I always wanted a SIX Month's Later review , just like this. Thanks Sam. I hope you keep making this SIX Month's Later review series. For recent smartphone or upcomming smartphone.
I’m about 4 months into my first iPhone (13 Pro Max) and I’d agree with pretty much everything you’ve said. The three main things making me think I’ll stick it out for the full two years are battery, flat screen and cameras! I do still prefer Android as an OS though, and if the Pixel 7 Pro can even come close to the 13 Pro Max battery life I think I’d switch back.
i feel like there will be no other better iPhone in terms of build quality and beauty as the iPhone 13 Pro. the same sentiment is shared when it comes to the Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra
I felt that way about the iPhone 3, 4S, Gold iPhone 8, and now the 13 Pro Max. I’m sure Apple will have people saying this about another build in the future.
I swapped from a 21 ultra to iphone 13 pro after the sim card reader broke after a drop. Trust me, the iphone camera is very much lacking in comparison except for smoother video and good macro.
Having used 120 Hz on my OP 8T, I really want Apple to introduce at least 90Hz on the non-pro models in iphone 14 series. But knowing apple and how they milk their products (iphone SE 2022 being the latest example) getting 90Hz is highly unlikely.
I swich from OP7 Pro with 90 Hz with animations at 0.5x to iPhone 13 Pro. The iPhone feel a little bit slower because animations in iOS 15, maybe next iOS will be “faster”.
@@liviurosca I have the OnePlus 7 pro and I absolutely love the hardware. The software on the other hand is super inconsistent. It doesn't happen anymore but for a long time my screen would go from 90 fps to 20 fps lag
I myself changed 10 years of iPhone usage to Android (Samsung in my case) a couple years ago and I can honestly tell you that without the Jailbreak the iPhone is pretty limited, with JB is great but its not easy to get that for every IOS release, so with Android didnt had to make Root, just some basic things like Nova Launcher, Good Lock and some extra stuff did the trick. Never been happier, it really amazes me how this channel is changing to IOS. Nevermind love your youtube vids. Cheers everyone 💚
The iPhone is hard to avoid. Apple phones are so consistent with functionality, along with the western idolizing the ecosystem as the standard for premium.
My Note 8 just kicked it and this video reassured me to get the 13Pro. Loving it so far, sure the customisation and notifications still suck but as a mac user the apple ecosystem is just soooo darn good
Dont you miss the bigger screen of Note8? Ive recently switched to 13Pro and im kinda regretting my decision (coming from a Note9). Sure it’s definitely pocketable, but idk. I miss carrying a slab LOL
@@1DERLEI bruh... Even I'm planning for switch from Note9 (great phone) to either S22U or 13 pro... More inclined towards 13 pro this time.. How has your experience been till now with the 13 pro in terms of battery and camera
I just switched back to android because apple just doesn't do enough for me with how much I like to customize my phone plus I use almost all Google or other apps and never really took advantage of apple apps. I like apple ecosystem just doesn't wow me like others
Sam, you are really something else. I just freaking love your content, your video quality, your shots, man... its just gold. You are my inspiration in this tech/video world. Keep it up my friend. God bless you and your family, cheers!
Well I think I'm convinced to make the switch. I have been a Samsung user since 2010 with their Reality phone that slide open to reveal the keyboard but fast forward to now and the s22 doesn't speak to me. I never thought I would go this route but the improvements in so many areas plus the great battery life has me sold. I feel like a fair amount of android users have the same mindset right now.
Here we are a year later. Apple passed android in market share. Not just samsung, android. So most of the world starting to go with iphone and quite honestly I'm tired of samsung phones. Next time I'll get the 16 pro max.
The biggest issues I have had with the newer iPhones have been the following: 1) Compared to the previous ego round design, the newer design actually hurts to hold in the hand unless I use a case. 2) #1 issue for me tbh. Cannot change group names in the messaging app if there is at least one Android user in the group. I strongly dislike that Apple is still playing this game of colors and discrimination with Android users. Its super easy for them to code an alternate title when and Android user is present in a group chat. The problem is that they don't want you to include them because it downgrades the experience with their features. 3) Gallery app UI on iOS is such garbage and hasn't evolved at all since its conception. 4) UI design and navigation consistency seems to be an issue no one talks about at all. But every time I've owned an iPhone its always frustrating to reach all the way to the top left corner to do a back action, and then in some apps it might not exist or might be found somewhere else.
