Pobres americanos, se complican la vida por un color

Was iPhone went to android and loved it. Back to iPhone for couple reasons. Live in nz. Most people I know use what’s app or fb messenger. But it costs 50cents per pic to send to those who don’t use those apps. Vs iMessage which is free.
My car had CarPlay. No android auto and basic Bluetooth. Had to use adapter to convert to auto. But was so laggy and skipped a lot. So I changed back. I miss the freedom of android. But the convenience of iPhone is handy.
Miss moving apps around on Home Screen however I like so much though.
Kept my AirPods and used with a Samsung. Lost some features. But it stilled worked for music. But it’s a shame to use anything to its full. You have to be fully committed to an ecosystem

In my country only few rich people use iPhone (mostly different brand flagship phone) and almost all poor people or barely survive a paycheck to paycheck use the iPhone here (new or 2nd hand) 😂
@SundayLunch Says:
Apple's popularity in the US definitely stems from it being an American brand – there's pride in buying 'homegrown'. Looser regulations in the US compared to Europe have also played a big role in their dominance. In Europe, stricter regulations likely create more room for other phone makers to compete. Plus, outside of Asia, there aren't many brands that can truly rival Apple's market dominance. Additionally, apps like WeChat and WhatsApp have reduced the importance of choosing Apple vs. Android in other parts of the world. You just go with the best brand suited to your lifestyle. In my humble opinion, while lawsuits might challenge them, Apple's position is solid for now due to their superior integration. The shit works out the box.

iMessage stopping someone from switching? that is the dumbest thing ever!!! I have an iPhone and never once chose iMessage over other services like whatsapp or telegram or anything else...
@connectorservice3767 Says:
There are few thing bad with Apple crap. Anti Right to repair. Instead of buying part that cost 5$ they will tell you it can't be repaired and try to sell you new 1500$ phone. Also if you want to buy that part they tell companies that makes it that is illegal to sell to someone else then Apple. And that should be illegal. And this is only small example of APPLE BS. They are monopoly compaany in many ways.
@record.retake.repeat7922 Says:
Wait, there are other messaging apps available that is free and works on both apple and android via data so, what's stopping americans? I think it became a cultural and status symbol thing.
@Geblawi Says:
Apple is a monopoly in Switzerland. I swear, since 2007, every other device there is an Apple. Even in the public sector. No cap. They _love_ Apple. As if other tech companies don’t exist.

