The main mojo that died almost 10 years ago, Created a brand which exploit human's ego uncanny desire to feel exceptional, special and superior. Just convince people it's the best they can get, make it look exclusive, make it thing of status, and people gonna buy it regardless of what it actually is. Apple products thought aren't bad, they aren't really anything special.

Yes it's all about the logo and the cult and the greed and the blah blah blah. Such news was always going to upset a lot people who post on this site.
Look Apple is a business, and evidently have a very successful business model. I know they should be less greedy and more philanthropic like all those android making companies who are just in it for the good of humanity, oh wait.........
I know they should be less concerned with brand identity and not plaster their name and logo all over their products like all those android making companies, oh wait.......
Simple people are always going to try to simplify complex topics, which is why simple people are always going to be the one's complaining about the the highly successful and never be among them.
Look if news about Apple is so triggering for you, an article has just popped up about how well Alphabet (and therefore Google) have also done recently, go give that a gander, it'll make you fell better about things.
Just remember in their case it's nothing to do with brand or greed etc. Those are solely Apple traits it seems. Google love each and every one of us, and are in no way only interested in us as nodes to sell adverts.......

One of Apple's secret is customer service, international warranty coverage and customer satisfaction. It is not always all about features and hardware. From my experience, I had my iPhone Xs Max replaced with a new one when the face id was damaged by water (a year old), I had my Airpods Pro replaced a new one when I had a small problem with it (1 year and 11 months old), I had my iPad Pro 11 (2018) replaced with a new one when the screen had a problem. At where I am now, 2-year warranty is the standard.

rizki1, 28 Jul 2021why you still don't understand? I think it is, because... moreExactly, it's just another Cult, same gullible guys buying it over and over again.
This is why their total marketshare never goes past 25% while Android has touched 90% at one time.

Ohi, 28 Jul 2021Surpassing every other brand, as usual. Business is goodWell 1 apple phone is same as 3-4 of android phone sales for profit value. Probably more then 4 phones as apple phones are built to make 1000% of profit from each phone so they go with the lower quality materials even tough they say to cheeps that they have good quality materials like sapphire glass that scratches still like normal phone glass. And of curse not a single android brand cant sell more single models like apple does. Android brands are like 100 different brands that all have like 10-30 different models come out yearly so it makes sense that they wont sell more single phone models then apple does. while brands like Xiaomi, Samsung, realme and so on will sell more phones in combine with all there 10-30 models they have for a year. They also dont get 1000% of profit by each model as they sell value for the buck

I bought iPhone not because of the brand. I bought it because of how I looked at the value of the money I spent on the phone. For iPhone 11 the price is around 3k here in my country. Just imagine how expensive is this phone for some people. To put it simple, let say my country currency 1 is equal to 1 USD (1:1 ratio) 3 thousand for just a phone. That is one whole month worth of salary for some people. Back to the point, with the price I get 5 years of OS and security update. Compared to my Android phone that I bought for 1.5k and only probably get 2 years of OS update and god knows how long the security update there are. Can you see the difference?? The value?? And both phones (OS) are functions basically the same. Calls, texting(s), watching videos, games, took photos and so on. I'm using both iPhone and Android phone right now. Android phone for general use and iPhone for personal. I mean my contact number.
