IPHONE VS ANDROID

 

IPHONE VS ANDROID IN 2023.

Now it's time for us to go and talk

about stock Android versus stock iOS and see how they're probably going to end up comparing for the remainder of this year now I will definitely tell you if you own an Android phone or if you own an iPhone or if you own an iOS device like this one you can't really go wrong with either one they have a lot of features they have a lot of capability and I will say there's a lot more similarity nowadays than there have been like you know years and years before now I will tell you starting off with the outside I do have the pixel 7 here and I do have the iPhone 14 here I figure these two would be kind of the closest ones to kind of compare to one another so I do want to start off with the you know UI and everything like that so one thing I've actually liked a lot with Android 13 for the most part is you know the UI has been staying pretty consistent but there is a lot of customizability that we have within stock Android so you can always hold down on the display like this and you can always get inside of your home settings and you can customize a  lot of cool things that we have within our  Android device which is cool we also have you know just standard stuff that we can change like our wallpaper and style now Android 13 didn't really change anything like this I'm looking forward this year even with Android 14 coming out I do think there's going to be one major thing Google is going to change and that is with the lock screen and we'll talk about that in a second but here you can see you have a few customizable things and I will tell you you have more things to change overall on your phone on an Android device than on an iPhone but I do think Google did a good job with this version of Android you know you can change the color scheme here and there you can change to basic colors if you want to if you just want one consistent color and you can enable the Dark theme you can do themed icons as well which is really cool so this definitely I would say from a UI standpoint we all know the features in the Play Store and whatnot but I do think the customizability from  an Android phone has consistently been better and better I would say throughout the life of an Android phone but what I would say is with an iPhone with iOS 16 the update we got last year and maybe going on to this year with iOS 17 although we can't really customize our home screen as much as Androids like we can't change the colors of things we can add widgets and whatnot and maybe theme our icons you know not natively using serious shortcuts there is one major

