Why are you blaming us for something your company does to you? If anything you're arguing for Android since we're not subjected to it. You're trying to make your problem our problem. We're chillin.

wanted to say this tbh
Apple is the one that makes the texts green not Samsung

I have an iPhone 14 rn but I feel like people that swear by Apple never have common sense

Android stans patting themselves on the back for that joke, "no grown adult cares about the color of texts"

Of course no one outside of the fringes of smartphone users care about the literal color of texts bubbles (saying she dumped you because you had green texts is a meme). However, because of iMessage features having a group chat will all Apple users is a much better experience than having one with Android users. The only way around this is to use a third party texting app, and then you'll be suere to face privacy concerns or be using an app that no one else uses. If you refuse to admit this is a drawback of owning an Android your opinion is clearly biased and means nothing

This is true Idk why people think were literally talking about the color when its about the message itself. The color is whats shown Its definitely slower sending messages to androids for me. And while Ive had trouble sending messages to both apple and android, it definitely happens more with androids. Plus, with apple, you can do certain things in the message. But it starts to just say what you did when at least one person had android. Either way, its not the biggest deal in the world. But it definitely is more enjoyable when everyone in the chat has apple IMO. But I also have apple, so it makes sense I would feel this way

Apple needs to get it together. My Android using sister sent me a video of my nephew learning to say my name yesterday and the video was fucking microscopic.
You can have your sister send the video by uploading it to the cloud (using Google Photos or some other client) and sharing the link with you to download. You would then get the video in original quality.

I have a Note and my wife has an iPhone and that's how I share media with her. We also use WhatsApp but you'll lose some quality due to compression.

In a recent Android update text reactions from iPhones now show up properly for me Android users. So ironically they are getting the best texting experience in mixed phone conversations.

dude look at how many people are shitting on Apple in this very topic

lmao There are probably others here like me who have an iPhone and are shitting on you and TC. Its your tribalistic mindset thats twisting it into the opposition being Apple haters. Its just sad to be an adult and care this much about text color.

If youre over 30 or, god forbid over 40, then I have no words.

I think Apples hold on the market will give way a bit in the coming years as people turn more and more to apps like discord or slack for chat. I mean, that's why the whole green bubble thing isn't really talked about in Europe, when I lived over there everyone just used Whatsapp or something else anyway. The only person I'm not in a group chat like that with that i actively speak to a lot is my fiancee, an apple user, and I just send her videos over Facebook messenger to get around it.

Note 9

Some apps like reddit and youtube run slow after running them for like 30 mins and have to exit out and go back in

I understand the battery issue tho. I know they aren't meant to run strong forever.

Maybe but my PC is the same age and is still quite fast for my usage. Like I could prob upgrade my pc and only difference for me would games running at higher fps. But outside of gaming it'll likely feel the same to me but I dont run anything for work that requires a lot of resources.

In comparison if I upgrade my phone I'd experience a more noticeable improvement in running some apps like reddit and youtube.

Ah yeah, Samsung only really nailed down software recently, One UI is feature rich although only cut down on lag this fall, an update unfortunately your phone wouldn't get. They've moved on to providing 4 years of OS updates and 5 years of security upgrades to the S21 series onwards.

also agreed, computers age much more gracefully in general.

Thats apples fault. They can open iMessages to other phones and operating systems or whatever. Only reason they dont is because its another layer of the ecosystem meant to make it more difficult to leave.

My gf has an iPhone has this issue sometimes with texting her other iPhone friends. She also has issues with texts disappearing occasionally or sometimes a random text gets pinned to the bottom of the thread as if it was the newest text. All iPhone to iPhone. And she has an iPhone 11. Cut the bullshit. Every phone has their issues.
