In all the different automotive forums around the globe, the iPhone vs. other phones is always hot debate.
And it ALWAYS starts arguments between members! Heres the thing, if you like it and can afford it, buy it, if you don't, well you know what to do! Buy Android!

It's funny how android users constantly complain about apple users being hipster douchebags yet they always seem to be the loudest and first to throw insults. Why do y'all all have some sort of weird superiority complex? It's a fucking phone, don't be so insecure.

http://www.prnewswire.com/news-relea...300471167.html Apple - 43.9% Samsung - 28.9% Android - 54.0% Apple - 43.9% This number will probably be closer when they pull the numbers in Jan. You can see that Apple is still destroying Samsung.

Palm and Blackerberries were NOT anything close to an iPhone. I am old enough to have owned Blackberry, Palm, the Blackjack....all of those were utter shit, which is why they don't exist anymore. |

Which part is confusing to you guys?? Nm Florida and gators all I needed to read.
Yes android does have a bigger market share but how many companies use android and not apple ios? One has more cash flow than the US Treasury and others just try since no one has close to 100% market share in any industry, thats capitalism. The palm, blackberry, and the sidekick? Lol. Which one of those is smart to you? Apple had a functioning web browser, apps to create and customize your own phone to be unique from others. Maybe not the ios but who's a hacker and who reads step by step how to's to pretend to be one. The design itself was a game changer, what was inside but the real smartphone. Not one that is used for business only and one that the teens use to have their own sidekicks instead of an invisible friend. Just talk about apple or the new phones or products instead of trying to change the topic to whos is better. Depends on the person but everyone i know, the majority of them own iphones.

Yes they didn't create the watch, or desktop, or phone but they just did it in a way that thru marketing and quality the products do sell. So many talk bad about the phone but why do they keep selling so much if that was the case? Marketing and advertising does a lot but to do it over 10 years with out losing but gaining more customers does mean it works well for people. You are allowed to return the product as well but only one that do are ocd people that are mad about one way it does an operation, ive heard of a complaint that there is no back button for the phone...only the stubborn people will return for such a reason. Its not hard to figure out a new ios or even idrive, it might take a bit to follow the procedure but once you do its done in a split second!
Even the 4 series designer moved to audi and copied the design and made the 5 series with just the front grill and taillights to match the brand, they look similar but no one compares the looks just the performance. Copy or creator if it works you will still buy the product.

With all the money I made owning Apple stock I can justify the price of this phone. Also, I'm trading in my iPhone 7 plus so this phone only costs around $700 bucks for the 256 gig model.

That said, fuck the iPhone X. If I were forced to upgrade right now I would choose the S8. Apple has nothing on the competition anymore. Especially if you consider the X is the design of future iPhones. There goes that "aesthetics" thing Apple sheep harp on about. Right now, go do a side by side comparison on Apple's website between the 6s, 7, and 8. Try to justify why a 7 or 8 is worth it over the 6s. Furthermore, if you have a 7 and rush to pay for an 8 (excluding those, like me, who have the upgrade option every year program), you're a straight up moron and my opinion is if you rush to pay for a X, you should've gone with a S8. Hell, if I hadn't run out of storage on it, I would still have my 5s in hand... |

Not to mention, Apple absolutely destroys Android in benchmark and real world performance. You see the benchmarks for the A11 Bionic? Thing is a monster. RAM management is still a joke for Samsung. |

I disagree. Benchmarks don't mean shit. The Axx chip is always pointing to benchmarks, but I haven't seen an iPhone yet that proves real-world that it actually makes a damn bit of difference. Really? Wow. iPhone's hiccup all the damn time. Why is that? |

I began using Apple computers when using a computer became part of music composition and production. Back then nobody serious used a PC to make music. Essentially the decision to go Apple instead of Windows was made for me back then but decades later I am really happy with the way things played out.
I am no Tim Cook fan at all but for it would be straight-up dumb for me to use anything other than an iPhone. I own numerous Apple TVs, iPads, iPhones, a MacBookPro, an iMac, an Apple Watch, and a set of AirPods... all of which I am very fond of. Anything not participating fully in the Apple ecosystem is at a huge disadvantage to me. I've refused more than one free Amazon Echo/Dot saying "sorry Alexa, Siri is my girl!" I'm concerned how long the wait is going to be before getting an iPhone X in hand. It took 6 weeks to get a damn set of AirPods!
