I'm surprised by the environmental score going to Apple. Apple phones while made from recycled materials are made in such a way that makes repairs very difficult compared to most Android phones. One could argue that Apple's poor repairability contributes more to e-waste than Androids. Surprised that didn't get a mention.
Did you check Arun's previous video. He visits the iPhone recycling factory. They want every iPhone to be recycled. I don't see that from Samsung and certainly not from Xiaomi. And nowadays most phones are full of glue. Apple sucks in repairability because of the vendor locked parts etc.
In my opinion, it isn't a question of who is the best. It's about who is the best FOR YOU. For example, for companies which need everything to work seamlessly, IOS is better. But for people who want more customisation and features, Android is better. It is also a manner of preference.
@ShaneStanley109 fact, both of these guys has Apple everything, ain't shit android except them showing it in this video lol Like you really expect me to believe these guys like android when they're some of the top phone reviews on TH-cam over 5mill subs & they gonna act like iPhone wasn't their choice base off battery life & BRAND
@@f1tzy_469Samsung is better in 2024, I’m an iPhone user. I want to switch. Push down the need to defend the iPhone and you can really see the difference and value in the S series from Samsung. Just Dex alone blows iPhone out of the water. Being able to use your phone as a capable computer, what?!?The only reason I don’t switch is the ecosystem Apple has, but at a certain point, I just feel trapped.
@@ZyronicKronissy It is all about what a particular phone offers (even if it is just status and social image) to a specific person (for me if is better than for you, for example).
Exactly, even his photography debate didn't talk about the actual photo quality but instead about some rare random bug where it didn't take a photo when he clicked suddenly. This doesn't happen to most people but because of that he gave apple more points? Instead of talking about the actual photo quality he's mentioning about some ui bug. That's beyond biased and went into stupidity right there.
A negative point on the eco-friendliness of Apple is that they are strongly anti-repair. They make it near impossible to repair, even with the Apple care program. It's just to silence the Right to Repair movement. Edit: By the Apple care I meant that Self repair service they launched. I'm talking about that. You don't need to remind me on every one of the 50 comments.
Great colab and I really liked the video! However there is one thing I gotta say. During the eco conscious category one thing you skipped over was repairability. That is arguably the most important part of an eco phone and android is a clear winner there with apple doing things like software locking parts etc.
My big thing with the eco conscious was that they compared companies as a whole. Like Samsung, Sony, etc do a lot more than just phones that will affect them getting to carbon neutral whereas Apple's biggest thing is the iPhone. Not sure exactly how to convey this, more so just that carbon neutral company wide isn't an apples to apples comparison when comparing android to ios
@@brochard44 Well, for apple there is now a self repair program which makes it easier to repair phones, even though if you rent the tools from apple it would be so costly but ya, now software locking is no longer a problem
@@FlyINGpigOOO their repair program is basically useless. It's a complete pr stunt and for basically all the parts they sell getting it done at apple costs like 10-20$ more. And independent shops can't use them because the cost of the part is so much if they want to make a profit they have to charge more then apple would be a lot.
MKBHD talking like an Apple rep for the whole video... "here's a positive point for Android, BUT here's how you can view it negatively, AND Apple can do XYZ so..."
But apple IS better tho. I have never used an iphone in my life for the sheer reason that I can't afford it but I don't bark on an I phone user every time they tell me how their phone is better than mine.Infact I agree with them. I phone CREATED the smartphone industry, android is just figuring it out till today & while android may bring variety, experiment & customization in the industry the apple ecosystem being superior in every way is undeniable. They even make movies on the mac, not on windows. Says a lot.
@@apetogetherstrong4243 I disagree. I don't think one is better than the other. Depends on your use case. If you use your phone as just a phone, with some web browsing occasionaly, a $100 android phone is the best. If you're looking for a good allrounder for around $400, you can go for a iPhone se if you want good software support, a pixel 5a for a good camera or any Xiaomi phone if you want it to be ok at everything, but not exceptional at anything. So you can't really say one is better than the other.
@@dirksplithof3174 the thing is if you have 6 goldchains in your neck & you stand in the middle of the street & scream what phone should I get, you will not get the reply of "get a 1500$ android" It will be "get a 700$ iphone". Value for money is an excuse, the question was never was "which is the best phone for you" . It was "which is the best phone overall" . The best phone for me is the 250$ xaomi android I'm using right now that is a year old. But if someone's gonna ask me what is the best phone in the world since the first phone was ever released I'd not say android or blackberry. Android users & I phone users have formed cults in the tech community where the i phone users feel the urge to brag about their superior tech coz they can afford it & the android users have to come up with different categories, customizations to tear I phone down. The i phone as a piece of tech doesn't have any feelings. It won't feel validated if I say it's the best or the worst in the world. But it's the objective/undeniable truth that it is superior since it's first release by steve jobs & as a 250$ android user I don't hesitate to say so. The reason that it's treated more as a status symbol than a world class tech is the reason it has become a tough pill to swallow for android users. So what if I can't afford it, it's still the best. What's next...are we gonna say that a toyota is better than a mclaren coz it is cheap & has better mileage
I feel like I'm probably in the minority on this one, but this collab feels more like an interview. Both of you are very talented creators, but this video is driven very heavily by opinion. That said, all the decisions seem to defer very heavily to Marques's opinion. Marques is making very valid observations, but those same observations are very heavily based in circumstance.
My take to this is- In US the best phone is iOS just because everyone uses it. So that's why MKBHD's opinion was more based on that. However outside US markets, Android has the main market. So it's not a minority in many of the categories.
It coz not many people can afford iphones but that's doesn't mean they are holding s22 ultras and oneplues or even Samsung A series no they are mostly getting xaiomi phones which are best in price to performance compare to every other android brands but anyone who could afford to buy at iphones prices I bet you 95% of the time they pick Iphones over xaiomi or Samsung 1000$phone that gonna become obsolete in 2 year both support and performance lag
Millions of people in Europe are using iPhone. It's very popular but you have other markets where Huawei is extremely well received. Samsung is also huge because both phones have great low end models.
I've had Androids most of my adult life, so a few months ago I decided to take the IPhone 13 Pro Max for a spin, and I have two good things to say about it - the battery life was phenomenal, and I loved the solid build, but that was all I liked. I lasted a week, but returned it in favor of my S22 Ultra. I just need to be able to customize my phone and I rely on its ease of use features like single gesture closing of multiple open apps. Apple does what they do very well, and their devices are well built, but if you want greater control of your device, IPhone isn't a good choice.
I think Android should have got more than 2.5 points, but most of these categories are very close and subjective and depend on how you see it. iOS is more reliable, Android is more customizable. But both are constantly improving and copying each other. At the end of the day, it's all about preference.
Nah, it was basically clear idiocy there, no offense. iPhone isn;t the best at photos, but I'll choose iPhone. iPhone literally uses the least recyclable materials and packaging, and is the most anti-repais, but because they market their Eco-Friendliness, it wins. iPhone sucks at features and is basically a few generations behind, lets call it a draw. iPhones have no options, and cost quite high, Android clearly has more options that can get better value, let's call it a draw... oh wait cut cut.
Only thing I hate about android it's to fragmented hence the camera app problem maybe If they worked more towards one universal system for all android phones would help?
@@nikhilpaleti3872 They also created a comparison environment where it's easy to default to iPhone by drawing in a garbage Android phone as comparison. Such a clickbait video.
I think calling it "Android" vs "iPhone" is inherently problematic as Android should be against "iOS" since Android is NOT a phone, but Android is an operating system applied to thousands of phones every year and an iPhone is the phone exclusively able to use iOS. The closest comparison would be iPhone to Pixel since Pixel is produced by google directly. The big thing that Android wins in is the variables of choice that iOS doesn't have. If I can only afford a low end android, I can get one and update later to a flagship one.
In my opinion, not Pixel but Samsung. Google seems to be slowly giving up on their Pixel, not releasing in some countries and a lot of their Google ads now promote their Samsung partnership and show off Google services on the Samsung device ecosystem.
@@seicgames4587 Samsung is integrating Google Messages on their phone better than Pixel phones are. It’s crazy. Right now the only thing Pixels really have going for them is natively running GCam which is still the best software based solution in my opinion.
@@seicgames4587 I would only say Pixel because Pixel is produced by the same company producing the operating system. So it’s not a matter of the best phone running android, it would be iOS on iPhone vs android on Pixel. That being said if we are just talking phones, then that should be more about features then operating systems. It’s just a hard Feild to play in since android as a system is pretty much made for phone companies to adopt and tinker with while iOS is behind the gilded cage of iPhone.
Love both of your guys but really felt this video was biased a bit too much on Apple's side of things - - a lot of Apple features that they said people can't live without are limited too US - outside of that, even iPhone users have/use a lot of other options - usb-c charging, plethora of phone options, UI features, right to repair and repair costs, GOOGLE PHOTOS - so many options and factors that you could have made this video on! Comparing the average of Android against the strengths of iPhone 13 Pro Max would ultimately result in such a lopsided score :/
the most important thing why people love iPhones is the ecosystem and it’s not limited to US and I personally just can’t imagine living without it.. it’s also the one and only reason why I prefer iPhone over other phones
the apple features are not really only limited to the us. i live in the eu and pretty much only use imessage to talk to my friends (excluding apps like instagram because its a social media app). but its true that i dont really play games or do that sort of things on my phone just mainly communicating and maybe scrolling through apps like ig or youtube. to each its own though
@@johncoops6897 You realize that Samsung and other android companies were FORCED to do that. Apple did it first, and gave a bs story about being eco-friendly, even tho any person with an ounce of logic SHOULD realize that that is bs, as then apple sells the brick in another package, causing more packaging. But SOMEHOW, they got away with it and people pressured Samsung to do the same. not to mention Samsung was against this, and tweeted so, but after public response deleted those tweets
This one felt weirdly biased for you guys. There were certain times when iPhone won despite being the same or worse. For example, MKBHD said that the ROG phone had a better battery at 4:00 and he noted that a lot of android phones have incredible charging compared to the iPhone's "decent" charging. Despite this, it wins the point. For another example, Mrwhosetheboss says that for him, Android wins for the camera section, yet iPhone got the point instead of it being a tie. One more weird example is how in the eco-consciousness section, it's noted that the fair phone blows the iPhone out of the water yet iPhone still gets the point. Mrwhostheboss says that this is because he wants to compare flagship to flagship and that can be a fair point. But if you use that logic, the display section shouldn't be a draw because both parties agreed that iPhone screens are behind Samsung. Edit : reading the below comment taught me that some of you don't know where the bias is or what the problem i'm pointing out is. The problem is not that Android lost or that it was a close fight. iPhones are absolutely amazing and they deserve credit for that. Some of you have argued that it won so much because it was compared to all android phones and not just the best ones. If that was the case, that would be fair but The problem is that they don't stick to that perspective. There are MULTIPLE times where they shift to putting the iPhone against only a few Androids (like the eco consciousness section) in order to give it the win (and multiple times where it wins because its agreed to be generally better than most Androids despite being worse than the best in class androids). Shifting the comparison around to make one side more favorable is clear bias regardless of what side it's done for.
if we use your logic. then android wins in so many records. lol. basically, iPhone would be the most stable and yet... not the best when compared to the plethora of pillar or flagship strengths of each android phone.
I own both (android and apple), when it comes to freedom android is the winner. One don't have to be limited to apple's "we know what's best for you". Still,.. this video felt very biased to me as well. Apple is the winner even though Android has been doing it for years, really, come on now not by a landslide.
I haven't finished watching the video at all but this is almost a Marques interview but the issue with that is he's an Apple fan. So he'd just prefer it more. He tries to be as unbiased as he can but you can't disagree he is still biased.
yeah i felt like they mentioned how so many android phones do X better but then just gave the point to iphone after anyway... it was often so close that it should've just been a tie lol
@@heybagley bro so why don’t u say he is biased cuz he has an Samsung phone, you gotta understand that the Apple watch is way better than the Samsung one
The fun part is, apple was given a 3/10 for repairablity and the forces it’s users to pay 60% of the cost of the product to repair basic parts that could have been easily fixed for fraction of the cost. The only reason it won the that category was because of its insane ability to market itself out of all its problems
Bruh every company charges u more if you go and fix the phone on their stores, a lot of ppl complain about this, then just go to a 3rd party service its that simple, where i live we dont have apple stores and go to 3rd parties for repairs, i never have problems + half the price duh.
IPhone is crap. The only people who find iPhone better are the ones who don't know how to get the most of their hardware rigs. IPhone just restricts everything and for doing so, it's better for simple people. If you like not fully utake advantage of your money, buy an iPhone. If you want to take full advantage of the hardware, utility, customs, etc. Android phones are hands down the beast.
Shocker the man with the apple watch would vote for iPhone more 🤣 If you look at most phone comparisons from MRwhosetheboss, Samsung phones either draw with apple or beat them marginally, but now he's taking opinions form a person who clearly prefers iPhone, its a complete wash over with iPhone winning.... It just shows, make up your own opinion about the phone you want, everyone's views are subjective. 👍
that particular person is using a 1,5 year old Android phone as his daily driver, so your whining is kinda baseless. He's taking perspective as a whole user, the "safest" answer
Felt pretty biased towards Marquez's niche preferences. I've realised over the years of watching tech channels that Marquez has certain preferences and specific things he thinks are non-negotiable (his photo preference for iPhone processing when it's very subjective, the need to use the camera right in the IG app when you can easily take one natively and post it in the app after, the software hiccups in android that honestly are nowhere near as big a deal as he makes them, etc etc) that really aren't as important to I'd say majority of the tech community. Love his content but I don't fully agree with how objective these subjective ideas are made to seem.
He is becoming more and more biased towards Apple every tech video he makes. Have u watched his waveform podcast. That show should be called the apple podcast at this point. 80% of it is dedicated to apple products. Then 10% is dedicated to EV vehicles and tesla. And only the remaining 10% is spent talking about all other non apple products. I get it. Maybe apple sponsor him. But its Super biased and getting boring
imagine being conditioned to take camera in native app and then post to ig instead of expecting them to just work properly. my standard is high and i want the software to works for ME, not i work around with the software. and still, you're admitting that it is inferior experience compare to iphone
@@novadon4729 i don’t know i kind of understand him. I was all about android before going to my first iphone and i never switched back. But I’m no tech reviewer by all means, so your point still stands as well.
Emulators are a huge thing for me, as well as the S pen. I love being able to play Wii, DS, N64, whatever all just on my phone. I also like custom APKs if i ever wanna grab something that isnt on the app store. Apple is more secure, but Android is way more open.
I don't think Apple is more secure either to be honest. Just the perception they want you to have. So many lockscreen bypasses and stuff over the years as well as other huge security concerns on iOS
I used to be an Android user, and I think the S-pen is pretty useless, and more of a gimmick (I’m not an artist, so I never used it. But I’m not speaking for everyone) I also never trust APKs, since I got a virus from the last one I downloaded. So I’m personally fine with the fact that Apple is more closed and strict. But I will admit that I miss being able to play emulators and being able to download launchers to completely change the look of my phone. So overall, it’s more of personal preference on which phone is better.
@@gdspace5592 That's purely anecdotal. On the other hand I've never gotten a virus and even if I did antivirus can fix that issue. Why not have the option? Apple doesn't give you a choice whilst android does. You don't have to do it if you don't want to on Android but you have the option. Apple dictates to you how they want you to use "your" phone.
I just recently switched from my iPhone to an Android and I have to say that the freedom I have with an Android is exactly what I was missing with the iPhone.
Like what freedoms do you mean? Personally I don't feel like I customize my android phone too much, and iPhones always intrigue me, so I'm curious what you mean.
@@RonaldOlszewski i can download games which are illegal in my country, can't do that on Apple , also constant resistence from apple when i try to download a song
I was so hyped for this video, but I ended up watching 75% of it and then I just couldn't anymore. What the hell happened to MKBHD? That was an Apple fanboy talking there, not a reviewer... I have nothing against iPhones, but this is the least objective video I've seen on this channel. I know it's not your fault Arun, you tried to prove your points. And you were right most of the time. (Also, how the hell can a tech professional say there's not too much of a difference between the screens of S22 Ultra and 13 Pro? It's literally 1750 vs 1000 nits....? I work in a phone shop and have those two models in hands almost on the daily basis, and you can notice rightaway. The Samsung panels have more vibrant colors and they are crazy bright. My personal phone is the S22+ which is "less" bright than the Ultra and everything looks just like it should, even in the extremes, thanks to the Sunlight mode.)
@@jakub7244 true. in some phone reviews and comparisons he secretly gave points to iphone even though he said that samsung makes better photos but applemakes slightly better videos so point for apple lMAO
@Joshua Camarillo No cap bro... I used to love Marques, until this Video... Remember the part where he complained about Android deleting photos after some days ? Never experienced that in my Life.
@Dutchman Callypso.I definitely agree with your assessment, and the clear bias by Marques in this not-so-interesting video.Last year onwards,he seems to be an Apple fanboy, with Samsung being the second option for him,as if there are no other smartphone manufacturers.He can give excessive praise for example on the photo quality of the iPhone SE (2022 version), when that phone takes photos that are basically the same as the 2020 iPhone SE.Also,he was forgiving of the iPhone 12 phones not having higher refresh rate, but would crucify an expensive Android phone for not having it.Lately,he leans too heavily on the Samsung and iPhones.It's even evident in this video.That's why I prefer watching several tech reviewers on TH-cam, and honestly,Flossy Carter is one of the most honest tech reviewers out there, with no brand loyalty, but telling it like it is.
@@cal7772 Arun was super biased and MKBHD let him have the display and photography even though he disagreed. Imo iphone and Samsung battery life are on par, but like MKBHD said Samsung charges waaay faster
@@cal7772dude it’s obvious they’re biased. Look at all their iPhones reviews, nothing negative or pointing out that apple slows down old phones and buggy written software. But for androids they always have the tiniest things to say about such little things. This video is biased in the fact that THEY ARE AFFILIATED WITH APPLE!?
You can tell Arun is a big fan of MKBHD but I think that's what made this video kinda biased because you could see how Arun had different opinions on a few things but that would result in a tie, so every time that he might've disagreed it would be a tie. I agree with other comments, that you guys should have each had your score and then come up with a final rating or just leave those out for people to decide.
Arun is super biased and can turn discussions in iphone's favour. That's why even his positive remarks about Samsung 22Ultra were more of sarcasm. His argument never makes sense. Unlike MKBHD... he is neutral and explains the background and experience well before taking a call.
This one felt really weird to watch. It almost felt Apple sponsored. Because even in the cases where Android was the clear winner, MKBHD would stretch really far for iphone. I'm not necessarily team Android or iPhone. I think iPhones a better business phone and Android is better for leisure. But none of that seemed to factor into anything. The numbers didn't even Factor into anything
Yeah after the first part already (the screen) I knew it was going to be bs. A draw? When Apple's display is what you can find in 300 € Android phones? It has a lower resolution than most Android phones, the response time is slightly worse, and the touch sampling rate (what MKHD or whatever he is called talked about) is 240 Hz... compared to 1000 Hz on some Android phones. What a joke of a video.
The issue I've always had with android vs apple is you can't compare them. One is a single phone, another is a wide selection of phones. Apple has a new phone released every year, and that's the one people talk about. Android has so many creators, let alone phone models released, it just isn't fair to either side. Comparing companies to Apple, though, that's way more fair.
Apple sucks the prevent software downgrades. They don't allow newer backups to be restored to older ios. They also only allowed signed in IPSWS to be installed, if not signed in you are stuck on a slow phone.
yeah also another thing is that android is a universal software. Its used on every other phone. IOS is just used for iphones so its gonna be more optimized. Its gonna have more support. this should have been google pixel against iphone. Hoping google makes a top spec flagship this year as google is the only company that can beat iphone in software
It's interesting to hear that other people don't use the split screen feature on the Galaxy phones. I use it so often that when I tried to buy the iPhone 13 last year I had it for like a month and ended up returning it because I missed that so much. I didn't realize until then how important that was to me lol
Come ooon guys, you really went a bit rough on Android there.. I've been using Android for almost the last 9 years until I eventually decided in last year’s September to get the iconic iPhone 13, and am not regretting my decision to be honest ( well, maybe not much) but I still really miss lots of things that Android has such as missing what freedom really feels like. Dude, the ability of using any 3rd party device like watches, TV's etc.. so perfectly & full-features as well as the ability of charging anything using only one cable (usb-c) and the fact that apple lacks these stuff cannot be just ignored, like seriously you cannot act like naaaah it’s not a big deal. Also the split screen feature man.. I really miss this it was a huge thing for my daily use, the ability of multitasking was a game changer for me and mark my words, when apple does it people will go crazy about it! And yeah one last thing, the fact that I cannot go past 5 days in the call log to search for calls in MY phone that uses MY account which holds My info still makes me sick till this day.. I know that apple did it on purpose due to privacy stuff and props to them for giving privacy an important role in their approach, but every time I go to my call log looking for a number then I remember that I can’t do this on ios I go wondering what in the flarking hell they smoke in apple 😅. Still a great phone though, I am really pleased with my Iphone 13, it’s a great phone after all, but as I said you went a bit rough on Android guys though I really enjoyed this collab a lot! Keep up the good 👍
watches and TVs.. ok maybe its not the case to buy Apple TV even though im pretty sure the iPhone connects to any smart TV, but watches?? if you have an iPhone you dont even have to think about any other smartwatches than Apple Watch. The moment you have 2 pieces in Apple's ecosystem you will see what is Apple really about: the perfect compatibility.
"android has a slight advantage" - ok let's call this a tie then "seems like they are pretty even in this category" - ok apple gets the point! "several android models do it better, but some don't". = point for apple!
Apple still remains the winner after these comments, but it isn't _that_ drastic of a win. My opinion is that Apple has the edge, but doesn't blow Android out of the water.
@@paulstelian97 the point isn't about who's the winner its about how comparision was done. It was like marquess being on apple side, arun being refree and no one on android's side.
You guys forgot about something in the Eco Consciousness section, Androids are super repairable but apple doesn't even allow you to change any parts of it device edit:(guy's im not saying android should win this one im just pointing out that they forgot to mention repairability which should be varying factor in eco consciousness )
And the lightning cable, lack of ports on the macbook for years...apple makes HUGE profits from the adapters that they sell, and all those adapters, are extra e-waste
I usually agree with you, but this time, NO. They literally said that iphone displays are as good as androids. You shouldn't just compare the high-end phones, apple's 900 dollar phone will ship with 60 hz in 2022, where androids do it for 300 dollars. If you gave a draw in display, you should've gave them a draw in battery as well because of actual "fast" charging. You drawed android and apple in customization, just get a Samsung and dig deep enough, you just doubled your customization features.
I completely agree with this, if they give display a draw which makes no sense then battery is also a draw because charging IS just faster on android by alot
I enjoyed the video but overall, felt this was wrong, let me explain. You could compare ios to android (which versions?) Or you could compare apple to Samsung, Sony etc. (Brand) but this lop sided comparison was only ever going to land in one direction due to taking the strengths from one and the weaknesses from many. Not disputing some of the arguments, but I also think, spending more time with a phone results in learning the nuances and best settings, I agree iPhone makes it easy through its consistency, but that results in less time and patience with other brands to learn how they work best. Ultimately, its all opinion, and was an interesting watch/concept.

