Why do iPhones “feel” better? - eviltoast

Hello. New to this sub and using iPhones in general.

I came from an S22 ultra to 11 pro max (wife’s old phone) to now having a 15 pro max.

I have used Samsungs all my life. And I can say with confidence that I used to thing there’s minimal, if any, difference hardware wise or any other matter. It’s just preference.

Using the 11 pro max was to just test the waters on ios and to be frank the experience was not great compared to the almost flagship S22 ultra.

But man is the 15 pro max something else. I don’t know just what it is but I am in love with a phone after a very long time.

Maybe it’s the novelty factor, maybe it’s what my wife calls “the iPhone charm”, or maybe something else.

Just wanted to ask other people who might have switched if they too feel the same and if yes, how do they describe this feeling.

Thanks.

P.s. I still have my S22 U for sentimental reasons and I’m not bashing any phone, just appreciating.

    I find that iOS (and Google’s version of Android) have a lot of squeeze and stretch, and playfulness to their animations, which are not present in Samsung’s Android skin in the same way. That playful responsiveness is MASSIVE for making things feel good and charming.
