Controversial Topic I know, what's your take? 😂 To check out my Best Phones of 2022: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Zs9krZil1rjegJs.html

I think usb-c is another huge win for Android. being able to charge everything from laptop to phone to speaker with the same cable is game changing

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.

This was the longest Apple commercial I've ever seen 😂

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 :-)!

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.

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.

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.

This one is rigged against Android, like come on Google Assistant is WAY better than Siri.

“The most boring team to watch is often the best one” ~ Mkbhd 2022

If you use Android regularly then split screen is definitely a huge help. It made handling tasks easier.

This whole video seems like Arun is interviewing Marques. Instead you both should have kept separate scoreboards and avarage it out at the end.

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"!

I think it is funny that MKBHD chooses IOS over Android in almost every topic but has a S21 Plus as a personal phone 😂

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.

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 😊

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.

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.

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

What did you guys smoke before making this video? 😂

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 KZfaq review on an item I wanna buy

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 )

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.

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

this argument is so old by now & also irrelevant now. Both systems have their equal pros & cons.📱

I switched from Apple to Android a few years ago. There's no way I'm going back to IOS ever again! I love the freedom I find in Android phones.

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.

i have never seen a 20 minutes long advertisment

Samsung clearly have the best display, MKBHD was too biased and let him have the display and photography even though he disagreed.

15:18 “I accidentally trigger Siri more than I use Siri😂” Yeah that’s the quote.

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 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.

Just remember this..when you buy an iphone its not yours..

Arun trying to be unbiased: Marques: "Android is actually really good, but I give that to iPhone because I like them"

The collab we never knew we needed 😃

The problem is they are comparing one phone to hundreds of thousands of phones

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.

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.

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.

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😂

NOBODY IS TALKING ABOUT ANDROID ONLY EMULATOR GAMES

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.

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..."

Welcome to iSheep club marques and Arun 😂

Marque's thinking is just unmatched sometimes. You feel "oh this is a new way of thinking". Very good video.

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.

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.

Just knobbing that icock slowly too🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣, the way yall make Android sound I might get one

pricing is worse more than 1 point because the majority of people can't buy a flagship, so android is an obvious choice if you are not rich

I generally prefer android as it offers more stuff that I'm looking for

Arun: Hi what's up MKBHD: iphone

I love this two of my favourite KZfaqrs together!😊

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

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".

This video sponsored by Apple. Thanks for Watching .

I love how I got a apple advertisement before the video 😂

A few things I have noticed about the pixel camera, if I a snapped picture looks like crap, the image processing fixes it within 2 seconds, it has a quick camera shortcut double tap power for camera without unlocking the phone and hit volume rocker to take a picture, taking a picture that way shakes the hell out of the phone, I'm always sure the picture is ruined yet somehow the picture looks like I held the phone still. Its remarkable, I'm taking pictures of a meter all day. It does have some difficulty focusing at times though, it will focus on the glare rather than the digits on the screen of my meter. Coming from a razor 2 with a 12mp camera I'm more than impressed

This one felt really weird to watch. It almost felt Apple sponsored. Because even in the cases where Android was the clear winner, MKBHD would stretch really far for iphone. I'm not necessarily team Android or iPhone. I think iPhones a better business phone and Android is better for leisure. But none of that seemed to factor into anything. The numbers didn't even Factor into anything

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.

14:03 still can’t change your icons on ios without a dumb banner every time you open an app

This is so biased and not 100% accurate.

Good lord, I thought Marques was a sucker for Apple but now it's on another level.

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 are paid to be bias

The fact that both of them aren't aware of Nearby Share on Android is shocking af.

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 :/

Great work as always! Keep the good work coming.. I recently got my list with pros and cons of the iOS and Android and I am about to switch.. I am sharing my thoughts in my channel :)

I switched from android to IOS a year ago and I honestly missed the customization, fast charge, hi res audio and most of the mid to high end screens, ios seemed very restrictive and less value for each dollar spent

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.

i feel comparing iphones to "android" is a flawed comparison on its face. Because "Android" is a whole ecosystem, comparing "most androids" while excluding the androids that have best features to iphone completely misses the point of android. You want a phone that has the best camera? androids got one for you. You want a phone with a phenomenal battery, androids got you. Thats the whole point of android.

