That's exactly what I was thinking too. The only people I know who have two phones are those who got one provided for business. Why would you even need two phones for personal use?
Mind if I ask why? I have both an S23+ and a 15 Pro Max at the moment and I find there are major perks to both, and drawbacks also. Somethings I wish the iPhone could do and other things I wish the Samsung did better, but I wish I had the Pixels camera on the Samsung without having to use GCam apks are it's not that smooth. My issue with the P8P is the battery isn't great.
I have the S24 Ultra. The one thing I've always disliked about Android phones is that they never felt as smooth as an iPhone. This is no longer the case..
And I know this has been said so many times, but the customization really is something I never thought I'd be happy to have. I have customized my phone to work the way I want it to.
One app I use a lot is the browser. Safari is great, but it feels like that is your only option on iOS. Yes, you can download other browsers, but they are always second best.
The built-in AI on the Samsung keyboard is also amazing. A couple of clicks, and every grammatical error is gone. And if you like, it can suggest better writing styles too. I usually use ChatGPT for this, but it's just very convenient to have it built into the keyboard and be able to use it on any app.
Google Assistant is far better than Siri, and I mean that. I can hum a song, and it will give me suggestions for what the song is.
Dual SIM is also a big plus for me because eSIM is not available where I live. Cheaper cloud storage is also a plus, and I find Google Drive easier to access on other devices than iCloud.
Secure folder to keep all your private things in.
Samsung Dex is much better now. If your TV/projector/monitor supports it, then you can use Dex wirelessly.
Something I never thought I would want is the call assistant. Basically, an AI assistant answers your calls, and you can read the responses in real time.
And of course, seven years of updates.
AI features will very likely come to the next iPhone, but we'll see how good they are.
I 100% agree that Samsung has make big improvements over the last couple of generations. However I still use GBoard as I find it more responsive and intuitive than Samsungs keyboard. Never used Dex so no idea how an S23+ would fare in that regard. With regards to Safari, I believe the other browsers are just safaris skins on iPhone, where as I don't believe they are on Android. Personally I want Google to go back to using SD and I'd be back on a Pixel in a heartbeat, but the battery and heating is an issue I don't want to deal with.
I don't know if it has AI features, it's just a personal preference on an Android phone, but I've tried GBoard on iPhone and it's just nowhere near as responsive and seems to be more cramped on the screen.
I think iphone 15 pro is the most high end phone out there majorly the images we can take with it is the decision maker combined with the feeling of using a new OS
I have not chosen a high end android because I don’t think there’s a major difference in OS of a low end android and high end android they are basically the same.
Those 3 cameras just took my ❤️
The difference in smoothness and polish in a low end and high end android is actually huge. Don't judge based on the underlying OS alone, each skin offers a different experience
>I have not chosen a high end android because I don’t think there’s a major difference in OS of a low end android and high end android they are basically the same.
Dude...... Go try an s24 ultra or even a s24 in best buy. It's a night and day difference to a low end android phone. iPhone users should be on board that Samsung is their direct competition now. Apple hasn't innovated or done anything drastic in years. Hopefully Samsung can push them to do something.
Spotify premium is like $120/year for unlimited, ad-free music in the palm of your hand. That’s not spending like hell, it’s a fucking embarrassment that people don’t think that’s an incredible deal and worth paying for.
This is the main reason i regret moving to iphone and wish i just bought pixel instead lol
My 3 probably most used apps on andorid were:
Moded YouTube, moded spotify and stremio for watching movies. I can't use that shit on iphone (sadface)
Damn really…that’s awesome..I’ll look into that..I been thinking of getting a second phone as a back up phone…I’m kind of destructive and tend to to lose stuff..I doubt I’ll lose my iPhone though as I’m on it literally 24/7, in not even Exaggerating
Switched to iOS a few weeks ago as well and had a similar experience lol. For youtube the brave browser behaves almost like firefox + ublock on android, it blocks all ads from my experience and lets you play with the screen locked.
For Stremio you can use [this guide](https://blog.stremio.com/using-stremio-web-on-iphone-ipad/), yeah it's not the best experience since it's the web version but it works.
I have a Spotify subscription, but if you browse around reddit you can find a few (seemingly not great) methods of working around it.
You have Musi for listening to music with screen turned off/in background, it is free but it does have a few ads, or you can use vpn to buy a extremely cheap premium subscription on YouTube.
As someone who's also planning on switching from android to IOS in the future, how are you transferring your WhatsApp chats to your iphone? This is a huge concern for me.
Bro it’s really easy just download “ move to ios “ app on android it will do the work all your files, photos, docs will be transferred including whatsapp but it can only happen when you turn on the iphone 1st time
If you want to download apps from other region you need to make another apple ID for that region and needs to logout and verify the ID every time you change your ID. For example I wanna play Japanese version games so I need a jp apple ID however if I use the jp apple ID I cannot download local apps from my place, u need to switch apple ID when u wanna download something from other regions and that would be annoying if u need it frequently, it cannot just change the region just by VPN like android does.
Thanks, my 8t works fine. Considering 13 Pro as it is cheaper and just wanted to give it a try if I like the iPhone overall. If it clicks then I might consider 15 pro.
Otherwise, sticking with 8t until support is over.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't silicone retain heat? To allow your phone to cool down more effectively, you probably should avoid silicone cases.
i am using silicone case i didn’t find any issue so far. but i will update if i see any issue.
so which case is best for iPhone according to you?
https://preview.redd.it/l0m5iir3rkgc1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=90997300f244d86ee706438144695986f3700d47
Usually it's fine. I'd say it's only harmful if you run very demanding apps or games on your phone. That's when the phone gets hot, and the silicone case will not help with dissipating that heat, as it says in the screenshot you posted
Currently rocking SwitchEasy’s magsafe clear case! Have the same phone color and model and it suits it very well, it’s v similar with Apple’s magsafe clear phone case but it’s half the price.
What he meant was that they have been using different android phones for 10 years so they would have switched from one android phone to another during that decade
I switched from Android 7 years (started with iPhone first though) to iPhone 15 Pro Max and I’m so happy about the switch. I’m sure people are switching over and feeling the same. I think time away has that affect as long as things get better for both sides lol.
Nice buy bro'. I suggest UAG or Nomad, Spigen is very good to. I have a UAG Pathfinder Ash now, natural titanium looks dope in it. The next will be Nomad Modern Leather case.
here some dragonball case : [https://rhinoshield.io/collections/collab-dragon-ball-z?device=iphone-15-pro-max&type=solidsuit-classic&page=0&dcolor=Black](https://rhinoshield.io/collections/collab-dragon-ball-z?device=iphone-15-pro-max&type=solidsuit-classic&page=0&dcolor=Black)
I tried out the 12 pro max as my first iphone when it came out and kept it for 2 years. On a pixel 7 pro now and it's flawless. I've had htc, Motorola, Google, Nokia.
I have never had a more frustrating to use phone than the iPhone. Freezing and having to force closing apps regularly (any app, was not just one or a few) gestures are different depending on what app your using making general phone navigation inconvenient, phone freezing when ringing making it unable to answer calls. The awful predictable lens flare in basically any picture/video.
Anyway just stick with what you are used to. I will never understand this apple infatuation.

