I'm not sure if I can commit to a different brand as of now, but I am someone who liked these new updates on phones, etc, and would line up to upgrade every year. But not any more.

You shouldn't upgrade every year. Upgrading every three to four years is the way to go. That way every time you upgrade it's a massive upgrade.

Or a down grade, I'm reading that the note 9 still an awesome phone, as well as note 10. 🤪, ... in fact ultra 25 was a major disappointment with the removal of bt features of the stylus.

[Rivs5]

Any phone with a curve screen is automatically a down grade.

Usually improvements in new model wait for new information on the model

Specially now that iOS18 is almost a carbon copy of a lot of android/Samsung features.. Is like.. The phones are so similar now.. Almost feels like we can pick either one and we will have a similar experience.. And for that.. iOS18 has better app support.. So it's making it easier to switch.. 🤷🏼‍♀️

What i hate about the ios and I don't think apple has addressed it, is the back arrow gesture on an open app. You have to press the back arrow 🔙 on the open app in order to revert to the prior page. There's no swipe gesture to accomplish that.

[Focr06]

Depends on the app, because I've seen my friends do a back gesture on many apps to go back.

iOS has been getting worse every year since iOS 16. Bugs everywhere. Also Apple has been having quality issues too. The iPhone 16 series have display issues where the screen doesn't register touch inputs.

Like I said.. 😂 🤣 Samsung is looking more like Apple.. That includes problems. For instance, I have multiple apps that keep having issues with location, some, I have to force close and clear cache constantly, daily. I thought it would change with the S25, nope. Of course, I have reported these issues to the developers. 3 different apps to be exact.. S24 Ultra with the screen looking like garbage in some in dark areas, with no fix. I know about those issues, but Samsung is just as bad as Apple.. It sucks for us now.. 😢 😭
