@@mr.breadman4181nah were paying for a better screen, camera, performance, battery and the Apple ecosystem. It was literally in the video.
@@SergioLlamasTravel That's not called paying that's called spending your life savings xD
That was a fun video having both of you in there as I watch both your videos. The comparisons and the camaraderie was very enjoyable but the conversation itself was entertaining and informative. It’s funny how I watch so many comparisons about phones I’ve never owned and probably never will and still find them informative and enjoyable. It’s almost like watching a game between two sports teams and I really don’t care who wins but I just enjoy the entertainment, between the two of you and a few others I’ve learned a lot and although I’m certainly not a techhead, I’m not ignorant anymore either lol. You guys keep making the wonderful videos and I will keep watching. You both have a friend in Columbus Ohio :-)!
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.
indeed, it's just taste
U forgot the biggest factors... Money
@@aishik5127 if you have the money then you would buy it so yeah still Apple
Yes, i prefer Android
Customize a bad software = bad software.
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.
so true
android was the clear winner there
@@mrshorts2310 oh really 🫵🏼🤣🤣🤣

Man we need “Tech Smosh” more than ever after this with you two.
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.
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.

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
If you use Android regularly then split screen is definitely a huge help. It made handling tasks easier.
yess lifesaver.
i use it like daily no joke.
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.

Honestly, I only used it in fringe cases was more of a gimmick then a feature and I would consider myself fairly tech savvy

