What I hate about these AI-comparison articles is that nobody of those so-called "journalists" understands, that Apple's AI runs locally on the device. Whereas Gemini runs in Google's cloud - which in turn means that Google get's a copy of every single request/prompt. Also, no mention of iOS 26's new call screening feature - which asks unknown callers for their name and purpose of the call and displays this on the screen before your phone starts to ring. And, again, it's all happening on-device.

Nice! Thanks for pointing this out!

I'm no fan of Android, but it's had this capability for years. This feels like Apple inventing the rectangle again.

Every once in a while the ai part of my phone will get hot and I assume it got a new email or something. Generating emojis makes it a toaster!

Apple’s going to add some transparency to buttons and call it a groundbreaking redesign while Android is going to go all in on AI.
So iPhones will become more Apple and Android will become more Google.
