And by goodness, did they ever have some feedback. Oh. Oh, finally. >> Sorry, I didn't see it ringing, sir. >> Don't call me sir. So, how's it going with our guinea pigs? Are they clamoring for their androids back yet? Actually, no. I think all three are strongly considering switching to iPhone. >> What? I cannot believe I'm not here to hear about this in person again. >> Go talk to them. Find out every detail. >> Well, you heard the man. Tell me everything. >> Oh, sorry. >> One more thing. Get it? Cuz Apple Dbrand, >> specifically their Ghost 2 case and Prism screen protector. The case is designed to offer amazing drop protection while still being stylish and see-through, letting your Dbrand skin shine. And their Prism screen protector is also designed to be see-through so that you can see your screen. And it protects your phone in case of any bumps or bruises. Check them out by heading to I am very short.com, which by the way, I don't even think it's that true. See, look. I can reach these black Hawthorne berries almost. Ow. The blackberries are attacking me. Ow. Ow. My shins. Every phone upgrade starts with the same thing, which is switching to a new device. Whether you're going from iPhone to iPhone, Android to Android, or crossing the ecosystem. And based on my quick conversation that I had with you guys just a couple weeks ago, it seems that there was some struggles. Starting with Justin and Natalie, you guys had some issues with your old Apple ID accounts, either backing up some weird contacts on WhatsApp or you actually had to recover your account. Tell me about that process. >> That was interesting because it was from so long ago. I think the last time I used it was like 2014ish and it was linked to a really, really old phone number. So, I had to figure out what that phone number was to begin with, which was interesting. And I end up having to go through like multiple different contacts to figure out someone that had my old number. >> But were you able to recover it? >> Yes, I was able to recover it. So, luckily I didn't need access to the old number. I just needed the old number. But for weird whatever reason, they didn't explain. It took 2 weeks for them to give me an answer on whether or not they were going to give me access to my account again. Like I get it probably like for security reasons. They're probably like checking other avenues to make sure that like, you know, this account actually isn't in active use and this person's just trying to get into their old account. But eventually I was able to get back in. So, >> hey, at least you got it back. >> Yeah. >> And Natalie, you explained that it would seem to be backing up some old phone numbers on your WhatsApp and wasn't bringing in over enough people or whatever. Your contacts when you >> It was bringing over like old contacts from like I had the iPhone, iPod touch like over like 10 years ago. So, I had those contacts come in, but none of my actual contacts from my phone came in. >> Okay. I see. It's nice that Apple had all that information, but in your case, it was not helpful. That was a really loud ding. >> Yeah. How do you turn it off? Yeah, same problem. >> Turn. >> I actually don't have sound on mine. I think maybe I turned it off, but mine just vibrates, so I'm okay with that. But >> we're going to get into the hardware later, but that's really funny that it interrupted us. Avon, how was your switch from Android to iPhone? >> It was so painful. So, when you said some struggles, I made a face cuz I was like, that was not some struggle. So, I was like, and now that I've heard your experience, I feel like yours was way worse. You couldn't even switch for 2 weeks. >> Oh, I just end up making a temporary account just so I could actually like do some stuff. And then once I was able to get back in, then I just signed in with my normal fine. >> Okay. Well, it took me a couple days, too, but not because I couldn't recover my old um iPhone account. I had that. But the issue I had was I tried to use the iOS transfer >> between the two and it just wouldn't work. I I don't know why. >> Were you doing it like over cable or over the >> No, I was doing it over Wi-Fi. >> Okay. >> Yeah. Um because Well, I don't I don't know why I did that. I just didn't do >> it was an option that it gives you, so why wouldn't you try it? They just wasn't connecting to each other and I couldn't figure out which phone was the problem. >> Got it. So, did you end up doing the transfer or >> I just did it myself. >> Oh gosh, that must have been painful downloading all your apps and and everything else. Speaking of apps, was there any apps for you guys that either didn't work or didn't come over? >> WhatsApp. >> WhatsApp. >> I was so mad. I didn't do WhatsApp first. I did it at the end. And what I didn't realize was that you have to go through the I don't know what it's called, the iOS transfer process. And if you don't, your message history gets deleted. But I had set everything else up and then I got to WhatsApp and it didn't prompt me and then the only way to do it is to reset your phone and reset it up again and I was like no. >> So you just process you don't want to do