This is perfect. My two fav you tuber

Tim: Promote Iphone pls (even if you use Android) MKBHD/MWTB: Yes

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

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

Can you make a video of how much it would cost to switch from android to apple. Like the complete list such as the iphone, ipad, macbook, mac pc, earpods, the earpod max, the watch.... everything. It doesn't have to be the top of the line items, just a bit of a estimate of how much it would add up to, to comvert completely to the apple ecosystem

I moved away from Android years ago and except for very weird edge cases, I don't miss using it that much. Honestly if there was an Android phone with removable batteries, a headphone jack, and gets more than 1-2 years of support for under $300, I would prob choose that as my next phone since I don't really get calls or texts as much anymore. Though I am extremely lazy and prob won't switch either way bc I have 7 years worth of files on iOS and it's a pain in the neck to move stuff over even natively.

"android has a slight advantage" - ok let's call this a tie then "seems like they are pretty even in this category" - ok apple gets the point! "several android models do it better, but some don't". = point for apple!

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 am an Android user, but I believe that both are great phones and everyone has their taste in what they have. (but i do feel kind of offended when someone says iphone is better)

Seeing you two guys in the same video is Amazing 😊

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.

I love how I can just connect, transfer and play / open anything on my Android phone with zero restrictions no software bs.

Without having to watch this video since this subject has been covered so many times. The simple answer is whichever works best for you and your personal needs.

MWTB was confused as hell about the end conclusions but since it was sponsored its okay😂😂😂😂

It really boils down to personal choice. I don't see myself ever switching to Apple because of those little features that Android lets me do, but is a struggle to do with iPhone. Android is more like Windows, it feels like it lets you interact with everything, and instead Apple feels like it restricts you to Apple.

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.

The software features part is kinda relative tho. I live in a country where most people use Android phones, and therefore, no iOS functions are standard for us. iOS users here aren't particularly attached to facetime or iDrop because the situations in which they would come handy are very limited.

Tired of these ads. I want real opinions.

I haven't finished watching the video at all but this is almost a Marques interview but the issue with that is he's an Apple fan. So he'd just prefer it more. He tries to be as unbiased as he can but you can't disagree he is still biased.

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...

When it comes to the widget customizing android has been doing it for ever. It's pretty much endless about what u can do and create. Yes it does take some learning but at the end android is king when it comes to that. And actually it's really not that hard to learn and with thousands of Kwgt and klwp the setups are just endless and unique

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

time stamp for anyone interested 0:26 display 2:11 performance 3:43 battery 5:38 camera(photography) 8:28 camera(video) 8:51 eco conciousness 9:55 software reliabilty 12:17 software features 16:41 software support 17:52 pricing hope it helps

Android gets a huge point for properly being able to set a default app for everything. iOS does not let you do that for many important elements.

The Pixel portfolio has been delightful! Would recommend Pixel 7 to anyone!

i found the video frustrating as every edge case where iphone was better than android iphone gets a point while every edge case where android is better “oh well you could make a case” and they tie

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?

The problem with comparing Android to iPhone is that you are comparing one company to hundreds of companies and from that fact alone, through all of Android's collective time and knowledge, Android always wins. Because of variety, it's not a fair fight. Now say if you were to compare iPhone to Samsung that would be a whole different story.

I almost thought it was a fair comparison until you talked about the camera. I can see the bias and inclination towards the iPhone.

User of both worlds here: One thing regarding the Eco part, in my view, is, that a plus for the iPhone is that it seems to keep its value and operability for quite some time. Most of my Android phones become unusable after ~3 years. But a big minus that counteracts all the positive things regarding the eco part is Apple's hostile behavior in actively sabotaging every attempt to repair devices, blocking 3rd party repair-services, and making the devices unmaintainable overall - or if possible, making the official, proprietary repairs more expensive than new devices (hint to the Louis Rossman YT Channel). Plus, I often get the feeling that you pay the most by far for their devices, but they act like you do not really own them. Which is especially mind-blowing given the price.