I would generally chose android as I am quite used to overall having the time to use the throughout my day, and it is very efficient and convenient for me as my daily driver. However I do also love Apple products as well, so innovative and nice looking designs . Although I am not taking any sides but I slightly do to have a preference of using my Samsung S22 Ultra
Same, I've always used android but there's just something to Apple, the aesthetic and how it looks and feels. Sometimes android feels janky with how many features it has but you always know that every feature on an Iphone has been optimized very well.
AND YOU CAN SEE THE BATTERY PERCENTAGE FROM THE SCREEN (which is one of the things I miss about android after switching from a hand-me-down Samsung Note 9 to a hand-me-down IPhone XS Max)
so true lol and the worse is that they didn't gave a point even for battery with the samsung ( samsung with always use last long 28 hours and iphone 15 pro max is 3hours )
MKBHD really sounds like a beginner to phones here. it even looked like the boss thought the same. Best value (pixel phones) like are you for Real? Many of the points are preference. As example i would rather have 9.5hours battery and really quick charge times than 11hours and extreme slow charge. Im not a fan of Android 12 compared to my good old oxygen but the look of the interfaces is soooo much Better on Android and even Better when customized Also for the elders (they might need a little help to set it Up for Them). But i Will give durability to iPhone. Camera is 50/50, iPhone takes pictures that comes out good very often and (some) androids takes just as good pictures with more features. But the fact that MKBHD is giving 2.5 to 7.5 is Crazy
Are things that Apple locks you in really worth calling "features"? I think Android should win this category, simply because it is much more flexible than Android and allows you to do a lot more things. For example: * changing many parts of the OS, like the launcher, keyboard, browser, lock screen * installing apps from outside the Play Store * full access to the file system * use it to do things you would traditionally do on a computer. You can do crazy things like coding, running all kinds of VMs and emulators. You can do all sorts of crazy automation with things like Tasker, like automatically opening the garage door when a message that contains a certain thing arrives. Android is more like "here's a set of tools that you can use to do whatever you want". iOS is more like "these are the things you're allowed to do and how you can do them".
I guess u missed their point Android does have way more features but It's (a lot of features ,small minority of enthusiaists) Vs (some special features, a large number of common users) When u compare like that the slim to none features of iPhone have more weight
isn t it unfair to take the flagships into consideration only under eco consciousness ? because marques compared the pixel with the iphone during photography...the problem he said with pixel doesn t happen on samsung...and also talking about battery isn t it better when you have 8+ hour battery life and yet charges faster than apple?
This video is proof that even tech enthusiasts like MKBHD and Arun can have favorite regardless of the actuality of that product. For me everything that Apple does for them Android does for me . Even their Ecosystem.
@@abubakrakram6208 there's many android apps that enable FTP (file transfer protocol). basically, you can turn your android into a server. I bet apple can't do that
iMessage is only important to Apple users as it can only communicate with other Apple users, so this is a confirmation bias feature. Android now has the equivalent chat, but most people I know use What's App (Europe), or Messenger (Australia) which are universal.
MKBHD is an Apple schrill. Even when the Android beat the iPhone, he was still choosing the iPhone for some other reason. How much was he paid by Apple? Android phones are simply better IMO that iPhones.
Its his opinion man, Tbh im an apple user and i agree that andriod is outstanding in some features and they were more “innovative” than apple But i just prefer apple products since i grew up using them, I can work with androids but i feel they are sometimes weird for me. Hopefully you will understand
Felt sad watching this video, 2 of my favorite tech TH-camrs being unreasonable. Sure iphone might be a better all around package but Android deserves more. It's also amazes me that mkbhd never picked iphone as the smartphone of the year.

