How does the quote go? "Ignorance breeds fear. Fear breeds hate. Hate breeds violence. Education breeds confidence. Confidence breeds hope. Hope breeds peace..."

i started with mytouch then a g2 then iphone 4s i now have the iphone 6. it works great i have never had problems with it or the the one before.
i have noticed that every other company compares everything to the iphone or apple. like "bro you mad?" apple or die.

If you can't comprehend the fact that most Android boys ar big haters then you just fail like usual. Oh I bet you own an Android as well which would just prove my point.

But Apple users have no right to act as if it was a one-sided phenomena, because guess who started with the annoying attack marketing first. Remember this? And I do not use Android, thus your point is not proven. |

I believe that apple's theory and policy of simplicity is very future thinking.
Back when the cpu for household use was taking off... i had to explain very many things to many older people about how it works constantly. My perspective at that time was that this is a learning curve and you'll either catch up or get left behind. That perspective was shared by many people. Learn or get left behind. What apple has done is help bridge the gap for those people. Its like they created a technology gateway drug. Now these people that could barely figure out a mouse are now facebooking amd instagraming with the best of us. I think we should instead hate on everybody else... they were content with making the older generations either learn a completely abstract concept with little help or shiver in the shadows of technological obscurity. |

The other fact is you will always have "an older generation behind the curve". People act like kids with technology today are different. The reality is that Granny who can't use smartphone was once trained and proficient with cutting edge technology. The wonder machines of her youth included automatic typewriters, fax machines, data punchcard entry, adding machines, photocopiers etc. Kids that are rooting androids and all that crap will one day be old and going "God damn those Windows 65!! To damn complicated!" Most people...almost everyone, is not as tech savvy as we think. Sure you can root and install a new operating system, crack a video game and copy a blue ray.... All by following the instructions online. Few people can actually write the code and software to do these things. |

But thats the genius of apple... they realized this and made it a market where they have a captive audience. Everybody else just said something along the lines of "learn it, love it or screw off" But alas i think most of apples genius may have died with jobs. |

Apple turned me away some years back when their computers made a come back. My first experience with a computer was Apple, back in the late 1980s when I was in elementary school. I loved this new toy i was exposed to and rainy days at school were actually something I looked forward to. Once I moved on to Junior High Apple seemed to have disappeared and since then I became used to working with Windows. By about the late 1990s or early 2000s when the iMac came out I actually considered it until I found out you need to have Apple this to work on the iMac, or Apple that to work on the iMac. At that time there were fewer options then there are today to get Apple computer accessories. You were mainly limited to buying from Apple and that was a HUUUUGGGEEEE turn off as opposed to being able to go to any electrical store and pick up any (lets say for example) memory stick. Not with Apple computers, there were fewer options and you had to make sure, then double and triple check what you were buying was in fact Apple compatible. Now-a-days there are countless companies making products for Apple software that you dont have to go buy from Apple. Still, i've been so used to Windows and their even larger market for accessories that I just don't care to want to learn how to use an Apple computer. I've fiddled with them at the stores and, yes indeed, I rather stick with Windows. Same applies to their phones, except i've heard this new phone will allow you to change the battery so I might be open to perhaps one day get an Apple phone, but for now the only thing from Apple I own is an ipod I bought some 5 years ago.
One other reason why I steer away from Apple is they're the front runners of producing useless technology (junk) products and I just don't want to be associated as one of the "suckers" that fell for the bait. The tablets are useful in some cases with some people, but I honestly believe that for the most part those things are useless for most everyone. I'd never trade my 17 inch laptop for that tiny thing i have to hold with one hand which leaves one hand free to work with, and I'd never be caught looking dumb holding such large device up in the air when I can have a camera the size of my hand to take pictures with. These things just don't seem practical for the average Joe. |

Though it is valid in the sense that really most Apple fans do not really run around hating on Android . While there seems to be a plethora of people in the Android camp dissing IOS and IPhones at any given moment. The word should be shut the fuck up enjoy your phone and move along. I do see anti Iphone ads from Samsung I don't see anti Samsung ads from Apple. It does make for a perspective like the OP's to surface.

I use both OS, have many PCs and macs. Still prefer my Macbook over all.
I'm not here to debate, but I do have ONE thing to say. You CAN right click... ...why does everyone think you cant?

The act of leaning how something works is a skill set all by itself. Plasticity is evolving in human nature, and there are "signs" in the day to day changes in electronics as we knew them. The ravine of technology is too deep for any individual, no matter what your educational background. |

Honestly, all the people crying and bitching make me want it more.

I will say one thing about my galaxy S5. I dropped it from the 22nd story all the way down to the 13th story. Straight down. Slammed into a metal scaffold, you know the temporary platforms on job sites. It was in a otter box. Not one scratch, crack, malfunction, chip or anything. All it did was turn itself off lol. Not sure if that is android quality or just the otter box. But god damn it I was impressed. So was everybody else lol. I just watched it helplessly floating down for like 3-5 seconds. Landed straight on the face and didn't even bounce or roll. Probably what saved it, spread the impact through the whole phone rather than one corner.

Lol I've worked for apple for 5 years now. And to be honest I've been kinda a pessimist for 3 out of the 5 years I've worked there. i love the product line up now.. Iphone 6 is pretty damn nice for the most part works when I need it to and it shoots amazing video and I can edit pretty damn easy with iMovie on my iPhone... My MacBook is awesome they simply give you great editing tools like iMovie and garage band practically for free... Yes some of the people are rather do I say special.... But dudes I seeously made this whole movie on my iPhone and edited it in iMovie!!!

i can do way more on an android. simple as that.
iPhones feel very 'restricted access', less customization, less apps, less flexibility, plus they want you to buy apple shit thats way overpriced. and everyone i know with an iPhone starts bitching about how theirs is slow/breaking from the new update, hmm maybe they're trying to pull another few hundred outta you for that new iphone. I just feel like when I use an iPhone, I'm using a fisher-price dumbed-down version of android. android phones seem to be alot more durable than iphones, case or no case. more options with android as far as different phones go. |

If you're an Android user, all Apple users are wrong.
If you're an Apple user, you don't care what Android users are doing/have.

So I upgraded to iPhone 6. Whatever, fuck you
I like it so far. Taking pictures in burst mode and slow mo is cool. The phone it's self looks great but it's a little bit to big for my hands but I'll make it work. But watching YouTube videos and plying games on it is great for the size of the screen I just really really wish it had swype text or something similar |
