@OP sorry to say this but I have to be blunt. Maybe you are still very young and in the discovery stage, but judging from the conversation she is way more matured than you are. I mean like miles ahead and yes to your question you did the wrong thing.

You may want to disagree now, but with time you will definitely realize that she has a better understanding of life than you. If I were you, I will put my ego aside and learn from the comments.

Damn this is sad

Again, innovation is beyond 20gb RAm that android packs. Technical innovation is the reduction of reliance on RAM and faster processor. A15 bionic chip with 4Gb RAm is better than Samsung devices with 16Gb RAM…
There is this technical Theory that the faster the processor, the more power it consumes, but iPhone is breaking that. As they continues to doll out efficiently powerful processors, the power consumption keeps reducing which is completely opposite of an android device. If this is not innovation, I wonder what it is. Oh fingerprint on screen? That’s not new, the typical Biometric device is a screen device that captures the picture of your thumb and with deep learning we are able to classify correctly. The foldable Samsung is one the Biggest invention so Far. But a faster processor is a big innovation on its own.


I won’t blame you though, you are just a typical smartphone user who is only concerned about Camera, Fingerprint placement and Screen resolution. Those are not innovations and never an invention. What are the innovations on Laptops, and desktops? The processor like the core and Amd processor as well as the GPU processing where Nvidia is obvious winning. These are innovations, not the placement of camera or a different style of smartphones. Please grow beyond design freaks but system freak and Computing power. These devices are faster than some dedicated machines like the PlayStation…

The GPU on iPhone 13 is enough to beat the Sammy. I am a big fan of Samsung btw. So this my truth.

Modified: MacOs is always ahead of Windows. Sorry to say. Could you mention one advantage of using the windows over the MacOS. I haven’t seen. But I could tell you some technical advantages for me personally.

1. Parallel Computing and Distributed Learning; As a deep Learning Engineer and Programmer, I am majorly concerned about OS that can flexibly make my work easier. The Nvidia SLI cannot be so well integrated on Windows. While I prefer Linux for such task, MacOs could get me to do just that. But a Windows? Tofiakwa

2. Command Line: Bash and other scripting Languages. It’s completely bleeped on Windows.

3. MacOs is so easy to navigate, your files and data are secured than the Windows.

4. Integration with your smartphone is even another advantage. I can literally do my FaceTime, pick my calls and operate my phone without a third Party app unlike the Windows.

5. You can partition to own all the OS in the world. Just like what you did

Several others….

I ignored this particular argument because in a bid to score some points you tried to shift the goal post thereby coming up with so much misinformation. I will respond to it regardless.

My argument is about how these implementations translates to benefits for the consumer of the end product. I do not disagree with the fact that the A15 is a powerful chipset, but my question is how does it translate to real life usage that makes you term it an innovation? Did you watch the Apple event? Well I guess you did that's why you keep hammering on the A15. Now let's even talk about chipsets. For everyday use and even app opening speed, the A14 does not beat the snapdragon 888 chipset. You can refer to speed test comparisons on YouTube for proof. You will realize that there is no outright winner in this regard, but my questions still remains, how does a few seconds app opening speed translate to innovation?

The A14 did not come with a 4gb ram, but rather a 6gb ram. And note that it does not beat the S21 ultra in multitasking. The powerful chipset the iPhone uses does not result in the less reliance on ram but rather the architecture of the OS itself. They make the hardware, chipset and OS for just a few of their phones hence resulting in a very optimized OS compared to Android that is open source, built on a different architecture that was not originally for phones and has to be integrated into over a thousand different phones, plus the fact that even the chipsets are made by another company except for Samsung and their Exynos which currently cannot measure up so it takes a lot of effort to make things work.

You talked about power efficiency, the A14 is not more power efficient than the snapdragon 888 and it is not the opposite of Android devices as the new iterations are also more power efficient. Do not try to rubbish the finger print biometric on the android phones. The face id on the iPhone was a big one, however when you have your nose mask on it becomes useless.

You are totally wrong about me and you are taking the argument in another direction. I am not a fan of either of them, but rather a consumer who wants more value for my money. I dumped Samsung in the past due to heat problem which of course do not happen in the iPhone and I appreciate that but also of which the competition has been able to solve that problem too. My question still remains how does these acclaimed innovations better the life of the average consumer? A few milliseconds faster in app opening speed? Innovation has to include implementation and value creation and for now the processor power thing is more about paper statistics and in no way translates to everyday use unless they come up with a way to fully implement it's usage to further benefit the average consumer. For example with the power of these machines they still lag after some minutes with very heavy games which should be a demonstration of their power.

As for the Mac OS, I agree with your point 3,4 and 5. Point 4 is about the seamless connectivity and interactions between their product line which is excellent and deserves some real credits (That is what I mean by innovation that better the lives of the average consumer) I have mentioned this in my earlier argument. The 1 and 2 are not my areas. I never argued that it was a less powerful OS, but for my kind of work and the apps I use, the Windows delivers better with ease. I will never buy a windows computer, I will rather buy the Mac and install the Windows on it because of the better hardware and somehow it seems to be smoother here than on my previous Windows Pcs thanks to Apple for bootcamp. Now that is what I call innovation that benefits the average user. I am done with this argument @seanwilliam

seanwilliam:
Lexiboyz what’s your take on this ?

