Why do people care so much if you have an iPhone?
I'm perfectly aware that there are substantive technical differences between different types of phones. But as far as my subjective user experience is concerned, it's all the same. I'm not doing anything all that sophisticated with my phone on a daily basis. I'm running some basic apps to manage my social media presence and looking up trivial minutiae on the internet to win petty arguments with my brother.
So, from my perspective, any basic smart phone is suitable to my needs. While I'm sure that Apple and Android fans can both make fine points regarding the pros and cons of the various phones and OS's, I'm not particularly invested in that debate since my needs are so basic.
This of course raises the question, if my needs are so basic, why did I get an iPhone instead of something more bare bones. The answer is simply that it's the phone my brother has, and he attested to it's reliability and stability, things which were sorely lacking in my previous
I never knew that these allegiances were so deep, to me Android or Apple doesn't freaking matter. It's all the same BS. I just like the iPhone 6s better. F off! I'm not a Apple fanboy, I could very well get sick of it and go back to Android in the future, I have no loyalty one way or the other.
None of my friends and family care about what phone I own. They know that I have used a prepaid cell phone carrier for years and only purchase cheap prepaid smartphones.
- You are currently not allowed to use this service. Please contact customer care support. Msg 2126 is what my sprint iPhone says people can? Still call me but I can't call them or text them if they don't have iPhone what does this mean?
- Why people like iPhones? I can't never get people who like iphones to give a good reason, why? Some say it easy, but a lot have no clue on how to use their own phones. Can someone explain something useful that great about iphone? Everything they think is special other phones have been doing for years.
- Why do so much people have iphones? I see iphones everywhere i go, everywhere i go. I saw at least 5 of them today. There are so many smartphones out there that are way better and are basically the same thing, so why iphone? And NO i'm not jealous of them cuz i have a smartphone myself. It looks like an iphone but its better quality and has more features, cheaper, etc.
- Why do poor people care more about their image and buying nice clothes than feeding their family or paying bills? I see tons of poor people who make less than 20k a year spending their entire income on nice clothes and shoes and purses and makeup. Their children are starving they can't even afford to use the air conditioner or pay for electricity but they absolutely need to buy a new iPhone or a new pair of high heels
