    Walter C. Dornez, 11 Feb 2019That's not the reason. It's the solidarity between all iPho... morePeople continue to be iPhones because it is what they are used to. they don't want to change. they are comfortable with the way it "works". Oh, and for some reason there are still a lot of people who think the word iPhone has prestige. It doesn't. Same thing goes for Apple. I switched from HTC phones to an iPhone only because a repair shop broke 2 of my HTC phones and refused to compensate me or even admit that they broke them so it was suggested I switch to the iPhone even though I am not an apple fan. I phone is alright but I do much prefer android and wish I hadn't switched.

      Dr. Chillo, 12 Feb 2019Excuse me? blindly hating them? Dude I already counted many... moreno. say whatever you want. Apple will stay.

        Walter C. Dornez, 09 Feb 2019Better then not getting any fix. Also, we're talking about ... moreOk let's stay with iPhone and fast updates. I assume you already read enough about critical bugs in iOS 12.1.4. They give critical rights to developers and hackers. Almost full access to hackers. Let's see how long does it take to Apple fix this very dangerous bug.
        And more about fast fixes, iPhones X, Xs and Xs Max still have the connectivity problem since 14.1.2 (since about 2 months ago). WOW SUCH AN AWESOME FAST RESPOND AND FIX, GOOD JOB APPLE.
        Dude open your eyes. don't be an i*Diot.

          Walter C. Dornez, 11 Feb 2019Dude, I don't like a lot of what they do either. But blindl... moreExcuse me? blindly hating them? Dude I already counted many reasons. Alone slaving chinese workers in Foxconn is enough to hate Apple. But if you don't give a F**K about other people and like many others you say "chinese govermnets are the reason not Apple" or your argument is "die, all other manufactureres are doing the same" too, then think about taxes. "YOU" pay taxes, that "APPLE MUST" pay in your country. Do you get it? You pay money to Apple bring their overpriced products to your country. I will skip many others like customer service and how they break your devices to you buy theier new trashes and more.
          Is that enough for you to hate Apple or you're waiting for more from your beloved Apple?

            Dr. Chillo, 09 Feb 2019Hahaaaaaaaa dude, unfortunately for you I must inform you, ... moreCritical flaws and long patch times are the exclusive domain of no one. Android's February security update includes fixes for multiple remote code execution flaws with escalated privileges in Nougat through Pie (for those devices vendors continue to patch). Earlier versions likely to have the same flaw? Left blowing in the wind.

              Anonymous, 08 Feb 2019I bet you never coded anything With that response, I can tell you with absolute certainty they haven't.

                Dr. Chillo, 11 Feb 2019I Almost agree with you. iPhones are good devices,but Look ... moreThat's not the reason. It's the solidarity between all iPhone users through iMessage and just the name iPhone. That's what sells it

                  Dr. Chillo, 11 Feb 2019Are we still talking about Apple or only about iPhone? Caus... moreDude, I don't like a lot of what they do either. But blindly hating them is about as productive as blindly loving then

                    Walter C. Dornez, 09 Feb 2019I mean, to be fair, the devices do last and iPhones are the... moreI Almost agree with you. iPhones are good devices,but Look at the customer support, quality, componnents, build quality, only 1 year guarantee, unfair production in Foxconn and etc., old and trash charging cable, adabter and headphone in the box, bypassing taxes (the consumer pays taxes, that Apple has to pay). At the end if iPhones were 50% cheaper they Ould be acceptable devices.
                    Then people ask me, so why so many people buy Apple devices? My answer is: I have Brain and i don't buy one, maybe other don't have it.

                      Walter C. Dornez, 09 Feb 2019Better then not getting any fix. Also, we're talking about ... moreAre we still talking about Apple or only about iPhone? Cause iPhone is an Apple product as MacBook is.
                      Anyway can you remember that stupid bypassing lockscreen in iOS 11? When Apple did fix that huge problem? right, about 4Months later, and what was the fix? exactly, they turned off the specific Siri's feature completly. Is that a fix? NO. Is turning of the whole feature a fix? NO. Does Apple need 4 months to turn the feature off? NO. Did that "FIX" really fix the problem? NO, the Problem was still there but with another workaround you could bypass the lockscreen. Did Apple fix the problem at all? YES. When? in iOS 12, After about 1 year?
                      A sad but true story.
                      Stop defending anyone or anything blindly. don't be a sheep, dude. Apple not gonna pay you anything to defend them. people like you give Apple and otheres the opportunity to they do what they want with us.

                        Dr. Chillo, 09 Feb 2019Hahaaaaaaaa dude, unfortunately for you I must inform you, ... moreBetter then not getting any fix. Also, we're talking about the phones. I personally hate Macs as well. Stay on subject

                          Dr. Chillo, 09 Feb 2019Same answer to you dude, there's a big, big difference betw... moreI mean, to be fair, the devices do last and iPhones are their main source of revenue. They do need to reduce the price though

                            Walter C. Dornez, 08 Feb 2019I'm not trolling. If there's only one good thing about Appl... moreHahaaaaaaaa dude, unfortunately for you I must inform you, that you have literally no idea about the world of technology. Just a simple example, Apple fixed on of most ridicules and most dangerous bugs of MacOS history after over 6 months. I believe you even didn't hear about that but that was a bug in in high sierra, that you could login without password and get access to every single data of a Mac. A blazing fast fix after 6 months.
                            Dude just take 5 minutes before writing a comment and educate yourself before commenting if you don't have any idea of what are you talking about.

                              Walter C. Dornez, 08 Feb 2019Doesn't every company care about money?Same answer to you dude, there's a big, big difference between thinking ONLY and ONLY about money or making profit is playing a big roll in a company.

                                Anonymous, 08 Feb 2019Because facebook and google are charitiesNo but there's a big big difference between thinking ONLY and ONLY about money or making profit is playing a big roll in a company.
                                So what you've learned today is: Apple cares about nothing on this world except money but most of other companies have making money in the list of their 5 most important goals.

Just because most of its features are broken lmao.. Android instead only require fixes far and wide.. Because most of the features does not have a problem.
