If you watched this video and took it as me stoking the flames of tribalism, I'm going to have to question if you did actually watch the video. I went out of my way to say I'm not saying one ecosystem is is better than the other multiple times. This video is about showing off features lots of people don't realize exist, not putting other options down. This is a happy video. Stop getting mad. Of course, just days after making this Google is rolling out an update that adds even more features I would have talked about here: ruclips.net/video/zYA8B26auZU/видео.html
After my horrible experience with them in high school I will never give them a try again, but I'm glad to hear that they aren't distilled essence of agony anymore
I am an avid Apple Fanboy since/from the last century! I watched this twice and did not feel any tribal warfare going on. You opened my eyes a bit and have poked my interest. Subscribed and thank you
As a Pixel Slate, Fold, Watch, Buds, Nest Security hardware, Google Home hardware owner, it does "just works" all products speak to one another very well.
I love quick share. I use it all the time to send large amounts of pictures to family members. It's so quick and easy, generally faster than texting them. Also, even 3rd party texting apps seem to compress videos, but quick share doesn't seem to.
My favorite feature and one that all chromebooks from the cheapest to best do is boot just by opening the lid. Doesn't sound like much but it is something I miss when using another OS. I have a Chromebook laptop and a tablet. The tablet especially, really benefits from better Play store support than in the past. ChromeOS can run Linux apps. It's a versatile OS that's still stuck with "It's just a browser" in the minds of people who haven't used it. If you're a geek it's worth a try.
I bought a Chromebook a little over a year ago for 300 euro. It's great for watching media and email and easy stuff. If i wanna play something i can use gfn or parsec to my pc. Something that current ipads can't do! Ios have some cool features but others can do more.
A lot of functionality between all things Google has been present for a long time now . I used to think it was trash , but realized once I wasn't running betas on my pixel ,buds,watch and Chromebook and went back to public builds everything as far as functionality was flowing like butter .and things weren't broken .
Google's ecosystem is really vast, but because Google doesn't focus directly on its hardware products and the VIP aspect that foolishly attracts people, everyone thinks that the Apple brand is the best of the best, which is patently false. And the Chromebook is evolving at breakneck speed, but everyone thinks it's just a crappy machine used by kids. The productivity of these machines is truly to be praised.
I did this experiment and documented it on threads (pixel watch 2, pixel fold, pixel buds pro) and...it's a bit inconsistent in my opinion...but...more often than not? When it works? It not only works, it might be the most intelligent ecosystem out there right now. The amount of things you can get done and what you can control is effortless and there's more than a few features in said synergy that if folks took the time to learn? It would blow their minds.
Pretty good video Shane. I have Pixel 6a, Pixel Buds A and Pixel Watch 2. For computer, I have an iMac M1 and MBA15 M2, coming from Windows/Linux world. Gaming is now done in a Xbox Series S. I wish Google would release a PixelBook Go with a laptop tier Tensor chip, an alternative to MBA and Surface Laptop. I could probably go that route, as I could do web develompent with it. Other Google ecosystem that works very well and arguably better than Apple's is office stuff. The syncing of Sheets, Write, Keep, etc happens faster than Apple alternatives. And have better live collaboration features too. You didn't talk much about the Pixel Watch in the video but another great thing is having Alarm/Bedtime/Do not disturb synced between your phone and watch. Or having the possibility to see the Camera app in your watch and take photos, zoom, change the camera from front to back, change the mode, etc. And you can unlock your phone with your watch too. Not to mention having Google Assistant in your watch (which is much better than Siri) and interact with your Google software or hardware such as set alarms, timers, home devices, etc. And let's not forget about Google Maps on your Pixel Watch as well, with things like public transport in it, unlike what you have in an Apple Watch.
Good video Shane thanks for making it. There's literally nothing you can't do on android that you can with apple. It's just a perception problem. part of the problem is Google doesn't focus enough on it to educate and apple does. Reviewers saying it just works doesn't help either lol
Great video! How are you accessing the EQ for the pixelbuds, the way it's shown here in this video? Because there is no way to dot it for me. That site gives me a link to google support. Thanks! Any help will do!
