  • What's the point of unlocking an iphone? Hi guys so i know people unlock their iphones because they want to change carrier but the locked iphones are sold for 200$ so would it be possible to buy a locked iphone in the us & unlock it in belgium? I mean wouldnt that save like 400$? That seems like an impossibly good deal but maybe i don't really get what a locked iphone is.
  • What is the point of Jailbreaking on iOS 8? Okay so I use to be very active in the Jailbreaking world when the iPhone 3gs and the original itouch were out and eventually I got out of the loop and even switched to android for a long time but now I'm back on iPhone, 6 to be specific, and I'm really wandering what is the point of the Jailbreaking in the current time. I'm not critizing it I'm honestly just asking out of curiosity to see if it's worth doing it on my iPhone.
  • What is the point of iMessage on the iPhone? I do not get it. It's "faster"? That's all I've heard. But ever since that feature was added my texts started randomly not going thru or not sending for a few minutes. A little at first but worse and worse and now probably every day. Why not just send it as a regular text anyway? So my messages can be in a pretty blue bubble?
  • What is the point of buying an iPhone 5 if you can get iOS 6? People say when you get iOS 6, you get to get all the features an iPhone 5 has, but if thats the case then why do you need an iPhone 5? Wouldn't it just be cheaper to buy a suckish iPod and get iOS 6?
