  1. I have the iphone 12 pro, its a great phone cameras are good video quality is excellent. I would love to switch to samsung but im in ireland and we have the inferior chipset which puts me off. Last samsung i owned was s4 mini.

  2. the s21 ultra looks ugly to me which is the only reason why I'm wanting the iPhone. I've been an android user all my life but now am considering iPhone and the look of the s21 ultra is the only reason…

  3. I’d use both.. I use a 12 Pro and Tab S7. I love iOS but there’s things necessary for my work as a developer I need on the go with Android. I know many can’t afford or want to do this but if you can then why not?

  4. I've had Iphone since day one, the only one I haven't had is the 12 … I went from the 11 Pro Maxx to the 21 ultra and I love it. I've had android plenty of times in the past going from Samsung to IPhone, but the sS21 ultra to me is a better phone. Plus I'm tired of paying for everything with apple. Apple is really just a basic phone that tricks people into buying a new one every year. There's to much to do on the S21 ultra that Apple doesn't even try to do.

  5. I switched from Samsung note 20 ultra to iPhone 12 Pro 2 days ago due the fact that I paid over a £1,000 for the note 20 ultra and the battery was diabolical and intermittent heating up for no reason was a joke. camera never focused its all hype.
    and Samsung wanted to repair it after only 5 days I wanted the s21 but due to fact they should have made the note 20 ultra a better phone than push most of the fixes to the s21 ultra forcing me to pay over another £1,000 for probably more of the same but now getting the WQHD at 120hz this time round…..and no SD slot.
    my note 20 had 256GB internal but 43GB was used up instantly by the OS 43GB!
    in the UK the S21 ultra is £1,149 for the 128GB model imagine how much is left after the OS takes nearly a third because of bloatware its not cheaper at all they made cheaper models that have plastic backs.
    the Ultra costs more than the Note 20 and not much better specs to be honest.

    I moved to the iPhone just to avoid buying another Samsung last iPhone I had was the iPhone 5s so let's see what's changed.
    this will go as well when I have more time to choose another device if it doesn't serve my purpose at least Apple when they remove stuff admit they remove stuff not like Samsung that mock Apple for removing stuff with their silly commercials then turning around a few month later and do exact same thing!

    they are an erratic company if you ask me and I have had enough of there Exynos garbage ,battery, issues, over heatingrendering
    im not an Apple fan boy I didn't want to get an iPhone really not at all I was going to get the S21 ultra when I sold the note 10 but Samsung removed the SD slot so I had nothing to loose trying an the iPhone 12 I moved to Android for the reasons mentioned in this video but its my last Samsung not my last Android..

  6. I use an iPhone and I use iMessage and dark sky and I already have iPhone cables but I want good cameras good battery wireless charging I also love the track pad on the iPhone keyboard

  7. You made the right choice I did the same thing I tried a iphone it was so dull and boring that's the good thing with android If you don't like something you can change it.

  8. Hey there been an avid iPhone user for 12 years and I recently switched the ultra from my pro I only got 2 weeks ago! My long boyfriend and I have always been competitive with this subject and he got the galaxy S 21+ and I was so shocked by the resolution and how crisp it was. I then got so frustrated with Apple because I thought why did they drop the ball so much! I’ve always been holding the torch for apple but they got too use to ppl picking iPhone blindly no matter what, but we still want a great phone for what we pay for it! Android and iPhone have always gone toe to toe and this time I am sad to admit that android won. Wtf Apple!?!

  9. I have given Apple another chance and after 5 months, I’m ready to move back to Android. I just have to convince myself that I’d be making the right choice for me. I don’t care about iMessage and I’ve used FaceTime about 5 or 6 times. But I know there are other apps that can do the same thing. I’m still on the fence but I’m leaning toward returning to Android. Especially with the good deals on the S21 U right now.

  10. I went to iPhone about 4 months ago for the first time. Stupidest decision ever. Apples interface is so clunky, and inefficient. I’m spending the $850 to pay the phone off, and upgrade today. I hate this thing. Picture taking sucks too.

  11. I grew up on Androids as well, switching to Apple when the Iphone 6S came out & have had the 8, X, & now 11 Pro since swapping. However, I have been debating switching back to the Android & going with the S21 Ultra……you may have just pushed me over the edge!

  12. Iam a user of Samsung from more than 6 years. I have planned to buy Iphone 12 pro rather than S21 Ultra. becoz they are always behind in camera comparison.

  13. Don't be so quick. My S21 Ultra overheats when I video call while surfing the net. Multitasking was one of the only remaining advantages over apple. Exynos camera not as good as Snapdragon.

  14. I've been an iOS guy for years but it breaks my heart how petty has Apple become on features just to justify next year's incremental updates. The fact that the iPad Air haa touchID and the 12 family doesn't was the last drop for me. I love my 12 Pro but it's such a pain to use outside when my face is covered 80% of the time. The stainless steel collecting fingerprints like the CSI and the lack of 120hz in favor of 5G that barely anyone can use now were the last nails of the coffin. I have both the Ultra and the 12 Pro and I just can't go back to the iPhone… I hate Samsung emoji and how bad is social media on Android, but in every single other aspect the Ultra destroys the 12 and possibly the 13 too.