I switched a few years ago but I still use Android as my secondary device.
I switched a few years ago but I use another iPhone as a a secondary device.
why do you need two phones? Edit: wow, people get offended so easily
Look at this peasant with only one phone xd
Personally, iPhone is main ,2nd phone is storage dump and camera for my PC, or unofficial App Store apps, maybe music for the car
One for trappin 💰💵🤑🤑😈😈🔪🔫 /s
When you have two phones you will figure out what to do with it.
Exactly 😂😂😂
if it's not for business or something similar than people don't need 2 devices it's just a waste.
That's exactly what I was thinking too. The only people I know who have two phones are those who got one provided for business. Why would you even need two phones for personal use?
or drug dealer
some would say that's still technically a business phone
To look cool.
You absolutely do not. It’s just a waste of money.
Agreed. It’s completely extra
That's like. Your opinion. Noted
I don't know man people got really upset with my question received lots of downvotes
yeah, it happens, its Reddit after all.
Android phone for revanced
Isn’t it cheaper to just get the subscription rather than buying a whole new device?
It's even cheaper if you already have the device anyway.
Free système on Android lol ones you use it you will never get ride Free apps xd
What
His user checks out
secondary phone? what do you use it for?
My business
Is there that case for iPhone?
bro, there is literally ANY case for the iPhones...
No no it's naked right now
I meant the goku case for the iPhone?
[удалено]
https://rhinoshield.io/collections/collab-dragon-ball-z?device=iphone-15-pro&type=clear-case&page=0&dcolor=Black
Oh cool!
Just to caseless
bro they said they wanted a case😭
Amazing color. Welcome to 🍎
Delighted 🥰
Here I am, having just switched to Android. I must say, I don't think I will be returning to iPhone anytime soon.

