>>56284482
They do it every single time they release a new one, so yea obviously it's intentional.

>>56284521
this

Apple has a habit of releasing questional software right before a newer release occurs, they've been doing it since the first video iPods when they would purposely write code that slows down the hardware, breaks a feature or induces a total failure of the product.

so sad. the ipodtouches were so fucking good back then.

Just like the iPhone 4 power button issue. Pay apple a shitton to fix it or get a new phone.

>>56284482
Not sure what you are referring to OP, but I remember with the 1st iphone (in my country at least) which was the 3G, once the 3GS came out and they rolled the ios update, it became slightly slower.

Once the update for the 4 came out, it became barely unusable.

What apple managed to accomplish doing that wasn't me buying a newer model. It was switching boats with the firm intention to never switch again.

GG morons.

>>56284682
>>56284521
you guys make it out like it's something more deliberate than software developers no longer targeting their product for the hardware in question. you can't accuse apple of being incompetent, buffoons, etc... in making iOS and then also accuse them of being hyper-competent villains, deliberately sabotaging their own product to sneakily coerce people into upgrading. it's not even internally valid, let alone consistent with any hard evidence (or even persuasive circumstantial evidence).

>There is no way that thing just happened randomly

>>56285276
>>56285327
Lmao.

I'm employed on a corporation that spans most of my country and latin america.

My factual evidence is that when a new ishit comes out and there's a software upgrade, it almost brick your old device.

>>56285854
your factual evidence is leading you to make a conclusion that's not supported by the evidence. if i pointed to your shitty english skills and said "that proves it - he must be retarded", you would probably point out that i was taking one data point and drawing a convenient, but unwarranted, line from that data point to the conclusion i want to draw.

ishit phones becoming slow and horse shit don't prove anything except that apple's engineers don't give any fucks about making sure that iOS works well on any device that has been succeeded by another device. you have to understand that there's a difference between no longer giving a shit and actively bricking it.

No longer giving a shit is the same as actively bricking it in my book. They release an update without checking if it'll interfere with older devices. Why? Because there's a new one out.

The best thing an Apple user can do is to sell an iPhone and get a Samsung, an S7 if you can, it can be used for years and also you can mod it as you want.

If this is proof of planned obsolescence how come the graphic goes down? It should go up and stay up. It looks like implementation issues.

There has never been actual proof that apple makes old devices slow on purpose. There are many people out there perfectly happy with the performance on their iPhones 5/5s even though they are 4 year old.

Isnt apple still supporting some 2007 iMacs/Macbooks today? Its one of their selling points and it costs them very little, they arent going to stop doing it.

>>56291316

You are either really retarded or simply trying to avoid that the problem is those huge spikes aligning with the releases of new iphones. The fact that the line goes down after each spike indicates that users are upgrading to newer models and/or simply decide to bear the lag. The fact that most tech illiterates immidiately upgrade to the newer model just because "DUDE NEW IPHONE LMAO" makes such a thing easier to pull off. Also

Is this some kind of elaborate ruse? You're just proving his point.

>>56291626
I'm not talking about manufacturing defects. The manufacturer not using a simple and cheap technique like underfilling or putting shielding over the ICs like they did on the previous model especially when the subject is a mobile device is not the same as a product being faulty because of a worker doing sloppy work.

This is a design flaw and the fact that they used shielding on the iphone 5 whereas they didn't use shielding nor underfill on the iphone 6 is enough to raise doubts.

>>56291681
Im sorry but you are assuming that they are all upgrading to newer models? That is just stupid. Just look at the percentage of iPhones 5/5s in use.

If you knew something about technology you would understand what happens when a new OS is released. Memory leaks, optimization issues, bugs etc that might make your device slow, specially since we are talking about the older models here. Same thing would happen with android if all devices had synced updates.

