I am saying my opinion and personal experience. If I didn't get any issues with Android you think I'd go with Apple? No. For me, personally, of all the experiences I've had with Android, it sucks. You can attack Apple all you want but unlike you, I will not call you names, because that's very dumb. If Android works for you, then all's good. Just stop forcing people to like what's best for you because it will always be different for everyone else. That's where you need to learn the meaning of respect. Cheers.

But that so called "perfection" (hardly!!!) would not be their if real companies would not innovate, now would it? You call that perfection? I call that stealing others hard work, millions spend in research, then put 3 euros into them to look like they did something. Then sell for 100% more then it should cost. So much for perfection. As for this word, you probably do not understand it, so when you encounter those bugs you think: well, is perfect, this is what it was supposed to do. I wander how you feel when you hit your head on limitations at every second you use it. While others use their "imperfect" devices the way they want without 1 hour of hacking something everywhere they go. But well, for some people, a device that it's expensive and does nothing but the basics, not even those, is perfect. Ignorance really is bliss.

                      Apple is just one of the many companies in the world and no one has forced anyone into buying any of its products. Period.

                      I've been using iPhone as my primary driver since 2011, and I honestly believe Apple is not much of an innovator. They are more of perfecting current technology. That's what they do. They make what's available even better. That's why Android fans always say about an Apple feature: it's an old technology and Apple is only introducing it now blah blah. Yes, it is not new technology. But the quality? Perfect. I'd rather have old technology but trusty and reliable than new innovations but laggy and buggy.

Everybody who hates apple, hates it not cause it exist, but because they spread the greed so far in peoples mind, their are now, as you said. 1 million devices and nothing to choose from. Almost everybody copied apple's way of doing business. Ask more give less, the sheep's will follow. Actally apple managed in 2007 to prove again how dumb people can be. Sold a piece of plastic with a touchscreen and a button that could not do nothing but email. Had no store had no apps and called it the first smartphone. And everybody got thrilled. Now, when a company sees something like this, well, why invest in innovation when you can sell a empty bucket with 1000€ just cause it has a name;)? This is why people do not like apple. At least, the smart ones. They truly destroyed innovation, brought down the fight to bring something new, fight to show how cool you are and the market it self, pricing their crappy devices way to high. Leading to others doing the same. Yeah, the tech world has something to thank to apple. Expansiveness for nothingness!

Touchscreen smartphones were way before apple thought about making such devices;). All they did was taking the innovation and advertising the hack out of it, yeah propaganda is bliss for apple, without it, they would be probably dead by now. But well, the truth is Microsoft does not want that, at the end, M.S saved them 3 times from bankruptcy.

                                    Thanks GSM, it is always nice to have a little history and insight now and then. To think computers and mobiles have only been around in mainstream for such a short time really. With progression and science advancing at an ever increasing pace, We can only but imagine the future. Ultimately a mobile was for convenient calls and keeping in touch.
                                    To a point, it would be nice sometimes for a little less use in society as so many people are addicted to technology. . . but the usage and hardware is enjoyable.

                                    For me life should be colourful and as fun as we can make it. Sadly, so much of a follow mentality is out there, creating more of the same same.

                                    So for the future of mobile devices I would like to see a liberal use of personality, colour and class. Maybe even the debut of a bold, striking, new classic that we can fondly attribute to todays times. What else is possible . . . .
