                          The gray market in my region sells the iPhone 6 Plus at $2200. And you call it quality build. I called it a hyped waste of money.

                            And the protests will come, 'this doesn't affect all Android phones', to which I say, the Bluetooth issue on iOS is also the same.

                            Relax guys, iOS just had a major update from iOS7 to iOS8, teething problems are inevitable. No need to get your panties all bunched up lol.

                                      In this times i'm no fan of any oem, just cause i apreciate and respecte the real deal and not the followers. Now that the real deal is gone, their is pretty much nothing in this market able to do some REAL innovations besides big screens, plastic cheep and bending "premium" devices. Now, on topic. Has there the ios and it's 80% streept off browser with it's left right streept off to the basics menu ever been better? Just asking, cause being a tech guy, i would never be able to accept this future phone as a smartphone. In fact, the only thing this "smartphone" can do is to install apps. And only for a name, and apps peiple pay noney like their is no tomorrow. Now, for the ibend fans commin here and prassing the sales of this devices. Being selled does not mean is good. I see everyday apple users that only knows the basics in their phones, not that the phone it self has to much tech inside. In germany having an iphone is quite nothing, so here is not about social and money. I see everyday android users that also, use their phone for basics and have no ideea how to even lower their screen brightness not to talk about other stuff. Now, i can saftly say 80% of smartphone users can go quite easy with a future phone that has whatsapp and installes some apps. This users don't know what quality means, as long as their friends have it, they buy it, even if it feals like a rack. So, does salles tell something about the devices people own? Well, minding the people that own them, nope, quite at all. But it sure tells something about people caracter (sheeep) and their ability to separate them selves from the mass. Which, here is not the case, cause they don't own any of this two important things. So, their you go, this is how companies make money, with less than what other offers, or poor quality or chaotic systems and the list goes on.

                                        The Cupertino arrogant losers!

                                        I do not understand that apple is so well selling having all those issues over and over again.

                                        It is not only about bending phones with shameless prices, but also faults in several software updates and all the restrictions apple has.

                                        I sold all my apple devices and went back to Windows and Android. Choosing once for apple was a very pricey fault I made, but I have learned my lessons and will never ever buy something from apple again.