it again. >> Yes. And so I lost my entire WhatsApp history which sucked. >> Terrible. Did anybody else have any other app issues or was that the easy part? >> WhatsApp for me as well as like I did the I think it was over Wi-Fi the iOS transfer the feature. I like oh this is kind of cool but it didn't really work. >> Like I still had to download a lot of apps. I forgot what apps, but I still had to download manually through the app store to get the apps that were on my phone. >> Yeah, that's that was the same thing with the apps. Like I had to manually download them, but everything else transferred for me just fine. Like all my text messages came over fine. My contacts came over fine, but I did mine through the cable. I didn't do the wireless transfer. >> Got it. Okay. Well, >> and then the other thing was with my WhatsApp. I have had that problem in my past going from Android to Android. So, I always back up my messages through WhatsApp first and then do the transfer and everything usually works out fine. In this case, I didn't have a problem because I backed it up before starting the transfer. >> Lionus mentioned in part one that you were going to have specific issues with one app. >> I think it was called business calendar. >> Yes. And it doesn't exist on the iPhone. So, I tried the Apple calendar app and then I tried the Google calendar app and I hated them all. >> Okay. And I brought my old phone so I could show why because nobody seems to understand me when I say that it's a problem. Okay. So, for example, when I want to look at my week and I want to see what I've got planned today, I click on this and immediately on the business calendar, you can see all of my things for the day. >> Got it. >> And it's sorted by all day events and time. In this one, it brought me to the actual day, like the single day. And all of the stuff that's all day is at the top. And then I have to scroll for the entire rest of the day. And if I need to go see another day now, I have to click on that back >> and go back. Whereas this, I can just keep going next and I can literally see my entire week all at once. And this I have to go through every single day, scroll up and down. If I miss scrolling far enough, then I miss >> something. I realize how annoying calendar apps and tell you I seen that one. That is so much better. >> Yeah. So, when I'm on the call or when I'm on the phone with the doctor's office trying to book an appointment, I'm like, \"Oh, no. Monday doesn't work for me. How about this day or how about this day?\" It's so easy. >> So much easier. >> During your month though, how much of a pain was that process? because I think Lina said that was going to be a deal breaker for you possibly. But >> yes, so it did waste a ton of time. I ended up using my computer a lot to reschedu things, which isn't the most convenient, but there were other positive things about the iPhone that was time savers that it kind of made it feel like a wash at the end of the day. >> Got it. Was there any other parts of the setup? That's a really loud ding again. My goodness. Was there any other parts of the setup that was either a pro or a con from any of you? the setup for me because I had to download all these apps and I had to reorganize it. I was trying to mirror what my my phone was with how everything was organized. >> So like your widgets or Okay. >> Having to manually add them all back into a specific folder. That took so long. >> Got it. Okay. >> I can't just add apps from a list. I have to drag them all into the bubble >> one by one into >> It was so annoying. >> You're nodding your head in agreement. So Okay. I think that's the most painful thing for a lot of people whenever they go to a new phone. I mean, a lot of people will boast how great iPhone is because you can just do iCloud accounts and it basically mirrors it over. And I think Android's a lot of the same if you go from like Samsung to Samsung. But I want to rate it out of 10. Five is it was I don't know, middle of the road, average, about as normal as any other transfer. 10 is it was so much better. One, it was terrible. Where would you guys rate this? >> One. >> Damn. >> I'm going to say one. >> All right. Hey, at least it's honest. I'm going to say one. Wow. Wow. Much harsher than our like iPhone users last time. >> I think I go a little bit higher than that. I'd say a five, but I kind of was expecting half of these things to come up. >> I do want to talk about the hardware next. Both the iPhone and all of you got a watch as well. What were some of the pros of like the physical device, whether it's the screen, the battery? We'll start with Natalie here. >> Battery was really good for both the watch and the phone. Um the screen is great for both. Yeah, I think overall like positive experience like refresh rate was good. >> Yeah, I had all had a pro. So, you had 120 Hz refresh rate. >> The speakers were nice. Like the audio wise like just playing music if I don't have a boothy speaker around. I play that. It's actually pretty good. >> Nice. Okay, I'm on. >> Yeah, I had the same experience as Natalie with the phone. I actually didn't like my watch very much. I found it wasn't