Apple lock you in to their ecosystem and works better together with other apple products but Android gives you flexibility. Older Samsung phones were crap, but they have come a long way since.
There were many other android usability points that weren't mentioned like the USB-C, open source, how reliable the average flagship is and other stuff and again tho I love these two reviewers bt I fell that both were leaning towards the apple side of things from the start like
USB C, ultra fast charging, the fact that Apple just came out with a 120hz screen (pro and pro max versions only) while android has 144 and 165hz on the Asus ROG for instance.
I have owned a lot of phones; I used to love HTC, then I found Apple but then I dived back into Android on occasion. I currently have S22 Ultra and the iPhone 13 Pro. I love a lot of things about the Samsung... but I would give the edge to the iPhone as more intuitive and more user friendly for the average phone/camera/streaming person. That said, I think the marking should have been a lot closer than how it was done here, personally. The S22 Ultra is a beast of a phone.
@@light-qe3gv really depends on personal preferences. Just received my first Iphone, but already regretting getting an Iphone as I missed the time when I could easily customize my android phone.
@@light-qe3gv “scamsung”… Clever but incorrect. iPhones are very pricey as well. It’s a personal preference, IPhones aren’t better, neither are androids.
I feel like even if Arun disagreed with MKBHD they would still give the category in MKBHD's favour Arun himself said he preferred Androids photography over the iPhones same as batter because of fast charging in my opinion such categories should have been a draw or should have been more debated upon
One more such category I found was the one where they talked about Android's tons of features vs apple's exclusive few, like the ecosystem, airdrop etc and still gave the point to Apple. Whereas one thing they ignored is that it only works when both the devices you have are made by Apple. If you have a windows PC, things are going to suck bad with an iPhone, whereas Androids can be simply used exactly like flash drives with a USB cable which is ARGUABLY better than airdrop, because that way you can actually manage the data better on phone as well as on PC. Not to mention you do get features like Nearby Share which works fine.

