Why are you ignoring iPhone and IOS issues? Like Apple Intelligence? It does work as advertised and and still hasn't rolled out in all regions months after the iphone 16 was released.

Because Apple Intelligence is not a must, we can just turn on a ChatGPT app to solve it, of course the iPhone would be even more expensive if this Apple Intelligence doesn’t work at all. Taking photo cannot be solved by downloading an app.

Completely different metrics. Samsung isn’t a phone company. It’s an electronics, chip manufacturing, display manufacturing, and etc. They even sell household appliances like refrigerators. So not the same thing. I have an iPhone, a Google, and a Nothing. I love the Samsung Ultra. It just is so much nicer looking than the iPhone in every way. Fake camera rings or not. Apple has plenty of fake marketing crap in their products, and you want to ignore all of that. The iPhones are the most profitable phones overall, but even then, they’re becoming less and less dependable revenue source for AAPL, as all their growth has come from services for years now. In my book, Amazon, Google and Microsoft destroy Apple in services.

Apple has a lot of products too
 
I had a look of the photo thread over here and can tell most of you are nice people. I did play the s24 plus in store and the screen is very nice and big comparing to my old pro iPhone. Just the camera part seem like a backward move. The price is just around a 16e over here while buying a new pro is double of it.

Apple is so far behind in AI they will never catch up. They advertised iPhone 16 was built from the ground up with Apple Intelligence. Then none of it works lol. Then Samsung can update camera with a software update. I have the S25 Ultra and it does not have shutter lag like you describe.

Scamsung has been going downhill for a while now. Their stock has been plummeting and they’re cutting corners anywhere they can in order to make up for it. Why anyone that still buys these second rate phones is beyond me. There are way better Android phones.

In last article
S24 ultra 350ms delay


S24 ultra 150ms improvement, still 200ms, 1/5 of a second delay

If you play online game like LOL or CSGO, 200ms is super laggy, cannot play at all, while Pxiel is 0ms delay then you can play like god
Even if two players have same level of game skill
That is how much difference even after improvement
I think Samsung doesn’t really try to improve it in photo AI, just the cpu is much faster now then the lag is smaller.

I agree. They cut a lot in s24 ultra, look like that is all they did for a year. For a almost $1500 phone, just use glue for camera rings

IMO if you go off a phones build after watching those types of YT feeds where folk actively look to damage it; you need your bumps reading!

I've never ones damaged any of my phones (screes, exterior, camera lenses etc) because I always keep them protected with screen protectors and cases

If you want to ride your phone naked and run the risk of it getting damaged; you make your bed/you lie in it!

The camera tech on the S25U is excellent also; I've taken pics of our kitten Lily running riot and none of them have been blurred....

Glues would just lose its function after awhile no matter how careful you are

Samsung is not only phones, the world is getting tired from obsolescent fridges and IoT connected knicknacks

Finally would just almost all call ChatGPT within the iPhone, Apple doesn’t need to do much

Why won't you answer the question? Do you have touch issues with your iPhone?
People on MacRumors and others report issues....

 
I don’t think any manufacturer these days have much of an advantage over another in any meaningful way. Phones are more similar than ever and differences are marginal.

The only reason I personally stay with the iPhone is because I like its integration with my iPad and Mac. The latter of which I would not swap for a windows machine, hence keeping me in the Apple phone ecosystem probably indefinitely.

If it wasn’t for that I’d definitely at least be considering looking at Samsung etc as their phones look easily equal and maybe better than iPhones in recent years.

Agree with others also that Apple intelligence is a bit of a joke. Ironic when it’s supposed to be intelligent by nature!

I don’t understand how Apple fall behind so much in these areas (iOS also?) when they have seemingly infinite resources.
 
Samsung is only good at marketing and that is what they mainly spend money on, and including no ethics way
Looks like Apple was fined 1.8 Billion by the EU for abusive practices...

This right here along with almost all of my family and most of my friend circle being iphone users is what keeps me with an iPhone. I thoroughly enjoy using my S25U, Z Fold 6, or Pixel devices more than the iPhone but the convenience the iPhone ecosystem offers is too much to discount. Apple can pump out the same iPhone every year and people will stick with it because the ecosystem is just that good and as far as staying connected and sharing things with family and friends is just so simple. The iPhone is probably the best at doing what the core function of a phone should be and that's keeping people connected. RCS is definitely closing the gap though but I still love having iMessage and Facetime.

All I’m wondering is where the “coatingate” was once the anti reflective coating came off on some S24 Ultras. It would have been the biggest thing for a week if that happened to iPhones.
I’d rather have an iPhone that doesn’t change in display quality than that.

Apple did this in every country, why only EU say something? This is not the same kind of dirty move like paying someone to keep saying S25 Ultra is the best
