    Samsung actually don't update every other week like fucking iPhones do,

    maybe the high end like S7 or S9 they will once every 6months, but the low end, never, and for that they can last quite a long time

    never underestimate the stupidity of people, and Apple and Facebook do they know it

    Reading this sort of thread sort of reaffirms my interest in binning smart phones and getting myself a flip phone next time round. I'm getting bored with basically chucking away perfectly good phones that get patched and upgraded into obsolescence as the phone companies try to trick you into buying a new phone every year.

    A piece of computer kit is a depreciating asset even though it still does its job adequately. Hence my comments about Windows 3.11.

    Compare and contrast (all students know those words) with a wristwatch. If I offered you a choice between a Rolex trench watch from 1915 and the latest greatest Apple watch which would you go for ?
    One is history on your wrist the other is a scam to be discarded in 18 months.

    Thrown a wobbly.
    I received an email for Apple: "What you should be watching this week".
    I despise TV and its catering for the mindless. And they because they have my location send me an email to be stupid and unthinking as there target punters.
    This is the 21st century, its going to take 10 days to stop sending me their mind controlling messages. "Apple thinks this therefore it is right..."

    Back in Belgium you could be prosecuted for that remark, though the smilie might with sincere remorse mitigate it down to community service.

    I had cause to visit a store in a city because my (freebie) iPhone was sick.
    So I rocked up early and found the lovely glass doors locked because they keep gentlemen’s hours.
    When the drongoes finally deigned to open up I suggested that they put the opening hours on the doors as a courtesy to their customers but they said ‘oh that wouldn’t suit the image - you can look up the opening hours online’.
    Well I could if the phone worked - I was travelling as I often do ...
    Idiot poseurs.
    I felt like hiring a glass blaster and doing the engraving after they went home.

    BTW, I am typing this on my MacBook - a superior manly device.


    iPhone stories? OK, got an iPhone 8 a while back, realised that the sound thru headphones was shite, so bought various very expensive headphones and adaptors and DACs to try and get my Share535s to work well - nope, iPhone sound is crap. So, sold the phone and the Beats bluetooth headphones, and will never go back to an iPhone.

    But, this sexy baby laptop just works more smoothly and with less errors/slow downs than any Windows S/W running machines. Microsoft apps work better on this MacBook (and free) than on Windows machines...

    Hey, butterfly, have you tried checking the switch is on?

    Apple is getting very popular in Korea, rivaling Samsung nowadays.

    All countries have their fair share of morons.

    iPhones, since the 6s have really gone downhill - I just can't see how their market share won't plummet; of course, they've stopped giving out the sales figures and now only give out profit figures to their share holders, so one has to presume that they'll sell less and less at higher and higher profit margins until one day...

    how much is the iPhone X in a market where it's cheaper to produce, and components prices have crashed

    probably on a 90% margin instead of the usual 75%

    I had cause to visit the Bromley store again today.
    The battery is degrading, a couple of hours online and I am down to 40% charge. I am still in warranty. I go there and I am told its not the battery. Its the cloud services that are consuming the power.
    So switch them off says he. Or create another profile so's not to update.

    I will do. But the telling fact is to get the battery replaced out of warranty would cost me £165.83. Apple only job.

    Nice guy, but I know I am getting snowed. My Ipad holds a charge for days. My primitive phone holds a charge for weeks.

    I will, in my own time, move to Linux or start using semaphore flags. Till then I am Apples bitch and I don't like it.