really sorry to say this but this was a miss in my book. A bit sad to see this much bias from my top 2 tech reviewers. Definitely think that a lot of the categories where android would be a clear winner werent mentioned, and when there were ties, android shoudlve been a winner, whereas when apple lacked, it was made a tie. kinda expected better.
*I'm gonna be honest. It almost felt like I was watching an Apple Sponsorship.* *They were really trying to stretch so far for the IPhone when Samsung was the clear winner in most points.* *Imagine a draw for the best display? Can't believe it.*
Clear winner in most points? Which ones? Did you watch the whole video or just skip it. Dude its a matter of what you’r wannt from your phone ,like they’ve said i their video. Camera,battery,software…batter on android?….please! In the end take what you wannt but people uses iphone becouse its same good years after buying it,and android just cant keep with it,its a fact.
and they are 2 guys who have hundreds of flagships.. we shouln't trust them right? i had both, s22u and iphone .. apple wins period. you want freedom with your phone and file manager? android.. everything else is iphone
How did the iPhone win the charging category when it has slower charging compared to the rest of the competition? not to mention that it has the inferior charging port, forcing people in the apple ecosystem to carry two charging cables and just generally being outdated considering that every other phone uses usb-c. also, iphones did not deserve to win the sustainability category when you consider that they have the lowest repairability scores. you need 4 different screwdrivers to work on the iphone, does that not ring alarm bells? i love when tech youtubers get together and talk about technology, but in this video there was a strong level of bias in favour of the iphone.
Well, I thought MKBHD reviewed phones for everyone. But what he said was his personal bias because he is a hardcore Apple supporter. Plus, no one mentioned Pixels. Yes Apple can stand out a lot sometimes. But there is a clear bias in MKBHD's POV. No one went into the options for reparability, costs and all. I don't know how to put it. But even though Apple is doing the best they can, most of the innovations are happening in the Android gadget space. For everyone here, let me get this out there. Getting/ Switching to an android is like getting a chilled out room mate. Getting/ Switching to an Apple is like getting a high maintenance partner.
I would agree. There was definitely bias in several aspects of what they said. There are also tons of videos out there showing how even the new iPhone motion and action capturing isn't even close to the likes of Samsung and Pixel. Samsung has had some of the best low light cameras for years now and they mentioned Pixel instead. That was kind of all I needed to hear. I didn't even make it through half the video and had to stop. Don't know who either of these guys are but it was clear on their bias in multiple things.
1. Tried an iPhone 15 PM recently and it was not smoother than the S23u. Not even close. I even had to check the high refresh rate was turned on thats how bad it was. 2. Never had a photo not save on android... Is this a thing for anyone but MKBHD? 3. Havent had a core software glitch on android for a couple of years. 4. Software features: historical clipboard, customisation, better keyboard, t9 dialing, a home screen I can actually organise. This video was a waste of time.
i mean in his defense he works with these phones every day and is an aggressive user of both, so id say he knows what hes talking about… just because he sided with iphone more doesnt make him an apple fanboy lol. and idk why people think thats a bad thing, clearly apple is doing something right. honestly you guys call apple users sheep but this is a pretty good example of sheep mentality; like a product=automatic fanboy
@@TheAverageTargaryen Its a Joke (but with a hidden/underlying truth in it lol). But go read my below comment to matt if you want to read something (more) serious (and have quite some energy coz its one heck of a long ass comment, but i guess low energy isnt a problem for you at all as you seem to be someone who goes on walks quite often).
I use split screen feature a lot as well on my S21 Ultra. And I found out that I actually really enjoy using the pen from my Remarkable tablet (which turns out to work just like an S-pen). It's really useful for drawing instructions on screenshots and for fine-tuning video editing on the phone. And the USB-C is what I feel all phones should switch to. But most of all I'm used to my Android phone - I loved LG while they existed and bought only their phones before. Switched to Samsung now and I'm also very happy. No reason for me to go over to iOS for the time being. And I grew up and don't care if the other person is an iOS user. We can transfer files now between phones, after all :))
Them 2 are not power users...they test phones but they are not power users. They use spotify, power user use FLAC. Also when earthquake happens and you stuck without internet for couple of days it's no use of cloud etc. 😁
You missed they point they try to make. Power users are a neash group of people like 10% of smartphone users. More than 70% don't even know what split screen multitasking is, and the 20% who know barely use it.
As someone who has owned iPhones only for the past 10+ years, including the 14 Pro this year, I don't think that was a very critical comparison. I obviously think iPhones fit MY needs better, but the gap between iOS and Android phones isn't that drastic. Just different strokes... The actual objective difference is marginal and definitely not a "7.5 : 2.5" gap.
Well said. The choice between iOS and Android depends on the user preferences. What's absolutely true is that neither iOS nor Android could have become this good if there was no competition.
The numbers don’t really mean anything because they aren’t weighted to each persons interests/needs; everything is just one point. If people want to know what is better, they should watch the video and see what they actually say about each category, and weight each category depending on what they care about.
Some other categories I would've liked to hear about are Durability (how long it lasts, and physical durability of the phone), Repairs (cost of repair/ ease of repair), assesories/3rd party items for phone( earbuds, cases, ease of use of 3rd party items like off brand speakers/earbuds), connections/signal ( what gets better signal, better wifi connects, bluetooth connections, call connections. Even though your provider may differ hardware in connections can drastically change your options as well) ect...
@@DESERTH4WK You can say that about a Midrange Android but average flagship Android takes like 8-10 great shots and 2-1 average shots. Okay iPhone can take 10 great shots but compared to those 08 great shots from Android the iPhone will fall behind. I would rather have 8-10 great shots from Android than the 10 great shots of iPhone which was given in the name of consistency
I don't know why they say the iPhone takes the most consistent photos, when the HDR issue in difficult situations and the yellow tint issue are still not even close to being fixed.
@@LoneWolf6063 don't think it's bias, just enthusiasm. Repetitive phones with average displays, slow charging, uncomfortable ergonomics, a giant notch, no fingerprint scanner, and a restrictive ecosystem aren't what a lot of us want. Most of their decisions were based on personal preference, rarely actually using facts, surveys or specs to compare. I genuinely think it's a very close draw between the two, as I use flagships from both for work and personal life.
I love Mrwhosetheboss, but this was a totally antiquated rating system. Oftentimes, you compared the entirety of android to this single company. With so many phones floating out there it's a completely unfair comparison in the first place. For example, eco friendly. You brought up 2 phone companies which use android that do better, but gave the win to the one company. A more fair comparison would be top current android vs top current iPhone. Your comparing a phone company to essentially an OS used all around the world. Another example would be on gaming performance aand battery life. Gaming phones with higher performance were brought up, and phones with higher battery capacity that lasted longer than iPhones were as well, and yet iPhone won in both categories. The problem is that it's not a level playing field until you compare individual companies. It seemed mostly like mkbhd made most of the calls too, I like him too but his heavy apple bias made Mrwhosetheboss look like a pushover. Completely disagree.

