I don't get this.  I like my iPhone.  I have a long background in
technology and although you may or may not be right about the
supposed superiority of Android devices over Apple, I say 'so what'?
If I like something, who are you to tell me I should or should not do
so, and why should I care?

 
I like my iPhone too.  There are some things it does and certain apps
which I've grown accustomed to that I can't do without.  But I think
what Arlen has been pointing out to the iPhone group is that Apple has
severely limited iOS and the iPhone compared to Android and the other
phone manufacturers.

 
iOS also has less problems, less malware, and far less garbage apps
than Android. It also works mostly properly and sensibly, unlike the
disastorous mess of Android where every different manufacture adds
their own crap into it.
 
 

I guess it comes down to what a person values. Some prefer security and
simplicity to be provided to them. Others prefer complete freedom to do
what they want and be responsible for their own security. Some want a
combination of both and are willing to compromise.

It would be nice if we could actually discuss these values without
insulting each other.

 

This type of mentality is not tolerated and immediately assailed by
those heavily invested in the Apple ecosystem. There can't be a real
discussion without personal insults and talking past each other.  If
anyone doesn't worship Apple they are immediately labeled a troll or
heretic.  It's much like the political discourse these days.
