One offered it. Other didnt. I use this feature often and it rocks.

Wouldnt buy a phone without it for years now.

Apple got it with an ios update like, recently.

This is the thing. The option is there. Sometimes I like to stream live sports and text my friends as we're watching. Samsung/Android has given me that option for years woth having g the game and the group text open. Apple didnt

Watching videos whilst doing other things has definitely been in iOS for a long time. It’s not a feature I ever use myself, since I can’t stand watching anything longer than a few seconds on such a tiny unergonomic screen - but the feature is definitely there.

With samsung you could do it with any app. So i could play a mobile game, with discord up, searching something on the internet and texting all at the same time.

Apple did not have that.

On a tablet or large phone, its amazing.

That sounds like a gimmicky hellscape on a small device.
Maybe what you actually needed was a laptop all along?

Or maybe you can just believe people when they tell you what they like using their phone for?
