The way some users (mostly the "i" guys) brag about how they can afford a high end phone and state that other android users those buy a 300Euro phone buy it because they can't afford an iPiece, indicates what's wrong with our society in General. Being poor aint wrong, being rich aint a blessing. Buying a phone is a matter of choice. Don't fight guys, respect other's opinion, even when you don't agree with it.

    Anonymous, 07 Apr 2021Ok, keep telling yourself that. Hahahahaha. Aren't you boggy steffy guy?
    Don't you flip flop your views on iOS and Android every couple of months?
    Praise iPhone and iOS for couple of months and bash Android then for the next few months, do the exact opposite and bash iOS while praising Android.

We search for specs with competitive price tag that is not overpriced because of a logo. We're not like you that will say "oh this is a high end device because there is an apple logo behind it". Cheers.

          Getting widgets and app drawer is called poor long term support.
          Not having basic file management or easy connectivity with other devices is called poor support. Everything about iOS screams like a cheap low quality cult

Just because you stick bunch of high end components into device and plaster crappy broken Android with next to no support on top it doesn't make it a "high end" device. All Android phones feel like their OS is an afterthought and vendors also treat it same way. With really poor long term support because they care about selling you new device more than they do you sticking around with just them as a vendor. I mean, just look at Android users in general. How many stick around single brand? Everyone is jumping from brand to brand. What does that tell you?

                      Do you think all 50 companies have equal share in 1.2 billion market. It is dominated by 4 brands only.

                      And most of the iPhone users won't buy new iPhone, they buy old iPhone or second hand ones.

                        Even low end budget phones were superior in many areas than iPhone which is why people bought them. The most selling iPhone was not more than 700$ in places where there were record results.

                            [deleted post]Good god, Android fanboy just reeks out of you. Single company sold 200 million mostly high end devices. Then 50 other companies sold 1.2 billion devices. Together. Mostly 200-300€ budget devices. What's there to be proud of lol? The number of units sold literally tells nothing. You can sell 1.2 billion 50€ devices. Does that make you the best company in the world?

                                      Statistics like this confirm that people don't want an inferior phone like iPhone, and they certainly don't want to be part of iOS which is playing catchup to budget Android devices.

Perhaps Samsung then? Coz the vast majority of critics of foreign brands often comprised Apple and Samsung buyers. You sound dishonest
