work with their phones, it's that they so actively disallow others from making a competing product because they own most of the market that product would be used with. No one can make a competitor to say the apple watch because apple won't let it work on their phones
Well not illegal, nobody would just buy Canon and they would go out of business. Nikon at this point is very protective of Z-mount. No Sigma art lenses for Z-mount. is that illegal or just protecting its own business.
@@ValtersPelns if they would do it with 60% market share that would be illegal and actually exactly why anti trust laws exist. They would not go out of business with that market share, your assumption that nobody would buy their products is clearly disproved by reality. We had monopolies and anticompetitive behavior exhibits from many companies, Apple is just one of the many.
@@stereodark Well, costumers vote with their wallets. If being locked is okey, then they buy in. 🤷 Legal, illegal thats on countrys law shoulders. As long companies are not talking internally about pricing agreements I am fine with it.

It strikes me as unfair that you can execute your vision, but when you're successful with that vision (i.e. 60% market share), you're suddenly doing something illegal, and you're forced to change.

What continually is left out of this narrative is that the "messages" app was normal texting when the iPhone launched, and until iOS 5. At that point they hijacked normal texting (which by and large had become unlimited at that point) and layered on iMessage basically without consent.
Many people weren't even aware this had occurred. I've heard from multiple people who'd switch from iOS to Android, where messages to the person who switched would never be delivered. Causing the switcher to unknowingly ghost their Apple friends. This was a very real problem that eventually they remedied, but it speaks to how the public at large wasn't even fully aware of the switchover.
This is actually still happening. It's like iMessage locks your phone number to their ecosystem, and texts won't be sent to the person's new phone
@@AbstractWerks Right, and you CAN unpair it, but frequently people are not aware what's going on.
I was going to the comments to point this out, but you described it perfectly. The problem really is the default messaging system we rely on was placed as a 2nd priority to iMessage and it grew into what it is today. While you can deregister your phone number from iMessage (which requires you to know this), it doesn't allow users to turn off iMessages entirely.
I've personally experienced converting from iPhone to Android and not being able to message previous groups properly with what was once iMessage-only groups. I can send texts that are received by others, which they see as SMS/MMS, but I can't receive from any of the groups. Messages sent from the group are still only for iMessage receivers and I get completely left out. Only remedy I've found to this is for every iMessage user in that group to delete the thread so it can recreate as non-iMessage, which is awful. Compound that with any iMessage group I was once a part of and all those users have to delete the threads too. I've just decided its best to not even bug everyone and ask them to individually message me. There should have been an option for group messaging to turn off iMessage from the beginning.
the thing about this is imsg works with just an email, no phone number needed. when messaging the people who switched, you have to make sure youre texting the phone number and not the email
on my jailbroken iphone 3g there was an app called bitesms which is pretty much what imessage is today but worked on both apple (jailbroken) and android

Apple's ecosystem indeed appears more like a vault these days. Companies should focus on innovation over monopoly. Competition fosters growth and it would certainly be exciting to see direct competition amongst tech giants based purely on innovation.
Apple has introduced M series chip, Vision Pro and many innovations in Mac like Dynamic Cache and game porting tools that takes games in weeks instead of months from windows to mac...
If a software feature with IP is deemed to be functional on other devices they could do something like lowering the years on the patent. What you’re saying is true but if I can’t be the sole proprietor of something for at least some time to reap the rewards I have less incentive to innovate
capitalism naturally leads to anti competitive behavior. it is thousands of times more profitable to prevent competition than it is to actually invest in it.

I'm a teacher and really like to share documents with bluetooth. The fact that you need some kind of trick like whatsapp, cloud storage or email attachment to send a document from an apple device to an android device is a big nightmare. In my humble opinion, this is such a basic functionality that the government has to step in and regulate it. Companies should serve the common good, or at least not hinder it. Else there is no reason for them to exist.
There is an app that is open source /platform agnostic called local send. As long as your on the same WiFi network.

We are an iPhone family my husband and I have every apple device. We decided to purchase our kids iPads specifically for the iMessage feature because it doesn't require them to have a phone plan in order to make calls to friends and family. This is super convenient and has saved us money on phone plans. Obviously the one caveat is that the person who they speak to must also have an Apple device.
coming from a person that was all android before the usbc iphone. i bought that and i had a smartwatch (samsung). nothing worked correctly. i hated it. glad they are going to court.
I think it also rings back to the IE/Microsoft lawsuit. It wasn't that IR and Windows were bundled together, but they let IE do things better and faster than other programs on the kernel level so that no other browser could compete. They don't allow other things to work like the apple watch does so no competition can possibly arise realistically
Not really a fair comparison. If you bought a PC you had windows and there was no other choice. There are other phones even beyond the Samsung
@@customledandfiberopticsinc2756 well I mean, you do have options if you buy a PC. You can get ChromeOS which is honestly not half bad nowadays, Linux, and then there's Macs. So in that respect I'd say it's a pretty fair comparison. There's plenty of smartwatch options out there that "work" with iPhone, but are limited in capability purely due to the fact that it's paired to an iPhone, and that's not by the smartwatch manufacturers choice. It's more akin to if Microsoft limited the DPI or input latency on my mouse because I didn't buy the stupid bendy mouse that they make. And then they also made it to where that stupid bendy mouse doesn't work with any other operating system. Wouldn't that be insane?
@@CyanaraOfficial Bad take because he is referencing the Microsoft Antitrust case. Back then Microsoft had a marketshare of like 95%. (Linux and MacOS did exist back then too though.)
I'd argue however that there is no point in letting the monopoly happen when it's obvious Apple is engaging in extremely anticompetetive behavior AND at a near 90% market share in the next generation of consumers. So them getting a monopoly and holding it anticompetetively is just a matter of time.

You are so right about the Blue/Green bubble issue with teens. When my son started high school, he was using a galaxy s20 plus and loved it. Within in 2 weeks of being in 9th grade, he asked if I could get home an iphone since he was now known as the green bubble kid and the kids would tell him he must be from a poor family since he didnt have an iPhone. We got him the iPhone 13 Pro Max and he was the onky kid in his class to have the "latest and greatest" iPhone. Needless to say the kids stopped picking on him.
what a cruel world we live in now…

Question marques hey how to download the latest iOS software for an 2017 Mac book pro
The examples in the beginning refer to horizontal integration, not vertical integration. With horizontal integration, a company starts producing new items which are at the same level of the value chain of the ones it already produces; meanwhile, vertical integration is the process by which a company incorporates part of the supply chain. The examples of the iPhone and the Apple Watch is clearly a case of horizontal integration because they represent two complementary products
Pretty sure your definition of vertical integration is wrong. In the case of apple it means that it not only build the phone (like e.g. Motorola), but also designs the chip, develops the OS and controls the app market
Controls its own app store. Not the total app market. Just the one on its own devices. They're very careful with who they let touch the OS
their requirements for building apps is insane, and you need to pay just to build and deploy on the app store, you need special software in order to code the apps, its just a bunch of hops they want people to jump through to lock them down once they are in.
