Smartphones are tools for you to get shit done that you need. All apps exist for iOS first if not better versions for it. And you get a total package of performance camera and sleek device for $400.

If you are better served by something cheaper with android then get it. This debate has been over for a long time.

Fuck off shill. Both iOS and Android are shit when it comes to security and privacy, the main difference is that with the latter you can at least avoid most of Google's botnet at the expense of convenience by using open alternatives. That's all there's to it.

iOS had over 200 code execution vulnerabilities in 2015 alone: https://www.cvedetails.com/product/15556/Apple-Iphone-Os.html?vendor_id=49

>>56211748
Are we being raided by marketers or what? iPhones cost way more than $400 and have inferior cameras to high-end Android phones than cost less.

Your reading comprehension is shit, mate. I think Google is an evil company and people should avoid being tracked by them. Which is something you can more or less achieve with some Android phones, whereas with Apple you're tightly tied to the botnet forever.

I'll put it in terms your retarded shill brain can understand: APPLE IS SHIT. GOOGLE IS SHIT. Most people who buy expensive smartphones are stupid and paying premium for their own surveillance. Now kill yourself.

I've used many Android phones over the years (HTC G2, Note, Note II, Note 3, Note 4, LG G3, LG V10, HTC One M8, etc.) and I love Android but it's typically a piece of shit. iPhones are probably the most well-balanced phone you can buy, other than maybe newer Samsung phones. They have good cameras, good audio quality, good battery life, amazing (though pretty locked down) software. If you're not gonna do anything super nerdy on your phone I see no reason to not buy an iPhone.

>>56212364
>>56212420
It's true though.

With that said, I would still like to see RAM quantities on par with flagship Android devices, so that the iOS optimization is 100% undeniably obvious even to wann-be-neckbeards who use Android and Windows because APPLE IS BAD OVERPRICED DOESNT LET YOU CUSTOMIZE, TECHNOLOGY IS ABOUT VIDEO GAMES AND RICING

>>56212609
I said nerdy, like complex apps, rooting, command-line type shit, etc. If you're just gonna take photos and listen to spotify and want a nice phone that just works and will probably still be usable in 2-3 years then an iPhone is the way to go, most Android phones are completely outdated and recieve no software updates after 2 years, yet my friends iPhone 5 which came out in 2012 runs quicker than my LG V10. But there are reasons I stick with Android phones.

Android is ok when you're poor and immature using it for: ricing for fun, sharing files like a good criminal and generally acting like a cYboR haCK3r with your redundant file browser and cli on a phone. Once you graduate to grown-up, non-neet status you get a comfy iPhone.

- No microSD slot is a big deal with the low amount of storage iPhones have (and you want more, you have to pay a ridiculous amount).
- iPhone screen has literally objectively a lower pixel density than much cheaper Android phones. This is a fact, you can't argue against numbers.
- Camera is worse or at, best, equal to cheaper phones like the S7, 6P or the OP3.
- Battery life is not very good: http://www.gsmarena.com/battery-test.php3
- iOS is not a good OS, it's very bad security-wise. Haven't you seen the CVE link posted earlier? A good OS is secure. It's also locked down and lacks basic customizability.
- No native file browser is stupid.
- Not being able to use a phone as a flash drive is stupid.
- iTunes is fucking shit and that alone is a big drawback.
- Limited sharing is bad.
- Limited multitalking is bad.
- Fewer apps is bad. No, they are not more "current or secure".
- Encryption is so good the FBI can break it without Apple's help (that we know).

Most people just want the developer to focus on superb usability and security instead of niche features.

>- No microSD slot is a big deal with the low amount of storage iPhones have (and you want more, you have to pay a ridiculous amount).
I'll give you that, having to deal with seperate storage locations is just so not Apple. I personally have no issues paying a buck a month for 50GB of storage for all my photos, videos and files that sync pretty nicely. All my music's in Apple Music.
>- iPhone screen has literally objectively a lower pixel density than much cheaper Android phones. This is a fact, you can't argue against numbers.
Sure, but seriously, who gives a shit. Higher res means higher battery usage and it's just not needed on a phone optimised for use at about a foot away. This
>- Camera is worse or at, best, equal to cheaper phones like the S7, 6P or the OP3.
Maybe, but the software making the camera easy to use means everything. No-one else does it as well.