working. Like I would be literally in the middle of playing badminton and it would be like please stand up now or like please get exercise. It's like okay. Like if the whole point of all this is to be able to, you know, check my stats, well, I can't really rely on it. And for battery life, I don't know about yours, but mine lasted a day and a half, but that's really inconvenient because halfway through the next day, it dies. And so I have either half a day of not being able to use my watch or I charge it at night and then it doesn't monitor the sleep or do any of these other things. >> Yeah, that's interesting. I I had never thought of it from that perspective. Almost half a day is worse than if it just did one day cuz you had know you can consistently charge it. Justin, what were some pros for Uh yeah, the screen was definitely a massive upside and the fact that it's smaller than my other phone, which I don't have for comparison here, but yeah, fits in my pocket a lot better. I noticed I was dropping it a lot less, which was great. >> Do you think it's cuz of the size? >> Yes, 100%. And the weight. >> I 100% agree with you. I did not realize it, but that was one of the things I wanted to experiment with, and it it's true. >> Well, even if you did drop it, thankfully Dbrand sent over those cases. >> Oh, yeah. No, they did great. >> These are awesome. >> I dropped mine probably the same amount as I dropped my other phone. I actually cracked the screen protector. >> Yeah, I cracked mine, too. I replaced mine before the shoot. >> Okay. It didn't damage the phone, though, right? >> The phone is fine. It's just a screen protector that crack. >> Yeah, savior. We're good. >> Thanks, Dbrand. >> I think I tovon's point with the watch better cuz I charge mine overnight. I don't monitor my sleep and that's why I was able to like have a full day with no problem. >> Yeah, that was the same too. Like every night I just put my phone and the watch on the charger and wake up. They're both good to go kind of thing. >> Yeah, I see. Like if you need to monitor your sleep and use it during the day, I guess that is >> I was just trying to use the different features. I was >> It's built in, so you might as well at least give it a try, right? >> Oh, I immediately shut it off. >> Oh, you didn't want it to track your sleep? >> Uh or any of the fitness stuff? It was the notifications were driving me absolutely bonkers. >> Oh, interesting. Okay. Was there any other notification issues with the watch or the phone? >> All the notifications worked and that was part of the problem. Well, what I was going to say was um when you do put them on a charger though, if you pick up your phone first and you start swiping things away, well, when you pick up your watch after, all of those same notifications come back. >> Like when you swipe it away on your phone and it's still Yeah. Okay, that is true. I think >> so. You had that issue, too. >> Yeah. So, it's annoying. It just felt like duplicating. So, half the time I didn't even take my watch in the morning. >> Another piece of hardware that I think all of you brought up was the camera and I think overall it was very positive. Avon, you actually mentioned you really like the uh the live videos. >> I do. I had never experienced that before, but when I'm taking shots, like especially action shots, it was just so nice to capture that little moment and like my son was playing baseball and I was able to get like him actually swinging the ball, which was so cool. >> I do actually really like that feature from iPhone. I remember when it was announced, a lot of Android users did criticize it as almost pointless and seems weird, but it almost feels like just a little moment in time that you get to rewatch again, right? >> Okay. My question though is how do you watch it on the computer? because I downloaded all my photos and it just shows up as a separate file and I couldn't actually see it. Do I need to have an Apple computer to be able to do that? >> I'll throw the instructions on screen because I don't know off the top of my head and that's a good thing cuz I just said send me the video for the edits and I hope I can include it now. >> I will say doesn't Android also have that feature? At least the Samsung like you can turn on the Pixel have that too. You just have to turn it on. >> There is now a feature with it. I believe it was iPhone first. I can be corrected if I'm wrong, but it is now a thing. And as the industry does, when iPhone does something, Android moves towards it. Like no headphones, >> the other way around, you know, sometimes. But >> that's true. Is there anything that was on your Android phone from a feature-wise hardware that you kind of missed on your iPhone, whether it's the placement of the buttons or the power button? >> I missed the back button. >> Yep. Back button. >> Got it. >> Ah, cuz it felt like the back button was always moving depending on which app I was in, >> which sucks. I like it just always being in the same spot. >> So, you use the three buttons instead of gestures. Did any of you guys try gestures on the iPhone? Whether it's >> Well, I I did use gestures, too. Okay. >> It