Because rice does fuck all. If you get your phone wet, carry it to someone who can dismantle and dry it ASAP.

Yeah, on any other phone you can pop out the battery and cards and flush the water out with alcohol. For iPhone you need tools to do that

I think the issue is the removal of the port. There is no choice unless you want to buy an adapter and then you can't charge and listen.

Go Samsung. They are east to mess with, and a quality product. You can pick up a used galaxy s5 for about $100. Try it out

I just got the s7 a couple months ago. I upgraded from the s4 only because they had the 'samsung gear' offer. It still works perfectly well.

I have the s7 and the s5, both are great, but if you have an s5 just stick with it, the s7 is marginally better.S7 is stronger but that's it

Support yes, but what people are saying is that the "support" actually make the phones worse with each update. Typically only anecdotal data

Most companies abandon old products well before that time. Apple is one of the very few that supports and upgrades the software for so long.

Also the product isn't built to last forever so it gets worse over time and will probably eventually break. I'm just switching to android.

The problem isn't that old phones don't get updates; it's that the updates intended for new phones bog down the limited resources of the old
