Android User Switches to the iPhone 6s: Mistake?

2015-10-21
how's it going guys my first honor here with TechnoBuffalo and I thought we would do a fun little video something that I haven't done in a very long time you guys know I'm an Android user Android I hard spent a little bit of time recently using this little nugget right here so first up just really quickly I used to work at Apple I was an Apple retail I just like I used to have an iPhone I get it I like to try and keep an open mind I am an Android user because I think it's the best solution for me I understand that everybody is a little bit different so what works for you might not work for me but I thought it would be really cool to kind of look at the iPhone as an Android die hard and my takeaways are thus so I think iOS is kind of finally there for me anyway it finally feels like a really really mature OS information density is still a little bit lacking so that's not ideal for me but I found myself really enjoying the shortcuts in the control panel I realize the control panels not new and just so that you guys know I haven't tried an iPhone since I believe 24 early 2014 I want to say and that's really not all that long ago the last one I tried out was the 5s so that's two generations now but just about everything on the 6s works the way you would expect it to and that's exciting for me everything feels really polished now and it really kind of feels like iOS has kind of grown up everything from Apple pay which works fantastically especially here in California where we have electric vehicles you just walk right out of course this is true about Android as well but you just walk up and beep and you're charging your cards great touch ID is Krave crazy Gaston crazy fast it's almost too fast I when I when you touch the device I got to do this weirdly here it's it's seriously because I don't even have my pointers but it's so fast that when I go to wake up the device if I pick up my thumb it's still unlocks it unlocks faster than I can even get my thumb off of it like it's it's crazy fast almost too fast and it's just about as fast as I've been using the five access or fingerprint reader there which is really great the big thing for me though is 3d touch and I realize that 3d touch is Apple doing something that will probably come to other devices will definitely come to other devices very quickly but being the first one to do it and doing it pretty well in my opinion is what Apple is all about so it makes me excited when I see implementations like 3d touch go really really well so for example let's just give you I know you guys have seen 3d touch before but here's one of the situations where I've been using it a ton over here in Instagram I I'm big on Instagram this is my profile so being able to peek and then pop in is such a big deal for me and just from a user experience perspective it really matters to not have to hit the back button I get really excited about things that are going to kind of change the way we interact with devices and I can't wait for 3d touch to hit Android I don't really care about the implementation quite as much as I'm excited to be able to dive deeper into apps but from a user experience perspective it really does make a huge difference to not have to hit a back button when you're done with with with something so whether that's viewing an email in a peek or viewing a photo in a peek whether it's an Instagram or tweet bot it makes such a big difference subconsciously how fast something behaves or how fast it seems to behave just like on Android where you turn the animation speed down so that your excuse me up so that the time is lower so it feels like your phone's going faster just not having to hit the back button for peaking makes all the difference and it makes our phones feel smarter so I'm really excited for that to hit Android and I'm really excited to see Apple doing really cool stuff like that again in terms of a bill the phone is a beautiful phone you know it's an iPhone so as John kind of said in his review it's it's an iPhone and that's not this is a really bad thing it's a little bit iterative at this point you know all aluminum body of course 7000 series of aluminum of course the new pretty rose gold but I think that the biggest takeaway for me as an Android user looking at the iPhone 6s my biggest thing is 3d touch I cannot wait to see 3d touch on more devices and that's really that's my take away great camera great screen it's a good phone I'm not crazy about iOS I still much prefer Android but 3d touches is the only thing that's got me does really start to think twice about that if any of you guys are Android users and you happen to have access to an iPhone I would much very much recommend you picking up the device and playing around with it if you haven't in a while iOS has definitely matured in a few years so let us know in the comments would you guys think do you think 3d touch is going to be as big a deal as I think it is or am i over hyping this let us know and as always thank you for watching be kind to one another and I'll catch you in the next video