just wasn't as convenient sometimes. >> Got it. You like that always in the same spot. You know where to hit it kind of thing. >> Yeah. >> One other hardware thing was I kind of joked about lack of headphone jack or whatever. Justin, you actually mentioned you really like the Bluetooth. For some reason, the Bluetooth was just like blackmagic for you. >> Yeah. I have no idea how it was that good cuz I got the Beats Buds. I think they were. >> Yeah, that was part of your purchase. >> Yeah. And I was able to put my phone down at my desk and go walk clear across the warehouse, walk outside, and the audio didn't cut out whatsoever. It was actually crazy. >> Well, there you go. That's definitely a positive. Is there any other final comments or cons that you want to come up with for the hardware of either device? >> I don't like the camera button. >> You don't like the camera button >> to open the app? Sure is convenient, but I've never I've tried it once to actually take a picture, but because of the actuation, >> it just it just ruins. >> Got it. Did any of you guys get to try the shutter button and use it? >> Yes. Um, I didn't mind it. Uh, I found the touch was a little bit hard to get used to. I don't know how much that was because of the Dbrand case, but they claimed that it's compatible with it, so I'm assuming it would be the same whether or not >> it was like that. But with that being said, the telephoto lens on that camera was actually crazy. You see, I was out in the mountains out in Hope there. But you see that little spot there? >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> That's zoomed in with the telephoto lens. >> So, that was really cool to be able to shoot like really far off into a distance like that. >> Yeah. >> So, I was really annoyed by it because you double click to open um what's it called? What is this thing called? >> Apple Pay. >> Apple Pay. Thank you. But then when you double click the camera, you accidentally take a photo. >> Oh, I see. So, even the amount of times you probably accidentally like took a photo of your desk or something. >> My shoes. Yeah. >> Yeah. >> Awesome. Okay. So, we're going to rate it again out of 10. Five is the hardware is on par with your Android. 10 is it's much better. One is it's much worse. Where does the scale lie? >> I would say seven. >> Seven. Cuz you enjoyed it overall more than your Android. >> Um, I would say about a 6 and a half. >> Okay. A little bit more. Eight. Wow. The highest score so far again. Okay. We're going to get into the iOS and the software side of things for both the watch and the iPhone. Was there any immediate pros and cons when you started using iOS 18? >> Oh, I loved Face ID. >> Face ID. Yeah. So fast. I love it. >> Just for unlocking the phone when you first pick it up or whatever. >> Or for apps like um banking apps or just whatever. Just general login. It was so nice. >> Got it. And you you're nodding agreement. Face ID as well. >> Yeah, pretty fast. >> That's great. Is there anything else that stands out? >> Um, the other thing that I really found better was the voice to text. It was so much more accurate and even when I was saying things and it was getting it wrong at the beginning, based on the rest of the sentence, it was correcting it after the fact, which was so nice. >> Oh, that's nice. Kind of adjust it. >> I was able to actually use it, which is really different than here. Like I just gave up using it on here. >> The watch app integration was a lot better than on the Android side. Okay. >> So, for getting in and out of the building using the ubiquity app, there wasn't a Ubiquity app on the Android side. So now I can actually get in and out of the building using the watch, which is so much more convenient, especially >> on the Android watch side is what you're talking about. Okay. Okay. So you had it on your iPhone watch. Perfect. You mentioned uh speech to text. Did any of you guys have any issues with the keyboard? Cuz I know some people don't like the keyboard. Everyone's unanimous agreement here. You seem the most passionate. We'll start with Justin. I get why they did it because of the rounded corners at the bottom, but my finger placement is always wrong cuz I always want to be towards the bottom cuz I'm used to a square phone and I always type off the screen or I hit like the period button when I don't want to or I accidentally hit the space bar and my sentences look all stupid. >> You're nodding in agreement. Did you struggle with the same thing? >> Yeah, pretty much. And then I'm sure if you bring up my text history with anybody, you'll see there's always a space before exclamation marks or question marks or anything like that. cuz you're just so used to double space for the period, but then you forget for all the other things. Yeah. >> The keyboard for me, so I have numbers on the top of the row with the letters >> on your Samsung. >> Yeah, on the Samsung. So if I needed to type letter numbers, it's so convenient. It's right there, but I have to switch it every time. So that was my >> When you're in accounting, that is a huge thing. >> Yeah, you're dealing with numbers as a job. So >> the camera, I