As a long time Android user, Androids used to be on top of Apple; Customizations, wireless technology, OLED graphics, fingerprints, etc. I first used to own a Samsung Galaxy S3, then later, I bought a Samsung Galaxy S8 four years ago. Apple was very far behind Samsung & the rest in terms of features as well as having a lot of limitations.
Today, Apple has just about caught up to Android on nearly everything. Their only flaws tend to be:
But, Apple does tend to have a lot of advantages over Android, such as the following:
And IMO, I think I'm going to save my money for an iPhone 13 Pro (or Pro Max) as my first iPhone.
How many of you have actually switched from Android to iPhone? What was the experience like for you? Love it, hate it? Just want your opinions about it. I'm also a fan of Android, by the way.
Today, Apple has just about caught up to Android on nearly everything. Their only flaws tend to be:
- Having to jump through hoops for certain 3rd party apps in which require you to jailbreak your product (especially for apps outside of the US).
- Not having a lot of customizations.
- Not having the 120 Hz ProMotion Display (though I'm positive that'll be fixed within iPhone 13 Pro/Pro Max).
- Not bringing back Touch ID or even having a fingerprint scanner.
- Not having a lot of freedom to do what you want.
- Apple Siri is terrible compared to Google Assistant.
- The iOS native keyboard leaves a lot to be desired & could use a lot of work.
- No USB-C port which is the standard nowadays within most stuff now.
But, Apple does tend to have a lot of advantages over Android, such as the following:
- Better security & privacy.
- Most apps runs better on Apple products than on Android due to being fine tuned with iOS optimization.
- Their battery life & performance are excellent.
- Most of their products have great resell value than Android.
- Their camera quality is neck & neck with Android.
- They always stay on top with software updates (you receive them yearly).
- They have excellent customer service.
- Their build quality on their products are good.
- iMessage is an excellent app in general.
And IMO, I think I'm going to save my money for an iPhone 13 Pro (or Pro Max) as my first iPhone.