Honestly I’ll be very disappointed if you can’t come up with solid point to counter this

Lol. I gave up on the argument when I saw so much misinformation in his reply. I realized there was no point since we will just keep going back n forth but I will reply to point out the errors and also state my position clearly.

A15 bionic chip is the Fastest on any sMartphone in the world. Apple didn’t promise you innovation in the iPhone 13 but a faster processor. After all 11, 12, and 13 are the same prices. You can’t tell me Windows is more productive than MacBook lol. You are more funnier than I thought you would. I stopped using Windows in 2017 and I have been using Mac and Linux for programming, I will never use Windows.

I’m currently using the 12pro Max, and I have set up
My Apple Pay to preorder the 13proMax. No one is and no should expect any difference. Many users have not even explored the 11 to its maximum capacity so you won’t feel anything new.

How does the faster processor improve the life of an average phone user? You still don't get it. Check speed tests of these phones compared to their competition and you wouldn't dare call that an innovation. A few milliseconds ahead in opening apps is that what you call an innovation lol. I think you're actually the funny one here, and guess what it goes both ways even. No one wins out rightly.

For the Macbook, windows is more productive for my kind of work compared to MacOs hence the reason why I installed it. However the solid build of the Mac is great and shines above all the windows pc's I have used in the past. It's all about what works for you and makes your life easier that's the idea. I see no reason why one should be Loyal to one brand and act blind to the disadvantages associated when you can actually enjoy the goodness of both.

You never owned the 11 pro. You are a Samsung fanatics and it’s a good thing! But trying to tear through Apple in other to make SS look okay is funny.

Just a little reminder, Samsung does chip for Apple and never was a phone producing company. They stole apple designs which they paid heavily for! I have used Samsung devices before and in all true sense cannot compare with apple devices.

It is like comparing XBOX with the PlayStation, they are world apart!

It's funny how you arrived at your conclusion. I own a Macbook pro 2015, an apple watch series 5 and an 11 pro. My last android was the poco x3 Nfc. I am not speaking from the perspective of a fanatic but rather from experience. In terms of hardware the iPhone is great and durable, but software wise there is less and less productivity save of course for the seamlessness of the ecosystem which I enjoy kinda.

I am not a fan of either Apple or Samsung, I go with what delivers and to be honest the iOS is not productivity oriented. Unfortunately I have to deal with this frustration as I have no other choice. Like I said earlier, once I get the money, I will likely get the S21 ultra for it's elegance and productivity while I retire the iPhone to photos and calls which unfortunately it is only good at. And maybe storing some secure and vital stuffs too.

If you have used both and you're a productivity oriented person like me, you will agree with me on this point but if not then I guess there's no point for this argument. The only thing I can say to prospective buyers is 'IT'S NOT WORTH THE HYPE' depending of course on what you intend to achieve.

One more thing. No phone is worth over a thousand dollars. It's totally insane how these guyz keep milking our pockets dry.

A12, A13, A14, A15 Bionic Chip. These are the fastest processors ever to exist at the time they were released.

The iPhone 13 series has the A15 bionic Chip. This alone is enough to topple any innovation. It took Tesla 5 years to design their own processor for the Self driving Car and they stopped buying from NVIDIA. If you are not technical enough to know this, you know you are not in the best position to do some review

How is the faster Chipset an innovation when in reality it doesn't improve the life of the user in anyway. If you have used the 10, 11 and then the 12, then trust me you won't notice any single difference in the day to day usage including gaming.

Talk about 120hz display, talk about superfast charging, talk about Usb C and ease of file transfer, how about multi tasking? The iOS is still very much limited in performing very basic tasks a 'smart phone' should be able to perform with ease and it can get quite frustrating having used an android before.

The boxy design is a mess. But everybody is acting like it's the best thing after slice bread. You can't hold your 12 pro max for long without getting really uncomfortable due to the boxy edges. The edges of the 11 line up and it's predecessors are more natural and would give you a good and comfortable grip.

Ps: I also use the Mac but I had to install windows 10 on it for more productivity. The machines are powerful but very limited in terms of Software. So innovation for me would be more about user friendliness and ability to perform day to day tasks with ease. Thank you.

Op you're absolutely right. I watched the event and was expecting something 'new' only to be disappointed in the end. The new iPhone 13 line up should have been a 12s series instead. The S21 ultra still topples it unfortunately even when it's older.

Apple should really step up their game, become more innovative and stop relying on the loyalty of their customer base to keep dishing out same phones every year.

Fingers crossed waiting to see what Samsung has to offer in the up and coming S22 ultra. In my honest opinion though I think they should all stop releasing phones every other year !

I own the 11 pro, there was no 'new' innovation in the 12, and now the 13's lack of innovation is worse. I will just hold on to my phone jeje and if money enter my hand I buy the S21 ultra to enjoy a premium phone.

If money was really everything then Bill gates and Jeff Bezos would still be married to their partners.

Hmmm.

1. You ran through your dating list.
2. One of the ladies you have been dating.

What kind of a Christian are you again?
