xOdd, 26 Jul 2018I don't mind it actually, it's time to end Qualcomm's monoply.. Agreed. Won‘t be able to reach more than 450 MBit/s in the next 5 years with my contract anyway.

In the whole world more than 80% people use android so can you tell me how many of them read/reviews tech ? Or else how many of them actually knows about the difference between android and iOS?
At least iPhone users don’t keep bashing and fighting on tech articles to prove anything(most of them). You guys are sick and are there on every apple product related article.
This shows how much insecure you guys are and that too for nothing. Grow up

Despite the criticism of Apple haters saying that Apple is doomed or what's so ever, Apple is still the most trustable company and the largest player in the world after Microsoft.
Iam not saying that Iam a Apple fan here or some sheep's that bleats. This is just my theory.

First Qualcomm will be supplying 5G modems
Second Apple provided Intel with essentially Qualcomm blueprint, if Apple can't rely on Intel as Qualcomm will have an easy job proving copyright infringement by Intel.
Worse case scenario Apple tries to release a 5G iPhone on 2019 with Intel chips, Qualcomm sues Apple, these phones essentially can't be sold, and Apple is a defendant in a long legal battle.
I wondered if this data breach by Apple was accidental. Qualcomm are confident that Apple will be a future customer as Apple has no other option for 5G

But freedom does not equals to security so...I choose the one that suits me in the meantime. Last four years was security for me. And now? It's freedom.

When comes to war apple really know how to start it.
But there will be the only one victor.
It will be android for sure.
We lost windows platform and windows in phones but nobody is mourning,
In next 2-3 years we will loose IOS and android fans will makes and huge party and the others will mourn.
This company were doomed since Steve died.
Now all that left are unskilled people with no debonair and passion for phone tech.
Rutheless warriors with no mercy. Which will battle a long time lost fight just to die with no honor and glory.

Sure. 1 GB of RAM is definitely not enough. But min RAM on iOS is 2 now. We consider that in Android as "Laughable". But as my work taught me. Never compare Oranges with apples. And it's true on so many levels. And Apple is "Stuck" by android terms to "Only" Hexa core configuration. And you can't share via Bluetooth, or manage your files. Or add songs without ShItunes.
Some people love that stuff. And the majority loves freedom.

Apple will sue more money on prices as a compensation for all the loss they had past year.
