Everything Apple iOS 18 Will Do, Android Already Does
It's not all copycat features. In some cases, Apple makes it better for iPhone users.
You're viewing a single thread.
I mean Android, and Samsung in particular, borrow from Apple all the time as well. Hell Samsung frequently bad mouths Apples for the anti-consumer choices one year then follows suit and does the same thing in a year or 2 themselves.
These kinds of takes are not the flex some seem to think they are in my opinion.
So what you're saying is, if you want advanced phone features sooner buy an Android, if you want to be subjected to dodgy business practices sooner buy an Apple
Yeah remember when Samsung charged you double?
No ?
Yeah me neither.
Eh? Their bog standard device cost is usually pretty on par. And Apple definitely isn’t charging you double.
Which one is bog standard? Samsung has over 12 different models on production that range from 150$ to 1900$, including two models with folding screens. Apple has
34 almost identical phones, they're all overpriced hardware.The hardware is overpriced, absolutely. But it’s also typically better than Samsung.
By big standard I mean their “low end” device. The comparable Samsung of each generation is usually within ~$200 of the Apple model.
Better? The Apple hardware is always significantly worse than competition in the same price class. Most of the price of an iPhone goes to their excessive marketing and record profits, so they have to cut costs on hardware
You mean to say that the accidentally bendy phone is better than the actually foldable phone? Or that the accidentally bendy tablet is better than the tablet that is almost 20% larger, equally thin but somehow doesn't bend?
Really? We going to ignore the accidentally not allowed on planes because they can explode phone?
Of course, as we know no Apple device has ever caught on fire, never.
Everything that uses electricity has caught fire before. It happening a handful of times is very different than being banned from planes.