@Aritra :) Its nice to have a UI experience that is smooth, however I'm mostly referring to the UI itself. To be fair, I haven't used an iPhone since the iPhone 12 Max came out, and I got rid of it within a month out of frustration. I do have an iPad Pro (which I love), and the gallery app on that seems to me okay. Generally I am the sort of person that likes to manage his files and organize them on the phone, cloud and PC. So I separate my files according to their types. On iOS the problem is like most other gallery apps, the "gallery app" standard concept has not evolved over time. Like...:what is gallery", "what goes in the gallery", "are there different types of things in the gallery app", "and why does everything in the gallery app seem bundled together and given the same sort of UI visual experience". For example, I have multiple folders in my phone with different types of photos, family photos, scenic photos, wallpapers, manga, comics, art, tutorials, videos, etc. So, the current standard concept of a "gallery app" means that all of these files/images need to be viewed in the same way, I disagree. Its the same problem with Google's Photos cloud app, Google assumes that every file is a photo I've taken on my phone and the UI try's to identify people in those photos, even though they might be artwork or comics. The UI not smart enough to know the difference between types of images and how to correctly separate and view them since different types of images need to be viewed in different ways. If the gallery experience evolved I would argue that more people would use it more often or have a better experience using and finding things they needed or wanted. I think that is the reason why a lot of gallery apps started to introduce the whole "memories" concept. But rather then reimagining the gallery app as a whole, most just plugged it in as a feature. Most people don't care, so companies like Apple have or see no reason to change it.
i feel like there will be no other better iPhone in terms of build quality and beauty as the iPhone 13 Pro. the same sentiment is shared when it comes to the Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultrea
I switched to Samsung s20 to iPhone 13. It was not an upgrade it a big downgrade, I regret moving to 120hz to 60hz never thought iPhone looks so laggy should have bought the pro version. They don't have iPhone 13 pro stocks I was fine with regular iPhone 13 but I guess nobody buys iPhone 13.
I'm a long time android fan and now I'm considering switching to iPhone waiting for the iPhone 14. I'm just fed up with samsung and their exynos/snapdragon stuff. Where I live we have the exynos and I'm not paying $1200+ for that chip. Btw I appreciate the work you've put in the video I just subbed and can't wait to watch more of your content.
I switched from S21 Ultra to iP13 pro and I really despise iOS, it’s so retarded comparing to Android. Multitasking doesn’t exist and the way you go back in different way from different applications just drive me crazy. I like the size of the iPhone 13 pro and the speakers though!
maybe i wait for the 14 model too i'm starting to hate android, after using my android for 1.5 years it became so laggy, the worst battery i've ever seen.
@@Rico0oG oh I know I remember when my brother was complaining about his galaxy note 9 💀 bad battery, heat issue. I literally want to throw out my shitty huawei but i can't bc i don't want to switch to samsung it's even worse i hate heating issues 😭😭😭 maybe i will buy 13 pro tomorrow bc i can't wait this long till the 14 will come out.
People forget mention the service antennas on iPhone suck compared to Samsung phones I just bought my first iPhone 13 pro max and I have to say the biggest gripe I have is loss of connection or service where I had on my Samsung it’s frustrating
Long time iPhone user here. I got this phone and it’s nice, but it’s so similar to my 12pm it’s hard to even say it’s better 🤷🏽♂️ those Samsung phones look 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🫣🥵
Spotted the Xiaomi 12 (Pro?) at 7.53! Seems like Xiaomi is putting real effort for the global launch, looking forward to your great and beautiful reviews as always man.
You can actually force using telephoto lens in any lightning conditions, but you to do that you need to use some 3rd party camera app, like Procam 8 or Halide Mk2. Ofc it would be nice, if Apple would provide this functionality out of the box, but you at least have possibility to do that, when that’s not always the case on Android devices.
