Buy a Fairphone instead.
Apple software is so abysmal that you couldn’t pay me to use it.
Work sent me an iPhone 14 for testing because I already had an Android phone, can’t think of any other reason to own one other than 1) somebody else paid for it and 2) you need one for work.
Look, we are not the target demographic for Apple.
Only dummies!
Sent from my iPhone 16

Why would any one spend one month of minimal wage in a phone, especially considering the trend to boycott made in US.
I am ready to believe that iPhone are great but no way I spend that much money for a phone
got an iphone 15 last year. will be quite a few years before i buy another phone. I keep it until they no longer support it. (so far haven’t had one die before that point)
I still use a Pixel 3. Out of support, out of updates, idc.
Newer phones suck so badly I don’t know what I’m going to do when this one breaks, maybe go back to that era where we didn’t have phones, or just a dumb phone. Fuck this shit.
Can’t argue with that.
I run a business. Can running a business without a smart phone be done? Yes. Is it a pain in the ass in today’s world? Hell yes.
Oh shit, yeah, I’m so sorry you’re being held hostage by these companies. Can’t realistically avoid that for the most part, sadly - you’ll have to keep your phone updated.
I prefer to not lose access to my VPNs when the nazis in power is trying to censor the internet. (Apple already pulled VPNs from the China and Russia AppStores, they could do the same to the US)
Android is from Google, how come would they behave differently if the US government was to require US corporations to act in a certain way?
That may be a silly question (?) but I really don’t understand why it matters with an iPhone and not an android phone that they’re US?
You could install apps via .apk files, so it doesn’t matter what google does to their “Play Store”.
Oh, thx a lot for the clarification :)
I stopped buying Apple products over 20 years ago. Got tired of proprietary hardware/software. And as Rick Sanchez once said: “That thing had uptight Zen snob germs all over it.”
There’s 16 iphones ? that’s probably 17 too many