You also have to take into consideration when it comes to "eco conscience" users, repairability. IPhone, especially more recent ones, have terrible scores and have software locked parts, and are generally just a lot more overpriced and expensive, and massively more complicated compared to most if not all androids, with the likes of Samsung recently partnering with ifixit to launch a self repair campaign. Carbon neutral and recycled materials mean nothing if the company pushes new devices rather than repairing broken ones/damaged ones.
True, plus, if you take the industry as a whole, Apple did a LOT more bad things about environment than Android makers. Who popularized non-swappable batteries? Who popularized the removal of the headphone jack alongside with wireless earbuds that uses a lot more materials and very time limited due to their small, non-replaceable batteries? Who is starting to popularize the lack of charging brick in the box? Who is (I bet) going to popularize the absence of ANY port in favor of energy inneficient wireless charging? Apple, every time. To be clear, the manufacturers who follows are assholes as well, I don't think any company is more ethical than an other, but Apple simply is the one and only which enable them all to do that.
Apple have launched its self repair service so you can buy genuine parts and repair yourself, and just because YOU as a regular person can't repair your phone, why does it make the phone less environment friendly? Apple stores can still repair them
this is a secretly sponsored video to boost the sales of the upcoming iphone 14 lineup, dont be fooled or blinded, i know these guys are the best trusted tech reviewers of this age and this is the reason why iphone chose them for this. I would do the same if im paid millions to shoot this video. reason why im saying this is this video is conveniently released when iphone announced their new ios and obviously to get people talking about iphone again and their new upcoming iphone 14
I think the reason that Android lost a fair few categories is that it is not about one single manufacturer. Some features are defining ones for some manufacturers like Motorola's Chop Chop for flashlight and Samsung's Dex and even Xiaomi's ridiculous community support. This is the beauty and weakness of Android. That fact that Android is little imperfect, it encourages you to make your own contribution towards it without caring about getting sued or anything. Android has a more playful aesthetic and is built for nerds like me but iOS has a few constraints. I love the fact that rooting is so easy on Android and you can use apps like GCam Port.
Having many manufacturers should be an advantage in this case. They should be able to take the best of android and beat iPhone but even with all these manufacturers they don’t outright beat apple.
my boyfriends Motorola has this thing where he shakes it to turn on the flashlight. When I saw that I almost bought a new phone. That's the beauty of android, you can get the best phone that works for you as an individual.
@@obviousgreyman sadly having many manufacturers is also Android's biggest weakness. Every company has their direction, some just wants to push out value for money phones, with terrible software support or many corners cut, which makes people think Android is unpolished, some companies want to polish their hardware and software but charge a lot more, people think that they are overpriced and terrible value for money. That's why they don't outright beat Apple. But I think the best thing about Android imo, is that you pick a phone that you like, but is imperfect, then add small touches here and there to make it yours
@@_zaverus The counter argument is that Apple doesn't innovate anymore, they just cherry pick the most popular features that other manufacturers were willing to take a risk on. Yes it's good to perfect existing technology but it's kind of garbage that they sit back and sell stale tech at a premium because they maintain a close source environment.
While I agree with much of the assessment given here, I really do feel they avoided iPhone weaknesses when they were discussing hardware such as still using the lightening port, zero options for a headphone jack and general lack of innovation compared to android options (folding phones are already common with Android). I'm just surprised that they wouldn't even bring these topics up. I don't think either is a fanboy, just seemed to avoid areas that would work against apple.
@@syncroh2310 thank you because I don’t know how is that innovation. It’s going back to the past and making what was in the past better. I don’t and will not buy a folded or flip phone. I disagree with your point as they mentioned in the video it’s based on preferences, and not having something on one and not and the other doesn’t make it a flaw.
Shh, you aren’t supposed to say that out loud. You’ll draw the fanboys in here talking about their “Apple customizes the display manufacturing process”
For the eco category, I feel like iPhone just markets their “eco friendliness” more, because iPhones are really hard to repair compared to androids and therefore iPhone should’ve lost that category.
Apple is the most expensive to repair phone so people usually buy new phone instead of repairing the old one which is worse for the environment. Can't believe apple won that one
iPhone won because unlike android, apple releases 4 phones a year, android has literally hundreds of new models each year. That equates to way more than some repaired iPhones.
So I've been a long time watcher and like many others, this didn't seems like a proper comparision. Key points to note the question was always what does iPhone have that Android doesn't but not much the other way around. The words that praised iPhone were highlighted using graphics but not for Android even for the cases it won Many times when both had valid points the iPhone still got the point Look i value Arun's honesty and i know he's unbiased but this video felt off, I was expecting iphone to win bcus it is in general an overall good phone but this basically showed that Android has nothing going for it No mention of repairability , app backward compatibility or hardware innovations (like folding screens or thermals) Hope Arun sees this i really want to know, was this set up to be appealing to iPhone users on purpose?
iphone is pro. and android is cute if you want ads all over and just a shoddy experience. even check android tv compared to apple tv. apple wins by a million points on that one. new android tv vs a 6 year old apple tv too.
I would honestly say this video was wholly biased, and you can see it several times when Arun reacts with a bewildered face to the things Marques says. Marques was really reaching on some things, like the flat shape of an iphone, or the software, knowing Android is vastly more flexible with root capability. Praising things like facetime as if Android doesn't have more than one way to video chat. They gave draws to things android won easily hands down. I would say they're closer to tied as competitors. Not knocking either one, but the bias was egregiously bad on Marques's part here. The vast landslide in points that he painted iPhone as having simply does not exist at all. How is iPhone eco friendly when they lobby to block all legislation for Right to Repair? Undeniably laughable. They really didn't think this video through. For a tech reviewer this exposed marques as completely oblivious and destroys his credibility all together.
Now i get what all the talk at Twitter is all about. I didn't even watch the video fully. I just can't. This isn't a honest video from either of them. Feels like watching a video called "10Reasons to buy an iPhone" directed by Apple
imessage and facetime basically don't exist outside the US, so calling them "massive pillars" is a bit much.. Same for Airdrop - plenty of alternatives.
@@individual5021 it's not the only thing used, in the US everyone has an iphone, so imessages and facetime is commonly used and a necessity but outside we use alternative apps because they're available on every phone

I totally agree. Android should have won that one.
The lightning cable alone can get the androids a win
Did you check Arun's previous video. He visits the iPhone recycling factory. They want every iPhone to be recycled. I don't see that from Samsung and certainly not from Xiaomi. And nowadays most phones are full of glue. Apple sucks in repairability because of the vendor locked parts etc.

Great colab and I really liked the video! However there is one thing I gotta say. During the eco conscious category one thing you skipped over was repairability. That is arguably the most important part of an eco phone and android is a clear winner there with apple doing things like software locking parts etc.
My big thing with the eco conscious was that they compared companies as a whole. Like Samsung, Sony, etc do a lot more than just phones that will affect them getting to carbon neutral whereas Apple's biggest thing is the iPhone. Not sure exactly how to convey this, more so just that carbon neutral company wide isn't an apples to apples comparison when comparing android to ios

@@apetogetherstrong4243 I disagree. I don't think one is better than the other. Depends on your use case. If you use your phone as just a phone, with some web browsing occasionaly, a $100 android phone is the best.

@@dirksplithof3174 the thing is if you have 6 goldchains in your neck & you stand in the middle of the street & scream what phone should I get, you will not get the reply of "get a 1500$ android" It will be "get a 700$ iphone". Value for money is an excuse, the question was never was "which is the best phone for you" . It was "which is the best phone overall" .
The best phone for me is the 250$ xaomi android I'm using right now that is a year old. But if someone's gonna ask me what is the best phone in the world since the first phone was ever released I'd not say android or blackberry.
Android users & I phone users have formed cults in the tech community where the i phone users feel the urge to brag about their superior tech coz they can afford it & the android users have to come up with different categories, customizations to tear I phone down. The i phone as a piece of tech doesn't have any feelings. It won't feel validated if I say it's the best or the worst in the world.
But it's the objective/undeniable truth that it is superior since it's first release by steve jobs & as a 250$ android user I don't hesitate to say so. The reason that it's treated more as a status symbol than a world class tech is the reason it has become a tough pill to swallow for android users. So what if I can't afford it, it's still the best.

i agree
My take to this is-
In US the best phone is iOS just because everyone uses it. So that's why MKBHD's opinion was more based on that.
However outside US markets, Android has the main market. So it's not a minority in many of the categories.
interesting take!
It coz not many people can afford iphones but that's doesn't mean they are holding s22 ultras and oneplues or even Samsung A series no they are mostly getting xaiomi phones which are best in price to performance compare to every other android brands but anyone who could afford to buy at iphones prices I bet you 95% of the time they pick Iphones over xaiomi or Samsung 1000$phone that gonna become obsolete in 2 year both support and performance lag
its because androids are cheaper

Millions of people in Europe are using iPhone. It's very popular but you have other markets where Huawei is extremely well received. Samsung is also huge because both phones have great low end models.

Thats true.

@@dexter23foxy how can u know tht
And I did vice Versa
I've had Androids most of my adult life, so a few months ago I decided to take the IPhone 13 Pro Max for a spin, and I have two good things to say about it - the battery life was phenomenal, and I loved the solid build, but that was all I liked. I lasted a week, but returned it in favor of my S22 Ultra. I just need to be able to customize my phone and I rely on its ease of use features like single gesture closing of multiple open apps. Apple does what they do very well, and their devices are well built, but if you want greater control of your device, IPhone isn't a good choice.
You said it.
My man
This is what makes android truly better
Funny how they made customisation a draw
Facts. Apple treats you like a customer. Android treats you like an administrator.
Mkbhd is an apple noob
Good lord, I thought Marques was a sucker for Apple but now it's on another level.
Don’t forget Google doesn’t love you either. The only reason I’m reluctantly with iPhone is coz they have a mini.

I think Android should have got more than 2.5 points, but most of these categories are very close and subjective and depend on how you see it.
iOS is more reliable, Android is more customizable. But both are constantly improving and copying each other. At the end of the day, it's all about preference.
Nah, it was basically clear idiocy there, no offense.
iPhone isn;t the best at photos, but I'll choose iPhone.
iPhone literally uses the least recyclable materials and packaging, and is the most anti-repais, but because they market their Eco-Friendliness, it wins.
iPhone sucks at features and is basically a few generations behind, lets call it a draw.
iPhones have no options, and cost quite high, Android clearly has more options that can get better value, let's call it a draw... oh wait cut cut.
Only thing I hate about android it's to fragmented hence the camera app problem maybe If they worked more towards one universal system for all android phones would help?
@@nikhilpaleti3872 They also created a comparison environment where it's easy to default to iPhone by drawing in a garbage Android phone as comparison. Such a clickbait video.
@@nikhilpaleti3872 That's the truth I was searching about
Exactly...you'd simply know they were in favour of the iPhone. What a biased argument...
I think calling it "Android" vs "iPhone" is inherently problematic as Android should be against "iOS" since Android is NOT a phone, but Android is an operating system applied to thousands of phones every year and an iPhone is the phone exclusively able to use iOS. The closest comparison would be iPhone to Pixel since Pixel is produced by google directly. The big thing that Android wins in is the variables of choice that iOS doesn't have. If I can only afford a low end android, I can get one and update later to a flagship one.
In my opinion, not Pixel but Samsung. Google seems to be slowly giving up on their Pixel, not releasing in some countries and a lot of their Google ads now promote their Samsung partnership and show off Google services on the Samsung device ecosystem.
@@seicgames4587 Samsung is integrating Google Messages on their phone better than Pixel phones are. It’s crazy. Right now the only thing Pixels really have going for them is natively running GCam which is still the best software based solution in my opinion.
This is spotted on. iOS vs Android. Yeah! Not iPhone vs Android. Certainly gonna be chaotic.
@@seicgames4587 I would only say Pixel because Pixel is produced by the same company producing the operating system. So it’s not a matter of the best phone running android, it would be iOS on iPhone vs android on Pixel. That being said if we are just talking phones, then that should be more about features then operating systems. It’s just a hard Feild to play in since android as a system is pretty much made for phone companies to adopt and tinker with while iOS is behind the gilded cage of iPhone.
Nope, they’re comparing iPhone running on iOS VS hundreds of Android “phones”, not just comparing the operating systems
How much did Apple pay the both of you? Because Iphone 15 is the WORST.
Arun: Hi what's up
MKBHD: iphone
😂I know right
Love both of your guys but really felt this video was biased a bit too much on Apple's side of things -
- a lot of Apple features that they said people can't live without are limited too US - outside of that, even iPhone users have/use a lot of other options
- usb-c charging, plethora of phone options, UI features, right to repair and repair costs, GOOGLE PHOTOS - so many options and factors that you could have made this video on!
Comparing the average of Android against the strengths of iPhone 13 Pro Max would ultimately result in such a lopsided score :/
the most important thing why people love iPhones is the ecosystem and it’s not limited to US and I personally just can’t imagine living without it..
it’s also the one and only reason why I prefer iPhone over other phones
@@albanos.13 it is indeed limited....and in the end its a personal preference
@@anonymousduh1424 what is limited to US cuz I don’t get it.. I live in Europe and I have every feature possible

