I'm a big Macbook / Samsung phone (s21) user. For file transfers I use Dropbox. If I want to share a url link from my phone to my laptop I simply copy/paste the link into Facebook, setting the privacy setting of the post to "me only". As for browsers, my late 2013 Macbook tends to run a little hot these days and Safari is the biggest offender, so I use a Chrome browser.

I've been pondering about getting a Galaxy Book for university (computer science) because i have a samsung phone, samsung tablet and windows desktop. But the Galaxy Books 3 pro version and non don't look like finished prducts. They overheat too easily, lack power when unpluged and have low autonomy, all things that are really important in a laptop. For the same price you can get all this things with a macbook, but loosing all the samsung echosystem...

@@engel2702 I don't think a samsung branded laptop is really necessary. Just install link to windows and set it up with your phone. The Samsung integration is way ahead of the regular android implementation and IMO the BEST feature is being able to sync/share your clipboard between devices. Crop screenshot something on your PC and you can immediately pick up your phone and paste the image in a message.

@engel2702 Don't get a Galaxy Book. Go for a MacBook. I eventually bought a Galaxy Book 360 Pro (returned), then a Galaxy Book Ultra (returned), then finally a new MacBook Pro M2. Both the Galaxy Books had the same bluetooth connectivity issues, and the Galaxy Book Ultra bluescreened on the first day of use, and the quality of the touchpads and keyboards were subpar, not even in the same ballpark. The screens however were gorgeous (both OLED), but they were the only thing that was good about these laptops. Windows 11 is still awful, and the Samsung ecosystem with their laptops is buggy, unintuitive, and flat out ugly.

Yeah, I tried, but went back to iPhone after a while... I use Airdrop too much to let it go and I love the copy link/text on my phone and paste it on my laptop (and vice-versa). I love Android phones, but I only have macs (at home a mini, at work an iMac and a Macbook Pro in my bag), so I could not give up the perks, earbuds, everything involved in the process. If you only have an Android, yes, you can make it work, but if you have to choose between an iPhone and a Samsung, I think you should pick the iPhone 10 times out of 10.

Neither One Note or Google Keep are my favorite note taking apps. I really loved both Apple Notes and Samsung Notes but they are both platform specific.

Samsung phone and MacBook user here. I quit iPhones back around iPhone 5 and haven't missed it one bit. I just recently picked up a MacBook Pro and find it to be a great laptop for the Adobe range of products and design work I do on it. I still use a PC for my main computer/desktop and that will never change. I use the iPad a lot for illustrating and wanted it to be a bit easier to move files back and forth from there to computer programs, and that's why I decided on the MacBook. While I am overall happy with my MacBook, it's a bit clunky in areas and frustrates me to no end that it doesn't work easier with Android/PC when it comes to simple things like file sharing. But as you said, there are work arounds and I make do.

I don’t know about safari synchronisation, but Firefox is fire at it, it can sync to any device. Plus Firefox has Privacy and Adblock support, Free Relay Email to protect your personal email.

I have a hybrid collection but with Google Drive and Google Photos it’s seamless amongst all three of my main devices, Samsung phone, iPad, Windows PC and MacBook Pro.

I use a Pixel 7 with my M1 MacBook Air and have all the same functionality I had when I had an iPhone and a much older Mac several years ago. The only thing I missed when switching was messages, but then I found the Google Messages app and everything is back to normal. Never used Safari on my computer, only Chrome and now Arc. Didn't use any other syncing stuff either.

It’s so weird to see Americans talk about I message. We in Europe mostly use WhatsApp, thus never have this issue lol

Haven't you heard about SMB server which is also in the settings menu of Finder? It's basically the same as shared folder from Windows where any computer from the same network including your phones will be able to access that shared folder.

NearbyShare and others are finally catching up. But it took them a while... And that is why macbook + iPhone is so popular.

Now we have Nearby Share for both Android and Windows and together it works flawlessly, although for desktop it is still in beta.

This was good. I have always used Android phones, and I started using Macs in 2007. I don't want an iPhone, nor a PC. I usually use Dropbox to transfer photos and some text. It's easy to do, but it is rather piecemeal since I can only move 9 photos at a time. I'm not interested in doing phone things, like texting, on my laptop. That might be interesting though. I'm more interested in file transfers. I can plug in cords, yes, and will need to do that to get a mass of photos from the phone in a shorter timespan. I saw a video about some apps for doing that. Maybe you can talk about that. Thank you. My current phone is the S23 Ultra, and I love it.
