00:00:01,920 --> 00:00:07,919
When I switched to the iPhone 16 for a month, I found plenty of things that I

2
00:00:05,839 --> 00:00:12,160
loved about the experience. The screen, the notification handling, even the

3
00:00:09,679 --> 00:00:17,680
multi-app widgets. However, I didn't have the it just works experience

4
00:00:14,960 --> 00:00:24,119
either. So, was the buggess and unintuitiveness a one-off for me? To

5
00:00:20,160 --> 00:00:24,119
find out, I volunteers,

6
00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:32,399
including my wife, to give the walled garden a shot. They got a $1,400 budget

7
00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:36,559
to buy whatever iPhone they want along with any eye accessories they could

8
00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:41,360
still afford and set them loose for a month to see if any of them would be

9
00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:45,040
tempted by the delightful apples that

10
00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:47,760
Tim has cooked up. And by goodness, did

11
00:00:45,040 --> 00:00:50,079
they ever have some feedback. Oh. Oh, finally.

12
00:00:48,559 --> 00:00:55,280
>> Sorry, I didn't see it ringing, sir. >> Don't call me sir. So, how's it going

13
00:00:53,120 --> 00:01:00,559
with our guinea pigs? Are they clamoring for their androids back yet? Actually,

14
00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:04,320
no. I think all three are strongly considering switching to iPhone.

15
00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:09,600
>> What? I cannot believe I'm not here to hear

16
00:01:06,479 --> 00:01:12,240
about this in person again.

17
00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:15,760
>> Go talk to them. Find out every detail. >> Well, you heard the man. Tell me

18
00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:22,880
everything. >> Oh, sorry. >> One more thing. Get it? Cuz Apple

19
00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:27,040
Dbrand, >> specifically their Ghost 2 case and

20
00:01:25,119 --> 00:01:30,640
Prism screen protector. The case is designed to offer amazing drop

21
00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:34,240
protection while still being stylish and see-through, letting your Dbrand skin

22
00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:38,560
shine. And their Prism screen protector is also designed to be see-through so

23
00:01:36,159 --> 00:01:41,920
that you can see your screen. And it protects your phone in case of any bumps

24
00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:45,920
or bruises. Check them out by heading to I am very short.com, which by the way, I

25
00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:50,320
don't even think it's that true. See, look. I can reach these black Hawthorne

26
00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:55,240
berries almost. Ow. The blackberries are attacking me. Ow. Ow. My shins.

27
00:02:00,399 --> 00:02:05,200
Every phone upgrade starts with the same thing, which is switching to a new

28
00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:09,440
device. Whether you're going from iPhone to iPhone, Android to Android, or

29
00:02:07,119 --> 00:02:12,720
crossing the ecosystem. And based on my quick conversation that I had with you

30
00:02:10,879 --> 00:02:16,959
guys just a couple weeks ago, it seems that there was some struggles. Starting

31
00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:20,879
with Justin and Natalie, you guys had some issues with your old Apple ID

32
00:02:18,879 --> 00:02:25,360
accounts, either backing up some weird contacts on WhatsApp or you actually had

33
00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:29,599
to recover your account. Tell me about that process. >> That was interesting because it was from

34
00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:35,200
so long ago. I think the last time I used it was like 2014ish

35
00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:37,440
and it was linked to a really, really

36
00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:41,280
old phone number. So, I had to figure out what that phone number was to begin

37
00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:44,879
with, which was interesting. And I end up having to go through like multiple

38
00:02:42,879 --> 00:02:48,560
different contacts to figure out someone that had my old number.

39
00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:52,720
>> But were you able to recover it? >> Yes, I was able to recover it. So, luckily I didn't need access to the old

40
00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:57,200
number. I just needed the old number. But for weird whatever reason, they

41
00:02:55,120 --> 00:03:00,080
didn't explain. It took 2 weeks for them to give me an answer on whether or not

42
00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:03,120
they were going to give me access to my account again. Like I get it probably

43
00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:06,239
like for security reasons. They're probably like checking other avenues to

44
00:03:04,879 --> 00:03:09,519
make sure that like, you know, this account actually isn't in active use and

45
00:03:08,159 --> 00:03:13,760
this person's just trying to get into their old account. But eventually I was able to get back in. So,

46
00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:18,879
>> hey, at least you got it back. >> Yeah. >> And Natalie, you explained that it would seem to be backing up some old phone

47
00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:21,680
numbers on your WhatsApp and wasn't bringing in over enough people or

48
00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:27,440
whatever. Your contacts when you >> It was bringing over like old contacts from like I had the iPhone, iPod touch

49
00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:31,200
like over like 10 years ago. So, I had those contacts come in, but none of my

50
00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:34,799
actual contacts from my phone came in. >> Okay. I see. It's nice that Apple had

51
00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:37,920
all that information, but in your case, it was not helpful. That was a really

52
00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:42,319
loud ding. >> Yeah. How do you turn it off? Yeah, same problem.

53
00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:46,000
>> Turn. >> I actually don't have sound on mine. I

54
00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:48,319
think maybe I turned it off, but mine just vibrates, so I'm okay with that.

55
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:53,200
But >> we're going to get into the hardware later, but that's really funny that it

56
00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:57,040
interrupted us. Avon, how was your switch from Android to iPhone?

