Apple or Android?

[Mr. L]

iPhones are basically for 3 kinds of people:

1. Teenagers as a fashion/popularity statement so they can "belong" and feel "cool"
2. Idiots/misinformed who think they're getting what they pay for (this applies to almost every Apple product)
3. People who have money to blow on ridiculously overpriced toys

Apple fans are sheep so they aren't really a 4th type. The only reason you should really have one is if you received it as a gift.

And before anybody replies with "BUT THEY JUST WERK", you can find an extensive list of phones that outperform the iPhone for a fraction of the price.

You're paying for a brand, not a $600 phone.

APPLE MASTERRACE.

I am definitely paying for a brand.

 

[BlooBelle]

I have an iphone, but I dunno why some people on either side insult each other. They're both just stupid cellphones, and they both pretty much do the same thing. They may have different features but it's silly to fight over that.

Masterrace implies Apple would have to be somehow superior.

So it's more like Apple peasant race

Oh boy, this is gonna be good.

 

[Mr. L]

Oh boy, this is gonna be good.

Usually I'd agree, but there's really nothing to argue about since Android is already proven to be superior. Apple is a joke.

I'm not disagreeing with you at all on that point. When buying an Apple anything you're just paying for the name, and a crap name at that; it's nothing more than overpriced garbage these days.

I just love how long this thread has gone on, how serious it's gotten, and how many iphone owners have all but dismissed the facts about both brands.

I guess all that buyer's remorse converts to ignorance against the superior product

I'd be in denial too if I found out somebody had a $200 phone that's better than my $600 iPhone. Until I realize that the iPhone is really less than $200 in parts and a $400 "premium" brand logo.

 

[KelseyHendrix]

Oh, there's a serious debate going on here.

I just like iPhones. It's my preference. You can get all of the options of an Android with jailbreaking.

I can understand a preference over the interface and OS, but that is just not true at all.

Ah, the memories.

Now with even more baiting!

You'd think people wouldn't get so salty over someone's opinion of a phone. But it is the internet.

 

[Reindeer]

People aren't getting mad at you because you like androids, we're getting mad at you because you're being a rude jackass.

This here. I gave my answer earlier in the thread (in which I pretty much also called Apple trash), but you're going a bit overboard, Mr. L.

 

[MozzarellaSticks]

Please do entertain me with what conclusion you've come up with from me using a phone i got as a gift.

Your personality and stance makes more sense to me now. You are clearly an experienced phone developer down on his luck who is cursed with having an inferior product only because it is better than a popular brand. All until you can invent the superior mobile operating system that will bring all to their knees.

 

[MozzarellaSticks]

Finally, someone with a sense of humour.

But I am an ignorant sheeple.

 

[KarlaKGB]

anyone like blackberry??

Used to have one, it was pretty neat with the physical keyboard and all, but nowadays Blackberries just can't compete with smartphones.

Apple bc someone sends me a Snapchat video on an Android phone and it looks musty compared to an iPhone

Android is so much more glitchy and slows down over time. Where as the iPhone does not.

Older iPhone models significantly slow down, lag, and are downright discontinued in new updates. There are plenty of cases of people saying Apple wouldn't even help them troubleshoot their older model iPhones. That's unacceptable.

I've had the same Galaxy S3 for over 2 years and have experienced no decrease in performance. If you mess up your phone, it's your fault. Android doesn't magically slow down and lag by itself, whereas Apple iOS updates have significantly decreased performance in their older model iPhones.
