Fantastic design and materials.
And iOS is done in good taste.

“Addicted to use” - this does not make sense. Do you mean ‘addictive’?
I use iOS and One UI (Samsung's version of Android) on a daily basis, and don’t really think one OS is better or smoother than the other. they’re completely different, but both really good in my opinion. There are certain features on each that I prefer but not enough so that I have a strong preference between the two. I don’t use a lot of social media apps and prefer web-based Facebook when I have to use Facebook but I do think Instagram is better on iPhone. I prefer the back universal back button on one UI and miss it when I’m using my iPhone. I hadn’t really thought about one being more addictive then the other, perhaps because One UI also has really great features and seems addictive as well,at least for me.😅
Maybe because this is your first time using an iPhone or even an Apple device. After a couple of days the novelty will wear off and your usage will come back down to normal.
Passed to iPhone (14 promax) some weeks ago from a glorious redmi11
I feel like the user experience is so much more comfy and fluid, addictive if you play games i guess?
I happily give up some customization for optimization. I know all my apps will work and are built for a smaller line of iOS devices than thousands of different android models from tons of companies.
On Apple “it just works” and they worth more to me.
I wouldn’t call it addictive for me, but I prefer it as I’m comfortable with it and it takes care of my needs/wants.
Cuz everything is better in iOS, that's an undisputed truth, everything looks better, everything works better, everything feels better, everything sounds better.
Android is catching up lately, and I certainly hope it does, because competition is good for the users.
I wouldn't say the iPhone per se is addictive - it's the smartphone in general.
Probably most of the world owns at least a smartphone these days, and it keeps us connected to stuff we do all day - phone calls (a lot of people don't have landlines anymore), social media, email, running a quick web search for something, etc.
The iPhone / Android is the brand you prefer to use.
For me, I've always been on iPhone, but I've had to assist customers and colleagues with issues on their Androids over the years. Any smartphone is easy enough to figure out the basics, no matter which brand you own; I just don't care for Android's UI that much. I like the way iOS handles things better. Is it perfect? Of course not. Are there features from Android that would be nice to have? Sure. There's also being on an ecosystem and having spent a lot of money buying apps over the years that tends to keep me from switching, even if I wanted to.
Because android is playing catch up with the UI, they didn’t really start honing in until around 2016-17. Apple with iOS was and is UI focused.
Phones are designed to retain your attention and keep you using them, not to mention the apps that also do this as well.
Feel the exact opposite everytime I pick up my partner's iphone (13pm). The keyboards (tried all, incl swiftkey and gboard) are such a repulsive force for me. I just have to throw it back everytime I have to type a bit. How can anyone find ios keyboards anywhere close to intuitive.?
The only thing that kind of holds me in is the Shortcuts app. Kinda like playing around with it.
It kind of feels simplistic and easy to use. Its neat visually.
I find android to more addictive. You have the freedom of customization with just about anything you want. I actually prefer using iPhone because I don’t use it as much because it’s boring lol.
I think it’s cuz of the graphic idk 😂😭
I think they use more salt and butter than they once did.
Maybe we shouldn’t be licking the phones so much?? 🤷♂️
Because it’s smooth
I switched from Android to IPhone last week after 10 years of using Samsung devices. I feel that I was much more addicted to Android as I was constantly tweaking things via launchers, widgets, settings etc.
Since migrating to iOS, I feel that everything is just in place and I’m only really using the phone to text, use social media and watch videos etc. Overall I’m spending LESS time on my iPhone, but the time I’m spending on my new phone is much more focused and useful.
TLDR: Spent more time fucking around tweaking Android than iOS and am much better for it
Android is more fun to try out all the free stuff, plus side loading is super fun.
iPhone i like the quality of the apps better.... but my phone is barely played now.
When I switch to apple I had a blast for the first year trying all the new stuff to me.
Now... it's just a camera, phone and chat machine
It’s an omen of good taste and welcoming into the life of an extraordinary gentlemen, also you may now understand why a small percentage of women show no interest in men that use non iPhones.
Vice versa for me, I use to have an android and would have screen time of like 12 hours, with iPhone things like safari and keyboard piss me off so I think twice before picking it up, cut my screen time in half pretty much so I’m happy to now be an iPhone user
I disagree. I recently switched to iPhone 15 Pro Max from Samsung S22 Ultra. I thought my Samsung was more addictive. I definitely liked it better. There are endless things to tinker with on Android.
It just works.
It’s simple and user friendly.
Many useful apps i use in android cannot be found in ios...so how bro?
Absolutely not, while iOS is definitely user friendly nothing has been easier to use than any of my Pixels. In fact I still have my P6P because some apps just work better on that 3 year old device than 14 pro max.
In fact because of the issues I have with alerts I’ve stopped religiously checking and deleting all emails. iPhone has actually cured me of my phone addiction because I can put it down easier than my Android.
Smooth OS, and ecosystem of devices that work seamlessly together. Apple Goated
User experience. It’s well designed and more importantly app developers have to adapt their apps to only a few iOS phones and respect strict Apple guidelines. Hence more polished apps
Well it depends on which Android skin that you're talking about. For me, Pixel (Stock-AOSP) UI and iOS are just in par — simple and elegant. Most Chinese Android UI look like some bad attempt of copying iOS though. One UI? Other than the animation and it's more one hand friendly UI, I just didn't like the UI looks, dunno why.
You can change the animations for one UI in the Dev options to make it as smooth or as choppy or as non existant as you want.
Or just get a different launcher in general.
I think you misunderstood my point. It has a great animation, but I just don't like the user interface, like the Settings, Notification Panel (replacing it with 3rd-party one from Play Store gives more hassle than what it supposed to be), etc.