57
00:03:54,959 --> 00:04:00,159
>> It was so painful. So, when you said some struggles, I made a face cuz I was

58
00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:03,040
like, that was not some struggle. So, I was like, and now that I've heard your

59
00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:07,519
experience, I feel like yours was way worse. You couldn't even switch for 2 weeks. >> Oh, I just end up making a temporary

60
00:04:06,239 --> 00:04:10,959
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

61
00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:14,720
my normal fine. >> Okay. Well, it took me a couple days,

62
00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:19,199
too, but not because I couldn't recover my old um iPhone account. I had that.

63
00:04:17,280 --> 00:04:22,240
But the issue I had was I tried to use the iOS transfer

64
00:04:20,799 --> 00:04:25,759
>> between the two and it just wouldn't work. I I don't know why. >> Were you doing it like over cable or

65
00:04:25,280 --> 00:04:32,479
over the >> No, I was doing it over Wi-Fi. >> Okay. >> Yeah. Um because Well, I don't I don't

66
00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:34,960
know why I did that. I just didn't do >> it was an option that it gives you, so

67
00:04:33,840 --> 00:04:37,919
why wouldn't you try it? They just wasn't connecting to each other and I couldn't figure out which phone was the

68
00:04:37,280 --> 00:04:41,360
problem. >> Got it. So, did you end up doing the transfer or

69
00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:46,479
>> I just did it myself. >> Oh gosh, that must have been painful downloading all your apps and and

70
00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:50,240
everything else. Speaking of apps, was there any apps for you guys that either

71
00:04:48,479 --> 00:04:55,919
didn't work or didn't come over? >> WhatsApp. >> WhatsApp. >> I was so mad. I didn't do WhatsApp

72
00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:59,120
first. I did it at the end. And what I didn't realize was that you have to go

73
00:04:57,360 --> 00:05:01,919
through the I don't know what it's called, the iOS transfer process. And if

74
00:05:00,639 --> 00:05:05,919
you don't, your message history gets deleted. But I had set everything else

75
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:09,840
up and then I got to WhatsApp and it didn't prompt me and then the only way

76
00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:13,919
to do it is to reset your phone and reset it up again and I was like no.

77
00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:18,160
>> So you just process you don't want to do it again. >> Yes. And so I lost my entire WhatsApp

78
00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:22,080
history which sucked. >> Terrible. Did anybody else have any

79
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:26,800
other app issues or was that the easy part? >> WhatsApp for me as well as like I did

80
00:05:24,639 --> 00:05:30,080
the I think it was over Wi-Fi the iOS transfer the feature. I like oh this is

81
00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:35,199
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

82
00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:38,320
had to download manually through the app store to get the apps that were on my

83
00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:42,400
phone. >> Yeah, that's that was the same thing with the apps. Like I had to manually

84
00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:46,080
download them, but everything else transferred for me just fine. Like all

85
00:05:43,919 --> 00:05:49,039
my text messages came over fine. My contacts came over fine, but I did mine

86
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:53,199
through the cable. I didn't do the wireless transfer. >> Got it. Okay. Well,

87
00:05:51,039 --> 00:05:57,680
>> and then the other thing was with my WhatsApp. I have had that problem in my

88
00:05:54,800 --> 00:06:01,600
past going from Android to Android. So, I always back up my messages through

89
00:05:59,199 --> 00:06:04,319
WhatsApp first and then do the transfer and everything usually works out fine.

90
00:06:03,199 --> 00:06:08,400
In this case, I didn't have a problem because I backed it up before starting the transfer.

91
00:06:06,639 --> 00:06:10,960
>> Lionus mentioned in part one that you were going to have specific issues with

92
00:06:09,840 --> 00:06:18,160
one app. >> I think it was called business calendar. >> Yes. And it doesn't exist on the iPhone.

93
00:06:15,280 --> 00:06:21,120
So, I tried the Apple calendar app and then I tried the Google calendar app and

94
00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:24,720
I hated them all. >> Okay. And I brought my old phone so I

95
00:06:23,039 --> 00:06:28,479
could show why because nobody seems to understand me when I say that it's a

96
00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:31,360
problem. Okay. So, for example, when I want to look at my week and I want to

97
00:06:29,840 --> 00:06:35,039
see what I've got planned today, I click on this and immediately on the business

98
00:06:33,199 --> 00:06:38,000
calendar, you can see all of my things for the day. >> Got it.

99
00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:44,240
>> And it's sorted by all day events and time. In this one, it brought me to the

100
00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:45,840
actual day, like the single day. And all

101
00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:51,600
of the stuff that's all day is at the top. And then I have to scroll for the

102
00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:53,360
entire rest of the day. And if I need to

103
00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:57,280
go see another day now, I have to click on that back >> and go back. Whereas this, I can just

104
00:06:55,840 --> 00:07:00,800
keep going next and I can literally see my entire week all at once. And this I

105
00:06:59,280 --> 00:07:05,120
have to go through every single day, scroll up and down. If I miss scrolling

106
00:07:03,280 --> 00:07:08,319
far enough, then I miss >> something.

