Now, I Want To Talk About the New iPhones
Good afternoon,
Earlier today, Apple announced that they will be releasing the new Apple Watch (which I might just buy), and not one, but three new iPhones. The big one is more up my alley, and I'm going to get one. That's not really my complaint: Why no small phone? I know that a smaller, cheaper phone would suit my parents, and my brother and sister use the SE, as well. An SE2 makes more sense than that stupid iPhone XR, that's for sure.
Oh, and they needed an iPad update, and better Airpods. Other than that, it was an interesting distraction from the problems I am having at work.

Re: Now, I Want To Talk About the New iPhones
I'm curious, but not convinced iPhone is for me. Looking towards next Galaxy (S10?) as my probable next upgrade.

They have been ruining the computer industry for years. If only they would disappear. Life could go back to normal.
I'll expand on this. Engineer a fucking computer you can fix, upgrade, and expand. WITH SCREWS. Goddamn assholes.

Re: Now, I Want To Talk About the New iPhones
I like apple due to 2 reasons.
1. the eco system.
2. apple operating system OSX is far far superior to windows from a user perspective.

I like to plug my phone into external speakers from time to time, also I use the aux. port on my car stereo all the time. I hate bluetooth.
Seriously, Apple can fuck themselves away with this one.

I've backed away from full blown apple hatred but your continuing rage is admirable, Redeyes

Re: Now, I Want To Talk About the New iPhones
I heard this morning that two of the new phones will cost 1K+ ?
Wasn't there a big stink about discontinuing the iPhone X because it cost a thousand dollars and no one wanted to pay that for a goddamn phone?
The lack of a home button is retarded IMO

I like iPhones so I can be trendy and shit on all the obviously poor people with their poverty androids. The superiority I feel gives my life meaning.

The way I look at it, I can save my money or I can spend it all. Nobody can see how much money you have saved up, but they can see all of your stuff as proof of your excellence.
Android just proves you make shitty life decisions.

Re: Now, I Want To Talk About the New iPhones
The best iphone was the 4s - 5s in terms of how solid they were made. They have gone down in quality in terms of production, and have stayed relatively flat in terms of technology.
We're all getting played and I pretty much hate the telecom industry (mostly service providers) with a passion. yes yes yes... I use telecom like the good little privileged capitalist beneficiary that I am. It still sucks as semi-monopolistic industry.

I'm still rocking an iPhone 5c that I bought like 6 months after they were first released. I had to replace the battery last year but otherwise it still works perfectly.
Fucka change

It's even worse in the commercial sector. Telcomm companies need to burn in Pitman fire