I have been a Android user since the first Android phone from HTC, have been a Chromebook user since the first Chromebook from Acer, been a Android tablet user since the Google Nexus 7 in 2012 and yes I am a Google fanboy. What I have loved from the begining is the simplicity of everything, and ease of developing own apps for Android, but I have seen a pattern in recent years where they start to make more and more bad decisions for some reasons. But 95% of the time at home, I am using one of my 2 Chromebooks. At work we use Microsoft Office suit, and its slow, bad userinterace, and just a mess many times in comparsion. Btw I love the security aspect of my Chromebook, it feels so safe.. like checking file system when booting if it is not the same as the last known secure install.. it will re-install the software to the last known secure one.
I will admit familiarity is more in play than most admit. My pixelbook go, buds, watch and folds is setup this way. I use both Google photos and onedrive too insure files and photos go across all my devices, iOS or Android. I guess familiarity and preference is the bottom line
Love your enthusiasm for the Google ecosystem and I couldn't agree more. As I write this I'm on a cruise ship using skylink WiFi. The T & C's tells me that the charge is £18 per device and that tethering and VPN will not work. However my Pixel 8 is set to tethering and it's providing WiFi to my wife's pixel 7 and my Lenovo Chromebook. Google's inbuilt VPN is fully functional. It just works!
I am a full Google hardware user - phones, ear buds, Chromebook, tablet... It saddens me that Quick Share doesn't always work. Neither does the instant tether.
I'm curious, if anyone else is having this issue and found a fix. I can't see much online regarding it. My fiance (who was a lifetime Samsung fan) switched to iPhone. I'm Pixel lifer but when she texts me, it's received but the notification bubble or any notification shows up. It only works for Android users in my family. Is that by design?
@@shanecraigtech interesting, I will do that. I assume that's a "potential positive" for iPhone users. Like you said in your video, the Android/Pixel UI is just more "at home" for me.
I’m an iPhone 15 pro owner, an iPad 9 owner, and AirPods Pro 2 owner. I’m sure Google’s ecosystem works well enough, it’s just that at least in the United States, apples ecosystem is and will always be much more popular than googles. That’s just the way it is.
I’m a 12 year android user and 3.5 year apple gear user , my view is both have good points and bad , when I first bought an iPhone (12 pro max and iPad ) having never touched an apple device in my life , mate I was so lost 😂, because IOS works the same but kinda differently if that makes sense, with out a word of a lie it took me 3 months before i actually started to get the hang of the way IOS works. I look back on my first days with my very expensive iPhone which I just did not know how to use, and my feeling was “ OMG what have I done “😊. I still to this day use my iPhone like an android device ( it’s hard to change muscle memory), but i have made it work for me and it’s actually grown on me. Saying that, there’s still things I wish it did like Android, but that goes 2 ways , android is not perfect either and could take some iOS ideas too. My MacBook ,iPad, iPhone work very well together . As well as iOS on my 4 apple devices, they all have chrome on them as well , so that’s pretty nice , so I have the usual google apps on my apple devices as well. So that is one area that’s a tick for the apple devices and a cross for android, because you can’t run iOS on Android. I still have a galaxy note for certain tasks , a pixel 8 pro , but my carry around is my iPhone 14 Pro Max which has some nice quality of life features like MagSafe for example which I use for various things every single day , Apple Pay is good , if I get phone call on my iPhone and it’s in another room the call comes through on my iPad and MacBook and I can seamlessly take the call on either of the other devices which ever I happen to be close to at the time. I won’t say the annoying it just works, because, just like any media,communication device none are perfect, but I like the apple gear for me.
I used to love my Acer 713 Chromebook, until it started having issues where the OS would not stay stable and it would say that it is corrupted. I tried everything, with changing the memory, reinstalling a new fresh copy of the OS, disconnecting and reconnecting the battery, and nothing will fix it. at that point I was over my 2 year warranty with Best Buy and considered it a loss. I am wary about trying Chrome OS again, because of my past issues, but all of these new features are enticing. I just dont want to waste money on a laptop that wont last more than 3 years hardware wise.
i use almost every platform and OS and 9/10 times apple’s user experience is a superior one when it comes to accomplishing the “it just works” aspect. in my own experience apple’s UX tends to be much more reliable as well. i also think a lot of people mistake feature checklist comparison to user experience. they are not the same thing. just because another product *CAN* do the same thing, often times it doesn’t *FEEL* the same. this is a critical aspect when talking about user experience and how well the “it just works” goal is achieved.