107
00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:10,960
I realize how annoying calendar apps and tell you I seen that one. That is so

108
00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:15,039
much better. >> Yeah. So, when I'm on the call or when I'm on the phone with the doctor's

109
00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:19,280
office trying to book an appointment, I'm like, "Oh, no. Monday doesn't work for me. How about this day or how about

110
00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:24,080
this day?" It's so easy. >> So much easier. >> During your month though, how much of a

111
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:26,960
pain was that process? because I think Lina said that was going to be a deal

112
00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:30,960
breaker for you possibly. But >> yes, so it did waste a ton of time. I

113
00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:35,680
ended up using my computer a lot to reschedu things, which isn't the most

114
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:40,479
convenient, but there were other positive things about the iPhone that

115
00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:44,479
was time savers that it kind of made it feel like a wash at the end of the day.

116
00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:48,639
>> Got it. Was there any other parts of the setup? That's a really loud ding again.

117
00:07:46,479 --> 00:07:53,360
My goodness. Was there any other parts of the setup that was either a pro or a

118
00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:56,479
con from any of you? the setup for me because I had to download all these apps

119
00:07:54,800 --> 00:08:00,800
and I had to reorganize it. I was trying to mirror what my my phone was with how

120
00:07:59,599 --> 00:08:04,960
everything was organized. >> So like your widgets or Okay.

121
00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:07,680
>> Having to manually add them all back into a specific folder. That took so

122
00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:13,759
long. >> Got it. Okay. >> I can't just add apps from a list. I

123
00:08:11,759 --> 00:08:17,680
have to drag them all into the bubble >> one by one into >> It was so annoying.

124
00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:20,960
>> You're nodding your head in agreement. So Okay.

125
00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:23,919
I think that's the most painful thing for a lot of people whenever they go to

126
00:08:22,479 --> 00:08:28,160
a new phone. I mean, a lot of people will boast how great iPhone is because

127
00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:31,199
you can just do iCloud accounts and it basically mirrors it over. And I think

128
00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:36,159
Android's a lot of the same if you go from like Samsung to Samsung. But I want

129
00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:39,599
to rate it out of 10. Five is it was I don't know, middle of the road, average,

130
00:08:37,680 --> 00:08:43,839
about as normal as any other transfer. 10 is it was so much better. One, it was

131
00:08:42,399 --> 00:08:46,800
terrible. Where would you guys rate this? >> One.

132
00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:52,080
>> Damn. >> I'm going to say one. >> All right. Hey, at least it's honest.

133
00:08:49,680 --> 00:08:54,959
I'm going to say one. Wow. Wow. Much harsher than our like iPhone users last

134
00:08:54,399 --> 00:09:00,240
time. >> I think I go a little bit higher than that. I'd say a five, but I kind of was

135
00:08:58,959 --> 00:09:04,480
expecting half of these things to come up. >> I do want to talk about the hardware

136
00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:08,560
next. Both the iPhone and all of you got a watch as well. What were some of the

137
00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:12,080
pros of like the physical device, whether it's the screen, the battery?

138
00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:18,560
We'll start with Natalie here. >> Battery was really good for both the watch and the phone. Um the screen is

139
00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:20,959
great for both. Yeah, I think overall like positive experience like refresh

140
00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:24,480
rate was good. >> Yeah, I had all had a pro. So, you had

141
00:09:23,279 --> 00:09:28,080
120 Hz refresh rate. >> The speakers were nice. Like the audio

142
00:09:26,399 --> 00:09:30,640
wise like just playing music if I don't have a boothy speaker around. I play

143
00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:35,040
that. It's actually pretty good. >> Nice. Okay, I'm on. >> Yeah, I had the same experience as

144
00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:38,399
Natalie with the phone. I actually didn't like my watch very much. I found

145
00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:42,640
it wasn't working. Like I would be literally in the middle of playing badminton and it would be like please

146
00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:47,200
stand up now or like please get exercise. It's like okay. Like if the

147
00:09:45,839 --> 00:09:51,760
whole point of all this is to be able to, you know, check my stats, well, I

148
00:09:49,519 --> 00:09:54,320
can't really rely on it. And for battery life, I don't know about yours, but mine

149
00:09:53,040 --> 00:10:00,320
lasted a day and a half, but that's really inconvenient because halfway through the next day, it dies. And so I

150
00:09:57,839 --> 00:10:03,040
have either half a day of not being able to use my watch or I charge it at night

151
00:10:01,680 --> 00:10:07,519
and then it doesn't monitor the sleep or do any of these other things. >> Yeah, that's interesting. I I had never

152
00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:13,519
thought of it from that perspective. Almost half a day is worse than if it just did one day cuz you had know you

153
00:10:11,279 --> 00:10:16,800
can consistently charge it. Justin, what were some pros for Uh yeah, the screen

154
00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:20,399
was definitely a massive upside and the fact that it's smaller than my other

155
00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:24,160
phone, which I don't have for comparison here, but yeah, fits in my pocket a lot

156
00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:26,880
better. I noticed I was dropping it a lot less, which was great.

157
00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:31,519
>> Do you think it's cuz of the size? >> Yes, 100%. And the weight.

158
00:10:28,959 --> 00:10:34,800
>> I 100% agree with you. I did not realize it, but that was one of the things I

159
00:10:32,959 --> 00:10:38,240
wanted to experiment with, and it it's true. >> Well, even if you did drop it,

160
00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:41,760
thankfully Dbrand sent over those cases. >> Oh, yeah. No, they did great. >> These are awesome.

161
00:10:39,680 --> 00:10:44,720
>> I dropped mine probably the same amount as I dropped my other phone. I actually

162
00:10:43,519 --> 00:10:49,680
cracked the screen protector. >> Yeah, I cracked mine, too. I replaced mine before the shoot.

