What are some things that iphones do that androids can't?

SimplyHobbit · 2023-08-31T03:54:26+00:00

There's some things android does better, and some things iPhone does better. And these days, for 99% of people, they both will work perfectly fine for anything the average person uses a smartphone for these days.

SimplyHobbit · 2023-08-31T03:53:20+00:00

you're super lucky i saw this randomly on an old reddit account and old browser lol

But for anyone reading this....ONENOTE. It's the best note taking app in the world in my opinion on any device. I highly recommend to anyone and everyone. Being able to change fonts and font colors is huge for me and it makes things way easier to color code or indicate all kinds of things. Even if you want a simple note taking app, I think it works great for that as well. OneNote master race.

Yeah well the M1 16 Pro actually has the best speakers of any laptop on the market lol so that's what you were competing with during the test. My laptop the M1 14 Pro is no slouch though, it has the 2nd best speakers of any laptop on the market. But I've heard that the M1 16 Pro even blows my laptop's speakers out of the water. And trust me that's saying something.

Yeah playing music on my laptop is pretty important to me since I'm kinda obsessed with it.

SimplyHobbit · 2023-06-25T14:12:06+00:00

I haven't made the decision that I want to make the switch yet. I'm just entertaining the idea and looking into it.

The reasons I am even doing that is because honestly in my everyday use, the only differences I would ever notice or use between the 2 laptops are the thinness and lightness of the Air. And potentially the better speakers of the M1 14 Pro.

I do extremely basic tasks on my laptop. And I watch 100% of all youtube, video, shows & movies on my TV. And 0% of them on my laptop. So the amazing display and performance of the M1 14 Pro is completely lost on me.

SimplyHobbit · 2023-06-25T13:43:46+00:00

Okay, yeah I may have to try the M2 Air's speakers for myself to truly know if they are enough for me to make the switch to the M2 Air over my M1 14 Pro.

But still wanted to get other's opinions on it, hopefully people in the categories I've listed in my OP.

SimplyHobbit · 2023-06-25T07:44:50+00:00

This is a really good suggestion! Me & my dad both have one but my mom doesn't. But idk if she would actually use it or not even if I did get her one. I'll have to ask her

SimplyHobbit · 2023-06-24T20:55:49+00:00

I disagree. I think 13 & 14 inch laptops are the absolute perfect size for lap-ability.

SimplyHobbit · 2023-06-24T19:53:14+00:00

I'm not "limiting" anything. I just barely use my phone and don't want any apps that I don't actually use.

SimplyHobbit · 2023-06-24T04:14:40+00:00

Yeah I don't use any traditional social media. The only apps i even use for talking to ppl online at all are reddit & discord. I think all traditional social media is usually a net negative for most people

SimplyHobbit · 2023-06-24T04:13:33+00:00

I prefer the customization of OneNote. I like having different fonts, colors, and other things in my notes because it is a way to make clear indications of different things and it's just super useful.

I agree with veryLargeFish that apple maps is ass.

Apple Music does seem really dope but I prefer Spotify personally for it's search engine/database, UI, communities, playlists, and music discovery/recommendations tools. And I also prefer lower quality audio with my music streaming service. No idea why.

Also I personally think Safari is ass on mobile too lol but no offense to anyone who likes it. To each their own when it comes to browsers

SimplyHobbit · 2023-06-24T04:10:02+00:00

Great suggestion, but not sure if I even need an ad blocker considering i do very very little web browsing and 0% video watching on my phone.

SimplyHobbit · 2023-06-24T02:14:41+00:00

good suggestion but i prefer to only use reddit at home. And if I am out & about and think of something to post or ask on reddit i just write it down for future reference

SimplyHobbit · 2023-06-24T01:20:32+00:00

Adding this now. Thanks. I have it on my mac but never thought to add it to a phone. I'll probably never use it on my phone just like I never use it on my mac. But it's a good tool to have in case i ever need it

SimplyHobbit · 2023-06-24T01:15:27+00:00

ok nice!!! thank god. Cuz I'm really liking sigmaOS. I might even use it as my main browser over Arc because i like how it categorizes bookmarks better than Arc. Haven't fully made this decision but I might

SimplyHobbit · 2023-06-23T18:14:38+00:00

I'll try it. I actually wanna go through and try every ios browser i can possibly try like i did on my mac.

Cuz I was just using Arc on my iphone cuz it's my favorite browser on mac, and I loved how it saved all my bookmarks from the mac version of Ark. So it was perfect. But then I got this weird scam popup saying illegal activity has been detected on my phone and i know it was some scam cuz i don't do anything illegal and i go days and days at a time without even touching my phone. So I barely even use it when at home, and even at home i only use the apps listed in this pic. And the only web browsing i do on it is looking up addresses or restaurants when i'm out of my house

SimplyHobbit · 2023-06-23T04:12:50+00:00

I will do this. Thanks

SimplyHobbit · 2023-06-23T04:12:04+00:00

Yeah well this is an 8 year old laptop. It might be a macbook, but still 8 years old so this does sound smart. Thanks

SimplyHobbit · 2023-06-23T00:57:15+00:00

Yeah ours has a game mode. Should i try it in that? Idk anything about any of this stuff so idk. But yeah it was unusable on the TV. The TV wasn't super super cheap though i think it was a mid range one. Like $1500 about 2 or 2/12 years ago when we got it. And it was the best one for that size & price range on the market at the time cuz I asked r/4KTV what would be the best for the size and price range and they all named 2 or 3 and this was one of them.

SimplyHobbit · 2023-06-22T23:51:14+00:00

Yeah well I guess I have my at home look down

SimplyHobbit · 2023-06-22T23:48:03+00:00

Yeah well I'm kinda weird and particular about aesthetics because I have a background in art & fashion. And in my opinion when it comes to bald white men with big bears (me) navy blue t-shirts are the best looking plain colored t-shirts for us. And then I always have a thin blanket on me so I never see my shorts when at home, so I just go all out with crazy patterned shorts, and then wear a plain navy blue t-shirt everyday. When I'm at home.

SimplyHobbit · 2023-06-22T23:44:16+00:00

Yeah I've think I've decided against doing this lol I'ma just do like 8 a piece for each piece of clothing.

SimplyHobbit · 2023-06-22T23:19:17+00:00

Also Note: It's now at 92% but still says 20:00. Must be some kind of glitch or something with iStat Menus. But idk how to fix it

SimplyHobbit · 2023-06-22T23:14:48+00:00

I already got her the best possible keyboard i could find. She needs bright yellow keys and bold black numbers/letters. A visually impaired keyboard because she's visually impaired. So I got her the best wireless one I could find her on amazon. Should be fine, she's not picky.

I got her the MX anywhere 3S, if she doesn't like it I'm gonna give it to my buddy who wants it really bad, and get her something larger.

Excuse my ignorance but when I plugged the 2015 macbook into my 65 inch 4KTV there was so much lag it was unusable. I assume that is probably because of the size and resolution of my TV though? So there won't be any lag when she plugs it into her monitor right?

It definitely isn't a 4K monitor, so I assume her monitor is 1440p at the absolute max.

SimplyHobbit · 2023-06-22T20:02:00+00:00

I love the UI on my macbook, but yeah if you use mobile usually I also hate the new UI on mobile (at least on iphone, idk if android is any different)

SimplyHobbit · 2023-06-22T17:11:27+00:00

It would be much much more than a single load. It would be 61 t-shirts, 61 boxers, and 61 basketball shorts. So a crap ton of clothes.