change that Apple ended up bringing with

I was 16 that I think Android is going

to bring with this year and that is

actually with the lock screen we now

have the ability of customizing our lock

screen on our iPhone which is very cool

now one UI has this Samsung has this

unfortunately with stock Android with

Google we do not have this within

Android 13 so if I hold it down here you

can see there's just nothing to

customize like how there is on Samsung

and even on their settings application

there isn't really anything like this so

that has been something that's kind of

notoriously been a little sad to me if

we go and type in lock screen you can

see there may be like some passcode

option thing like here but it's not

going to be what exactly what you're

thinking you can text a lock screen you

can do some other things double line

clock but there's not like a

customizable panel like we have on here

so we can click customize we can choose

our lock screen like this and we can add

a widget to our lock screen we can do

all sorts of things now I think there

might be a way to like I don't even

think it's a way to add applications

that I think about it on the bottom

either so that in and of itself I think

is a pretty big change in a pretty big

advantage that you're having on

something like stock Android than on iOS

so that has been something like I said

before that I've noticed so from the UI

and the editing capability of your whole

entire phone that might be something

that will you know kind of irk you a

little bit on Android although you can

still customize a lot of stuff and

there's probably an application you can

download to come by the customize your

lock screen you are getting that type of

capability on iOS so that has been

something that we did we couldn't talk

about last year because that wasn't a

feature last year but right now we do

have that which is very nice although

it's not really like the craziest

feature of all time it is so nice that

having a little bit more customizability

on our iPhones finally so I think that

in and of itself is easily one of the

biggest changes within iOS and how I

kind of feel like at least with the last

version of iOS Apple has been doing more

to kind of push the UI and push editing

the home screens and whatnot a little

bit more than the Android I feel like

that is the one spot where stock Android

is kind of taking a lot to be honest

because they haven't really been pushing

too many features at least in my opinion

compared to iOS and especially compared

to one UI I'll make a separate video

explaining when you wind my differences

there but with stock Android like I said

I think Google can do a better job here

I think since Android 12 they haven't

really been you know it's only been one

version since then so I do understand

but I do think Google could do a better

job at bringing in more features here so

that is kind of the first thing I want

to say not a crazy big deal but it is

one of those things that I always

mention now if you are very new to

Android and iOS and you want a direct

thing or one of my favorite features

with an Android so I'm not hating it all

the time it's actually with the ability

of installing third-party applications

so we still have that capability on

Android you can install and sign your

own APK files there's also I would argue

better versions sometimes of

applications that we don't have on our

iPhones so personally I like downloading and using some emulators

so on my you know Samsung that I

typically use formulation there's

certain emulators like the Dolphin

Emulator that you can use there's Citra

which is a really good one there's a ton

of them available and you can also

install your own APK files basically

installing your own ads on your Android

phone on iPhones we still do not have

this capability however there are tons

of lawsuits and tons of things happening that are making me seem from all the rumors and everything are kind of looking like Google or an apple

basically looking like apple may end up

giving us support for these types of

capabilities at some point so I think

that is going to be crazy if we go in

general and if we go and get into you

know device or whatever VPN device

management and this is where we would typically sign applications with iOS 16 Apple ended up bringing a little toggle or bringing a little like new pop-up which basically changed the way it was like developer mode or something like that so I do think that is a way for

Apple to go ahead and give us the

ability of sending our own application

so right now Google is definitely an

Android is definitely going to be better

in that stand endpoint if you want to

install your own applications if you are

more involved in the gaming space and if you want to install more applications

like that Android might be the better

one for you now I will say if we're

comparing like the Google tensor 2

chipset versus the a15 a16 bionic chips

I do think you're going to be getting

overall better performance as a whole on an iPhone than on a pixel but I will

argue that from this you know

performance segment if you have an

Android phone like a Galaxy s22 or the

s23 that's going to be coming out that

will probably give you better performance than an iPhone you know for looking at sheer performance but other than that that's basically two of the three of the main things that I like

looking at now another thing we want to look at stock Android and iPhones is the cameras so one thing I've always been able to tell you guys is that typically Androids I would say iPhones give you better quality photos and videos but Androids typically have more features built into the camera between now though there's been a lot of improvements that Apple's been doing on their cameras so for comparing stock Android like a

Google pixel to an iPhone I don't think

you're going to be noticing creates big

differences like you have video mode you have cinematic mode but even just look at when I scroll through when I click at the bottom look at how glitchy and choppy that looks you know sometimes when I'm doing that it just doesn't look good at all on an iPhone though if I go ahead and take a photo or if I just want to go through the UI again look at how much smoother it is it is like so much of a smoother price process if I don't kind of put them side by side hopefully you both can see it but you can see that if I go and click over it's just like little things like that that just kind of irk me sometimes like I feel like both of them could be doing like I feel like apple like I feel like Google could be doing a better job you have a 90 years display here 60 hertz here but it looks so much smoother on something like an iPhone than on the Android now I do think Androids have really good cameras you know I still think a lot of them do but this stock camera UI I think could be better I feel like if it's more in line with how Google or how Samsung has been doing it I think that would be awesome Samsung's UI although it is a

bit clunky I would love the features of

that camera on this but the way it looks

like on here kind of so that is the one

thing I mean you don't really have too

many features too many you know things built in altogether

on an iPhone you do have a lot of

features built in so you have good

amount of features not like a crazy

amount but I will sell you from them

adding cinematic mode to them adding you know stabilization mode now we're having like we've always had portrait mode of panorama mode I do think they're starting to give us a lot more features into the camera and I'm actually really happy that they're going down that direction so I do think that in and of itself is another cool thing and

ultimately what I can definitely tell

you is those are kind of the main things

that have changed at least from last

·        year up until this year so there's a lot

of differences obviously you can you

know there's lots of things you have

iMessage FaceTime on here but those

things everybody kind of knows for the

last year and looking forward I do think

there's going to be lots of improvements going on and I do think next year when we kind of revisit these two phones or you know IOS and Android I think they're going to be a lot more similar and I wouldn't be surprised if Apple actually

were to go ahead and give us the ability

of installing third-party applications

and that would match it way more in line with something like a Google pixel so I'd love to hear your thoughts on about this let me know in the comment section.
