I might have to ditch my S21 Ultra for a 12 Pro Max

My wife and I had both had S21 Ultras -- had them since January. Recently she wanted to switch to an Apple (all the chicks she works with has them, FOMO) -- sells s21, gets an 12 Pro Max.

Esthetically, it is a beautiful phone (personally, I still prefer the ninja styling of the s21 ultra but understand the attraction to the build quality of the apple) -- beyond that, I do not understand the hype. I played with it for a few hours trying to understand the love -- lost on me. Feels not very different to the Apple I had a decade ago. Other than being able to chat with her iFriends she regrets the decision.

I am still in the **** apple camp. I will check back in another 10 years.
 
Assuming both are working as advertised, I don’t think you can go wrong with either phone. It’s down to personal preference. I dumped Apple about 8 years ago after getting hit with buggy OS releases they couldn’t fix for me on both phone and laptop, and went full Android. This time got hit with a buggy Android phone, so back to Apple.

I’ll make another thread in a few years about how bad Apple is :p

Oh, yes still green between Android <-> IOS, but between Androids, you get blue messages now. I believe they have to be on Android 11, and using the default messaging app.
 
Didn't see a bubble conversation coming :lol:

I used Textra exclusively on Android and it's very customizable. Choose your own whatever.

iOS there are 3rd party apps, but I don't see the need.

You should show her Textra on the S21. It's the best messaging app I've ever used, and you choose your own bubbles :lol:

Poor lazy you don't understand.

It's not how you see the bubbles it's how other people see your bubbles that matter.