*looks at android motorola thats been on 15% battery for three days*
it ain't that big of a deal. I ain't stranded
Ow shit
yeh my motorella edge 40 lasted for 2 days while compared to apple 😂😂
I enjoyed this video but I think that the comparison had a couple problems. I am an android fanboy so take this with a grain of salt. I felt that they needed more parameters in picking android comparisons. Because there's such a broad spectrum of android phones comparing by average isn't totally fair, because it gives the user the opportunity to buy based on preferences. And get the best experience in the category they care about. The user doesn't experience the average of android experiences but the specific one delivered by their specific android. I think it would have been more fair to compare iPhone to the best of android in each scenario. For example android should have won the sustainability category because of the fairphone and nokia.
I still enjoyed the video and they did touch a lot of nuanced points but I think the final score should have been different.
The thing is, when you’re given a ton of options, they start to get confusing. Like for example, Apple has the iPhone plus, the normal iPhone, the pro and the pro max. Samsung has the M, M 5G, A0, A, S, S+ and S Ultra. Plus, these phones cost just as much if not more than iPhones (talking about the S series) and if you go for an A or an M you get shitty preformance, I speak from experience
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
This needs to be pinned, I don't know how they could "forget" that from the most anti right to repair company
Funniest part is that many independent repairers report the the iphones are actually easier and less costly to repair
@@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.
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.
I love how I got a apple advertisement before the 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
I don't use multi windows much on my Samsung phone. But it does come in handy when I need it. Like those email confirmation codes, or on amazon and I wanna check a TH-cam review on an item I wanna buy
The problem is they are comparing one phone to hundreds of thousands of phones
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.
It IS an interview, because Arun didn't present his opinions completely mostly. Arun would have awarded more to Android
@@namishbaranwal3522 nah arun like apple too i think. but arun would probably give android more score than just 1.5.
I feel that too while watching the video because the disappointment on Arun 's face was obvious with the biased opinions of Marques
Totally agree with you on that one
i agree
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?
Funny how they were complaining about the big notch and now every youtube tech reviewer is crazy about the dynamic island which takes more space than the earlier notch and blocks more content.
Because the notch serves no purpose except to block. Dynamic island does things. And it’s cool. That’s my personal opinion, I myself have no big problems with notches.
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
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...
my favourite thing with gaming on android is that you can do emulation. emulation lets you run so many more games that are really high quality than iphone mobile apps. i also love shooting RAW on android with other camera apps like footej camera 2, because as a photographer it is just better to shoot RAW.
They added it like a month ago
Just remember this..when you buy an iphone its not yours..
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.
Yep I prefer android precisely for that reason
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.
I switched to iPhone because of work and I literally got depression, I felt like an NPC, now I just carry and iPhone and a Galaxy
@@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
In android even you can share apps in play store like an airdrop without using internet that's cool
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...
They didn't put these in their because their biased for Apple.
HAHAHAH facts
@@Ziadgamer3218 fax
Yeah there is a lot they did not mention.
@@Ziadgamer3218 iPhone would win in durability no question though. That's not a bias.
The fact this video is 20:23 minutes and they made it In 2023😂😂😂
are you slow? this vid says 2 years ago
14:03 still can’t change your icons on ios without a dumb banner every time you open an app
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
Android is trash, how come a cellphone can get viruses and pop alerts 🤮🗑
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.
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.
I knew it they would give all the points to iphone when I saw the smirks and laughter.
I think you are paid to be bias
Giving apple the point for ecology after what they've done with the chargers and going against the right to repair is a big OOF
You realise that all the main Android players ALSO don't give you a charger?
@@johncoops6897 only samsung doesn't do and they still would if not for apple
@@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
@@johncoops6897 all the Android brands provide fast chargers in the box, except Samsung, and Crapple. Where do you even get your stupid facts from?
@@johncoops6897 bro, apple doesn't even let me use third party bricks properly
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
Tim: Promote Iphone pls (even if you use Android)
MKBHD/MWTB: Yes
MWTB was confused as hell about the end conclusions but since it was sponsored its okay😂😂😂😂
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.
Fr man I feel like there were a lot of biases in that review
strokes
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.
I 100% agree
You peep that 2 bro
+1
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
MKBHD was very consistent about iPhones
He's a true shareholder the one who caused the phone to be that expensive he's not going to let it down custom loss shareholder win LoL
He's a apple fanboy
2.5/7.5 seriously?
Arun: Hi what's up
MKBHD: iphone
😂I know right
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..."
He's been an Apple boi for a long time. He get a lot of heat for that on Twitter. So obviously it's very biased.
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
@@m4heshd Yeah he’s admitted several times that his daily driver is an iPhone 😂. Nothing wrong with that . But this video was really one sided
I love this two of my favourite TH-camrs together!😊
1.Vibration strength you can adjust on Ultra phone (iphone user won't know about it).
2. No fingerprint scanner under display on iPhone.
3. Four large icons only you cant add the 5th icon to the lower row on iPhone.
4. You can't rearrange icons, i.e. have one icon in the left and one in the right corner on iphone like wtf.
5. To close all open pages on iPhone you have to swipe with one or teo fingers totally stone age. On android there is an option to close all pages at once.
P.S. I just dont understand how come apple users can be so boring 😅 I always thought all CEOs or big company peoppe use iphone because they like to be different. Well, everyone knows you stand st the store and iphone ringtone makes everyone to check their phone because no one bother to change it. On android phone you can set video wallpaper on lock screen. You can have icons anywhere you like it and have many icons smaller size. Iphone 6.7 inch display with 4 icons per row is a grand parents choice. Tim Cook should buy new eye glasses 😅
And that 240 gram brick cost soooo much money 😊
This just proves Android is more creative really but it is up to the person. Personally, I use the iPhone for many reasons. The display is much more interactive however in android you have more freedom so both of them for me are *equally* good
Androids don’t have good Face ID though, since iPhone uses lidar to 3D scan your face; not to mention a great ecosystem
When you guys say “Android is more creative” it bamboozels me as you’re talking about all android companies. Look at MiUI’s control center for example and tell me if that shit is “creative”
@@ThatIceChampion maybe it would just apply to samsung only ...
@@Angularie2 not even them, have you seen OneUI 6? The control center looks like the MacOS Big Sur control center.