Very true...why not bring the best of both worlds and not Apples best against any android that failed a category

If you use Android regularly then split screen is definitely a huge help. It made handling tasks easier.
yess lifesaver.
I only use it if watching TH-cam and want my wyze app open to look at my camera live stream. Very helpful for only so far for me.
Your bias
Honestly, I only used it in fringe cases was more of a gimmick then a feature and I would consider myself fairly tech savvy
I was shocked when I heard that they don't use it
This one felt weirdly biased for you guys. There were certain times when iPhone won despite being the same or worse. For example, MKBHD said that the ROG phone had a better battery at 4:00 and he noted that a lot of android phones have incredible charging compared to the iPhone's "decent" charging. Despite this, it wins the point. For another example, Mrwhosetheboss says that for him, Android wins for the camera section, yet iPhone got the point instead of it being a tie. One more weird example is how in the eco-consciousness section, it's noted that the fair phone blows the iPhone out of the water yet iPhone still gets the point. Mrwhostheboss says that this is because he wants to compare flagship to flagship and that can be a fair point. But if you use that logic, the display section shouldn't be a draw because both parties agreed that iPhone screens are behind Samsung.
Edit : reading the below comment taught me that some of you don't know where the bias is or what the problem i'm pointing out is.
The problem is not that Android lost or that it was a close fight. iPhones are absolutely amazing and they deserve credit for that.
Some of you have argued that it won so much because it was compared to all android phones and not just the best ones. If that was the case, that would be fair but The problem is that they don't stick to that perspective. There are MULTIPLE times where they shift to putting the iPhone against only a few Androids (like the eco consciousness section) in order to give it the win (and multiple times where it wins because its agreed to be generally better than most Androids despite being worse than the best in class androids).
Shifting the comparison around to make one side more favorable is clear bias regardless of what side it's done for.
because there are too many android phones
if we use your logic. then android wins in so many records. lol. basically, iPhone would be the most stable and yet... not the best when compared to the plethora of pillar or flagship strengths of each android phone.
I own both (android and apple), when it comes to freedom android is the winner. One don't have to be limited to apple's "we know what's best for you". Still,.. this video felt very biased to me as well. Apple is the winner even though Android has been doing it for years, really, come on now not by a landslide.
💯 I felt the same way.. Team Android or as MKBHD says (In The World Of Android) lol sounds dope..
the first example was about battery life not charging and the iphone has better battery life?
I haven't finished watching the video at all but this is almost a Marques interview but the issue with that is he's an Apple fan. So he'd just prefer it more.
He tries to be as unbiased as he can but you can't disagree he is still biased.
He doesn't even try lol
yeah i felt like they mentioned how so many android phones do X better but then just gave the point to iphone after anyway... it was often so close that it should've just been a tie lol
He even wears an Apple Watch in this video... That's how biased he is.
100%
@@heybagley bro so why don’t u say he is biased cuz he has an Samsung phone, you gotta understand that the Apple watch is way better than the Samsung one
So Apple sponsored this video, eh?
The fun part is, apple was given a 3/10 for repairablity and the forces it’s users to pay 60% of the cost of the product to repair basic parts that could have been easily fixed for fraction of the cost. The only reason it won the that category was because of its insane ability to market itself out of all its problems
i dont see anything fun here
Bruh every company charges u more if you go and fix the phone on their stores, a lot of ppl complain about this, then just go to a 3rd party service its that simple, where i live we dont have apple stores and go to 3rd parties for repairs, i never have problems + half the price duh.
Apple marketing is literally insane
IPhone is crap. The only people who find iPhone better are the ones who don't know how to get the most of their hardware rigs. IPhone just restricts everything and for doing so, it's better for simple people. If you like not fully utake advantage of your money, buy an iPhone. If you want to take full advantage of the hardware, utility, customs, etc. Android phones are hands down the beast.
Where was Apple given 3/10?
Shocker the man with the apple watch would vote for iPhone more 🤣
If you look at most phone comparisons from MRwhosetheboss, Samsung phones either draw with apple or beat them marginally, but now he's taking opinions form a person who clearly prefers iPhone, its a complete wash over with iPhone winning....
It just shows, make up your own opinion about the phone you want, everyone's views are subjective. 👍
Saying Samsung screen is no better than Apple one because of the curve edge, already a bias.
@@toray424 that part made me almost stop watching but I do like both tech reviewers so I already knew where it was heading at the end

The only thing about android that is better is the software
Felt pretty biased towards Marquez's niche preferences. I've realised over the years of watching tech channels that Marquez has certain preferences and specific things he thinks are non-negotiable (his photo preference for iPhone processing when it's very subjective, the need to use the camera right in the IG app when you can easily take one natively and post it in the app after, the software hiccups in android that honestly are nowhere near as big a deal as he makes them, etc etc) that really aren't as important to I'd say majority of the tech community. Love his content but I don't fully agree with how objective these subjective ideas are made to seem.
I think you're forgetting he used to prefer the pixel up to the pixel 4.
He is becoming more and more biased towards Apple every tech video he makes. Have u watched his waveform podcast. That show should be called the apple podcast at this point. 80% of it is dedicated to apple products. Then 10% is dedicated to EV vehicles and tesla. And only the remaining 10% is spent talking about all other non apple products. I get it. Maybe apple sponsor him. But its Super biased and getting boring
imagine being conditioned to take camera in native app and then post to ig instead of expecting them to just work properly. my standard is high and i want the software to works for ME, not i work around with the software. and still, you're admitting that it is inferior experience compare to iphone
@@novadon4729 maybe apple is getting better and more refined by the day?
@@novadon4729 i don’t know i kind of understand him. I was all about android before going to my first iphone and i never switched back. But I’m no tech reviewer by all means, so your point still stands as well.
Nah mkbhd is just like ijustine. Bias
Emulators are a huge thing for me, as well as the S pen. I love being able to play Wii, DS, N64, whatever all just on my phone. I also like custom APKs if i ever wanna grab something that isnt on the app store. Apple is more secure, but Android is way more open.
I don't think Apple is more secure either to be honest. Just the perception they want you to have. So many lockscreen bypasses and stuff over the years as well as other huge security concerns on iOS
I used to be an Android user, and I think the S-pen is pretty useless, and more of a gimmick (I’m not an artist, so I never used it. But I’m not speaking for everyone) I also never trust APKs, since I got a virus from the last one I downloaded. So I’m personally fine with the fact that Apple is more closed and strict. But I will admit that I miss being able to play emulators and being able to download launchers to completely change the look of my phone. So overall, it’s more of personal preference on which phone is better.
@@gdspace5592 That's purely anecdotal. On the other hand I've never gotten a virus and even if I did antivirus can fix that issue. Why not have the option? Apple doesn't give you a choice whilst android does. You don't have to do it if you don't want to on Android but you have the option. Apple dictates to you how they want you to use "your" phone.

You can get emulators on iPhone. Delta works better than any Android gaming emulator I've ever used.

I have nothing against iPhones, but this is the least objective video I've seen on this channel. I know it's not your fault Arun, you tried to prove your points. And you were right most of the time.
(Also, how the hell can a tech professional say there's not too much of a difference between the screens of S22 Ultra and 13 Pro? It's literally 1750 vs 1000 nits....? I work in a phone shop and have those two models in hands almost on the daily basis, and you can notice rightaway. The Samsung panels have more vibrant colors and they are crazy bright. My personal phone is the S22+ which is "less" bright than the Ultra and everything looks just like it should, even in the extremes, thanks to the Sunlight mode.)

@Dutchman Callypso.I definitely agree with your assessment, and the clear bias by Marques in this not-so-interesting video.Last year onwards,he seems to be an Apple fanboy, with Samsung being the second option for him,as if there are no other smartphone manufacturers.He can give excessive praise for example on the photo quality of the iPhone SE (2022 version), when that phone takes photos that are basically the same as the 2020 iPhone SE.Also,he was forgiving of the iPhone 12 phones not having higher refresh rate, but would crucify an expensive Android phone for not having it.Lately,he leans too heavily on the Samsung and iPhones.It's even evident in this video.That's why I prefer watching several tech reviewers on TH-cam, and honestly,Flossy Carter is one of the most honest tech reviewers out there, with no brand loyalty, but telling it like it is.

You can tell Arun is a big fan of MKBHD but I think that's what made this video kinda biased because you could see how Arun had different opinions on a few things but that would result in a tie, so every time that he might've disagreed it would be a tie.

Arun is super biased and can turn discussions in iphone's favour.
That's why even his positive remarks about Samsung 22Ultra were more of sarcasm.
His argument never makes sense.
Unlike MKBHD... he is neutral and explains the background and experience well before taking a call.
This is apple sponsored spin
This one felt really weird to watch. It almost felt Apple sponsored. Because even in the cases where Android was the clear winner, MKBHD would stretch really far for iphone. I'm not necessarily team Android or iPhone. I think iPhones a better business phone and Android is better for leisure. But none of that seemed to factor into anything. The numbers didn't even Factor into anything
MKBHD tends to do this everytime. Overselling every iPhone feature without a solid basis.
Yeah after the first part already (the screen) I knew it was going to be bs. A draw? When Apple's display is what you can find in 300 € Android phones? It has a lower resolution than most Android phones, the response time is slightly worse, and the touch sampling rate (what MKHD or whatever he is called talked about) is 240 Hz... compared to 1000 Hz on some Android phones. What a joke of a video.
@@cassius_eu5970 and let's not mention that Samsung makes Apple's screens.