Apple is also guilty making very dumb Monitor Cables! xD

who uses imassage anymore
@Oliver-cv6pv Says:
Not everyone in the world have an iPhone, it’s just because they are broke asf! Not because they like android, if they had the money, they will buy apple products
@MyTv- Says:
They should make iMessages work fully with mms for high res videos and pictures.
Have iPhones but refuse to use iMessage for several reasons. Mobil data being one, and the stupidly sending artificially low quality images videos.
Third only want one system so I can freely migrate all my old messages, no I don’t delete.
Fourth I feel it would make me look like a corporate cheep.
@MyTv- Says:
There’s a really big difference between reasoning and the real reason.
@DBGG84 Says:
Who the heck uses iMessage? Everybody i know uses whatsapp, telegram, etc.
@nexxus_8487 Says:
I mean the Android watches don’t really work with IPhone. It’ll deliver notifications but that’s it. Can’t do fitness or answer calls or control the phone, etc.
@yagogamer0001 Says:
People don't care about iMessage in the vast majority of places
Why?
Because the US and some other big countries had pretty cheat SMS, so people got used to using the default messenger app
In places like Brazil (Where i live) there is no such thing, since here we aways used third-party messenger apps, since SMS was always so expensive
@UnluckyChumba Says:
When people text me from an Android and I see green, I don’t reply to them.
@HollowdTV Says:
I really hope Apple is successfully sued because I’m an iPhone/Apple ecosystem person, save for my PC which I built myself and my laptop which is a Framework that I can upgrade at will. BUT I want Apple sued so that things like not being to set a timer to only vibrate when it goes off, or having Find My actually work properly and notify when I have ACTUALLY left one of my devices behind. Things they’ve just neglected to fix because why bother? Not like their users can afford to change ecosystems anyway, right?
@harveyhans Says:
only thing id care about iphones is their durability and the fact that they use nvme for the storage
@Schoko4craft Says:
87% holy moly
It kinda makes sense. Kids shaming other kids will always be a thing. And a high garden wall basically creates an own an iphone or be left out situation. Kids generally lack the ability to rationaly think about it and avoid buying it for all the reasons.
Thinking how strict the US is in limiting data collection of children I wonder how this situation compares to it.
@betterAUTTP Says:
why do I feel like a criminal watching this on an iPhone 💀
@nurulindianidol6 Says:
@mkbhd being a technical critic you should also review Huawei Pura series phones.
@imni29 Says:
Interesting. If someone could argue that a smart watch is a necessity, and that they cannot afford the apple one, but require the iphone then it could be an interesting point made..?
@priyanshukariha9703 Says:
when are you gonna talk about the iphone heating problem...i have a 15 pro max...and it just heats luike hell....even if i use it abit...just a bit.....for example i play 1 game of BGMI, which lasts for at max 25 mins...my phone is too hot to hold...no exaggeration...i have to switch hand holding the phone...it happens during the day where average room temp is aroyund 35' C...but at night too...where average temp is 25'C....i need some youtuber to make a video on this...and you are the best person to make a impact on his case...so plz read this...and adress this issue

Common sense🤷♂️
@opinionatedopiner Says:
Literally no one gets WHY apple is a monopoly. 1. They control the app store and what apps appears in the app store. 2. They make a boat load of money off in-app transactions. 3. Apple controls the app store security. 4. So you're telling me, the company thats making billions off in-app purchases is all in charge of the security?! Yes. THIS Monopoly is EXACTLY why the wall around the app store needs to come down. Apple shoudl have banned tiktok for network sniffing, mic/cam snooping, and known aggressive data harvesting, ...a LOOOOONG time ago. But Apple doesn't, because "security conscious" apple is MAKING BILLIONS. It's a massive conflict of interest.
@SpecOps140 Says:
10 years ago, when i was in high school.... fuck I'm getting old... the most annoying people had iphone. I just associated the entire company to bunch of assholes. Also, the whole "wealthy" thing is funny. Yall walked to dollar general, i drove to Canes while bumping my Galaxy S4 lol
@RZZIO Says:
I dont understand what the argument is Apple is a company they can do whatever they want.

