Apple Vs. Samsung: Apple Releases Dozens Of Reasons To Purchase iPhone
iPhone Vs Android – A never-ending battle in the tech industry. Now Apple is working as fuel in the fire, just for washing the minds of Samsung Galaxy Android users.
Apple has released a new statement, especially for the premium Samsung Galaxy users. Through the statement, Apple is just taking a stand for its gadgets and giving Android users a reason to realize they should make the switch.
However, it’s the war between Android and iPhone, but somewhere, it’s directed to Samsung. Apple stated that some mobile brands regularly scan the personal information of users in the cloud to monetize the information, but Apple does not. Also, it prefers a different path that prioritizes the security & privacy of its users.
Apple released this statement in Australia, whereas another market is looking at pushing a surveillance burden onto tech providers to flag bad behaviors across their user base. The country’s eSafety proposals to combat terrorism and child sexual abuse have a similar perceivable contradiction seen somewhere else for ensuring the users’ security and privacy while monitoring user content.
The fruit company warned in a statement published in The Guardian that “Scanning every user’s privately stored iCloud data would pose serious security and privacy problems.” The statement has two sides; the threat Apple is lime lighting is that by technically breaking the sanctity of end-to-end encryption, technology providers lose the primary defense as opposed to scope creep.
The brand also warned by releasing another statement, which “have widespread negative implications for freedom of opinion and expression and, by extension, democracy as a whole. For example, awareness that the government may compel a provider to watch what people are doing raises the serious risk of chilling legitimate associational, expressive, political freedoms, and economic activity.”
The point to be noted here is that it’s the same debate that already came into existence back in 2021 when Apple proposed device-side scanning for CSAM. “Apple will be pressed into expanding its CSAM screening to look for other content at the insistence of governments where Apple sells its devices. In the past, Apple has rebuffed such requests because they’re technically impossible. Well, that has suddenly changed.”
Basically, Apple directly hit the security & privacy ecosystem of Samsung. Google scans pictures stored in its cloud and other content as well for CSAM and other material, and it uses the cloud for other types of classification, relying on heavier processing to categorize content and support its application as well as services.
Apart from this, the other point is that recently, Google introduced Gemini, along with a raft of warnings that users’ content created while engaging with this AI will likely be stored in the cloud and probably be subject to human review. On the other hand, Apple is not looking for this approach and is deciding to run AI on its devices inside the end-to-end encryption bubble where that applies.
After privacy and security, AI is the second point of hot debate between Android and iOS. Apple released its statements in Australia just before the MWC in Barcelona. However, Samsung has already debuted its Galaxy AI on the Galaxy S24 series at MWC with a deep focus on-device AI for Privacy, security, and user control, which includes various features such as Circle to Search, Live Translate, and so on. And it is also planning to make these AI features available on more Galaxy gadgets. Samsung focuses attention on on-device processing for user data control, differentiating itself from Google’s approach.
As a genuine opinion, Apple takes privacy and security as a central point of this debate, and the reason why it was released to make Android users think of switching to iOS devices all revolves around the privacy & security ecosystem.
Samsung does an enormous job in introducing its innovative smartphone lineup as Galaxy foldable, and recently it has introduced the fifth generation of them as Galaxy Z Flip 5 and Galaxy Z Flip 5. However, the company hasn’t limited its focus to smartphones but also spread its cutting-edge technology to other daily life gadgets, where the most popular category is smartwatches, where the company has revealed its new Galaxy Watch 6 series watches.
The Galaxy Watch 6 series includes two models, the Galaxy Watch 6 and the Galaxy Watch 6 Classic. The significant difference between both models is a 3D Hall sensor available in the classic while missing in the base model. The sensor is basically used for working accurately with a rotating bezel which is available only in the classic model. After knowing the difference between both models, let’s see how the top model has evolved from its predecessor.
Galaxy Watch 6 Classic provides significant improvements to its predecessor.
Samsung has introduced the rotating bezel technology with the Galaxy Watch 4 Classic, which has grabbed the attention of many users. However, in the next generation Galaxy Watch 5, Samsung has replaced it with a digital bezel. This disappointed the users, and Samsung had to face many complaints. Now to care about its users, the company is back with the same technology as the Galaxy Watch 6 classic.
Apart from this, Galaxy Watch 6 Classic offers the biggest display on the 47mm model. It comes in size of 15 inch with 480×480 pixels. The display is now brightened. It can now go up to 2000nits peak brightness. While the Galaxy Watch 5 pro comes with a 1.36-inch display and also with a lower resolution of 450×450. Ultimately, you will get a better experience of every Galaxy Watch 6 Classic content.
Lastly, if we see the pricing of both watches, the Galaxy Watch 6 classic wins here, the Galaxy Watch 5 Pro is available at $449, the Galaxy Watch 6 Classic pricing starts from $399, and even the 47mm variant costs lower at $429.