When they went into gaming it was such a joke. I watched it thinking mrWho might be objective. Nope just a bad joke of a video.
The issue I've always had with android vs apple is you can't compare them. One is a single phone, another is a wide selection of phones. Apple has a new phone released every year, and that's the one people talk about. Android has so many creators, let alone phone models released, it just isn't fair to either side. Comparing companies to Apple, though, that's way more fair.
Agreed, iPhone vs Samsung would be a more fair comparison. Android is too broad and includes a lot of niche players and a lot of cheap junk.
Apple sucks the prevent software downgrades. They don't allow newer backups to be restored to older ios. They also only allowed signed in IPSWS to be installed, if not signed in you are stuck on a slow phone.
Agreed, iPhone vs Pixel would be a more fair comparison.
karma to apple for not letting other companies use their system ?
yeah also another thing is that android is a universal software. Its used on every other phone. IOS is just used for iphones so its gonna be more optimized. Its gonna have more support. this should have been google pixel against iphone. Hoping google makes a top spec flagship this year as google is the only company that can beat iphone in software
iPhone is overrated This is my answer😎 and the truth is quite different
It's interesting to hear that other people don't use the split screen feature on the Galaxy phones. I use it so often that when I tried to buy the iPhone 13 last year I had it for like a month and ended up returning it because I missed that so much. I didn't realize until then how important that was to me lol
Ikr. I was surprised that both of them hardly use this feature.. It's a lifesaver
Well your not an average user then😁
Same here lmao also features like in Good Lock, Bixby Routines, Bluetooth Dual Audio etc really make a difference
How exactly do you use it? It would be nice to have some examples so i can use it as well
I only use it on my ipad.
Come ooon guys, you really went a bit rough on Android there.. I've been using Android for almost the last 9 years until I eventually decided in last year’s September to get the iconic iPhone 13, and am not regretting my decision to be honest ( well, maybe not much) but I still really miss lots of things that Android has such as missing what freedom really feels like. Dude, the ability of using any 3rd party device like watches, TV's etc.. so perfectly & full-features as well as the ability of charging anything using only one cable (usb-c) and the fact that apple lacks these stuff cannot be just ignored, like seriously you cannot act like naaaah it’s not a big deal. Also the split screen feature man.. I really miss this it was a huge thing for my daily use, the ability of multitasking was a game changer for me and mark my words, when apple does it people will go crazy about it!
And yeah one last thing, the fact that I cannot go past 5 days in the call log to search for calls in MY phone that uses MY account which holds My info still makes me sick till this day.. I know that apple did it on purpose due to privacy stuff and props to them for giving privacy an important role in their approach, but every time I go to my call log looking for a number then I remember that I can’t do this on ios I go wondering what in the flarking hell they smoke in apple 😅.
Still a great phone though, I am really pleased with my Iphone 13, it’s a great phone after all, but as I said you went a bit rough on Android guys though I really enjoyed this collab a lot! Keep up the good 👍
Well said
watches and TVs.. ok maybe its not the case to buy Apple TV even though im pretty sure the iPhone connects to any smart TV, but watches?? if you have an iPhone you dont even have to think about any other smartwatches than Apple Watch. The moment you have 2 pieces in Apple's ecosystem you will see what is Apple really about: the perfect compatibility.
I watched my cousin who came to visit me on vacation when henocktrosh on lg recovered his lPhone, I was so surprised when he did
Very well said. The rating is so ridiculous
Call history gets deleted after 5 days? Are you serious? I was thinking about switching to an iphone but this is a deal breaker for me.
"android has a slight advantage" - ok let's call this a tie then
"seems like they are pretty even in this category" - ok apple gets the point!
"several android models do it better, but some don't". = point for apple!

I usually agree with you, but this time, NO. They literally said that iphone displays are as good as androids. You shouldn't just compare the high-end phones, apple's 900 dollar phone will ship with 60 hz in 2022, where androids do it for 300 dollars. If you gave a draw in display, you should've gave them a draw in battery as well because of actual "fast" charging.

I enjoyed the video but overall, felt this was wrong, let me explain. You could compare ios to android (which versions?) Or you could compare apple to Samsung, Sony etc. (Brand) but this lop sided comparison was only ever going to land in one direction due to taking the strengths from one and the weaknesses from many.
Not disputing some of the arguments, but I also think, spending more time with a phone results in learning the nuances and best settings, I agree iPhone makes it easy through its consistency, but that results in less time and patience with other brands to learn how they work best.
Ultimately, its all opinion, and was an interesting watch/concept.

Are things that Apple locks you in really worth calling "features"? I think Android should win this category, simply because it is much more flexible than Android and allows you to do a lot more things. For example:
* changing many parts of the OS, like the launcher, keyboard, browser, lock screen
* installing apps from outside the Play Store
* full access to the file system
* use it to do things you would traditionally do on a computer. You can do crazy things like coding, running all kinds of VMs and emulators. You can do all sorts of crazy automation with things like Tasker, like automatically opening the garage door when a message that contains a certain thing arrives.
Android is more like "here's a set of tools that you can use to do whatever you want". iOS is more like "these are the things you're allowed to do and how you can do them".
I totally agree
Shrinking minority
Great point, I'm an app developer for both ios & Android. I always prefer Android SDK features, which gives you more control as a developer.
I guess u missed their point
Android does have way more features but
It's (a lot of features ,small minority of enthusiaists) Vs (some special features, a large number of common users)
When u compare like that the slim to none features of iPhone have more weight
More like an ferrari and a caravan
isn t it unfair to take the flagships into consideration only under eco consciousness ? because marques compared the pixel with the iphone during photography...the problem he said with pixel doesn t happen on samsung...and also talking about battery isn t it better when you have 8+ hour battery life and yet charges faster than apple?

Android phones are simply better IMO that iPhones.

Its his opinion man, Tbh im an apple user and i agree that andriod is outstanding in some features and they were more “innovative” than apple
But i just prefer apple products since i grew up using them, I can work with androids but i feel they are sometimes weird for me.
Hopefully you will understand

for customization, barely with ios 16, and for performance iPhone wins, so what are they better in?
iPhone users don't like being told their phones are not as good, and I love the replies that show they are clearly upset.

I love how I got a apple advertisement before the video 😂
I have owned a lot of phones; I used to love HTC, then I found Apple but then I dived back into Android on occasion. I currently have S22 Ultra and the iPhone 13 Pro. I love a lot of things about the Samsung... but I would give the edge to the iPhone as more intuitive and more user friendly for the average phone/camera/streaming person. That said, I think the marking should have been a lot closer than how it was done here, personally. The S22 Ultra is a beast of a phone.

I feel like even if Arun disagreed with MKBHD they would still give the category in MKBHD's favour Arun himself said he preferred Androids photography over the iPhones same as batter because of fast charging in my opinion such categories should have been a draw or should have been more debated upon
One more such category I found was the one where they talked about Android's tons of features vs apple's exclusive few, like the ecosystem, airdrop etc and still gave the point to Apple.
Whereas one thing they ignored is that it only works when both the devices you have are made by Apple. If you have a windows PC, things are going to suck bad with an iPhone, whereas Androids can be simply used exactly like flash drives with a USB cable which is ARGUABLY better than airdrop, because that way you can actually manage the data better on phone as well as on PC. Not to mention you do get features like Nearby Share which works fine.

Definitely think that a lot of the categories where android would be a clear winner werent mentioned, and when there were ties, android shoudlve been a winner, whereas when apple lacked, it was made a tie. kinda expected better.
Exactly what happened 100&
Android is a winner, in terms of photography and other things, they are just too biased towards iPhone.
*I'm gonna be honest. It almost felt like I was watching an Apple Sponsorship.*
*They were really trying to stretch so far for the IPhone when Samsung was the clear winner in most points.*
*Imagine a draw for the best display? Can't believe it.*

Which ones?
Did you watch the whole video or just skip it.
Dude its a matter of what you’r wannt from your phone ,like they’ve said i their video.

In the end take what you wannt but people uses iphone becouse its same good years after buying it,and android just cant keep with it,its a fact.
IPhone display is made by Samsung so it's not a stretch
And what's even crazier is the fact Samsung makes the displays for the iPhone, Apple should be kissing Samsung behind 😂
True true
and they are 2 guys who have hundreds of flagships.. we shouln't trust them right? i had both, s22u and iphone .. apple wins period. you want freedom with your phone and file manager? android.. everything else is iphone
How did the iPhone win the charging category when it has slower charging compared to the rest of the competition? not to mention that it has the inferior charging port, forcing people in the apple ecosystem to carry two charging cables and just generally being outdated considering that every other phone uses usb-c. also, iphones did not deserve to win the sustainability category when you consider that they have the lowest repairability scores. you need 4 different screwdrivers to work on the iphone, does that not ring alarm bells?
i love when tech youtubers get together and talk about technology, but in this video there was a strong level of bias in favour of the iphone.

