      Not in my opinion. I keep them for 5+ years usually.

      Foldable seem like a gimmick to me.

      You mean lost features? Remember when headphone jacks, microSD, & dual SIM were normal?

    Fuck all your bubbles, or any other argument you may have had. The real reason Apple sucks is fucken Apple Configurator. I’m so fucken happy I rarely have to use that piece of shit software anymore.

    Corporate fanboys say what?

    Both of these companies are fucking scum who don’t actually care about end users, what gives? Why are we jerking off either company?

    No brand shaming here. There is nothing wrong. People with low self esteem need fancy stylish bling bling stuff. For these people an iPhone is nothing more than an accessory, you must have, because without you are not a cool kid and your life is meaningless. /s

    Who cares about technical features if you live in this broken self esteem world?

    This, just as an example for not doing the technical discussion with apple people.

      lol I work in tech and plenty of my colleagues and I have iPhones and we’re more technical than 99.9% of the population, including Android users.

      We’re just thinking about tech that isn’t phones so we don’t give a shit about the refresh rate or clock speeds. We’re not gaming on the damn thing.

      I’ve got a computer for that.

        But then why spend so much money on a phone? I also don’t care about the specs of my phone, but this means I usually buy some $100 phone that gets the job done for a couple years.

        I genuinely don’t see a reason why someone would buy an iPhone besides as a fashion accessory/ status symbol

          And that is a bad thing?

          My Xbox and PlayStation and Switch are also “closed ecosystems” and I like them too.

    It’s ironic that about 50% of the phone OS stuff (that isn’t actual technical discussion) I see is iPhone users complaining about Android users saying iOS sucks. 40% is iPhone users saying Android sucks, and 10% is Android users saying iOS sucks.

    The implication being that iPhone users are just minding their own business instead of the reality of making fun of Android users for ridiculous things.

      Fucking real, though. The cultural group responsible for checks notes “shaming people who have the wrong bubble color in texts”?, suddenly think they’re the one’s being unjustly preached to? The joke in this image is not the one OP thought they were making.

      The only thing I hear about is people not continuing to talk to prospective dates due to having green bubbles which is dumb as fuck too. I hate all that shit.