>>56291785
Phones that aren't iShit don't have this problem. :^)

>>56291681
>you are assuming that they are all upgrading to newer models

No, I am not. They are either upgrading to different models(ios or android) or simply deciding to bear with it after they realize that there isn't much that they can do about their phone lagging on the newer OS after doing some research(cause of the spikes). Of course the line is going to go down after a huge spikes, the userbase of old devices becomes smaller gradually and the "DUDE NEW IPHONE LMAO" mentality also accelerates this.

>b-but a new OS lagging is normal
>backpedaling this much

You can use marshmallow on an S3 without lag. Some custom ROM made in some random guy's free time running well on a device that's 3 years older than the ROM itself but a new OS created by a huge company's paid developers not running well on a device that's also 3 years older than the OS itself isn't acceptable in my book.

>>56292595

No system updates doesn't not mean that new apps are not compatible, unlike apple trash
I can still install every basic app on my 2012 phone running CM11 but almost nothing is compatible/working with my ipod touch 4 from 2011

>>56291976
You are absolutely retarded. There is zero proof of any of you said. Anyone that understands how a implementation of a new OS works would say that this is what is happening here. You have 0 evidence that people are buying newer phones. Most iPhones in use today are older models. If the spike goes down its because the issues got fixed.

You know how they got fixed? Software updates. Thats right. I know poor people dont even know that exists because they use android. But that is how it works.

Jesus fucking Christ, your hate for Apple is so irrational that you seriously think they've planned this shit? How would that even make sense? You do realize that Apple will have to repair them for free if this is a widespread defect, right?

What exactly supports any of your claims?

You have zero evidence for anything.

Like I said about that graphic, its stupid to assume the spike goes down because people are buying new devices since there are more old devices in use than newer devices.

This literally happens to every new major OS updates on release. Why are you denying this? Optimization issues get fixed with updates, that is why the spikes go down so quickly. If this was planned obsolescence than all old iPhones would be slow, which is not the case. iphone 5/5s/6 are all working fine.

I want to very kindly and friendly remind you that this company IS THE HIGHEST VALUED COMPANY ON EARTH. EVER

You don't reach that level of market cap as a production company without any planned obsolescence in your strategy.

you never know, maybe Apple is reading your thoughts too?

>>56292849
they design everything with their core marketing strategy in mind,

everything else gets a backseat to the planned obsolescence, fashion accessory approach to selling Chinese garbage for great profit margins

I think Apple's decline lies in the fact that the market is getting too saturated in features to keep them relevant. They're also not keeping the fashion accessory aspect of their devices in check. Too many lines are due for redesigns. These redisgns should be happening way more often to keep consumertards buying the newest iteration. How are you supposed to pretend to be rich with your newest ishit when the old one looks almost exactly identical?

I think Apple has deluded itself into thinking the hardware they make is actually good and that they don't need frequent aesthetic changes to stay relevant. This is why their stock has been a wild ride lately.

Does anyone else remember when Apple was holding iPhone stock in their warehouses to artificially reduce supply so they could charge the initial round of consumers more?

What a great and honest company.

>>56292832
By your logic the line wouldn't go down if the issues were supposedly fixed. People don't start doing research every day when they have a problem with their device.

Also you can't say that it isn't planned obsolescense if some newer old devices aren't affected yet. The manufacturer could as well start to gimp devices after their age passes a certain number to avoid raising doubts. Also bugs that are sorted out after the release aren't an excuse for a huge company like apple. I'm pretty sure a company like apple can actually make sure that their software doesn't suffer from issues that affect performance and can be fixed before actually releasing updates.

You need to qualify that education correlates with intelligence. At this time in America, the only solid thing you can say about education without citing sources is that education is exorbitantly expensive. Given that, is it that educated people are intelligent and therefore use iPhones, or is it that they don't know of how to manage their money well? You say nothing of debt, which is pertinent to the conversation. We already know America's economy is a debt based one.

You're really making a better case for America being a consumerist culture than iPhones correlating with some kind of moral value.