I just swapped from my S21 Ultra to iphone 13 pro after it took a tumble and I wanted to try it out after having last used the 6. Its been ROUGH. The camera specifically for me was a massive downgrade with zoom, overall quality, customization was a real drag especially with timer photos where it forces burst or live photos which never get the timing right and I need to manually click the button instead of butting a hand up for a remote countdown.
I did sorta fall into the different but equal belief where iphone did selfies and videos better but really its mostly just good videos and that something I just dont really use much. Airdrop is great for sharing photos but with the default camera app at least, there aren't good enough photos to want to share.
It’s a great phone no doubt. It’s very boring though, but it does the basics so well that it makes up for it in some ways. Including the ridiculous battery life 12 hrs screen on time without even trying is no problem, that’s really good. I remember getting 6 hrs sot and thinking that was good.
iPhone is better when it comes to optimization and reliability you cannot take that away plus the ecosystem is just on another level 💯 I hate how laggy Android can be at times and that pushed me away from it and the quality of apps I feel is better as well on apples side battery life on the iPhone 13 pro max can not be beat as well
Sam....Maaaaaate.... since you keep just putting that iPhone in a draw and going back to Android, maybe you for flick it my way for a test!? I'm in my forties and have NEVER owned an Apple product but I'm seriously considering entering the walled garden of Apply goodness.
Hey Sam have found that when you are watching a RUclips video on your iPhone you cannot seem to use the camera option ? I have tried to disable the live option but it still stops the video playing . I believe Android never had that problem ?
I assume Apple or YT (Google developer) thinks that if you want to use your camera you won’t want PiP blocking some of your screen, or settings? Likely you want to take a quick snap and iOS pushes the PiP to the side and gives you full screen for the camera. I think Apple feels that a 6-inch screen is really one app at a time whereas Android gives you more options to get squished apps. Even though I have used Android and iOS for a decade side by side I never use split screen or even PiP as they are just not an enjoyable experience. Each to their own and def Android if you want split screen.
@@andyH_England thanks Andy that makes sense. I was a IOS user when apple launched and then made the switch to Android once the IPhone 5S came on board . And now I am back in the Apple bandwagon so trying to find my feet again . Haha 😂
I've got the S21 ultra and I'm thinking of getting the 13 pro max to have the best of both worlds. Tbh I prefer the notch to the pill and hole display coming on the 14 from what I've seen so far.
The only problem with apple is the software 🙄 I want to transfer files to & from... right after i hook up the cable to my laptop. Android let's me do that! It's easy.
I disagree with the conclusions. I'm long past all the customizations Android has to offer (including custom roms), don't even care about home screen modifications (which Sam does very much care for). Yet for me iOS absolutely gets in a way, many, many times in a day. iPhone is a toy with limited capabilities - unless all you aim to do is to quickly launch a couple of apps throughout a day, then it's fine. Terrible inconsistency when it comes to system level navigation (back), inconsistent and ugly UI (absolutely not cohesive, half of the apps are ugly late-2000 web wrappers ebay/amazon wall of text style, some are skeuomorphic style, some with frosted glass, some are good), notification system is atrocious, pseudo-default apps, bad keyboard experience, no real multitasking, or even such nuances like linked ringer and alarm volume or no custom sounds (out of itune$$).
Yeah I hate the way iPhone handle notifications. And I hate the way the settings app is organized. And it’s flat out stupid that I can’t change the settings of a app that I’m using. I would have to leave that app and go to settings.
It all comes down to what you need. If you are an average phone user, your needs are basic (phone call, send text, browse the internet and email) the iPhone does all of those things and as an iPhone user, i really cant complain about that. My only complain is that iPhones are damn expensive! Arghh!
I absolutely LOVE how you setup your home screen! Definitely turning on the bell notification to get it when you drop that vid! Great video again, too!
This phone will be worth purchasing 2 years down the line. Like the 11 pro and pro max are still worthy of purchasing, are great phones and will hold up for another 2 years easy (like any other android phone 🤣) -- android user here.
