-GD-X★ 7,749 Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 I still love my 11. I probably won’t upgrade until the 14. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TLHBO 2,162 Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 I’m not surprised a sheep loves the iphone. Overpriced, hold your hand, walled garden kiddy garbage simplified for the lowest common denominator. Sounds a lot like Nintendo Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The 11 series had a bigger battery life than the 12 did, which annoyed me, but the 13s lasts 2.5 hours more than the 12. Worth it alone for that. 3 minutes ago, TLHBO said: I’m not surprised a sheep loves the iphone. Overpriced, hold your hand, walled garden kiddy garbage simplified for the lowest common denominator.

Market share of phones over $400: Admit it, you’ve had that ready to post for a while now :D Anyway I’m just trolling. I have an iphone but I do think I’ll be going back to Android next time. The iphone definitely has a better lifetime than android and the software still feels fresh and responsive years on but the walled garden and proprietary bs kills it for me. I think I’m gonna try a degoogled rom because the bloated spyware that is Google android is what I wanted to get away from in the first place. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Fair enough, I don’t mind the walled garden because my phone already does everything I need it to. If apple allowed outside downloads I doubt there would be anything I would even download.

Ike★ 2,913 Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 I still have an XR that’s chugging along. I have no need to upgrade. Apart from regular calls and texts I barely use my phone for anything other than Reddit. It still takes great pics and doesn’t look stupid with 3 cameras. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah I mean you can probably still get 2-3 years out of it with no issue. I upgrade because I do it for a minimum, I bought my 12 pro max and traded it in for the 13 which is fully paid off now after using some Best Buy rewards. Next year I’ll likely trade it in to go back on contract.. rinse and repeat Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DynamiteCop 2,087 Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 Expensive phones are for retards. The 99th percentile isn't doing anything with these devices that justifies either owning them or paying that much for them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ike★ 2,913 Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 iOS 15 has been a good update so far. I like the new Safari. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I just resold my 12 pro max (1100$) for 800 to Best Buy. samsung phones lose 50% of value the day they’re purchased.

Yeah, there is no point in upgrading flagship phones yearly anymore, other than tryhards and no-life Apple weirdos. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MalaXmaS 648 Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 I am happy with my Pixel 5, a phone that isn't overly too big, and does everything your iPhone 13 does for less than half the price. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Of course you do android users have to bc their os is such trash lol. Both apps run better on iOS too, not that we’d use them Quote Link to post Share on other sites
