Hahaha u post so much drivel I never think u can get any worse but u have :D
I still have a spare iphone 5s and plenty customers of mine too. They will, like me have WhatsApp, snapchat, Facebook and messenger running in the background and phone still functioning fine.
I can see it now when in your old age, in your final dying breath u will mutter under ur breath, "f##k aaaapple"

:D :D :D

    It has nothing to do with updates and othervise XS Max or XS, XR apple X etc are too big for pockets and too fragile compared to SE which was more durable than any new iphone released.
    Among fragile iphones 6 was the wiorst it failed completely on Jerry rig everything tests.
    Most people renew phones every 2 years so 2 years of updates is good enough.
    Reason apple put more updates is they want to spark among its customers despite the fact running IOS 12 on apple 5 is a serious problem because if you run more than 2 apps simmultaneously your phone will freezes.

U don't make any sense. At least u can keep iphones up to date for 5 years instead of 2 years. So android users change their phone every 2 years and apple users can keep hold of their phones for 5 years as many still using iphone 5s and 6 /6s. So android users will spend on 2 handsets in 5 years and apple users will spend on 1 handset in 5 years so prices people pay in a 5 year period is the same regardless of what os it is.

        And the bloatware? I run Moto X4 pure android no bloatware.
        Samsung is othervise. If you wannt to speak to the point be exact.
        Oneplus also dont have any bloatware it runs pure android.
        Some UI are actuay good almost on par with clean fresh android such as MUI.
        But Samsung Sony LG and HTC uses bloatware and stupid add ons and apps which noone wants use and must keep em anyway.
        Samsung is worst among all theses.
        Slowing cellphone via update is a serios reason to hate a brand.
        And 2 years of update is long enough and 3 years of security patches.
        Anyway most phones last 2-3 years then you need to renew.
        And contract with your cell phone operator lasts also 2-3 years.
        Apple was always serious problem and uses tons of bloatware but because theses apps were there from begining of IOS they looks like a part of the OS and users stopped complaining about them.
        Othervise they would delete half the OS to preserve disk space.

Compared to chargers which are many years old. And for many years android phones got slowed down by bloat ware? What do u call that? Are these adverts put on phones for the customer or for the money? Slowing down 4 year old iphones to preserve the battery and the haters create their own versions just to hate. Samsung was also fined for slowing down devices.

            But this company creates bugs to make customers unhappy.
            For example slowed devices over time so customer start thinking he must buy a new iphone.
            Or old chargers are unsupported even its same conector. Just because apple wants you to spend money on a new charger.
            And a lot more. With every update they add something so you have to renew.
            Dont overlook at this huge fails. They robbing their customers and giving them nothing but insane prices on everything as a reward,

                  Honestly u pick on every thing regarding apple like ur obsessed. If u hate them then why don't u just ignore them instead of stressing urself with hate? Regarding chargers since u brought it up, these chargers are for iPhone 4 and iphone 3/3g/s iphones which are way over 7 years old. Now how long do updates last on android devices? Working in a phone shop, this is bigger problem than 7 year old chargers. I have plenty customers who have problems updating or downloading new apps on android. After checking their devices, I then have to give them bad news that their perfectly working devices need replacing for newer apps and updates as their device Dont support them. Now if this happened on Apple devices after only 2 years then u would be making a big deal with angry comments on here about it.

                  Regarding connecting to Windows with iphones isn't an issue at all. As u can directly copy photos and videos from iphone to Windows just by plugging in cable. If u want to do music then iTunes works perfectly. Takes 5 seconds to open the program and with just a few clicks and all music is copied. It's very easy unless somebody is blind or has never used a computer before.
                  All ur arguments about iphones are very petty and it's like ur getting paid to bash apple or ur just obsessed with hate which is also unhealthy. Explore the world find new hobbies which make u happy instead of stressing about a phone company everyday

                    If this is your cleaner way then i dont know.
                    Since apple is mess in everything last topic with old chargers said the rest about this company i just wonder what you still see in apple devices.

                      Majority of main used apps are free on both stores and iv never bought any app from appstore ever as there's many free apps. If iphone gets full then people don't throw it away becoming obsolete. U said earlier u work in a phoneshop and is that what u tell customers?? U can easily back up everything to a computer or the cloud. Even Google photos is brilliant to back up all photos and videos. Luckily I have 256gb storage so doesn't affect me personally.

                        I never downloaded any malware or virus from aplaystore and i am android fan from beggining. Its just a lie.
                        In apple you have no options just delete when your phone gets full.
                        Its useless obsollete and sice you dont have SD slot your moves and possibilities are limited.
                        Also apps in apple store are a lot costlier.

                          App store is better designed and much safer than android play store.
                          Playstore is filled with malware and is very messy
                          Yes apps can be stored on sd card but depends on phone model and also not every app can be moved to sd card. Sd cards have much slower reading speeds so apps will run slower

                            Android store is free and because 90% of phones have SD cards there are plenty of space for apps especialy the navigations and maps which cost most space.

                                    It's amazing the Androids still promote the argument that apps in the Apple store are not free. I remember I was told so by Android smartphone sellers not to get an iPhone because I will need to pay for apps back in 2010. Then I went to an App Store and checked the App Store to see that there were tons of free apps. Androids always distort the truth just to make sure they win an argument.

                                      Apple knew from day 1, customer satisfaction and loyalty is the most important factor in designing their software and hardware. All the other specs are just internet fanboy talk.
