Apple made the decision to go with RCS one day before they had to reply to a major monopolization lawsuit in Great Britain. It was not a coincidence.😅

Thank you for this video! As a solitary Pixel user isolated in an ocean of iOS devices in my family, it's great to know that I would be able to text my son or my wife with some decency! Finally! Thanks for all you do!

I love this, as an IPhone user being able to communicate with my Android friends not needing another app is amazing, full quality images, videos and reactions is all i need. 🎉

As an android user surrounded by mainly iPhone friends, I most look forward to being able to text over WiFi. My college is in a location where my signal is spotty at best, and this past year has been somewhat a nightmare when trying to communicate with friends. Can't wait for the full RCS release!

I’m on iPhone currently, but thinking of going back to Android after iOS 18 is released due to the addition of RCS.

We need e2e encryption in the open standard

[RedAugust]

I'm so glad this is happening. At least once my friends update in the fall.

This is Great for Android fans, my bro has a iPhone, it's gonna be nice to finally send High quality pics and videos to each other

[venilc]

One thing I just wondered, I've seen memes mocking the video/photo quality of androids before and now I wonder if a bunch of people thought that the images/videos they recieved through MMS were the real quality lol

[LightningSnake]

I won't change IM app (I live outside the U.S. and we use WhatsApp) but it is great to know that U.S. iOS users have now the ability to choose their own platform (to an extent) and get rid of the bullying.
Thanks EU for making this possible

[plushehe]

I'm soooop ready for RCS on iPhone!!! I'll finally be able to send videos to my family with practicality!

[DavidDeblaere]

People should stop calling this "an issue". It was a choice that needed to be made. A choice to artificially impact perception if Android to iPhone users. Borderline criminal really

Damn, ths is wild. I remember being made fun of back in the day for having green bubbles from girls, friends etc. I never cared or let it affect me as i have always had android since the beginning. But to the ppl that it does affect thats dope tbh. Im sure more ppl will branch out now cause really the features that RCS brings makes the iphone to android gap that much smaller. This is a major win for android to say the least. What a time to be alive :)

Too many people still don't comprehend that iMessage is NOT an app. It's a messaging protocol.

Messages is the app that iPhones use. Messages supports SMS, MMS, iMessage, and now RCS.

1st off. I don't care about bubble color. I don't want Ppl to see if I read their text. What I care about most is the high resolution file sharing. That's it.

[MichaelBTech]

Great video Jordan! 🙌🏾 Thanks for doing a side-by-side comparison! I can't wait until the fall when it becomes stable on iPhone.

Welcome to RCS Messaging, iPhone friends! 🙌🏾

[HiFi_Vibes]

Been using both iOS and android since the first gen, this is like that one kid had had a glow up after high school…. Only it happened 15 years later lmao

[lukegood]

Apple needs to finally admit that they are the reason the txt bubble is green not android especially now since both phones support RCS

[eddw.]

In Android, you can have any color you want for text. Yet, people think the iPhone is more advanced . 😂

[christopherdougherty]

Finally, I hate talking with someone that has an iPhone lol, eventho I have both, android personal, iPhone work
