iPhone vs Android Flagships in 2025: A Day-to-Day User Experience Comparison

on
It’s 2025, and the smartphone rivalry between Apple’s latest iPhone flagship and top-tier Android phones (like Samsung’s Galaxy S24 Ultra and Google’s Pixel 9 Pro) is fiercer than ever. But beyond spec sheets, how do these devices stack up in real-world user experience?  When it comes to raw performance, Apple’s in-house silicon still shines. The latest iPhone’s chip offers blazing fast processing and class-leading single-core speeds, which translates to snappy app launches and smooth multitasking.

Enable DUMP permission in Wavelet

on


Enhanced session detection

Disclaimer: Enhanced session detection is experimental and available only for Android 10 and up.
If you choose to activate enhanced session detection, Wavelet will actively listen for music sessions instead of relying on being notified when a session starts. The DUMP permission is required to allow Wavelet to filter the required information from the device system services needed to attach and release audio effects to audio sessions. The advantage of enhanced session detection is that there is no need to depend on other applications opening and closing their audio sessions properly, which means it should work properly with every media session.

Instructions to activate enhanced session detection:

  • Activate developer options and enable USB debugging on your device as instructed on https://developer.android.com/studio/debug/dev-options
    • On Xiaomi devices, it is mandatory to enable USB debugging (Security Settings)
    • On Realme and OPPO devices, it is mandatory to disable permission monitoring under settings - security center

Visit this website with your phone plugged into USB cable connected to the PC