Well, I thought MKBHD reviewed phones for everyone. But what he said was his personal bias because he is a hardcore Apple supporter. Plus, no one mentioned Pixels. Yes Apple can stand out a lot sometimes. But there is a clear bias in MKBHD's POV. No one went into the options for reparability, costs and all. I don't know how to put it. But even though Apple is doing the best they can, most of the innovations are happening in the Android gadget space. For everyone here, let me get this out there. Getting/ Switching to an android is like getting a chilled out room mate. Getting/ Switching to an Apple is like getting a high maintenance partner.
100%
Like android has reinvented modern foldable phones and iphones has just been adding camera quality to there phones
kak scenty ☻
Exactly if you took away camera specs and went down for straight important stuff androids win in every cstagory
I would agree. There was definitely bias in several aspects of what they said. There are also tons of videos out there showing how even the new iPhone motion and action capturing isn't even close to the likes of Samsung and Pixel. Samsung has had some of the best low light cameras for years now and they mentioned Pixel instead. That was kind of all I needed to hear. I didn't even make it through half the video and had to stop. Don't know who either of these guys are but it was clear on their bias in multiple things.
1. Tried an iPhone 15 PM recently and it was not smoother than the S23u. Not even close. I even had to check the high refresh rate was turned on thats how bad it was.
2. Never had a photo not save on android... Is this a thing for anyone but MKBHD?
3. Havent had a core software glitch on android for a couple of years.
4. Software features: historical clipboard, customisation, better keyboard, t9 dialing, a home screen I can actually organise.
This video was a waste of time.
Marques doesnt know this but this was his secret certification test and now he is a certified Apple fanboy.
Why are you crying?
i mean in his defense he works with these phones every day and is an aggressive user of both, so id say he knows what hes talking about… just because he sided with iphone more doesnt make him an apple fanboy lol. and idk why people think thats a bad thing, clearly apple is doing something right. honestly you guys call apple users sheep but this is a pretty good example of sheep mentality; like a product=automatic fanboy

I use split screen feature a lot as well on my S21 Ultra.
And I found out that I actually really enjoy using the pen from my Remarkable tablet (which turns out to work just like an S-pen).
It's really useful for drawing instructions on screenshots and for fine-tuning video editing on the phone.
And the USB-C is what I feel all phones should switch to.
But most of all I'm used to my Android phone - I loved LG while they existed and bought only their phones before. Switched to Samsung now and I'm also very happy.
No reason for me to go over to iOS for the time being.
And I grew up and don't care if the other person is an iOS user. We can transfer files now between phones, after all :))
Same. Its just so so so freaking useful!
Same for me, started with LG G2 now on Samsung A series.
I too love LG sending it from a LG G8X
Them 2 are not power users...they test phones but they are not power users. They use spotify, power user use FLAC. Also when earthquake happens and you stuck without internet for couple of days it's no use of cloud etc. 😁
You missed they point they try to make. Power users are a neash group of people like 10% of smartphone users. More than 70% don't even know what split screen multitasking is, and the 20% who know barely use it.
As someone who has owned iPhones only for the past 10+ years, including the 14 Pro this year, I don't think that was a very critical comparison. I obviously think iPhones fit MY needs better, but the gap between iOS and Android phones isn't that drastic. Just different strokes... The actual objective difference is marginal and definitely not a "7.5 : 2.5" gap.
Well said. The choice between iOS and Android depends on the user preferences. What's absolutely true is that neither iOS nor Android could have become this good if there was no competition.
Absolutely.. right
The numbers don’t really mean anything because they aren’t weighted to each persons interests/needs; everything is just one point. If people want to know what is better, they should watch the video and see what they actually say about each category, and weight each category depending on what they care about.

@@LoneWolf6063 don't think it's bias, just enthusiasm. Repetitive phones with average displays, slow charging, uncomfortable ergonomics, a giant notch, no fingerprint scanner, and a restrictive ecosystem aren't what a lot of us want.

I genuinely think it's a very close draw between the two, as I use flagships from both for work and personal life.
I love Mrwhosetheboss, but this was a totally antiquated rating system. Oftentimes, you compared the entirety of android to this single company. With so many phones floating out there it's a completely unfair comparison in the first place. For example, eco friendly. You brought up 2 phone companies which use android that do better, but gave the win to the one company. A more fair comparison would be top current android vs top current iPhone. Your comparing a phone company to essentially an OS used all around the world. Another example would be on gaming performance aand battery life. Gaming phones with higher performance were brought up, and phones with higher battery capacity that lasted longer than iPhones were as well, and yet iPhone won in both categories. The problem is that it's not a level playing field until you compare individual companies. It seemed mostly like mkbhd made most of the calls too, I like him too but his heavy apple bias made Mrwhosetheboss look like a pushover.

You also have to take into consideration when it comes to "eco conscience" users, repairability. IPhone, especially more recent ones, have terrible scores and have software locked parts, and are generally just a lot more overpriced and expensive, and massively more complicated compared to most if not all androids, with the likes of Samsung recently partnering with ifixit to launch a self repair campaign. Carbon neutral and recycled materials mean nothing if the company pushes new devices rather than repairing broken ones/damaged ones.
True, plus, if you take the industry as a whole, Apple did a LOT more bad things about environment than Android makers.
Who popularized non-swappable batteries?
Who popularized the removal of the headphone jack alongside with wireless earbuds that uses a lot more materials and very time limited due to their small, non-replaceable batteries?
Who is starting to popularize the lack of charging brick in the box?
Who is (I bet) going to popularize the absence of ANY port in favor of energy inneficient wireless charging?
Apple, every time.
To be clear, the manufacturers who follows are assholes as well, I don't think any company is more ethical than an other, but Apple simply is the one and only which enable them all to do that.
Apple have launched its self repair service so you can buy genuine parts and repair yourself, and just because YOU as a regular person can't repair your phone, why does it make the phone less environment friendly? Apple stores can still repair them

@Ich liebe J.E and you're the guy that wants his 5 minutes of glory. You got it, let's move on.
I think the reason that Android lost a fair few categories is that it is not about one single manufacturer. Some features are defining ones for some manufacturers like Motorola's Chop Chop for flashlight and Samsung's Dex and even Xiaomi's ridiculous community support. This is the beauty and weakness of Android. That fact that Android is little imperfect, it encourages you to make your own contribution towards it without caring about getting sued or anything. Android has a more playful aesthetic and is built for nerds like me but iOS has a few constraints. I love the fact that rooting is so easy on Android and you can use apps like GCam Port.
Having many manufacturers should be an advantage in this case. They should be able to take the best of android and beat iPhone but even with all these manufacturers they don’t outright beat apple.
my boyfriends Motorola has this thing where he shakes it to turn on the flashlight. When I saw that I almost bought a new phone. That's the beauty of android, you can get the best phone that works for you as an individual.
@@obviousgreyman sadly having many manufacturers is also Android's biggest weakness. Every company has their direction, some just wants to push out value for money phones, with terrible software support or many corners cut, which makes people think Android is unpolished, some companies want to polish their hardware and software but charge a lot more, people think that they are overpriced and terrible value for money. That's why they don't outright beat Apple.
But I think the best thing about Android imo, is that you pick a phone that you like, but is imperfect, then add small touches here and there to make it yours
@@_zaverus The counter argument is that Apple doesn't innovate anymore, they just cherry pick the most popular features that other manufacturers were willing to take a risk on. Yes it's good to perfect existing technology but it's kind of garbage that they sit back and sell stale tech at a premium because they maintain a close source environment.
If they were comparing just to Samsung, Samsung would dominate
While I agree with much of the assessment given here, I really do feel they avoided iPhone weaknesses when they were discussing hardware such as still using the lightening port, zero options for a headphone jack and general lack of innovation compared to android options (folding phones are already common with Android). I'm just surprised that they wouldn't even bring these topics up. I don't think either is a fanboy, just seemed to avoid areas that would work against apple.

For the eco category, I feel like iPhone just markets their “eco friendliness” more, because iPhones are really hard to repair compared to androids and therefore iPhone should’ve lost that category.
Apple is the most expensive to repair phone so people usually buy new phone instead of repairing the old one which is worse for the environment. Can't believe apple won that one

iPhone won because unlike android, apple releases 4 phones a year, android has literally hundreds of new models each year. That equates to way more than some repaired iPhones.
@@soundwavesuperior6761 way Ionger??Samsung's get 5 years of software support and iPhones get six.its literally just one year longer
So I've been a long time watcher and like many others, this didn't seems like a proper comparision. Key points to note
the question was always what does iPhone have that Android doesn't but not much the other way around.
The words that praised iPhone were highlighted using graphics but not for Android even for the cases it won
Many times when both had valid points the iPhone still got the point
Look i value Arun's honesty and i know he's unbiased but this video felt off, I was expecting iphone to win bcus it is in general an overall good phone but this basically showed that Android has nothing going for it
No mention of repairability , app backward compatibility or hardware innovations (like folding screens or thermals)
Hope Arun sees this i really want to know, was this set up to be appealing to iPhone users on purpose?
iphone is pro. and android is cute if you want ads all over and just a shoddy experience. even check android tv compared to apple tv. apple wins by a million points on that one. new android tv vs a 6 year old apple tv too.

iPhone have ecosystem.. the most important thing why people use it and me myself can’t imagine living without it
The first comparison got 0.5, this was garbage video.
I would honestly say this video was wholly biased, and you can see it several times when Arun reacts with a bewildered face to the things Marques says. Marques was really reaching on some things, like the flat shape of an iphone, or the software, knowing Android is vastly more flexible with root capability. Praising things like facetime as if Android doesn't have more than one way to video chat. They gave draws to things android won easily hands down. I would say they're closer to tied as competitors. Not knocking either one, but the bias was egregiously bad on Marques's part here. The vast landslide in points that he painted iPhone as having simply does not exist at all. How is iPhone eco friendly when they lobby to block all legislation for Right to Repair? Undeniably laughable. They really didn't think this video through. For a tech reviewer this exposed marques as completely oblivious and destroys his credibility all together.
