Anonymous, 12 Jun 2018Clearly the point is that apple always charges you so much ... moreu must really hate apple with ur long reply.
none of the bugs have plagued the iphones in a bad way. my own iphone 7 plus has had zero issues. being limited isn't a bad thing either. not everyone wants to change colours of their keyboards or fonts as well as other gimmicks.
going back to android which is made by google, who also made some pixel phones, which also suffered from battery issues from updates.
apple devices aren't plagued by bugs, thats just been over exaggerated by haters. if u owned an iphone then u would know there isn't any major issues. any major bugs have always been ironed out very quickly. nothing is perfect but iphones run much smoother and perform much better than android phones hence why iphones sell more than any brand of premium android phones. I work in a phone shop. everyday customers come with problems on their androids, mainly some type of google services crashing and not allowing user to open any of their apps. this happens everyday but only iphone problems I deal with are when users drop their phones or any other physical damage. none have ever come to me with software issues. that's why these iphone bugs get exaggerated by people like you

Don't judge Apple by the usual smartphone standards. It is a more affordable version of a Hermes bag.

Go to General -> Background App Refresh under settings and unselect app refresh for all. You will still get notifications (important ones) and battery will drain less faster.

Why are people mad at Apple? Especially those who do not even own an Apple product? Just stick to your Android products and move on with your life. Look, I have a Samsung S8 and this battery drains much faster than my wife's iPhone X that's updated to the newest iOS version. Honestly, even with playing a game such as Vainglory, I can see the difference in performance between 2 phones. And my phone has so much RAM and all that processing power stuff. But I don't bash Apple. At the end of the day, if I love my phone, which I do, then I'll keep it. Let Apple lovers love their phones, while us Android people should just stay away from stuff we shouldn't even worry about.

There is no two ways about it though. This is an undeniable truth. However for some reason this is how humanity acts and people will still fall it. And they will still act out and reply to yas in anger and denial

Closed system, only a few different models to support, sold at a premium price and still can't update smoothly across their own line of equipment. Ha-ha

Anonymous, 12 Jun 2018Every android user who comes to post about a negative artic... moreClearly the point is that apple always charges you so much more for so much less. And they can supposedly do this because of their "quality" and "supreme" optimizing. Which was never really a thing.
And only having so few devices and lacking so many features was only supposed to make that much more possible.
Yet for years had a dramatic world lead in app crashes.
And anyone that's been using an I device for a number of years now knows that despite all of the above their updates have done anything but reflect this. Despite all of the above of paying extra, receiving less, limited options, etc etc... it's as if they throw out last decline rushed betas and pocket the money.
Not to mention the purposely intended fast obsolescence of batteries, bendgate, touch disease, and many other plagued issues that should never bean issue with how much they charge compared to what they offer and what they lead people to believe in their claims.
And no. Nothing is perfect. But most android updates are not that bad. Especially so consistently. If there is a buggier one. They work on. Not continue sending them out with that many errors years in a row
As well just because someone points out factual severe issues doesn't mean you should negate it by going oh yeah!? Well that he's issues too!!!
Clearly not the point or issue at all. It shows that you arethe one with denial issues and being a hypocrite.

Especially t... moreWell, if one does not update his/her phone frequently, then the phone will survive longer than it should be. Updating your phone always affects not just your overall experience, but also affwcts the software quirks that degrades its performance everytime especially this serious bug.

Every android user who comes to post about a negative article about iphones, are normally the haters.
Truth is every os has bugs and apple are usually quick to release a newer update to fix these bugs.
But I'm sure there have been crazy issues with android updates been posted on gsmarena recently too.
Nobody said iphones are perfect. There's will never be a perfect device.
All phones will have to deal with bugs, Android software too.