>>56293061

Combine that with the fact that IOS has less than half of the market share of android amd you get an economically diverse userbase. Most people are poor so it's self explanatory. Continue thinking that your sub $1000 device makes you rich if it makes sleeping at night any easier.

Enjoy.

I must concede that I always find it funny when you all refer to people who always buy the new iPhone as "tech illiterate".

I am by no means an Apple fan but me and my family all use their products BECAUSE THEY WORK.

What people on this board (and myself years ago) consider tech illiterate is in fact people with so much money and valuable time that they don't want to dedicate hours of their lives looking this shit up. It's very important that you understand this. High calibre people would rather pay pajeets like everyone on this forum to dick around for them and then just buy the most functional, attractive, and useful product regardless of cost. Who cares about money? It works, it works well and it has constant support worldwide.

Do you get it yet? You are all pajeets here, bickering over chinkphones and whatnot because your time is so invaluable that you can dedicate it thusly. If you were serious business you'd have an iPhone and a MBP because it makes doing business as easily as possible. Lastly, you all should be striving to leave this pajeet life and get to a point where you too are pursuing projects so valuable that you simply need the best technology to facilitate that regardless of price.

If you're not buying the newest one every release you're obviously poor. It's really disgusting to see anyone with a last gen device to be completely honest.

>>56284482
Can you prove that? Because if it is intentional someone will prove it. And then Apple has a massive class action and will lose all public trust.

>>56293401
Why?

Buying a new device every year is retarded. Hardware power on phones is already stagnated, they deliver more than enough power do to anything a phone needs to do.

As long you are receiving software updates there is really no longer need to buy a new phone every year anymore. This is why android is a joke, after a year you are stuck on this outdated software.

Why would you use Apple if you're not using the latest hardware? It screams poor. Resale is so high that you can sell a last gen to some retarded icuck and buy the newest one. Why would I sit on hardware that's getting stale and worry about what an update is going to do when I can keep getting the newest line?
Keeping any Apple hardware that is not current gen is for the mentally retarded or poor (that statement is perhaps redundant)

Are you serious? Of course an old as fuck device is going to run newer software like shit. Does that really surprise you?

I have an iPhone 5 and an iPod Touch 5.

I am more concerned about performance though.

>>56293635
Meanwhile an S3 can run 6.0.1 normally with the help of custom roms. I would also expect a company with a net worth of more than $600 billion dollars to be better at developing software for older phones rather than random guys at XDA.

But the s3 is just as old as the iPhone 5.

And the iPhone is still getting official support. Way better than currymod.

You also can perform miracles. iOS9 runs badly on the A5 devices because the hardware is bad. Is not a matter of apple behind bad a porting it. Like I said, it runs fine on the iPhone.

>>56293007

the processes and how 'fast' it runs doesn't bug me. it's just a phone lol. text, fb, call, google duo etc. i'm just saying despite the processes in the background it doesn't seem to be sluggish nor have bad battery life.

that's literally garbage they don't even pickup off the curve

you would have to pay someone to take that so that it can be disposed properly at a recycling center

>>56294006
Like I said, 4s has terrible hardware (a5). Its a 2011 phone ffs. Its not a matter of apple making it slow on purpose. iOS 9 runs perfectly on iPhone 5 which is from 2012.

>only one clock

>>56294380
The S3's hardware is also terrible in comparison to current phones. Also I'm talking about ios8 not ios9. Comparing an 4S running ios9 with a S3 running marshmallow would be unfair as the 4S would be running an OS that's more than 3 years older than itself unlike the S3.

Well meme'd.

I'm sure that explain all of the market anayalst shitting bricks because smartphones are lasting longer then 2

What a bliss must it be to get brainwashed into shilling Apple so fiercely.

