But why iPhone?
I went to search for what the best phones are. Now I'm on OnePlus 8T for the past three years and the device still kicks most phones asses for what was a good price. I'll use this for another two years I guess and then I'll look at what is the best phone again. It won't be iPhone, that's for sure
Apple products are overpriced like hell, and simply not yours to do with what you want.
Probably because it's not 2010 and both platforms are matured to the point of being able to do almost the exact same things for the majority of users, so it's just down to small personal preferences.
iPhone is still WAY more expensive, more prone to failure, harder and more expensive to repair, and you can't do the same with the device as on an android. So as long as you are a rich non-power user with little technical knowledge and don't care about the money, then I guess iPhones (and apple in general) are okay, I guess.
That also directly describes most Apple users
If anything that’s nonsense, iPhones are cheaper and easier to get repaired and far less to failure and I say this as someone who runs a store that sells phones.
iPhones are cheaper than Android phones? And they're easier to repair?
I'm sorry but both those claims are lies. iPhones and apple hardware in general always is more expensive for less hardware. And though I'm sure there are some hard to repair Android phones out there, apple typically makes sure you get sabotaged if you don't repair your hardware at their stores and yes, their repair services are insanely expensive
