I have been a Samsung user for as long as I can remember using phones, just about. The first couple were Nokia because I’m old. I just got an iPhone 14 Pro as my first iPhone a couple days ago. Unfortunately, I need one for reasons. I wasn’t a huge fan of the idea, but I added an extra line and got a free one. It’s just to play with mostly, so it doesn’t matter. The line only cost me like 15 a month.
After poking around at it for a couple days now, I have one question that really annoys me. Why can Apple use Samsung Displays better than Samsung? The display on that thing is beautiful. My eyes are almost drawn to it. Sort of like how I felt when I got my newest Galaxy, or my Tab S7+, except Apple has kicked it up a natch. The exact same files and things just look better.
Outside of that, I haven’t had it long enough. I can say it feels like a much nicer phone build-wise to hold in your hand. At least, that’s how it feels to me. Then again, I think the S20FE felt better in the same ways compared to the S21FE. So YMMV.
Don’t get me wrong, my next phone will not be an iPhone, but I will say it doesn’t seem like the piece of crap I was expecting after seeing the X, the XR, SE, and now the 12. Those are all the phones my wife has been given for work.
We are all entitled to our own opinions. However, the resolution is significantly higher. The s21FE can’t even hold a candle to the S9+ other than having a higher refresh rate, which accounts for smoothness, but it is still a lower resolution screen.
