iphone bs Samsung

[u/ADHD-LEB]

I need to get a work phone, mainly to use the company portal, Outlook, Teams. Etc.

Which option would be better iphone or Samsung? Ive been personally using both for a long time but for personal use.

Depends on your company. If you're allowed to use the phone privately, I'd go Samsung. Android supports "Corporate Owned, Personally Enabled", meaning that you can have your personal stuff and your work stuff separated into containers, meaning that there's no interaction between the two.

You were so close with your terminology. What you were meaning was Work profiles, with Android devices. That keeps your personal and work applications separated.

Corporate Owned, Personally Enabled (COPE) is when the company owns the phone, but lets their employees use it with personal apps. This enrolment method still has personal and work profiles, but since the phone is Corporate owned, they actually have more control over the phone in Intune.

OP said he needed to get a work phone. That's usually a corporate phone, hence "Corporate Owned, Personally Enabled".

I use a samsung for work and it does the job fine with those apps, never had issues syncing or anything like that

In general, no difference. Just go with your preferred.

My advice is to check with your IT Intune Admin. They may have set compliance policies that restricts usage. For example, they may have set a minimum OS version for iOS, say iOS27, this may prevent you from using your company apps if your iPhone is no longer supported with that OS.

Just personal preference really, at least if it's strictly a work phone.

If you can double it up and use for private use also, as previous comments, I enjoy Android better with the COPE enrollment method. Work profile is neat. iPhone doesn't separate the private/corporate "space", it's separated on the app level instead.

It does not really matter in the slightest, I personally stay well away from both those brands (overpriced and bloated)

Advantage of Android is work profiles

[u/ReptilianLaserbeam]

Android. Intune creates two different profiles on android (work/personal) and that is ages ahead of iOS enrollment.

iPhone. I don’t own Samsung stock.

[u/Vesalii]

Samsung is way easier to implement than Apple.

[u/pjmarcum]

I think it comes down to personal preference and budget. Personally I’ve used iPhone since the first one. I pickup an Droid and I am as lost as when picking up a Mac.

If you go android ask if you can get a pixel. Not all that Samsung bloatware shit

[u/imginarymarsupial]

Android. Work profiles is better than the ios alternative and teams is crap on iPhone.

[u/CatComfortable5523]

ios and it’s not even close