Sir, its called Democracy ...
@tranilator Says:
"Trapped in the ecosystem" is a perfect way of summing up how I feel as an Apple customer.
@rjhowtos4130 Says:
I don’t blame apple, and I honestly feel with the apple brand the products should only work for apple products because it just makes sense. I understand that it can be inconvenient, but it just feels like you can’t pair an Apple Watch with another phone because of its status and of it being in its own lane. I know some won’t agree or think that makes sense. But that’s just how I feel about it.
@jeremyholder6748 Says:
As both a iPhone and Samsung user, I don’t think that this is Apple fault at all. I think this is the competition not rising their own self. if Samsung had made better products, then people would switch from Samsung to Apple, but outside of the Samsung phone no one wants a Samsung android tablet, smart watch, headphones, laptop, and so on. Samsung releases a new tablet and no one even knows- but let the new iPad come out and everyone knows about it- in fact, most of my Samsung friends have a iPad and Apple headphones and even a iMac or a Windows computer! Windows have a monopoly on PC gaming and PCVR and no one’s talking about it, tried to jump into pcvr and they got pushed out, so no one should be pushing Apple out of their way.
@DriftEJ20 Says:
I'm not even young, I'm 35, and I was basically forced to switch to an iPhone for iMessage like Marques mentioned.
Basically, my parents are deep in the Apple Ecosystem, and frustratingly, like many other Apple-users in the US, they refuse to use any sort of alternative, platform-agnostic messaging protocol (I'm well aware that the whole iMessage dilemma is a largely US-only problem and using WhatsApp or whatever everywhere else is just... normal). They also have incredibly terrible cell reception at their house and will not take steps to alleviate it. They got a booster from Verizon, it doesn't work well enough, they deemed resolving that issue futile. One of them works largely from home and quite literally has their work impacted whenever receiving calls from Android users, but they won't do anything about it. So, after years of my text messages just not delivering and call disconnects, I caved and switched to an iPhone. It was basically switch, or just have unreliable contact with my parents.
I still prefer Android, but as I get older, I start to just be apathetic about the differences. Being dependent on the S-Pen basically left me with only one manufacturer, MicroSD and headphone jacks are all but gone and USB-C even is no longer and advantage. The main way in which I still prefer Android actually isn't really an Android specific thing rather that Google and basically every non-Apple services are platform-agnostic, so I'm basically 90% Google-based on iPhone. Really all I'll lose if I switch back is years of iMessage history, unless there's some way to export and convert.
@AaronKajumba429 Says:
The rest of the world uses WhatsApp. So iPhone….becomes a nice luxury but not a necessity
@EseIzan98 Says:
People forget that morality exists. One of the reasons I will never buy an iPhone cause Apple is an inmoral company. They apply the most disgusting and money thirsty strategies I've ever seen in a big company
@Doppel_A Says:
It's so insane to look at this as a European. In europe (or at least in germany where I am from) everyone uses either WhatsApp or Discord. MAYBE someone messages via instagram, but no one uses Imessage or even worse SMS. It's mindblowing that people are wasting thousands of dollars on a overpriced product just so they don't have to invest two seconds to download a new app.
I can see how peer pressure plays into it, as having any social commuication app is entirely useless if no one else uses it, but c'mon, you're seriously letting yourself be held at gun point by apple because of some silly messaging app?
I am really glad to see that the US is starting to atleast slightly start moving into the direction of what they are supposed to do. Can't imagine the lobbyists are happy though.
Either way, very interesting & insightful video!!
@rmjrmj4 Says:
You totally need to talk about Microsoft next, with the paid services and how they are going to delete Windows 10 [presumably].
@LibertyOrDeath-ms5rf Says:
Obviously this is not a monopoly and completely ridiculous! Sounds like someone in government is being lobbied by android to go after apple strictly for money.
@jassinzaidani5513 Says:
Dont people in the US know that WhatsApp exists? Or what does i massage have that WhatsApp doesn't?
@itstommyv6895 Says:
US herd mentality around Apple is laughable
@DaBaseBallZ Says:
You know what's funny?
I bet most of those suing Apple use an Apple product daily
@SkylerCleary Says:
As a young person, I truly couldn't care less about Imessage. Android has way more features, options and the ability to customize that it outweighs the IPhone entirely. Android just feels more free. Imo the new samsung ultras past few years have been god-teir
@warrior11134 Says:
I just switched to Apple after being a Samsung user for 10 years. Not the biggest fan of Apple but with their unified memory and Processors, they're just crushing Samsung with benchmarks. But I refuse to wear cheap plastic on my wrist as I love my real watches
@9.v.obeatz146 Says:
Why do android users care so much about Apple ecosystem?
@9.v.obeatz146 Says:
Isn’t that like asking Xbox to play PlayStation games and vice versa? Sounds absurd
@GamerZoneMillennium Says:
Well said... The consumer decides what to buy at the end of the day... Even most of people are not taking full advantage of any kind of ecosystem. And always great inventions got crashed by bullies who fear losing their power...
@TheScottymo Says:
I love the airpods, but hell will freeze over before I subject myself to iOS again. I am, however, kind of sick of Samsung's attempts at it's own walled garden

Might be but it’s not. Just an excuse to make a video.