know I talked to you about this before. It doesn't remember the setting that I had it in. So if I wanted to take a photo in like 16 by9, I had to always go change it to 16 by9. It was always defaulting to 4x3. Even though we changed the setting, it doesn't it actually remembers which mode I was in. So video or photo or portrait. That's what that setting was for. >> So you felt like you had to manually adjust your camera every time you wanted to take a photo. >> That was very annoying. >> I have that problem with my car. It starts at the beginning at the beginning of my playlist every single time. >> Really? When with the Apple CarPlay? Yeah, >> such a weird niche bug that I wouldn't have Maybe it's a feature. Maybe it wants you to start the playlist over. >> I don't know, but I'm sick of Hamilton at this point. >> And I loved that. So, that sucks. >> Now, one thing that was a nice thing that has changed over the years is the customization. I was able to download Google Keyboard and use that instead, which was slightly better, but still had the same issue of the positioning. >> Did you guys download any sort of custom keyboard or >> No, I downloaded Swift Key, which is what I usually use on Android, but I don't remember why. I just gave up partway through. I'm sorry. >> I don't know why. >> Hey, that's >> maybe maybe I was trying to commit and trying to use it properly. I don't know. >> And that's all I can ask for for this month was that you guys tried to commit to using the iPhone. Was there any other pros or cons that you guys found with the iOS experience in general? iPhone users always talk about how amazing it is to AirDrop or transfer files or anything. Did you guys get to try that at all? Cuz you have a MacBook at home, right? Yeah, I did end up trying some of the features out just to see what they do because like I don't use my MacBook a whole lot, but I figured just for this I would try it. And yeah, like the AirDrop stuff, everything worked fine. Tried cop copying over photos, couple videos, stuff like that. But yeah, everything seemed to work just fine. >> Did you guys get to try anything? Cuz we didn't really have like a MacBook to test with, for example. So, >> no. Um, and I think that was part of my problem is that I don't know very many people in the Apple ecosystem, so I didn't actually get to benefit from that. >> Yeah. Cuz one of the things you discovered in part one was if you brought the two iPhones close together, you can actually like transfer contacts between each other and I guess no one got to experiment with that. >> Um, no, not with that, but FaceTime is pretty sweet being able to FaceTime with my sister and my niece and nephew and stuff like that. So that that was cool >> cuz they all had iPhones and whatever. Yeah. Did you guys get to try a FaceTimed at all? >> No, because the same thing Apple uh Apple ecosystem. If I don't have other people on it, then I can't try it. >> It does seem like a limiting factor. I think I actually have like majority of my friends have iPhone but I I don't use the airdrop cuz we have a WhatsApp group so it's we already have a system in place right so I didn't have to yeah I didn't have to like FaceTime just use WhatsApp call right >> if anybody else has any final comments though whether it what what would it be about >> I tried out the public beta of iOS 26 >> I didn't ask that because I didn't think anyone was going to try iOS 26 >> I did it on I updated on Thursday >> okay what are your thoughts >> uh so far so good it because it's a beta it is lacking like the, you know, the Apple polish. Everything works super smooth, but I do really like the look of it. It does look much nicer. >> Did you try like the liquid glass stuff? >> Yeah, that's what that's what I have on right now. And yeah, it's really pretty actually. >> Someone who liked liquid glass. >> Yeah. So, it's all like transparent and stuff like that now. >> See, you could do that with your Android. >> Yeah, you could a long time ago. >> Dynamic Island. I don't get the point of it. >> Oh, >> I don't like it. >> You put a pet on it though. You said it was >> I don't really see a much use of it. Like if they put notification icons there, sure. But it's just a black notch there that I don't really see. >> But you can like click into it and like do a bunch of customization stuff. Did you get to try that? >> No. Like I click it and it doesn't do anything. But >> it's supposed to like open and show you your music that's playing or >> Well, I can swipe down. That happens. >> I do agree. It is quite an ugly eyesore. It's quite large on the phone screen. Did you guys have any other issues or experiences with dynamic island? Um, I was actually trying to do what Natalie was doing and do like a little dumb pet thing. There was like a little Pokemon one or whatever, but like 90% of the apps seemed like scams. >> Oh, speaking of apps, when you guys downloaded things from the app store, did you notice you can't sort by rating when you're just searching for something? >> I never sorted. >> Oh, >> you can't sort by rating. >> No. Is that a me thing or is that an >> I think that's a fair thing. If you're looking