Just sold my iPhone mini 13 and waiting for my Xperia 1 IV to arrived I’ve missed being able to customise my homescreens. iPhone are great though you can’t go wrong with most phone nowadays.
Then you have chosen the wrong phone if got the Xperia 1mark2 en the Sony is a phone whit almost nothing two customise it's basic boring but it works wel not all of the time sometimes little annoying stuf is happening I loved the phone but being able to customise you did choose wrong
Well i know 1 thing: if you want to be really productive buy a laptop or a tablet. Stop saying that a phone like an android can be productive since you work with a tiny screen. No matter how hard you try to defend productivity on phone you just cant. A phone is ment for quick things, consuming fast media and light productivity like emails. That's what apple does: 1 item for what it is meant to be used. Not 1 item and cranking all the stuff inside so it can laggs and not be reliable on.
I went from Galaxy S21 Ultra to the iPhone 13 Pro Max. Had the S20 before that and the Note 8, 5, 4, and 3 before that. The battery life on this iPhone is insane and have never seen anything like this on Android. The camera is very good and consistent. I feel that the S21 was just as good with Expert Raw (but more flexible) with the exception of shutter speed and video. Android updates are an absolute mess. Just go to the Reddit for the S21 Ultra and see how many are on different security updates, some several months behind depending on the region. And consistently waiting on the carrier to push out an update, not priceless. The fact that my iPhone will get 6-7 years of OS updates and most flagship Androids get 2-3 years tells you all you need to know about this category. This was the main reason why I switched. I do miss having more customization and the super fast speed charging and, if I ever go back to Android, iPhones hold their resell value significantly more then Androids and so there is that.
Lets be honest, the battery is shit, i went from android flagship to iphone 13 pro, battery is superior on android as well as the charging times and since I am a heavy user a fast charging battery and a good SOT is a most important for me while having a good chip inside it
the fact that i couldn't turn off the shutter sound or the swoosh sent messages sound without silencing the entire phone was a dealbreaker for me. plus the AI? molesting my photos without my consent!
Android user here. (OnePlus 7 Pro Nebula Blue) I will be switching to iPhone when the 14s are launched. (14 Pro Max ) My 7 Pro won't be able to get major OS updates after this year, and I don't want to deal with risky Bootloaders. I love my 7 Pro, but I have been makking the transition to Apple with the purchases of the M1 Mac Mini and the 11" iPad Pro. Might as well go all-in and get the phone and watch.🤷🏻♂️
I will say that this the only time I am eager to own an iPhone. The 13 pro is something that I would love to own and is willing to pay the SRP of it. Hoping this year I could. On the other hand, great review as always, Sam. Excellent job!
If they did not perform well Apple would not have nearly every phone in the Top 10 sales list every year! I think you are just trolling as when you look through Twitter most of the reality of bugs and poor performing phones of late are the Pixel 6 Pro and S22U, both of which have had 100’s of issues. So stop the fake news please.
Users are different, the photo takers, WhatsAppers and posers will like these phones. But people who want to use phones for more than that, not so much I have both iOS and Android, FYI
Bro I'm a different user but for me to kill that phone is easy. I can use it for 5 hours straight and kill the battery lol. Like they say I'm a different user.

Likely you want to take a quick snap and iOS pushes the PiP to the side and gives you full screen for the camera. I think Apple feels that a 6-inch screen is really one app at a time whereas Android gives you more options to get squished apps. Even though I have used Android and iOS for a decade side by side I never use split screen or even PiP as they are just not an enjoyable experience. Each to their own and def Android if you want split screen.
@@andyH_England thanks Andy that makes sense. I was a IOS user when apple launched and then made the switch to Android once the IPhone 5S came on board . And now I am back in the Apple bandwagon so trying to find my feet again . Haha 😂
5:20 they can't address this issue as it's a small and very dim sensor (f 2.8), so it can't work in half-dark or darker conditions.
Ummmm can u make a new episode of nova launcher setups plsss
Not interested in iPhone but mann, your cinematography is killer. I watch all your video
The next MKBHD
Nah this guy is better. MBKHD is so overrated. He doesn't even come close to giving actual info and visual comparisons as other RUclipsrs.