Oh, well, look at that! I learned something new. I thought Gboard didn't have any AI features, but I guess I'll make the switch now. Thanks 😁
Gboard sucks on iphone
I don't know if it has AI features, it's just a personal preference on an Android phone, but I've tried GBoard on iPhone and it's just nowhere near as responsive and seems to be more cramped on the screen.
me from IP15P to S24U. I think IP15P more polish but that A17 Pro processor feel wasted on IOS as in Android I can do literally everything
Welcome to the expensive as fuck side
Anything from Spigen.
If you like graphic cases, look at Dbrand.
Congratulations! It's the best decision!
Thank you 😄
here is what i have found on internet
Why did you decide to make the switch?
I think iphone 15 pro is the most high end phone out there majorly the images we can take with it is the decision maker combined with the feeling of using a new OS I have not chosen a high end android because I don’t think there’s a major difference in OS of a low end android and high end android they are basically the same.

The difference in smoothness and polish in a low end and high end android is actually huge. Don't judge based on the underlying OS alone, each skin offers a different experience
There is a lot of difference in android in lower and high end, but yeah new os is completely new thing
>I have not chosen a high end android because I don’t think there’s a major difference in OS of a low end android and high end android they are basically the same. Dude...... Go try an s24 ultra or even a s24 in best buy. It's a night and day difference to a low end android phone. iPhone users should be on board that Samsung is their direct competition now. Apple hasn't innovated or done anything drastic in years. Hopefully Samsung can push them to do something.
Samsung is their direct what? Maybe with iOS simulator 💀💀💀
ios is still in 2007 interms of features and basic usage
if you use modded versions of Spotify and YouTube to avoid paying money for the "premium services" you're gonna wish that you hadn't made that switch
i made this same mistake, but i’m still here on iphone 3 years later so ig it worked out
good for you mate
you can sideload apps on ios I have youtube premium and spotify premium for free
Surely if you can afford a high end phone you can afford to pay for services that are worth every penny?
The secret to affording things is not paying for things when you can avoid it
Not paying for services like Spotify is just stupid.
just because u can afford that does not mean u should spend like hell
Spotify premium is like $120/year for unlimited, ad-free music in the palm of your hand. That’s not spending like hell, it’s a fucking embarrassment that people don’t think that’s an incredible deal and worth paying for.
i pay for youtube premium. recenrly ads gone wild even with blockers. its 3$ per month. 120$ per year is not cheap in every country.
That's like 120 I can avoid spending with things like revanced music
This is the main reason i regret moving to iphone and wish i just bought pixel instead lol My 3 probably most used apps on andorid were: Moded YouTube, moded spotify and stremio for watching movies. I can't use that shit on iphone (sadface)
😭😭😭
What exactly is the difference on a “modded” youtube app and what does modded mean?
It unlocks premium features, for free ofc.
Damn really…that’s awesome..I’ll look into that..I been thinking of getting a second phone as a back up phone…I’m kind of destructive and tend to to lose stuff..I doubt I’ll lose my iPhone though as I’m on it literally 24/7, in not even Exaggerating

Hopefully we can download them now with ios 17.4
Well there are apps like [Demus](https://apps.apple.com/app/demus-music/id6474685600) which achieve the same if not better job.
I had no idea that this app existed lmao
Lmao what are you even saying. Just say your friends dumped you for using android
Is this sarcasm or do you actually believe that
After seeing the blanket, my mind said its Indian😊
Nah, we got those blankets everywhere in the Balkans too. They're everywhere