Even iOS 10 runs smoothly on iPhone 5

>>56293635
>t. Pajeet

Planned obsolescence is real, no doubt, but this is more of an issue of horrible quality control, pajeets/sloppy third world coders being in charge of development, female coders because 'muh equality', no one auditing them properly in favor of deadlines, etc, etc,

iOS has been in serious decline since a couple of years before Stece Jopps passed, but now it's reaching exponential levels of shittiness... I mean, just look at the iOS 10 features... The future of iOS is lag city, even on the "latest tech" iPhones...

Makes a nice change from the numerically fewer but more-frequently posting Linux shills.

>>56285264
Yes but applefags do not ever conceive a world where they do not have the latest apple product. To do so causes them great pain.

>>56299103
What are you even talking about? I see people everywhere with iPhones 5/5s/5c. Im pretty sure its still the most popular iPhone model.

>>56299103

The 5S is extremely popular, so popular that Apple went and made the SE, which is a 5S on the outside and a 6S on the inside. Which is pretty much the best thing ever.

>>56288701
its cool in a way - as long as the updates work well instead of slowing old functionality down and so on

my iPhone 5 was getting so damn laggy this year that I bought a goddamn $200 huawei honor to replace it.

there might be some hardware fault in the iPhone, I guess, as the problems were pretty weird, but if it was software induced... I'd respected Apple more for refusing such updates.

>>56286402
A Nexus you could mod all you want, but an s7 nope. Exynos variants are struggling to run CM 13 and Qualcomm variants have locked bootloaders.

>>56288701
Meanwhile, fucking pajeetsoft has managed to update my PC from 2009 with 2016 software. Yup VISTA->10

Botnet or not, what Apple does with iPhones isnt special.

>>56286223
epic, It's mostly people hearing about the new ones and then thinking their phone is slow, more of a psycological thing.
My 4s still runs smoothly

>people don't know how to maintain a device and when to reset their phone
>muh planned obsolescence

>>56302252
my iPhone 5 would occasionally refuse to do anything when trying to do something

like I'd type a sentence on IRC or whatsapp and nothing would happen, after some seconds there'd come some weird bunch of letters kinda resembling what I tried to type

I reset it and so on and so on; yet this kept happening

I'm assuming not every iPhone does this but fug u (unless mine was just a hardware problem, in which case I just had bad luck)

The icon of "Clock" is a clock too.

>TFW it doesn't take a rocket scientist to make custom ROMs to continue the support for the hardware

That's what you're buying when you buy a Android with the exception of flagships, youre paying for the hardware. i phones cost a shit ton more because you're paying for the customer support and tech support but apple gives you a big "fuck you" and you still buy a new 800 dollar phone and try everything you can to justify it. This "lagdroid" has never boot looped, has never had battery issues, has never had a screen issue, won't brick when you replace the screen (google "error 5 itunes" and rage), and I know how to install custom ROMs after the life cycle is done, a ROM that won't brick my phone or some shit a code monkey threw together, its actual working software.

>ellohhell so pajeet has malware on your phone

Is that why so many people do it? Its self explanatory, people do it because its easy and for about a hour out of your time, you can be set up

>but I don't want to spend a hour on my pho-

Shut the fuck up, you're going to back it up and use iTunes to factory restore it along with downloading the image. There is your fucking hour.

>>56303358
This. What people don't bother to mention is that you literally need to tether your phone to the PC, download the update via the slow ass iTunes app, and hope to hell it doesn't fuck itself up. I had an iPhone 4S for 3 years since it was released. It was and still is a piece of shit carrying the Apple logo, even if it is on the "latest software".

>>56303638
I worked on/sold phones for Sprint. I know all the games they play. Apple products are a fad, a dying one at that. Just look up iPhone sales for these last 2 quarters. I promise this iPhone is going to flop as well.

how funny, my sister's ipad 2 stopped working today, it won't turn on

>>56291976
>You can use marshmallow on an S3 without lag
I couldn't use marshmallow on my S3 for more than three days because of random reboots and crashes. formatted it and flashed cm11 back after I got a bootloop