163
00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:52,959
>> Okay. It didn't damage the phone, though, right? >> The phone is fine. It's just a screen protector that crack.

164
00:10:51,839 --> 00:10:58,480
>> Yeah, savior. We're good. >> Thanks, Dbrand. >> I think I tovon's point with the watch

165
00:10:56,800 --> 00:11:01,680
better cuz I charge mine overnight. I don't monitor my sleep and that's why I

166
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:05,279
was able to like have a full day with no problem. >> Yeah, that was the same too. Like every

167
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:08,880
night I just put my phone and the watch on the charger and wake up. They're both good to go kind of thing.

168
00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:12,640
>> Yeah, I see. Like if you need to monitor your sleep and use it during the day, I guess that is

169
00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:15,839
>> I was just trying to use the different features. I was >> It's built in, so you might as well at

170
00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:19,920
least give it a try, right? >> Oh, I immediately shut it off. >> Oh, you didn't want it to track your

171
00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:24,560
sleep? >> Uh or any of the fitness stuff? It was the notifications were driving me

172
00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:28,320
absolutely bonkers. >> Oh, interesting. Okay. Was there any other notification issues with the watch

173
00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:33,279
or the phone? >> All the notifications worked and that was part of the problem. Well, what I

174
00:11:31,279 --> 00:11:36,399
was going to say was um when you do put them on a charger though, if you pick up

175
00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:40,399
your phone first and you start swiping things away, well, when you pick up your watch after, all of those same

176
00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:44,240
notifications come back. >> Like when you swipe it away on your phone and it's still Yeah. Okay, that is

177
00:11:43,680 --> 00:11:48,640
true. I think >> so. You had that issue, too. >> Yeah. So, it's annoying. It just felt

178
00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:51,120
like duplicating. So, half the time I didn't even take my watch in the morning.

179
00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:55,600
>> Another piece of hardware that I think all of you brought up was the camera and

180
00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:58,800
I think overall it was very positive. Avon, you actually mentioned you really

181
00:11:56,959 --> 00:12:02,399
like the uh the live videos. >> I do. I had never experienced that

182
00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:05,920
before, but when I'm taking shots, like especially action shots, it was just so

183
00:12:04,079 --> 00:12:10,000
nice to capture that little moment and like my son was playing baseball and I

184
00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:12,800
was able to get like him actually swinging the ball, which was so cool.

185
00:12:11,519 --> 00:12:17,519
>> I do actually really like that feature from iPhone. I remember when it was announced, a lot of Android users did

186
00:12:15,680 --> 00:12:20,240
criticize it as almost pointless and seems weird, but it almost feels like

187
00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:24,320
just a little moment in time that you get to rewatch again, right? >> Okay. My question though is how do you

188
00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:28,160
watch it on the computer? because I downloaded all my photos and it just

189
00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:32,800
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

190
00:12:32,399 --> 00:12:38,079
that? >> I'll throw the instructions on screen because I don't know off the top of my

191
00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:42,639
head and that's a good thing cuz I just said send me the video for the edits and

192
00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:45,920
I hope I can include it now. >> I will say doesn't Android also have

193
00:12:44,560 --> 00:12:49,440
that feature? At least the Samsung like you can turn on the Pixel have that too.

194
00:12:48,399 --> 00:12:55,519
You just have to turn it on. >> There is now a feature with it. I believe it was iPhone first. I can be

195
00:12:53,279 --> 00:12:59,440
corrected if I'm wrong, but it is now a thing. And as the industry does, when

196
00:12:57,600 --> 00:13:01,839
iPhone does something, Android moves towards it. Like no headphones,

197
00:13:00,639 --> 00:13:06,800
>> the other way around, you know, sometimes. But >> that's true. Is there anything that was

198
00:13:05,279 --> 00:13:10,800
on your Android phone from a feature-wise hardware that you kind of

199
00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:12,959
missed on your iPhone, whether it's the placement of the buttons or the power

200
00:13:12,639 --> 00:13:18,160
button? >> I missed the back button. >> Yep. Back button. >> Got it.

201
00:13:15,680 --> 00:13:21,040
>> Ah, cuz it felt like the back button was always moving depending on which app I

202
00:13:19,680 --> 00:13:23,760
was in, >> which sucks. I like it just always being

203
00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:28,959
in the same spot. >> So, you use the three buttons instead of gestures. Did any of you guys try

204
00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:32,320
gestures on the iPhone? Whether it's >> Well, I I did use gestures, too. Okay.

205
00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:35,360
>> It just wasn't as convenient sometimes. >> Got it. You like that always in the same

206
00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:40,160
spot. You know where to hit it kind of thing. >> Yeah. >> One other hardware thing was I kind of

207
00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:43,120
joked about lack of headphone jack or whatever. Justin, you actually mentioned

208
00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:48,480
you really like the Bluetooth. For some reason, the Bluetooth was just like blackmagic for you.

209
00:13:45,839 --> 00:13:51,440
>> Yeah. I have no idea how it was that good cuz I got the Beats Buds. I think

210
00:13:51,040 --> 00:13:56,959
they were. >> Yeah, that was part of your purchase. >> Yeah. And I was able to put my phone

211
00:13:54,639 --> 00:14:02,079
down at my desk and go walk clear across the warehouse, walk outside, and the

212
00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:04,959
audio didn't cut out whatsoever. It was actually crazy.

