The iPhone from an Android Perspective

[Steve Adams]

I know I have triggered several responses of how dare you! For me, the Neo is nothing more than a 12.9" iPad Air with a physical keyboard attached. I prefer to call the MacBook Neo, the MacBook No. 🥳

Big difference is your Macbook "no" is running MacOS instead of iOS. Hardware is similar inside, software is very different outside.

Someone doesn't get the pun. As I said, my reference seems to have ruffled feathers. 🥳

LG wont work well on VR glasses for the same reasons it doesn’t work well on iOS and macOS: It’s simply poor design. Bad contrast. Text overlaps other elements making both the text and UI elements harder to discern. The huge radii wastes real estate.

I miss tasker COMPLEX conditions. Shortcuts on my iphone is a moment of weeping. Is this really the best apple can do?

I have a Macbook Neo, (512gb in Silver) and I find myself reaching for it more than the Macbook Pro for everyday tasks. However, for most everything I use the iPhone -- almost as an extension of my hand.

I have often pondered how civilization was able to use the rest room prior to the invention of portable technology -- where all we had to read were shampoo bottles.

I still have magazines in my bathrooms. No tech in there.

I am giving some serious thought of going back to Apple. Maybe see what WWDC is offering and then make a decision then. I like Android and all that but I really use both OSes the same way. I think my one hope for WWDC is a way to completely turn off liquid glass and have a IOS 17 screen running IOS 27 for the security updates.

I'd love to be able to go back to Apple but the limitations of iOS just drive me nuts. It's still the best device for communication and messaging in my opinion. But the limitations in how things run in the background annoys the hell out of me. Also, how hard is it to implement scrolling screenshots to the level of Samsung and Pixel devices. iOS halfway does it in safari and some other select apps but it is terrible. Then the AI and call screening. Even though they have call screening now, it feels half backed compared to Pixel and even Samsung's implementation.