for a specific type of app, you want to search by rating. What was an example? Um I I wanted to download Suduku and I didn't have one already. So I was trying to find the best one. >> Okay. >> Yeah. >> Did it give you like most downloads? Did it give you high like what was the order? >> I don't remember. Okay. Let's let me see. >> Speaking of downloading apps, I found it annoying where you have to double click the home button just to download the app. >> You can't just click get and it will download. >> That was one. >> It's not paid. It's a free app. So why do I have to confirm with my face? Right. >> Got it. That was kind of thing that kind of annoyed me with the um Apple Pay is you'd put it near it and then be like double click to confirm pay and then you have to like look over and get the P sign to work. Yeah. >> Okay. No, it's not sorted by most downloaded. So there's one that has 246,000 then 27 then 89. >> Okay. >> Then 504 then 7.7. It's all over the place. >> But you can't change the sorting to be by no >> highest rated. iPhone's telling you which one to download. The one at the bottom >> pretty much. But the one at the top is an ad supported one. >> Oh, there you go. >> Well, that's why they're that's that's why they're telling you to download that one. >> The multitasking window, the fact that there's no close all button, stupid. >> And so, like I went to try and find like another see if there was a solution for that. And most of the Reddit comments range from you're stupid. You don't know what you need for your phone to too bad, so sad. >> Just the small things. But it's like the small things get to you that it affects your >> Mhm. I guess that's a good question to ask. Then overall, how would you guys compare iPhone ecosystem or the iOS experience to Android? We'll use our same scale. Five is the exact same. 10 is it's better, one is it's worse. >> Three. >> Three. So, just a little bit worse. >> Actually, I'll bring it down to two. >> Okay. >> Quite a bit more worse. >> Um, I'd probably say a five and a half. >> Okay. >> Yeah. >> So, overall, you think iOS was just a touch better? >> Yeah. But I also noticed that the week that I switched, um, my Android got an update that mimicked some of the same gestures and things like that that the iPhone did. >> So, I don't know. For me, the biggest factor was Face ID. That really was It saved so much time. That's what put it over. >> Did it make up the time for business calendar? >> It did. >> Wow. That's very interesting. Okay, Justin, your rating. >> Yeah, just like as a complete ecosystem together with the watch, the headphones that I got, everything say probably about 7 half, eight. Honestly, I got it. All worked really well for me. I didn't have too many issues this whole time. >> There you go. That's fantastic. The overall final learnable lesson, just like our iPhone users when they tried Android, was it's not the end of the world to switch. It's just kind of a pain in the butt to switch and then over time you either get used to it or it's a one-time pain because you have to redownload stuff. Is that a fair kind of comment to make? Just like last time, Lionus had an offer. He offered our iPhone users to permanently switch to Android if they give up their iPhone. I'm going to give you guys the same offer. You're no longer allowed to use your Android, but you can keep your watch and your iPhone. Are you guys on board with that, or do you really want to go back to Android? >> I'm going back to my Android. >> You're going back to Android? Really? That's so interesting cuz when we did our one-on-one like a week and a half ago, you were pretty on the fence about it. So, >> if I were to say yes right now, it's because it's a newer phone and not because it's iPhone necessarily. I would I'm still team Android after the 30 days here. So, >> I think that's a fair comparison. Avon, >> for me, the biggest pain is the switching and to have to switch back and like I really don't want to. And the dayto-day like there's pros and cons. Like I weighed them almost equally, right? So, for me it's a coin flip and I was literally going to flip a coin. Should we do >> right now? Do it. I actually have a coin in my purse. >> I didn't actually expect this coin to flip. >> Android. >> Now we have to decide. Is it is heads What's heads? What's tails? >> I don't know. You tell me. >> All right. Heads is Android. >> Okay. >> Heads. >> She's going back to Android, which means you have to go through the pain of switching again. >> Maybe you'll rate it better this time. I don't know. Maybe. Maybe. >> That's so funny. All right. Well, Justin, you're the iPhone's last hope. Are you wanting to permanently switch to iPhone? >> I'm going to switch. >> There you go. Wow. You know what's funny is the predictions were Lionus was like, \"No, Justin will definitely not switch.\" And said no to Avon as well because of business calendar, but you left it up to random chance. And he thought if anyone was going to switch, it was going to be you and you didn't switch. So, that's a very, very, very funny final conclusion, but thank you guys for trying iPhone for a month. >> Oh, thank you. >> Thanks.