213
00:14:03,199 --> 00:14:08,320
>> Well, there you go. That's definitely a positive. Is there any other final

214
00:14:06,399 --> 00:14:10,639
comments or cons that you want to come up with for the hardware of either

215
00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:16,160
device? >> I don't like the camera button. >> You don't like the camera button

216
00:14:13,760 --> 00:14:19,440
>> to open the app? Sure is convenient, but I've never I've tried it once to

217
00:14:18,079 --> 00:14:23,519
actually take a picture, but because of the actuation,

218
00:14:21,279 --> 00:14:26,720
>> it just it just ruins. >> Got it. Did any of you guys get to try

219
00:14:24,959 --> 00:14:30,480
the shutter button and use it? >> Yes. Um, I didn't mind it. Uh, I found

220
00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:34,480
the touch was a little bit hard to get used to. I don't know how much that was

221
00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:37,680
because of the Dbrand case, but they claimed that it's compatible with it, so

222
00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:42,800
I'm assuming it would be the same whether or not >> it was like that. But with that being

223
00:14:39,839 --> 00:14:47,760
said, the telephoto lens on that camera was actually crazy. You see, I was out

224
00:14:45,519 --> 00:14:50,160
in the mountains out in Hope there. But you see that little spot there?

225
00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:56,399
>> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> That's zoomed in with the telephoto lens.

226
00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:58,639
>> So, that was really cool to be able to shoot like really far off into a

227
00:14:57,760 --> 00:15:04,480
distance like that. >> Yeah. >> So, I was really annoyed by it because

228
00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:05,519
you double click to open um what's it

229
00:15:04,480 --> 00:15:09,120
called? What is this thing called? >> Apple Pay. >> Apple Pay. Thank you. But then when you

230
00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:13,360
double click the camera, you accidentally take a photo. >> Oh, I see. So, even the amount of times

231
00:15:12,079 --> 00:15:15,920
you probably accidentally like took a photo of your desk or something.

232
00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:22,560
>> My shoes. Yeah. >> Yeah. >> Awesome. Okay. So, we're going to rate it again out of 10. Five is the hardware

233
00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:26,240
is on par with your Android. 10 is it's much better. One is it's much worse.

234
00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:30,160
Where does the scale lie? >> I would say seven.

235
00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:33,760
>> Seven. Cuz you enjoyed it overall more than your Android.

236
00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:38,000
>> Um, I would say about a 6 and a half. >> Okay. A little bit more. Eight. Wow. The

237
00:15:36,399 --> 00:15:42,320
highest score so far again. Okay. We're going to get into the iOS and the

238
00:15:39,680 --> 00:15:47,519
software side of things for both the watch and the iPhone. Was there any

239
00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:51,120
immediate pros and cons when you started using iOS 18?

240
00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:55,759
>> Oh, I loved Face ID. >> Face ID. Yeah. So fast. I love it.

241
00:15:54,160 --> 00:16:01,360
>> Just for unlocking the phone when you first pick it up or whatever. >> Or for apps like um banking apps or just

242
00:15:59,759 --> 00:16:04,480
whatever. Just general login. It was so nice. >> Got it. And you you're nodding

243
00:16:02,880 --> 00:16:07,360
agreement. Face ID as well. >> Yeah, pretty fast. >> That's great. Is there anything else

244
00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:13,360
that stands out? >> Um, the other thing that I really found better was the voice to text. It was so

245
00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:16,160
much more accurate and even when I was saying things and it was getting it

246
00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:21,680
wrong at the beginning, based on the rest of the sentence, it was correcting it after the fact, which was so nice.

247
00:16:19,199 --> 00:16:25,440
>> Oh, that's nice. Kind of adjust it. >> I was able to actually use it, which is

248
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:30,480
really different than here. Like I just gave up using it on here. >> The watch app integration was a lot

249
00:16:28,959 --> 00:16:34,800
better than on the Android side. Okay. >> So, for getting in and out of the building using the ubiquity app, there

250
00:16:33,199 --> 00:16:37,199
wasn't a Ubiquity app on the Android side. So now I can actually get in and

251
00:16:36,240 --> 00:16:41,440
out of the building using the watch, which is so much more convenient, especially

252
00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:44,639
>> on the Android watch side is what you're talking about. Okay. Okay. So you had it

253
00:16:42,959 --> 00:16:47,519
on your iPhone watch. Perfect. You mentioned uh speech to text. Did any of

254
00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:54,560
you guys have any issues with the keyboard? Cuz I know some people don't like the keyboard. Everyone's

255
00:16:52,160 --> 00:16:57,839
unanimous agreement here. You seem the most passionate. We'll start with

256
00:16:55,680 --> 00:17:01,680
Justin. I get why they did it because of the rounded corners at the bottom, but

257
00:16:59,839 --> 00:17:05,520
my finger placement is always wrong cuz I always want to be towards the bottom

258
00:17:03,040 --> 00:17:09,679
cuz I'm used to a square phone and I always type off the screen or I hit like

259
00:17:08,079 --> 00:17:14,480
the period button when I don't want to or I accidentally hit the space bar and

260
00:17:11,600 --> 00:17:17,280
my sentences look all stupid. >> You're nodding in agreement. Did you

261
00:17:16,079 --> 00:17:21,919
struggle with the same thing? >> Yeah, pretty much. And then I'm sure if you bring up my text history with

262
00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:27,439
anybody, you'll see there's always a space before exclamation marks or question marks or anything like that.

