Comment on Apple projected to surpass Samsung as global smartphone shipments leader
dukatos@lemmy.zip 12 hours agoMotorola is not flawless. There is a lot of bloatware and adware from the start. For example, there is a service that installs shitty apps and games every day without consent. Also, after Android 15 upgrade, we got "Live lock screen” that re-enables itself if you disable it. And it is designed to serve you ads on the lock screen.
I am playing with an old iPhone 13 to see is it possible to switch once Google locks Android up and I see no bloatware you are mentioning. If there is something I don’t need or like I can uninstall it. For some shit on Motorola I had to use adb. And that phone is not that cheaper than iPhone.

Nowhere did I say Moto was flawless. I insinuated that Moto was much better than Samsung if that’s what you’re arguing? I have no clue what you’re taking about as far as the service that automatically installs games every day. And I just searched everything in my settings and don’t see anything about a “Live lock screen” . I don’t remember seeing anyone else discussing it either. Regardless, the content of my comment was based solely on first hand experience.
My experience with iPhone is horrible hardware support, locked down software/hardware integration, forced ads on browser…etc. If I’m spending $800 I should be able to expect better than USB 2.0 speeds on the iPhone 15. Why should I need to be the 15 Pro to get USB 3.0? As far as bloat is concerned, they’re all pretty bad. I just wanted to highlight how bad Samsung is. Apple still has: Podcasts, iTunes, Stocks, Apple Maps, Books, Home, Safari, Wallet, Facetime, etc. I left all of my Apple gripes out because it’s irrelevant to the conversation at hand.
