All good reasons, to not buy the i-Phone 13.
bibendoom
Same guy is also getting swollen testicles with the iPhone 13, not to forget.

I heard they put 5G in that too. Wait, they actually did…

You forgot his testicles
hartm08260
The people you’re talking to are not the ones who are going to run out and buy the iphone13. Most of them have flip phones.
QueefMalone
Good to hear this type of sound reasoning and self-researched truth. I Will for sure wait.
jimmythehat1
But how are his neighbor of a friend of a cousin of a coworker's testicles?
gergpeabs
Not a great example, would work if they had developed the covid vaccine(apple) from the flu vaccine(android)
PlaidBastard
Hi, which phone will increase balls-magnitude? Asking for a cousin.
waitwtf
Totally have a NEW reason to not buy Apple products now!

I get what you mean. But you could stop after 5 words and its even better for the human race.

I get it, antivax bad. But this is dumb comparison, you're not going to inject the iPhone into your body for life saving or life destroying

"Do Not buy the iPhone..." Ok.

Can't argue with that... seriously they'll win with stupidity, they have tons more experience.

I know it’s poking fun. but wasn’t Apple convicted of creating faults in software as a way of making people buy a new device? Just saying

This isnt a good metaphor because you shouldnt be buying iphones anyways

You guys love beating dead horses

You definitely have an iPhone

This is literally what keeps Imgur going.

They wouldn't be dead if they had access to their deworming medication.

As long as these stupid arguments are being used to justify the dumb, the horse isn't dead yet.

I don’t need to read the news to know a new iPhone is coming. My iPhone 12 this last week suddenly has noticeably less battery.

Try restoring the phone, might be a bad update. iOS 15 has felt a bit buggy lately, and probably is the cause of the drain.
zanoii
That’s probably just Siri listening to you and getting annoyed. You should probably apologize loudly to her a couple of hundred times a day.
salunatics
Or because the 13 pro model hardware is worse than the OnePlus 9 that came out 6 months ago.
fumbledrop
I'm not an apple guy but I can still recognise how objectively you're completely wrong. Do better.
Buy a Huawei phone instead. Then your irrational fears can instead be very, very rational fears.

I also have a hatred of apple and still have MacBook, iPhone, iPad cause I’m a sheeple. :(
tmnturtwig
As you should. They are well known for keeping the doctors away. What are they doing to the doctors?
HeadJamistan
My rational hatred is best exemplified by their recent attempt to lobby against a bill designed to keep slavery out of supply chains. 1/

Y'all. We almost disowned our own son when he switched to an iPhone. THAT'S irrational. But totally worth it

Santorrr
Yeah. Expensive devices, cheesy branding and opposer of right to repair
thewiggins
this could apply to, fuck, like all the brands now?
Kudos for admitting its irrational instead of trying to convince yourself it’s rational like most others on here.
My hatred started way before smartphones. I'll give Apple their due, the original iPhone was a brilliant piece of tech.
Idk, my phone costs hundreds less than the same gen iPhone, and is capable of more. Also, it has a headphone jack :)
Headphone jacks are obsolete, the only use for wired headphones is in an audio studio or in video production. My work iphone has a jack but
Or for when my Bluetooth dies, or in a car without Bluetooth, or for the gym treadmill foe the TV, etc
the AirPods switches seamlessly between my phones anyway so I’ve never used it.
I’ll give you the price argument, but I don’t agree with the “does more” if we’re talking real-life scenarios and not hypothetical stuff.
I disagree, wired headphones have always been a dependable backup, but it seems the tech industry agrees with you.
bikeytom
Headphone jacks are absolutely not obsolete. I need it for my car and my zoom call headphones.
Car - wireless CarPlay. Zoom - Bluetooth works, eh?
saintedward
Tried explaining this to a kid at work, how Apple sell a name, how OnePlus make better devices half the price, how their headphones are 1/
I get what you’re saying but let’s take Xiaomi as an example. Praised as “The Apple of China” and now they found spyware on their phones.
Great products, great value. But can you trust them?
AMatureTwink
Can you trust any company selling you a complex cellular device with numerous sensors, antennae, cameras, etc.?
Governments infected SIM-cards with spyware. You can’t trust anyone, really, but you can at least choose products without proven spyware.
Good but for the $$ there's so much better out there. They convinced people that spending so much guarantees a better product when really 2/

Samsung makes more money off iPhone than Apple does. They make all their internal processors.
I'll correct. They did at one point. The market is so saturated now though, tha no one's special. I think androids are more user friendly
All Apple have done is find a way to make fucking loads of money. I accept their stuff is Hella nice, but you can save money buying better
It's also programmed to break in 2 years.
You are correct. Better is not always specs though, and a lot of it is the experience™ which is subjective. For me, the ecosystem is worth
the extra cost. For my parents, it’s not, although they haven’t tried so they’re basing their decision on .. something else, I guess.
That's a business model Sony used, though I'm sure didn't create: built a name out of quality then cut so many corners decades 1/
later, but people still associate the name with quality, so they spend hundreds more than some a lesser known brand that actually is quality
My hate for Apple is not irrational. Unless you buy thousands of dollars of apple nothing works together.
By design. And admitted
What exactly is it not working with? Mine works with Garmin watches, Google Chromecasts, Sonos speakers, Philips Hue lights, my Ford, etc.
[deleted]
CynicalMama
It no longer works with Samsung Galaxy watches... ?
Not even basic functionality? I didn’t know that.
Nothing Samsung or Android. All their file extensions are different than normal ones making it hard to move anything unless it's apple.
Some of their file extensions. I remember the headaches trying to move some of my moms pictures and video to her computer.
My iPhone works very well with my Samsung TV and also my Philips TV that just so happens to run… Android.
File extensions for files like.. xml? MP4? In my experience your statement is plain wrong, but I’d love to stand corrected.
I have macs, windows PCs, Linux servers, Android embedded systems, iPhones, Raspberries, Chromebooks and probably a bunch of other systems
IPhone saved its image files in HEIC format by default and they have to be converted to jpeg to move them.
Those are all things that use Bluetooth or streaming.. im talking about like image files, or documents.
This must have been a while back before support was widespread. Windows supports HEIC now, but I remember you had to buy a plugin earlier.
It was a few years back. Trying to figure out anything on my moms iPhone is super frustrating because there's no back button. 1/
Still, you could have easily converted them on the fly. Android and windows users tend to think in terms of files instead of photos or music