263
00:17:25,839 --> 00:17:31,200
cuz you're just so used to double space for the period, but then you forget for

264
00:17:29,679 --> 00:17:37,280
all the other things. Yeah. >> The keyboard for me, so I have numbers

265
00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:39,679
on the top of the row with the letters >> on your Samsung.

266
00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:43,039
>> Yeah, on the Samsung. So if I needed to type letter numbers, it's so convenient.

267
00:17:41,919 --> 00:17:47,360
It's right there, but I have to switch it every time. So that was my

268
00:17:45,679 --> 00:17:51,280
>> When you're in accounting, that is a huge thing. >> Yeah, you're dealing with numbers as a

269
00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:57,840
job. So >> the camera, I know I talked to you about this before. It doesn't remember the

270
00:17:56,000 --> 00:18:03,440
setting that I had it in. So if I wanted to take a photo in like 16 by9, I had to

271
00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:05,200
always go change it to 16 by9. It was

272
00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:08,160
always defaulting to 4x3. Even though we changed the setting, it doesn't it

273
00:18:06,559 --> 00:18:12,160
actually remembers which mode I was in. So video or photo or portrait. That's

274
00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:15,600
what that setting was for. >> So you felt like you had to manually adjust your camera every time you wanted

275
00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:19,600
to take a photo. >> That was very annoying. >> I have that problem with my car. It

276
00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:23,679
starts at the beginning at the beginning of my playlist every single time.

277
00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:26,960
>> Really? When with the Apple CarPlay? Yeah, >> such a weird niche bug that I wouldn't

278
00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:30,320
have Maybe it's a feature. Maybe it wants you to start the playlist over.

279
00:18:28,960 --> 00:18:34,960
>> I don't know, but I'm sick of Hamilton at this point.

280
00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:39,200
>> And I loved that. So, that sucks. >> Now, one thing that was a nice thing

281
00:18:37,360 --> 00:18:43,120
that has changed over the years is the customization. I was able to download

282
00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:46,640
Google Keyboard and use that instead, which was slightly better, but still had

283
00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:48,720
the same issue of the positioning. >> Did you guys download any sort of custom

284
00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:53,280
keyboard or >> No, I downloaded Swift Key, which is what I usually use on Android, but I

285
00:18:51,840 --> 00:18:56,240
don't remember why. I just gave up partway through. I'm sorry.

286
00:18:55,280 --> 00:19:01,039
>> 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.

287
00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:05,200
>> And that's all I can ask for for this month was that you guys tried to commit

288
00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:09,280
to using the iPhone. Was there any other pros or cons that you guys found with

289
00:19:07,360 --> 00:19:13,280
the iOS experience in general? iPhone users always talk about how amazing it

290
00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:17,039
is to AirDrop or transfer files or anything. Did you guys get to try that

291
00:19:15,280 --> 00:19:20,480
at all? Cuz you have a MacBook at home, right? Yeah, I did end up trying some of

292
00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:23,679
the features out just to see what they do because like I don't use my MacBook a

293
00:19:21,919 --> 00:19:27,200
whole lot, but I figured just for this I would try it. And yeah, like the AirDrop

294
00:19:25,600 --> 00:19:30,559
stuff, everything worked fine. Tried cop copying over photos, couple videos,

295
00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:34,720
stuff like that. But yeah, everything seemed to work just fine. >> Did you guys get to try anything? Cuz we

296
00:19:33,520 --> 00:19:39,919
didn't really have like a MacBook to test with, for example. So, >> no. Um, and I think that was part of my

297
00:19:38,240 --> 00:19:43,120
problem is that I don't know very many people in the Apple ecosystem, so I

298
00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:46,960
didn't actually get to benefit from that. >> Yeah. Cuz one of the things you

299
00:19:45,120 --> 00:19:50,640
discovered in part one was if you brought the two iPhones close together,

300
00:19:48,559 --> 00:19:54,240
you can actually like transfer contacts between each other and I guess no one

301
00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:57,520
got to experiment with that. >> Um, no, not with that, but FaceTime is

302
00:19:56,240 --> 00:20:01,360
pretty sweet being able to FaceTime with my sister and my niece and nephew and stuff like that. So that that was cool

303
00:19:59,919 --> 00:20:05,200
>> cuz they all had iPhones and whatever. Yeah. Did you guys get to try a FaceTimed at all?

304
00:20:03,280 --> 00:20:08,880
>> No, because the same thing Apple uh Apple ecosystem. If I don't have other

305
00:20:07,120 --> 00:20:12,720
people on it, then I can't try it. >> It does seem like a limiting factor. I

306
00:20:10,799 --> 00:20:17,200
think I actually have like majority of my friends have iPhone but I I don't use

307
00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:21,280
the airdrop cuz we have a WhatsApp group so it's we already have a system in

308
00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:24,320
place right so I didn't have to yeah I didn't have to like FaceTime just use

309
00:20:23,360 --> 00:20:28,159
WhatsApp call right >> if anybody else has any final comments though whether it what what would it be

310
00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:34,320
about >> I tried out the public beta of iOS 26 >> I didn't ask that because I didn't think

311
00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:37,440
anyone was going to try iOS 26 >> I did it on I updated on Thursday

312
00:20:36,159 --> 00:20:41,600
>> okay what are your thoughts >> uh so far so good it because it's a beta

313
00:20:39,919 --> 00:20:45,120
it is lacking like the, you know, the Apple polish. Everything works super

314
00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:48,240
smooth, but I do really like the look of it. It does look much nicer.

