The Untold Truth of Buying an iPhone

Ok, who's here? Have we got the iPhone or the Android owners in the house? 😅 In all seriousness though, this one's for the long-term viewers of my channel, who have diligently watched my 'switching to android' videos, every single time I release one! So, tell me, honestly, which Android phone do YOU think is better than the iPhone?

Wow, an actual licensed track for the opening, this must be a special video... Edit: Wow and for the end too, someone's saving money by not returning his review units...

Apple has won if you completely ignore the 2 largest markets in the World: India and China ... where Apple can't seem to sell much. And if you look into South America (where I moved recently), I don't see many Apple products here in Brazil (probably due to the fact that an iPhone here costs $2000 due to import taxes while average income is barely around $500). Apple seems to dominate mostly in the US and be 50/50 in Europe (where I am from). In my opinion, thinking that Apple dominates is a very narrow (UK + US) point of view but I might be wrong and it would be interesting to compare that point of view with actual sales numbers worldwide (which I admit I didn't do).

used iphones since 2008. switched to google pixel couple months ago. the only thing that's making me mad is, that i didn't switch earlier

Couldn't agree more Pete, I miss the old Apple, especially when it comes to the iPhone. Just watched this on my glorious S24 Ultra ❤❤❤❤ awesome content mate

Bro the song in the intro🔥

My first smartphone was the iPhone 3GS, then a variety of Android phones, until I reached the original iPhone SE. That was my last iPhone because IPhone simply weren't capable of what I wanted to do but that may change. One of the things that has kept me on Android is the ease of emulation but that is changing now that I don't have to jump though hoops for emulators on Apple devices. I think you are overestimating the 'gateway drug' idea. That near 90% iPhone stat comes from the USA, in the rest of the world Android is far in the lead.

This is an AMAZING video. Great editing, great music choice for the background, great everything. I have been a fan of the channel for a while now and I have to say this is your best video yet!

I thought there is something in the background while watching this video. I figure it out that the sound is coming from this video. revolutionary!

A+ for video production Pete! You have put together a great team. 80% of Americans have an iPhone so I’m not surprised such a high percentage of teenagers in the US are iPhone users - because their mums and dads have iPhones… and Apple’s marketing in recent years really has been aimed at youth/young adults on social media. But here in Australia it’s split evenly at 50/50 iPhone and Android users and in Asian countries it’s predominantly Android. Parents will likely buy their kids the budget version of what they’re using. Also, I’m very curious (as I am every year) about the iPhone 16… can they win me back from Samsung?

That ending was COLD….

I was bored with iPhones when I switched to the s22 ultra. When the s22 ultra works, it's phenomenal. The camera is amazing. Screen is beautiful, but I've simply had a bad overall experience with it. I'm currently on my third s22 ultra because they can't stay connected to the network. Even this phone is starting to show signs it's unstable at best. I'll be switching back to iPhone at the end of this year, when the 16 is out.

On a meta quest are you talking about the materials that is made out of all you talk about the software?

love your videos since the odyssey ultraultrawide reviews. do you use final cut for editing?

Verry well written video pete and props to the editing 🤝🏻

Great Video Pete!! You captured the essence of everyone’s phone battle perfectly!! I had the first ever iPhone in 2007 and upgraded every year until I changed to Android when the Samsung S9 came out…. I stuck with Android until the iPhone 14 Pro when I jumped back. And your right Apple might not have the best product in any individual category but their ecosystem is unrivalled!! I have the iPhone 15 Pro, Watch & MacBook Pro and I think as a filmmaker & creator the MacBook Pro is essential!! The system just works and integrates so well together. Awesome video mate 🙌🏻🔥

Well said (articulate) I agree with you on this one. Love the way you put this together from the visuals and editing aspect of it. One of your best work in my opinion.

amazing music choice, it introduces the video so well. Very well done!

Hey Pete, really a Great Video with a Thumbnail that creates Curiosity and the Video that answers it. I bought my First Apple Product, an iPhone 13 before 2 years. I am also planning on getting an Apple Watch X which is the only thing holding me from switching to Samsung!! I'm surely getting into the Apple Ecosystem slowly, haha

I'm actually more impressed you have licensed music in a cell phone video without the songs getting removed