It's important to also remember the role that personal preference plays in this as well. It's entirely possible for a particular task to be accomplished by two operating systems and two people disagree on which one does it in a more intuitive way. If I could amend my post on Threads, it would include something to that effect. The broader rhetorical goal of this video was to alleviate some of the misunderstanding or lack of knowledge. Going back to the Air Drop point, I hear all the time about how iPhone users "could never go without it." Good news is they don't have to! lol. Again, not talking about which is better (although Quick Share has been rock solid for me for years), just shedding a light on some features people just don't seem to know about that I think are not only cool, but also fit the mold of the topic at hand.
@@shanecraigtech oh totally, i don't use threads and didn't see the original post that you referenced in this video. still, i thought this was an interesting video, and wanted to add to this conversation with some of my thoughts.
Weird, moved from Apple ecosystem to Google 3 years ago when I switched my MacBook Air for a Pixel book Go and I've got the exact opposite experience. Never felt a difference other than having to adapt and learn to use a new ecosystem/OS. Maybe because I mainly use my laptop for light everyday software but nothing comes to mind in terms of missing features that downgraded my whole experience.
Thank you for this. Quick share works just fine, "it just works"! 😊 One complaint I have is that multipoint glitches a bit when transferring from my Chromecast back to my Pixel. Apple definitely seats in a throne of fame and mythology! 🙄
The pairing popups are similarly great and annoying af 😅 get on a crowded commuter train and youll frequently get popups for other people's sonys or Audio Technica buds 😅
Obviously Google have never been massive with the PC OS market, but now Microsoft is supposedly following Apple's footsteps with their latest and greatest ARM processor, maybe it's time for Google to push harder? I doubt we'll see anything out of it but it would be interesting. I'd honestly love if Windows and Android because more compatible with each other in the 'ecosystem' sense. I've heard the Samsung laptops have something like that?
QuickShare definitely struggles more than Airdrop. But it also has to deal with SO many different devices. It was a huge pain to make QuickShare work between my OnePlus and Samsung notebook.
Describe what you mean by "struggles." Just as an additional data point. I had an Android to Chromebook issue once, but it turned out to be a router issue strangely enough.
@@shanecraigtech with those two devices, either one wouldn't show up when I tried to quick share or it would show up but when I sent then file, it would "spin" for a while and fail. Never had any issue from Android to Android, though.
Yeah I found myself HIGHLY annoyed with Windows when I really was able to start using it *because* I was so used to using MacOS. One isn't better than the other. Windows still annoys me but I've become used to it XD
Funny, I was just saying to myself I need to buy a Chromebook. I have everything Google but my Samsung laptop and hate the Windows apps and UI. I save everything on my Google drive on my phone but then I have to go to a website to pull of G drive....its a mess. Going to get a Chromebook. I didn't know better, I assumed if I got a Samsung it would be android/Google already. Had no idea it was Windows BS.
Ok ok. I will switch from Apple if You just tell me how to change my 15 years old gmail adress to new one without creating new account and losing all 15 years of yourube and all google data 😂
i buyt a chromebook and pixel buds pro becuse i already have a pixel phone and watch and i buyt it becuse it just works. the chromebook is for me good for 98% or so waht i do in my freetime, to me it will not work for work and i also have a windows mashin for gaming.
I'm good, thanks. I just have zero interest in Apple products. No hate against them, they just have far too many things that are diametrically opposed to my sensibilities and preferences. Maybe I'm misreading this, but your comment does seem a little bit snarky. Like it's laughable or a joke for someone to say " hey, here are some cool things that people tend to associate with Apple that other brands can also do. If that's how you feel about it, I'm not sure my channel is going to be a great fit for you lol.
So I've watched the video and it just seems that everything apple has is more polished and refined compared to the android counterparts. I don't need third party applications to get the same ability which has its own privacy concerns.
To be clear, I only showed one third party app in this video. The implication that you "need" third party around to get the same abilities is more often than not false.
Pixel Watch is the most beautiful smartwatch there is. Unlike all the bulky ones or the square ones. It's the one with the cleanest and more minimal design.