315
00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:51,200
>> 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

316
00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:54,559
actually. >> Someone who liked liquid glass. >> Yeah. So, it's all like transparent and

317
00:20:54,000 --> 00:21:00,480
stuff like that now. >> See, you could do that with your Android. >> Yeah, you could

318
00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:03,440
a long time ago. >> Dynamic Island. I don't get the point of

319
00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:06,480
it. >> Oh, >> I don't like it. >> You put a pet on it though. You said it

320
00:21:06,159 --> 00:21:12,559
was >> I don't really see a much use of it. Like if they put notification icons

321
00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:15,360
there, sure. But it's just a black notch there that I don't really see.

322
00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:20,000
>> But you can like click into it and like do a bunch of customization stuff. Did you get to try that?

323
00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:24,720
>> No. Like I click it and it doesn't do anything. But >> it's supposed to like open and show you

324
00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:29,840
your music that's playing or >> Well, I can swipe down. That happens.

325
00:21:26,559 --> 00:21:31,679
>> I do agree. It is quite an ugly eyesore.

326
00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:35,360
It's quite large on the phone screen. Did you guys have any other issues or

327
00:21:33,360 --> 00:21:38,400
experiences with dynamic island? Um, I was actually trying to do what Natalie

328
00:21:36,480 --> 00:21:42,000
was doing and do like a little dumb pet thing. There was like a little Pokemon

329
00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:46,880
one or whatever, but like 90% of the apps seemed like scams.

330
00:21:45,360 --> 00:21:50,320
>> Oh, speaking of apps, when you guys downloaded things from the app store, did you notice you can't sort by rating

331
00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:53,280
when you're just searching for something? >> I never sorted.

332
00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:58,320
>> Oh, >> you can't sort by rating. >> No. Is that a me thing or is that an

333
00:21:56,640 --> 00:22:02,080
>> I think that's a fair thing. If you're looking for a specific type of app, you

334
00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:05,440
want to search by rating. What was an example? Um I I wanted to download

335
00:22:03,679 --> 00:22:07,280
Suduku and I didn't have one already. So I was trying to find the best one.

336
00:22:06,960 --> 00:22:11,840
>> Okay. >> Yeah. >> Did it give you like most downloads? Did it give you high like what was the

337
00:22:11,520 --> 00:22:17,360
order? >> I don't remember. Okay. Let's let me see. >> Speaking of downloading apps, I found it

338
00:22:16,159 --> 00:22:21,760
annoying where you have to double click the home button just to download the app.

339
00:22:19,919 --> 00:22:26,000
>> You can't just click get and it will download. >> That was one. >> It's not paid. It's a free app. So why

340
00:22:24,640 --> 00:22:30,559
do I have to confirm with my face? Right. >> Got it. That was kind of thing that kind

341
00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:33,840
of annoyed me with the um Apple Pay is you'd put it near it and then be like

342
00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:39,360
double click to confirm pay and then you have to like look over and get the P sign to work. Yeah.

343
00:22:37,919 --> 00:22:45,280
>> Okay. No, it's not sorted by most downloaded. So there's one that has

344
00:22:41,760 --> 00:22:45,600
246,000 then 27 then 89.

345
00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:48,960
>> Okay. >> Then 504 then 7.7. It's all over the

346
00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:54,480
place. >> But you can't change the sorting to be by no >> highest rated. iPhone's telling you

347
00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:57,280
which one to download. The one at the bottom >> pretty much. But the one at the top is

348
00:22:56,080 --> 00:23:01,200
an ad supported one. >> Oh, there you go. >> Well, that's why they're that's that's

349
00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:07,360
why they're telling you to download that one. >> The multitasking window, the fact that

350
00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:09,200
there's no close all button, stupid.

351
00:23:07,360 --> 00:23:12,720
>> And so, like I went to try and find like another see if there was a solution for

352
00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:17,440
that. And most of the Reddit comments range from you're stupid. You don't know

353
00:23:14,799 --> 00:23:19,600
what you need for your phone to too bad, so sad.

354
00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:22,559
>> Just the small things. But it's like the small things get to you that it affects

355
00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:27,360
your >> Mhm. I guess that's a good question to

356
00:23:25,039 --> 00:23:32,799
ask. Then overall, how would you guys compare iPhone ecosystem or the iOS

357
00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:36,400
experience to Android? We'll use our same scale. Five is the exact same. 10

358
00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:40,159
is it's better, one is it's worse. >> Three. >> Three. So, just a little bit worse.

359
00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:46,159
>> Actually, I'll bring it down to two. >> Okay. >> Quite a bit more worse.

360
00:23:43,360 --> 00:23:46,880
>> Um, I'd probably say a five and a half. >> Okay.

361
00:23:46,559 --> 00:23:52,480
>> Yeah. >> So, overall, you think iOS was just a touch better?

362
00:23:50,240 --> 00:23:57,440
>> Yeah. But I also noticed that the week that I switched, um, my Android got an

363
00:23:55,440 --> 00:24:00,000
update that mimicked some of the same gestures and things like that that the

364
00:23:58,799 --> 00:24:03,919
iPhone did. >> So, I don't know. For me, the biggest

365
00:24:02,159 --> 00:24:06,159
factor was Face ID. That really was It saved so much time. That's what put it

366
00:24:05,679 --> 00:24:11,600
over. >> Did it make up the time for business calendar? >> It did.