@@smperl0c0 ok you know what I meant tho. He deserves 10 million subs
I switched to iPhone 13 Pro from my S10 and after being 7 years on Android. Best decision I have ever made
What about your gallery, did you manage to transfer that?
@@frieza2235 yes everything
Still not easy to customize your iPhone, takes forever compare to Android.
One of the most underrated channel i feel said for this....love your channel borh great work
I've got the S21 ultra and I'm thinking of getting the 13 pro max to have the best of both worlds. Tbh I prefer the notch to the pill and hole display coming on the 14 from what I've seen so far.
hey Sam, i’d love for you to do a comparison of the pixel 6 with the new iphone se 2022!!
I am. You member in serbia in europe wallpapires is great bat is ti mach for me cantry. 5 eur be great price.
The only problem with apple is the software 🙄
I want to transfer files to & from... right after i hook up the cable to my laptop. Android let's me do that! It's easy.
@Anna Naharis You can transfer with the help of a MacBook
That’s because apple varies the refresh rate depending on the app to save battery
What keyboard are u using? Is that the default keyboard?
I used a refurbished iPhone 12 Pro Max for a week and I hated it.
How the hell did you setup your iPhone screen like that?!
The quality of B-rolls in this video is heavenly ❤️🔥
I disagree with the conclusions. I'm long past all the customizations Android has to offer (including custom roms), don't even care about home screen modifications (which Sam does very much care for). Yet for me iOS absolutely gets in a way, many, many times in a day. iPhone is a toy with limited capabilities - unless all you aim to do is to quickly launch a couple of apps throughout a day, then it's fine.
Terrible inconsistency when it comes to system level navigation (back), inconsistent and ugly UI (absolutely not cohesive, half of the apps are ugly late-2000 web wrappers ebay/amazon wall of text style, some are skeuomorphic style, some with frosted glass, some are good), notification system is atrocious, pseudo-default apps, bad keyboard experience, no real multitasking, or even such nuances like linked ringer and alarm volume or no custom sounds (out of itune$$).
Yeah I hate the way iPhone handle notifications. And I hate the way the settings app is organized. And it’s flat out stupid that I can’t change the settings of a app that I’m using. I would have to leave that app and go to settings.
It all comes down to what you need.
If you are an average phone user, your needs are basic (phone call, send text, browse the internet and email) the iPhone does all of those things and as an iPhone user, i really cant complain about that. My only complain is that iPhones are damn expensive! Arghh!
This is first time I have seen Sam in a shirt. Tbh, it feels weird 😬😬
I’m curious how you set up that shortcut to reduce the white points
I absolutely LOVE how you setup your home screen! Definitely turning on the bell notification to get it when you drop that vid! Great video again, too!
Dream phone.
Such a great vid, Sam! Lit and excellent job.
This phone will be worth purchasing 2 years down the line. Like the 11 pro and pro max are still worthy of purchasing, are great phones and will hold up for another 2 years easy (like any other android phone 🤣) -- android user here.
8:30 Minutes, I need a tutorial for the theme switch 🤩
Just sold my iPhone mini 13 and waiting for my Xperia 1 IV to arrived I’ve missed being able to customise my homescreens. iPhone are great though you can’t go wrong with most phone nowadays.
Then you have chosen the wrong phone if got the Xperia 1mark2 en the Sony is a phone whit almost nothing two customise it's basic boring but it works wel not all of the time sometimes little annoying stuf is happening I loved the phone but being able to customise you did choose wrong
Yeah but is it jailbreaked tho ? 👀 👀
Android icon pack on 1:55 please
Wheres my s22 review 😤 😪 😔 😫
Excellent review. +1 subscriber.
S22 Ultra Review?!
Can't wait for that recreation tutorial! :D
Well i know 1 thing: if you want to be really productive buy a laptop or a tablet. Stop saying that a phone like an android can be productive since you work with a tiny screen. No matter how hard you try to defend productivity on phone you just cant. A phone is ment for quick things, consuming fast media and light productivity like emails.
