I Switched From Android to iPhone After 12 Years: 8 Things I Learned

As a phone reviewer specializing in Android devices, I recently had the opportunity to delve into the world of Apple with the iPhone 16 Pro. This switch was a significant change for me, as I had not used an iPhone as my primary device since the iPhone 5 back in 2012. The experience of transitioning from Android to iOS was eye-opening, and I discovered several key differences between the two platforms during my two-week trial with the iPhone 16 Pro.

One of the major challenges I faced was transferring my WhatsApp data from Android to iOS. While there are now tools available to facilitate this process, such as the Move to iOS app, setting up WhatsApp on the iPhone can still be a cumbersome task. I found a workaround by adding the iPhone as a ‘Linked device,’ allowing me to keep my Android phone as the primary device while still accessing WhatsApp on the iPhone.

The design of the iPhone 16 Pro also presented some notable differences from the Android devices I was accustomed to. The addition of extra buttons on the side, including the Action Button and Camera Control button, offered mixed results. While the Action Button was a convenient feature for toggling Silent mode and accessing various functions, the Camera Control button felt more cumbersome than practical.

When it came to video quality, the iPhone 16 Pro excelled, surpassing even the best Android devices I had tested. The crisp detail, accurate colors, and smooth transitions in video footage captured by the iPhone were unmatched by any Android phone I had reviewed.

The Face ID feature on the iPhone 16 Pro stood out as a superior biometric authentication method compared to Android devices. The speed and reliability of Face ID, especially in various lighting conditions, set it apart from Android’s facial recognition systems.

iMessage, Apple’s messaging app, proved to be a standout feature of the iPhone. Its seamless integration of SMS, MMS, and iMessages, along with features like automatic message deletion and cross-device syncing, made it a compelling messaging platform.

However, the iPhone’s notification system and Control Center functionality left much to be desired compared to Android. The handling of notifications and limited control options in the Control Center were areas where iOS fell short in my experience.

Despite these drawbacks, the iPhone 16 Pro impressed me with its overall performance and features. The device showcased Apple’s commitment to innovation and solidified its position as a top contender in the smartphone market. While Android remains my preferred platform for now, I can appreciate the unique strengths of the iPhone and its ecosystem of products. The iPhone has undoubtedly evolved significantly over the years, solidifying its reputation as one of the best smartphones available in 2025.