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.
Android is literálod open source
You can get emulators on iPhone. Delta works better than any Android gaming emulator I've ever used.
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 knew right away this was gonna be some BS when he said the iPhone display was anywhere near Samsung's
I also 💭 so..... 😂
It’s his opinion… he can equally call you an android sucker.. so let him have his opinion
@@Patty100ish ong
Just mind blown by the fact that MKBHD shares his candid personal opinion, coming on top of his head and the precise details and facts in them make so much sense that everyone would nod and say " yeah, that's right"!
Not really
that's just you pal
NOBODY IS TALKING ABOUT ANDROID ONLY EMULATOR GAMES
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.
2 apple guys talking about apple? Yes that's what this video is about
It blows mymind that they say they don't use the Samsung multi-tasking features cos I personally find the little notification bubbles that pop up and open a little window without you leaving what you're doing indispensable. I love that I can quickly reply a message while seeing the messages screen without leaving what I'm doing. It's great.
Priceless man!
It beats me too
Really?! I've never used a Samsung before but this multi-tasking feature intrigues me. I'm a huge fan of the way Windows allowed for excellent window management so if I can find something similar in Samsung, I'm a fan of Samsung for life lol.
The split screen feature is why I'm still on android
i use it often, and samsung dex os my main pc, so can't really leave samsung until something similar is available in other brands.
You can do that on iPhone too. Your comment is why the two biggest reviewers (who have used both iOS and android ) have decided iPhone is the best device, and not you.
you should be doing these type of videos with persons that are not fans of a brand like this guy is obviously his the hugest fan apple
It’s so funny that Aruns personal phone is an iPhone but he’s defending Android, and Marques personal phone is an S21 Ultra and he’s defending the iPhone😂
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?
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.
@@HarshitRautela this video was great but was too concentrated on personal preference if it was more practical it should have been a draw or android should have won
@@hanzsintim I agree android is much better especially when it comes to budget because my family is broke and I got an Android phone that costed 120 bucks and it is great may not have have too teir but it's much better than any se and costs half of it

I love this collaboration!!!
Seeing you two guys in the same video is Amazing 😊
I love how I can just connect, transfer and play / open anything on my Android phone with zero restrictions no software bs.
No shitty walled garden thing, no weird charging port, a good file manager and the option to install any apk. Sounds like a clear win for android...
@@thecon_quererarbitraryname6286 ^ this
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 “scamsung”… Clever but incorrect. iPhones are very pricey as well. It’s a personal preference, IPhones aren’t better, neither are androids.
this argument is so old by now & also irrelevant now. Both systems have their equal pros & cons.📱
This is perfect. My two fav you tuber
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
except that we don’t get apple card
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
Very true...why not bring the best of both worlds and not Apples best against any android that failed a category
The fact that both of them aren't aware of Nearby Share on Android is shocking af.
and wifi direct as well. its almost as if they dont actually use androids unless doing a review
It's not the same thing. I use AirDrop to go between iPhone and Mac, a surprisingly common use-case.
@@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.
@@cashbonanza963 I don't think they understand what we mean when we say anything you can do on a computer you can do on Android.
I regret not taking use of the cool Huawei Cam gimmicks more times before it broke
Apple glazers
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 )
Actually it does and repairability is not the one that can decide Eco consciousness company plans to which apple wins in that
They literally showed footage of the Fairphone then said lol Apple is going carbon neutral give them the win.
New Android flagships like S22 are the same.
You forgot newer androids being difficult to repair too
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
Arun trying to be unbiased:
Marques: "Android is actually really good, but I give that to iPhone because I like them"
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.

@@abderrahmanelbakkali190 he uses an android though
@@flauntinggg2w812 can you prove it?
13:52 what I’ve noticed tho is that the reverse wireless power sharing on Samsungs flagships, is a really nice feature. Like before I had the iPhone 15 pro max with the amazing battery. I had an iPhone XS Max. I could charge my iPhone with my galaxy s22 Ultra
The design of the iPhone is horrible. That alone makes Galaxy S24 Ultra a clear choice.
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.
United States >>>> Everywhere else
People outside the US do use FaceTime and Specially airdrop but ur right about iMessage.
@@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'm from Vietnam and I use iMessage + Facetime a lot with my friends. And i believe that it's the same for many countries.
@@huyvu6929 A lot of european countries dont and most south asian counts don't either
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?
5:34 Did he just say Android is objectively better but he still prefers iPhone?
I know this is an older video, but you and Marques should get together once a year with the newest handsets and see if score changes from year to year
I generally prefer android as it offers more stuff that I'm looking for

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

@@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 fact that didn't make this iPhone vs Samsung makes this kinda stupid, the whole video gets dragged in so many ways when it just doesn't have too
This collaboration deserve a Grammy.
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.
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.