That's what apple does: 1 item for what it is meant to be used. Not 1 item and cranking all the stuff inside so it can laggs and not be reliable on.
Thank you for the review ! I actually discovered your last video about it yesterday
Man the quality of your videos is top notch! 🔥 And this was a great video. Hopefully the customisation if iOS will be easier one day 🤞🏻
Hey Sam, how'd you get past the Shortcuts banner whenever it runs an automation?
the latest version of iOS has a toggle to switch them off
He made a video on that for iOS 15
w vid
hello is there any offline rooted radio app in 2022?
You should try mikeox!! Very good app with really good UI
Not sure i've seen Sam review a samsung device..
Actually, I reviewed 4 Samsung devices alone last year 🙌🏻
@@sambeckman oh really.. my bad. I guess i missed it.
I only see you and your pixels lol
👌👌👌
The best part of an iphone is also the worst part of an iphone: iOS
I went from Galaxy S21 Ultra to the iPhone 13 Pro Max. Had the S20 before that and the Note 8, 5, 4, and 3 before that. The battery life on this iPhone is insane and have never seen anything like this on Android. The camera is very good and consistent. I feel that the S21 was just as good with Expert Raw (but more flexible) with the exception of shutter speed and video.
Android updates are an absolute mess. Just go to the Reddit for the S21 Ultra and see how many are on different security updates, some several months behind depending on the region. And consistently waiting on the carrier to push out an update, not priceless. The fact that my iPhone will get 6-7 years of OS updates and most flagship Androids get 2-3 years tells you all you need to know about this category. This was the main reason why I switched.
I do miss having more customization and the super fast speed charging and, if I ever go back to Android, iPhones hold their resell value significantly more then Androids and so there is that.
Your videos are pretty dope 🔥 I love how minimal your every single frame is 😍
Use Snapchat for a hr continuously it will die 😂
Lets be honest, the battery is shit, i went from android flagship to iphone 13 pro, battery is superior on android as well as the charging times and since I am a heavy user a fast charging battery and a good SOT is a most important for me while having a good chip inside it
the fact that i couldn't turn off the shutter sound or the swoosh sent messages sound without silencing the entire phone was a dealbreaker for me. plus the AI? molesting my photos without my consent!
"molesting my photos without my consent" LMAO!
iPhone still the best phone out there!
B.s when youtube becomes a place where you look for a excuse to make a video just to shove in that ad. Tech youtube is disgusting
Pixel 6 6 months later
This guy saw the Galaxy S22 Launch and could easily afford it but decided to keep using an iPhone just to create this content.
I'm really impressed by your content. It was my first time here and you deserve a sub.
Android user here. (OnePlus 7 Pro Nebula Blue) I will be switching to iPhone when the 14s are launched. (14 Pro Max ) My 7 Pro won't be able to get major OS updates after this year, and I don't want to deal with risky Bootloaders. I love my 7 Pro, but I have been makking the transition to Apple with the purchases of the M1 Mac Mini and the 11" iPad Pro. Might as well go all-in and get the phone and watch.🤷🏻♂️
I will say that this the only time I am eager to own an iPhone. The 13 pro is something that I would love to own and is willing to pay the SRP of it. Hoping this year I could.
On the other hand, great review as always, Sam. Excellent job!
Its funny that when we use these phones, they perform poorly compared to reviews.
Reviewers don't want to upset manufacturers especially Apple
iPhone 13 is a great phone, what do you mean?
If they did not perform well Apple would not have nearly every phone in the Top 10 sales list every year! I think you are just trolling as when you look through Twitter most of the reality of bugs and poor performing phones of late are the Pixel 6 Pro and S22U, both of which have had 100’s of issues. So stop the fake news please.
We got andotard over here lmao
Users are different, the photo takers, WhatsAppers and posers will like these phones.
But people who want to use phones for more than that, not so much
I have both iOS and Android, FYI
@@bobbymunyavi5357 what about it that u don’t like?
Bro I'm a different user but for me to kill that phone is easy. I can use it for 5 hours straight and kill the battery lol. Like they say I'm a different user.
Dude, you need to lay off biting your fingernails.
