I’m still really torn on whether to buy an ultra. Looks like on Samsung uk it’s still possible to get delivery for the end of the week. Maybe my 13 pro max and Apple Watch can tell I’m thinking about it because they keep reminding me how good they are at the moment!

Read the reviews of a few apps I use on the play store and in general they seem to be much worse than the iPhone equivalent. I’m surprised, I would have thought android apps were just as good as iPhone nowadays.

I definitely don’t think the galaxy watch is as good as the Apple Watch but it may still suit my needs.

Hmmm, still thinking!
Same here, torn:) i generally prefer ios but only 3 killer aps i found - find my, facetime, imessage.. rest either exists on android or can be replaced

I’m in the uk so most people use what’s app rather than iMessage and despite having most of my family on apple devices we very rarely use FaceTime and use alternative video calling apps instead. So I’m not tied into apple. It’s more how well the iPhone and Apple Watch work together that I’m worried about missing. Less bothered about slow updates nowadays

I might see if I can get a free trial. Do they have their own music streaming service like Spotify and Apple Music?

Oh yeah they have an app called YT music. Try it and see how you go. For AU$12/month you get so much benefits from unlimited music, youtube video downloads, you can enjoy youtube in the background while doing other tasks and most importantly NO annoying ads.

Yes, very tough
People, dont buy the Samsung marketing, if you know you drop your phone, get a case ...those cameras design are made to fall apart on the first drop

I've had my Note10+ for more than 3 years and dropped it on the road, on concrete stairs and other places 6 or 7 times but surprisingly the front Gorilla glass still in perfect condition. I am really impressed. Don't know what your point is but i will never put a case on my phone unless i am flying away , jogging or.......

Phone arriving tomorrow and no Samsung silcone case dispatched yet so ordered this so I’ve got a case for this week

I always use this case on my phones. It’s great for the price.

I just wish they would have a frosted back option like they do for the iPhone. The regular version shows a lot of fingerprints on the back.

I'm going to give the Ringke clear matte a try ... hopefully it doesn't hide the color too much ..haha

No matter how many Android devices I get.. I'm never getting rid of my iphone and AW!... Unless Apple really screw up ( CSAM )..
Honestly the Apple Watch is the biggest and maybe only reason I keep an iPhone. I do enjoy the iPhone, its a fine device, but I still prefer my P6P, S21 Ultra (soon to be S22U), and ZF3. If there is ever a Pixel Watch or a Galaxy Watch that can give an experience that I like as much as the Apple Watch it would be fairly easy for me to move on from the Apple ecosystem completely with the exception of the Apple TV. Still my favorite streaming device for my TV's and media room.