367
00:24:09,120 --> 00:24:14,400
>> Wow. That's very interesting. Okay, Justin, your rating.

368
00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:17,679
>> Yeah, just like as a complete ecosystem together with the watch, the headphones

369
00:24:15,760 --> 00:24:22,720
that I got, everything say probably about 7 half, eight. Honestly, I got it.

370
00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:26,480
All worked really well for me. I didn't have too many issues this whole time.

371
00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:30,000
>> There you go. That's fantastic. The overall final learnable lesson, just

372
00:24:28,159 --> 00:24:33,440
like our iPhone users when they tried Android, was it's not the end of the

373
00:24:31,679 --> 00:24:38,159
world to switch. It's just kind of a pain in the butt to switch and then over

374
00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:41,840
time you either get used to it or it's a one-time pain because you have to

375
00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:45,840
redownload stuff. Is that a fair kind of comment to make? Just like last time,

376
00:24:43,919 --> 00:24:51,200
Lionus had an offer. He offered our iPhone users to permanently switch to

377
00:24:47,919 --> 00:24:52,559
Android if they give up their iPhone.

378
00:24:51,200 --> 00:24:57,200
I'm going to give you guys the same offer. You're no longer allowed to use

379
00:24:54,640 --> 00:25:01,360
your Android, but you can keep your watch and your iPhone. Are you guys on

380
00:24:59,919 --> 00:25:04,640
board with that, or do you really want to go back to Android?

381
00:25:03,360 --> 00:25:08,320
>> I'm going back to my Android. >> You're going back to Android? Really?

382
00:25:06,960 --> 00:25:12,000
That's so interesting cuz when we did our one-on-one like a week and a half

383
00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:15,840
ago, you were pretty on the fence about it. So, >> if I were to say yes right now, it's

384
00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:20,559
because it's a newer phone and not because it's iPhone necessarily. I would

385
00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:25,200
I'm still team Android after the 30 days here. So, >> I think that's a fair comparison. Avon,

386
00:25:23,600 --> 00:25:31,120
>> for me, the biggest pain is the switching and to have to switch back and

387
00:25:28,799 --> 00:25:34,720
like I really don't want to. And the dayto-day like there's pros and cons.

388
00:25:32,880 --> 00:25:39,120
Like I weighed them almost equally, right? So, for me it's a coin flip and I

389
00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:44,799
was literally going to flip a coin. Should we do >> right now? Do it.

390
00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:47,039
I actually have a coin in my purse. >> I didn't actually expect this coin to

391
00:25:46,320 --> 00:25:50,799
flip. >> Android. >> Now we have to decide. Is it is heads

392
00:25:49,919 --> 00:25:57,360
What's heads? What's tails? >> I don't know. You tell me. >> All right. Heads is Android.

393
00:25:55,520 --> 00:26:01,600
>> Okay. >> Heads. >> She's going back to Android, which means

394
00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:06,000
you have to go through the pain of switching again. >> Maybe you'll rate it better this time. I

395
00:26:04,799 --> 00:26:11,200
don't know. Maybe. Maybe. >> That's so funny. All right. Well, Justin, you're the iPhone's last hope.

396
00:26:09,679 --> 00:26:17,120
Are you wanting to permanently switch to iPhone? >> I'm going to switch. >> There you go. Wow. You know what's funny

397
00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:22,720
is the predictions were Lionus was like, "No, Justin will definitely not switch."

398
00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:27,039
And said no to Avon as well because of business calendar, but you left it up to

399
00:26:24,559 --> 00:26:31,279
random chance. And he thought if anyone was going to switch, it was going to be

400
00:26:28,400 --> 00:26:34,880
you and you didn't switch. So, that's a very, very, very funny final conclusion,

401
00:26:33,440 --> 00:26:39,520
but thank you guys for trying iPhone for a month. >> Oh, thank you. >> Thanks. I think Lionus is going to be a

402
00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:43,279
bit shocked with how our final results ended up turning out, considering how

403
00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:46,559
much of a poor experience he had when he switched to the iPhone. But just because

404
00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:51,600
he didn't enjoy it doesn't mean he shouldn't protect his phone. And thanks to Dbrand and their Ghost case, you too

405
00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:55,200
can get up to 12 ft of drop protection with their slim design and 100%

406
00:26:53,679 --> 00:26:58,240
guarantee that it will never turn yellow. They're so confident in that

407
00:26:56,720 --> 00:27:01,440
that they think you will die before that ever happens. And if you want a little

408
00:26:59,760 --> 00:27:05,760
bit more protection, be sure to pick up their idiot proof Prism 2 screen

409
00:27:03,760 --> 00:27:09,520
protector and finish off your phone with a custom skin as well. Avon, they

410
00:27:08,080 --> 00:27:15,520
actually have a new URL. Can you tell the people what it is? >> My husband is very short.com.

411
00:27:13,840 --> 00:27:18,720
>> If you guys enjoyed this video, go check out part one where these guys actually

412
00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:22,640
got to shop for which iPhone they were going to pick. Or you can go back a

413
00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:26,720
couple months when we asked iPhone users to try Android. That was also a two-part
