Why is this even possible?

that's what you get for being a dumb phoneposter

>>62401611
Apple has gone into the deep-end.

Everybody has drunk the Kool-Aids, and there is nobody inside in high-enough place to call out the bullshit.

Even paid shill sites like The Verge are getting sick of it.

What's wrong with it? Sounds like a nice idea.

>>62401611
They can do whatever at this point seeing home people worship apple

>unconscious

It probably scans the iris too, so that wouldn't work.

Then it might work, but how would you do that?

No

Yes, over 80% of people in the smartphone market don't have any relationships.

But you cannot afford an iPhone, anon, and that's why you are shilling it on /g/

The amortized cost of a flagship is only a tad more than a budget phone's. The iPhone 6 and the Galaxy S5 are still getting updates, which makes their effective lifespan 4 years (divide their launch price by this number). The vast majority of budget trash does not get even a single update. "Budget flagships" like OnePlus are supported for at most 2 years. After that, you're forced to use Lineage, which comes with a degradation in camera quality, wonky Bluetooth, etc.
tl;dr - flagships are actually better value for money if you're not a consumerist whore

Some people want the "best" regardless of their use cases. While that isn't particularly wise to do with money, some people just don't care. You can't control them so it makes no sense worrying about it.

I bought a Galaxy S5 when it came out in 2014 and I still use it for a few hours everyday, but that's me. Everyone is different. Don't stress over it anon.

i can try, but if you just made this thread to bitch and whine then you're not going to be in a state of mind to be receptive to hearing why people other than you might be drawn to a flagship phone. are you prepared to accept some rationale even though it doesn't make you want one? because if you're not, then what you're really asking is for me to sell you on flagship phones, which isn't fair unless you're willing to tell us a lot more about yourself, and also maybe give me a reason to give any shits at all what you do.


>You're never going to use all the power you're paying for
virtually nobody in the world buys a car and then exploits all of the power available to them

>Almost all your fancy features are present a year later on budget phones
you have to buy a phone at some point. you can either buy a phone that'll be on par with budget phones in a year (and be obsolete in 3 years), or buy a phone that's a year further along on that life cycle on day 1 (i.e. a budget phone). some people would prefer to enjoy riding that wave of having modern tech for longer.

>Lets be honest, if you need an 800$ camera, you're going to buy an actual camera
you're not buying an $800 camera. you're buying an $800 device which has, among like a dozen other functions, a camera. if you're buying a flagship phone solely for the camera, then maybe you're in the wrong part of the store.

>Nowadays every decent higher-tier budget phone has a nice metal body
this just seems like a random thought. people aren't saying "finally, a phone with a metal body. this is what i was holding out for". it's just a nice thing to have.

every year /g/ says that apple has shot itself in the foot and that it'll be dead in a year or two years or whatever. and every year those idiots slink away into the shadows again so they can make their bullshit claims again the following year with impunity.

there's some shit in the iphone x that looks stupid, but i also thought the ipad was fucking stupid and when the iphone was first announced 10 years ago i thought the premise of a device that played music and took phone calls sharing the same battery was fucking stupid, and i have to admit that i was wrong. or at least, my finger wasn't on the pulse of everyday people.

>>62401169
Apple is like a luxury item welfare queens use to display it's rich.
Not matter what, always idiots will buy it because it's regarded as a premium jewelry

Why are you not straight?

Why does your package manager suck cock

>>62401002
(((they))) happened.

A company run by Japs got involved with keiks and decided to cater to Chinese, who are literally all so autistic that they need to see a flag of their country in a movie in order to want to go watch it.

Pander to the chinks, you end up like Canada.

>garbage hardware support
>garbage virtualization support
>shit package support
>linux layer is buggy as shit

The real question (genuine question desu senpai) is why not use smartos or openindiana.

>>62400883
I've always loathed BSD package management. Its like they went put of their way to make it as unintuitive as possible.

There's also less hardware support than Linux. It just seems to be an alternative for the sake of being an alternative.

>>62400883
I had it on my Thinkpad for a while but there's a recurring bug with X and sleep and my ATI chip which eventually causes a hang, so I switched to Devuan.

$70/ month

Can't complain. No data cap

Is it legal to not give advertised speeds? I get around the speed that is advertised (20mbps down 6mbps up) sometimes more, sometimes less, but not much.

>>62400856
That's what you get when you download over 1TB of Chinese cartoons every month.

It's not just /g/. Even """"""analysts"""""" like Gene Munster who actually get paid to prognosticate have been repeating the tired old "Apple is finished and bankrup!!1" every year like clockwork for the past 15 years.
Even Nate Aluminum has a better track record than these chucklefucks.

If you spend enough time on Windows to start hating it you either use it for work and switch to Mac or your a fucking Neet and you pop Linux onto it because you have nothing better to do.

you're right anon..... we should take over apple

Hardware stagnation.
You NEED a gimmick like animojis to move phones to normies, because we're reaching a point where form-factor and speed are pretty much set in stone across the industry for all devices.

Nobody cares if the new Apple processor has a clock speed two fingers faster than the old one if literally nothing takes advantage of it.

That's why Apple's "courage" and "revolution" went from introducing the modern smartphone/tablet standard and increasing screen resolution to outrageous levels (things that can be found everywhere now and are taken for granted) to fucking pencils and poop emojis that smile when you grimace, and removing the headphone jack.

The consumer is comfortable using 5+ year old hardware, and now innovation is relegated to whichever company can take that, add some fancy flair, lock it tight and sell the keys.

>>62400940
I still can't understand how people brought the 7 and now this trash with no headphone jack.

>>62400604
What about multiple tabs without freezing? Firefox can and chrome can't.

>>62400934
I never had this problem, I can open hundreds of tabs in both browsers with no issues. When I was on winshit10 having 2 youtube videos open would cause my noticeable lag, on arch 4.12 I could probably open 50 before I could tell I was lagging.
