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

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

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 :-)!

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'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.

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

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

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 video sponsored by Apple. Thanks for Watching .

What did you guys smoke before making this video? 😂

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

Arun: Hi what's up MKBHD: iphone

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

Tired of these ads. I want real opinions.

Man I tell you, of all the collabs on KZfaq this one was by far the most enjoyable to watch. I wish you guys did more stuff together.

The collab we never knew we needed 😃

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

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"!

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

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

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.

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

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

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.

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.

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

I think you are paid to be bias

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.

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.

Apple glazers

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.

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

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.

The fact this video is 20:23 minutes and they made it In 2023😂😂😂

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

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.

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.

The fact that didn't make this iPhone vs Samsung makes this kinda stupid, the whole video gets dragged in so many ways when it just doesn't have too

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.

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

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

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

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

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.

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.

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.

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 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.

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 is so biased and not 100% accurate.

2.5/7.5 seriously?

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...

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?

5:34 Did he just say Android is objectively better but he still prefers iPhone?

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

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".

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

This is the best collab ever 🔥

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

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

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.

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.

I love this two of my favourite KZfaqrs together!😊

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..."

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.

24 hours without charge is impressive to these guys. *looks at android motorola thats been on 15% battery for three days*

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

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

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.

MKBHD was very consistent about iPhones

I knew it they would give all the points to iphone when I saw the smirks and laughter.

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

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

I regret not taking use of the cool Huawei Cam gimmicks more times before it broke

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

It blows mymind that they say they don't use the Samsung multi-tasking features cos I personally find the little notification bubbles that pop up and open a little window without you leaving what you're doing indispensable. I love that I can quickly reply a message while seeing the messages screen without leaving what I'm doing. It's great.

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😂

This is perfect. My two fav you tuber

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.

Come ooon guys, you really went a bit rough on Android there.. I've been using Android for almost the last 9 years until I eventually decided in last year’s September to get the iconic iPhone 13, and am not regretting my decision to be honest ( well, maybe not much) but I still really miss lots of things that Android has such as missing what freedom really feels like. Dude, the ability of using any 3rd party device like watches, TV's etc.. so perfectly & full-features as well as the ability of charging anything using only one cable (usb-c) and the fact that apple lacks these stuff cannot be just ignored, like seriously you cannot act like naaaah it’s not a big deal. Also the split screen feature man.. I really miss this it was a huge thing for my daily use, the ability of multitasking was a game changer for me and mark my words, when apple does it people will go crazy about it! And yeah one last thing, the fact that I cannot go past 5 days in the call log to search for calls in MY phone that uses MY account which holds My info still makes me sick till this day.. I know that apple did it on purpose due to privacy stuff and props to them for giving privacy an important role in their approach, but every time I go to my call log looking for a number then I remember that I can’t do this on ios I go wondering what in the flarking hell they smoke in apple 😅. Still a great phone though, I am really pleased with my Iphone 13, it’s a great phone after all, but as I said you went a bit rough on Android guys though I really enjoyed this collab a lot! Keep up the good 👍

so im still owning a samsung 2019 midrange. So better to get 15 pro than s24?

Cap

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.

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.

This collaboration deserve a Grammy.

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

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 :/

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.

Seeing you two guys in the same video is Amazing 😊

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

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

NOBODY IS TALKING ABOUT ANDROID ONLY EMULATOR GAMES

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.

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

I have owned a lot of phones; I used to love HTC, then I found Apple but then I dived back into Android on occasion. I currently have S22 Ultra and the iPhone 13 Pro. I love a lot of things about the Samsung... but I would give the edge to the iPhone as more intuitive and more user friendly for the average phone/camera/streaming person. That said, I think the marking should have been a lot closer than how it was done here, personally. The S22 Ultra is a beast of a phone.

I love this collaboration!!!