I would actually give the Eco Conscious category a draw because Apple use proprietary chargers, and since they don't come in the box, there's more cost to the consumer and more packaging.
But so do android flagships and even mid-range flagships now no?
@@adityadas5820 Yes, but Apple has other things. The anti-repair practices for instance. You can't repair an iPhone without paying £400 for it and you almost have to send it off to Apple.
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
I just switched to iPhone 13 Pro Max. There are things that I really miss like the convenience of answering a message while still continuing watching a video on TH-cam on the other half of the screen, and also the ability the copy files directly to a usb drive.
you cant copy to a USB drive? maybe thats an ipad only feature. if you have a mac you could paste it right where you needed it without using intermediate media though.
Same. Having to stop my TH-cam podcasts to do anything else in the phone really sucks lol. I also miss the plus button not being available when I put my apps in folders. It takes so much longer to press down each app and drag into folders. Also another weird one I found you can’t delete multiple contacts at once on the iPhone. The magic to iPhone is in the ecosystem for sure.
@@junior5893 you can pick as many apps as you want on iPhone as well. In that ”jiggle mode” hold one app and then just pick all the apps you want.

A collab we never knew we needed!
I was an avid iPhone user for years, and was very happy for the most part. I gave Android a chance when Samsung released a new phone a few years back, and never realized what I was missing out on. One topic that was not really discussed here, that is very important to me now, is the how much better Android plays with 3rd party hardware. Watches, Smart TV's, Speakers, etc... There is a world of great technology out there that Apple just doesn't want you to be able to take full advantage of. And, this is always a hot topic as well... But, Android Auto with Google assistant is just unmatched in my opinion. I'm not a fanboy of either platform by any means, and am actually making this comment from an Apple computer. However, these small things are very important to me, especially my smart watch. Great comparison otherwise though. Cheers.
Android is okish but for me only really Samsung would be an option and being in Europe, I won't let them scam me with their sub-par Exyshit processors.
So as long as this is a thing, I will buy Apple (where Europeans are not treated like 2nd class customers). Maybe if there is a day where we get the real processors for the same price (without import and stuff), I may consider giving Samsung another shot.
Marques mouth is filled with apples balls.
@@quAdxify i dont think it samsung fault that europe got teh crappy cup, i think maybe its teh EU regulation
@@yia01 nope it is Samsung. The Exynos is cheaper because it is their own. One of the reasons they use Snapdragon for the US is because they dont have the patents (or rights) for the modem or something, so they cant use Exynos…
@@quAdxify Well as another European Android is already a couple times better because there's alot of different brands out there and their entire business model doesn't revolve around you spending your entire life savings.
Another plus for android is you can connect your android phone to any pc and access your files instantly.
Also in this video it sucks that points for android doesn't count because "not alot of people are using the feature"
Apple's ability to control their environment really gives them control over first party software. But the fact that it exists only between Apple devices is not a huge plus in my opinion. It's great that FaceTime and iMessage is good, but when someone tries to contact me, they can't use them because I use android. These features seem to only be good for people who surround themselves with others that also only use apple products which it's hard to call it a definitive win.
Yes. Not a wise argument.
Of course it’s a valid argument
If not a-lot of people are using said feature, it isn’t a good feature. Otherwise everyone would be using it. Which is why everyone uses FaceTime and iMessage
@@CrazyPanda688 usage of a feature cannot determine if a feature is good or not...... if I alone am using a feature and it's working well and making life a little easier, it's a good feature. If others don't know or use that feature, maybe because it's for a smaller demographic, doesn't result in the feature being bad.
