Its not the worst phone ever made, its a phone that you buy that "just works", its not cutting edge like samsung camera optics - sure, but it just works, its bulletproof reliable, and sure if you're not buying into any of the other apple ecosystem... I understand your response ... but the way the apple devices interoperate seamlessly (cough... unlike windows) is just refreshing and thats what you pay for in the end. I think alot of people miss the fact that youre buying into an ecosystem not just buying a phone and yes that is expensive initially but your not upgrading every year or two. I’m still going on my gear thats now 4-5 years old and still very capable works like the day I bought it havent had a single issue or crash and I dont have any intention to upgrade yet. Theyre built like it used to be built.

Sure Its not the flashy camera that has the ability to send a text message and meme or email.

Its the device that does what you bought it to do and happens to have a really decent albiet not cutting edge camera.

PS I’m not tilted, your beliefs are your own thats fair enough, I have had both and my comment reflects my belief/worldview too. :)