Solid video bro now here's something I've been trying to do for a few years now now that Google's ecosystem is solid I'm actually in the process of replacing all of my products with Google products so all of my work stuff will be done with Google products and all of my recording and editing and video stuff will be done with Google products and I've actually been trying to find a really powerful Chromebook that I can do my video editing on that will tie in with my Google pixel because right now I'm actually when I make my videos I'm using all Samsung products so I have a Samsung device that I use just for recording videos I have a Samsung device that I use a tablet that I use for editing and then when I upload my videos I have to go to my Windows PC and do my descriptions but I'm trying to replace all of that with Google specific products so I can Chromebook a pixel some Google buds and then see if I can do everything that I do on a daily basis with strictly Google products. Keep up the great work bro have a good one I'll catch you on the next one I also want to try and do the same thing with all Apple products because like you said in the video people swear by the Apple ecosystem and although I've experienced parts of it I've never really experienced the whole thing so I kind of want to experience that too but Apple has a really high cost to entry barrier whereas Google's ecosystem the cost to entry barrier is actually kind of doable anyway I don't want to make this comment too long have a good one.

True many people that own pixels or any Android phone have no idea they have this functionality

Very good video and a good reminder of all the things that you can do. Quick Share was a good reminder for me.
Google's ecosystem is really vast, but because Google doesn't focus directly on its hardware products and the VIP aspect that foolishly attracts people, everyone thinks that the Apple brand is the best of the best, which is patently false. And the Chromebook is evolving at breakneck speed, but everyone thinks it's just a crappy machine used by kids. The productivity of these machines is truly to be praised.

Well said and I tend to agree. Not perfect, but often very solid.

Think Google needs to double down on the hardware ecosystem
I don't want everything I copy to be on somebody else's computer in order to get it on my other computer.
Lol, it's besides the point... I have a pixel.... But who has a Chromebook or a pc here? Far from the majority. That's the main point.
I'm not concerned with market share, I'm concerned with showing people cool stuff.
I have two PCs and my daughter has a Chromebook. 😀🤙🏼
Who has a chromebook or a pc? dude these two are 85% of OS the market.
Lol I dare you to try out the apple ecosystem and then compare the 2 head on XD.
I'm good, thanks. I just have zero interest in Apple products. No hate against them, they just have far too many things that are diametrically opposed to my sensibilities and preferences.
Maybe I'm misreading this, but your comment does seem a little bit snarky. Like it's laughable or a joke for someone to say " hey, here are some cool things that people tend to associate with Apple that other brands can also do. If that's how you feel about it, I'm not sure my channel is going to be a great fit for you lol.
So I've watched the video and it just seems that everything apple has is more polished and refined compared to the android counterparts. I don't need third party applications to get the same ability which has its own privacy concerns.
To be clear, I only showed one third party app in this video. The implication that you "need" third party around to get the same abilities is more often than not false.
God the pixel watch is ugly. It just looks so weird. The galaxy watch and even the Apple Watch look so much better.
You can't tell me a square watch looks good lol
Pixel Watch is the most beautiful smartwatch there is. Unlike all the bulky ones or the square ones.
It's the one with the cleanest and more minimal design.
Solid video bro now here's something I've been trying to do for a few years now now that Google's ecosystem is solid I'm actually in the process of replacing all of my products with Google products so all of my work stuff will be done with Google products and all of my recording and editing and video stuff will be done with Google products and I've actually been trying to find a really powerful Chromebook that I can do my video editing on that will tie in with my Google pixel because right now I'm actually when I make my videos I'm using all Samsung products so I have a Samsung device that I use just for recording videos I have a Samsung device that I use a tablet that I use for editing and then when I upload my videos I have to go to my Windows PC and do my descriptions but I'm trying to replace all of that with Google specific products so I can Chromebook a pixel some Google buds and then see if I can do everything that I do on a daily basis with strictly Google products. Keep up the great work bro have a good one I'll catch you on the next one I also want to try and do the same thing with all Apple products because like you said in the video people swear by the Apple ecosystem and although I've experienced parts of it I've never really experienced the whole thing so I kind of want to experience that too but Apple has a really high cost to entry barrier whereas Google's ecosystem the cost to entry barrier is actually kind of doable anyway I don't want to make this comment too long have a good one.
Thanks! Yeah, I'm sure things are great if you fully buy in on Apple as well. No question they're solid products.
