    this site has jumped the shark. how can anyone think this phone has the best camera system??? Vivo X100 anyone? Magic 6 Pro anyone???

      rizki1, 20 Apr 2024I just answered what he wanted, want something simpler and ... moreBad inequals simple. iPhone SE3 is not simple, it's terrible. Just because it has a home button does make it simpler but you're trading that away for the most garbage specs out there.

      I really recommend the iPhone 13 Pro. 14 Pro is the same thing. 12 Pro has no 120hz and 5G kinda sucked on it

        PureOS, 19 Apr 2024Stay on Android, believe me. I was on ios, and it was a cage.When I do get a better Android phone, say OP12R or when the Nubia Z60 Ultra has 8/256 config available, I will cancel my iCloud (I'm keeping Apple Music, Spotify is hell) and dip.

        I really wanna try out the Nothing Phone (2a) but I heard the phone doesn not have the US 5G bands :(

          I have the iPhone 15 pro max and I love it it doesn’t overheat like everyone else is saying I had it for 2 months and it’s working fine it’s nice to have a iPhone having 8gb of RAM instead of 6

            Over expensive phone

              reviewer didn't use a case, did he use protectors on the display and camera lenses?

              He is right, iOS is a "quagmire of poor design decisions". eg : Assistive Touch sucks. Why couldn't iOS do it like Xiaomi's QuickBall, which is really useful the way it minimizes to the side of the display.

              Why can't library do a simple thing like sorting photos properly like on android?

              etc.

              Great phone, but an extremely annoying OS.

                The only phone that rival IOS in term of UI responsiveness and smoothness IMHO Is ROG phone. Currently I'm using the ROG Phone 7 as daily driver, and this thing is blazing fast, unrivalled smoothness, and feature rich (compared to other android phone). There are 2 drawbacks, which are only 2 major software updates, and subpar camera.

                  I understand some people may want to switch to iOS just because it is buttery smooth and optimzed, but you should give origin os (vivo, iqoo) or magic os (honor) a try. It is exactly what you expect in iOS.

                    Mills, 19 Apr 2024Terrible battery life and bezels + screen even for 2022. If... moreI just answered what he wanted, want something simpler and switch iOS and iPhone SE 2022 is the simplest. Calling Android boring, maybe iOS is more freedom for him.

                      I like the design... it feels exclusive (I'm using the ProMax though)... I don't like flagship phones that keep on changing the design every year. It doesn't feel right for me. LOL

                        Mills, 20 Apr 2024Besides the use of no third party app stores (for US) and n... moreWhat a waste of hardware. smh.

                          At some point Apple had pretty good camera processing, but I have no idea what they're doing with the 15 Pro. The pictures don't really look all that good in terms of detail rendition. The details all look like plastic when you zoom in just a little and the telephoto is even worse in this regard. Even Chinese OEMs tend to have better detail rendition nowadays

                            Besides the use of no third party app stores (for US) and no developer options, iOS isn't that bad. I have to tolerate it. It does give you more creativity without downloading apps than iOS 15 and 16 ever did. Shortcuts, lock screen editor and phone wallpapers are your only way to customize without visiting the App Store.

                            I prefer Android still. iOS is just restrictive, that's all. Rate it 6/10 tbh

                              My new iPhone 15 Pro drains battery as a mother jom! 20% after 5 hours of lightly usage and 2h of screen inactive
                              After 14 days I re-install it without iCloud-backup. Let's hope it fixed the problem.

                                Yikes has it been 7 months already 😬

                                  "Swiped to a picture in the Photos app and quickly want to double tap to zoom? Too bad, it won't work because the photo is still slowly sliding into place even though it looked like it stopped moving. Only when the animation completely stops will it accept the double tap gesture to zoom and it's hard to tell when exactly it stops."

                                  That's a lame complaint, honestly.

                                  I tried it on my 15 and unless you wanted to do the zoom immediately (which is unrealistic), it's like half a second after the animation ends that now responds. And half a second is probably not enough time for a person to recognize what the photo Is about.

                                    Anton .el PAPI., 19 Apr 2024Boring but it's the most famous phone in the world! I... moreLamo. Used by most famous people doesn't make iOS any fun. And most of the celebs are hardly educated. The most common thing they do is scroll down social media apps. And remember the market share of iOS is just over 20%. Without the contribution of NA people and the ecosystem, the market share wouldn't even be 10% at most. Your words don't make any sense and I can't expect more from the fanbase.

                                      Jin, 19 Apr 2024Depends, I like some people don't lock themselves into... moreThis is my experience, I've had a foot in both worlds. What enables me to move easily from iOS to Android and back is because I rarely buy paid apps, never buy music, or audiobooks and accessories. For instance, I'd never buy the airpods, because I'd lose features by moving from iOS to Android and there are better earbuds out there.

                                        justasmile, 19 Apr 2024One step into it and you're not able to go back to And... moreUtterly bs. My friend is a long-time iOS user. He has 14 pro max. His father recently bought him a Galaxy S24u. He's enjoying every moment of using Galaxy S24u. Even when we talked in an international language forum, other people got weird radio connectivity noise when my friend used 14 Pro Max. But his voice remains crystal clear when he uses s24u. That's the difference. He doesn't even use Goodlock modules to put his 14 Pro Max in shame further.
