I’m looking to buy an iPhone 15 when it comes out. For those that also have a Pixel, what are some things that each phone does completely better than the other?
I was thinking of using the iPhone as a phone first, and having the Pixel as just a Personal Smart Device that I can use to do sideloading, emulation, file organizing, and other productivity and entertainment stuff, maybe even social media like having Mastadon and Lemmy there, maybe Signal too.
Whereas I’ll have the iPhone for calling, texting, streaming, CarPlay, News, and Apple Watch stuff.
What are some other things I can segment?
(There’s a lot of content and apps available on both, but I’m wanting to know if there’s anything that’s visibly or marginally better on either device that you’ve noticed)
I have an iPhone as my only phone, and a Pixel sitting in a closet. Not sure why I’d want to use both. Emulation on mobile isn’t something I do anymore, but if I did, it is possible to sideload on iOS with some extra effort. It’s not as easy as Android, but I’d say it’s worth considering before deciding to go with two phones.
You can use either the official Apple sanctioned way, where you manually install via Xcode every few weeks or pay $100/year for a dev certificate, OR use something like SideStore. No jailbreaking required.