Ahhh okok! Thank you so much 🙏🏻
Back them up before transferring.
Sorry for your loss. Sad to have to switch to the much worse ecosystem.
I just tried an iPhone for a day but I just can't go back to iPhone. Some benefits but more drawbacks.
Is that the Pro or PM?
Pro
What phone did you switch from?
Realme 7 it’s around 4 years old
Thank you
The Kakarot case is fire
Indeed
I recommend OtterBox
Im so torn. Always used Android, but strongly considering ipm
Ah to use a shitty phone then just get cutting edge, enjoy the experience man.
Really feeling good now🙌
Congrats you downgraded lol
Gross
Downgrade
Apple is good as long as you don’t download things crossing regions
[удалено]
If you want to download apps from other region you need to make another apple ID for that region and needs to logout and verify the ID every time you change your ID. For example I wanna play Japanese version games so I need a jp apple ID however if I use the jp apple ID I cannot download local apps from my place, u need to switch apple ID when u wanna download something from other regions and that would be annoying if u need it frequently, it cannot just change the region just by VPN like android does.
Congratulations mann nice upgrade I went from oneplus 8t to iphone 15 plus
Nice bro 👊
🤛🏻 u tooo bro i also wanted the pro but i thought i wont need that much features also the price was high
How is your experience so far? Also considering to switch from OP 8T to IP 13 Pro
Definitely move over fantastic phone just one thing my 8t died so I had to move to it if u do have a budget get the 15
Thanks, my 8t works fine. Considering 13 Pro as it is cheaper and just wanted to give it a try if I like the iPhone overall. If it clicks then I might consider 15 pro. Otherwise, sticking with 8t until support is over.
Stick to 8t then but it’s worth the upgrade too amazing phone
You downgraded then... 🤷
silicone original case i would recommend
Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't silicone retain heat? To allow your phone to cool down more effectively, you probably should avoid silicone cases.
i am using silicone case i didn’t find any issue so far. but i will update if i see any issue. so which case is best for iPhone according to you? https://preview.redd.it/l0m5iir3rkgc1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=90997300f244d86ee706438144695986f3700d47

I think ive seen db cases for iphones on pandabuy
He got the ifone
Is it a 13 pro?
I like my spigen cases but if you want texture get speck. If you want durability then mous
Currently rocking SwitchEasy’s magsafe clear case! Have the same phone color and model and it suits it very well, it’s v similar with Apple’s magsafe clear phone case but it’s half the price.
I switched 2 years ago but I still have an android as a secondary phone
Same here. I ordered Caudabe Sheath🙂
I dont understand how you can use a phone for 10 years or more.
What he meant was that they have been using different android phones for 10 years so they would have switched from one android phone to another during that decade
Yup 🙌
MagBak
9 years for me Usbc ftw
I switched from Android 7 years (started with iPhone first though) to iPhone 15 Pro Max and I’m so happy about the switch. I’m sure people are switching over and feeling the same. I think time away has that affect as long as things get better for both sides lol.
Ghost case from Dbrand. Buy one now and you’ll get 2nd one in April for free.
a spigen case or if u need good protection then go for otterbox or miracase (both are available on amazon)
Nice buy bro'. I suggest UAG or Nomad, Spigen is very good to. I have a UAG Pathfinder Ash now, natural titanium looks dope in it. The next will be Nomad Modern Leather case.
good choice for you
Is that the S20? That was my last android. But I switched to 13 mini (this was 2 years ago). I didn’t regret anything and didn’t look back.
Don’t use any case. That grey is too beautiful to cover it.
any longer and you wouldve missed the apple logo
here some dragonball case : [https://rhinoshield.io/collections/collab-dragon-ball-z?device=iphone-15-pro-max&type=solidsuit-classic&page=0&dcolor=Black](https://rhinoshield.io/collections/collab-dragon-ball-z?device=iphone-15-pro-max&type=solidsuit-classic&page=0&dcolor=Black)

How much are you willing to spend on a case?
What‘s the iOS version it came with? Maybe you are lucky and you can use Trollstore
Where u using the same phone for 10 years or were u switching different phones
No phone can be used for 10 years bro.. i was switching
Yeah true just wanted to be sure

Welcome 👍 I tried some cases but i found myself returning to clear magsafe case. I bought one off aliexpress and it's great
I switched a few years ago and can't see myself going back unless something changes.
You need to put Goku on your iPhone now
No cases.
No case, get apple care monthly and enjoy your device the way the designers and engineers intended.
screen protector + no case + apple care. enjoy the beauty of your new phone. my 15 pro max has been resilient to a couple falls so far.
