iPhone gonna stay as my primary phone

[glock115]

I go through this every year but i think I'm gonna keep the Note 10 plus as a backup. iMessage, the watch and the easier one hand use of the iPhone are keeping me hooked.
The screen on the note is so beautiful though.

What carrier is your service?

I usually do the same but this year I carry a iPad mini LTE which keep me in both worlds. Use iPhone for years and now that I can get iMessage on my note it's really doesn't matter anymore.

So I'm assuming u dont have the max model if it's easier to use one handed. My xs max is heavy.

Yes the Note10+ is huge. Almost impossible to use it with 1 hand...

iMessage on Note? How you do that?

Wow! A $1100 phone as a backup. First world problems. I couldn't even enjoy my Note10 if it was a backup. Unless one is a work phone, I am totally out of the loop in understanding having 2 phones.

I have two phones. One work one personal. I really with the note in the US would have dual SIM so I could carry one phone.

I do have the Max, definitely not ideal using it one handed but better easier than the note.

Note + is two tenths of an inch longer and very slightly less wide than the Max. I have the Max and personally don’t see it having an advantage regarding one handed use based on playing with the Note demos. I’m contemplating the Note and don’t care at all about iMessage. I go back and forth between Android and Apple and never saw any striking difference of a kind that would change my decision.

I don't know how this is possible. I have the XS Max and the Note 10+ and Note 9. In no way is the XS Max easier to handle with one hand than Note. With the Note, you have the option to shrink the screen with one hand if you can't reach something, whereas on my XS Max, there is no such thing. The only thing they have is moving app drawer icons down so they can be reached, but that does nothing when running a app that you're trying to control with one hand? Maybe I'm holding the XS Max wrong but I have pretty big hands. LOL!

iPhone max should have reachability mode swipe down on the bar brings screen half way.

That's actually what I meant when I said you can have the option to move the icons down, but you still can't reach the far edge icons when you do that. When you use one-handed mode on the Note, you can access the entire screen for most people with average hands.
