Just a Windows/Linux/Mac user here, Macs genuinely get too much hate IMO, theres nothing really wrong with the Mac operating system, I wouldn't call their computer hardware overpriced either because you're paying for in house development of the OS as well as the hardware being nice in terms of build quality, keyboard layout, trackpad, screen resolution, battery life, high speed SSD's, etc. Macs are expensive but so is the Microsoft surface line, both are quality IMO sans the newest surface laptop, which I believe is overpriced compared to the overall hardware (not just internal components) but is merely my opinion.

That aside, they tend to support their hardware across all product lines for a decent amount of time, and their devices tend to hold more value for longer periods of time than other products. I personally think Samsung is much worse when it comes to planned obsolescence because curved screens are totally fucked when cracked, and their phones are usually only supported for a year or two with later updates slowing them down. As an avid unix/linux fanboy its disappointing to see Samsung controlling a market, everyone I know with new samsungs loves them, but everyone I know with 1-3 year old samsungs has a plethora of problems and constantly complains about them, stick to stock Imo, or get a Samsung that you can root.

At least iPhones get updates after 12 months. Sucks owning an Android phone you like that you have to replace because it is 2 years old and doesn't get security updates anymore.

I would have zero interest in replacing my current Android phone if it weren't the fact that it's stuck on Android 6.0 and will never get updated. Last security patch was an entire year ago.

If you are a power user, Android can be good by flashing custom ROMS, doing bunch of optimizations and some common sense

On iPhone, it just werks.. well for 2 years at least.

Right, the product is already shit to begin with, but you claim it isn't. That's why you're an iToddler.
>>
>>60468787
Well, most of Android updates are significant changes, and "maybe" reasonable enough to slow down the hardware a little.

The problem is, most won't get the updates, unless you're into flashing.

Also flagship android phones have cosmic level of hardware yet they get crippled after a year "without" any major updates (e.g. SAMSUNG)

So you're telling me that tens of millions of people every year willingly buy things they don't like? Nice delusion. Keep fighting on internet forums though Prakesh. Don't worry, Apple will build some component plant in India one day so you'll have a proper job.

Apple's numbers don't lie. Cry more.

So you're saying that Android phones are perfect and does not have any fault at all?

batteries exploding is not uncommon. but it's usually isolated cases. either with cheap batteries, or after a few years of use.

meanwhile, the samsung note 7 had actual battery issues causing it to catch fire more often than usual. there were like 100 reported cases a month after it came out already. and then even the "safe" replacement phones weren't safe. that's why samsung had to actually stop producing and selling their phone. urging everyone who got it to exchange their phones. and putting forced updates to limit how much you can charge the battery.

>>60470019
