Consumer Reports was long the home of the Mac-free desktop and laptop computer review. They’ve never been particularly fond of anything from Apple. This is no different. Straining at gnats that are admittedly as much the problem of the carrier, but failing to recommend what they also admit is a fantastic phone. Par for the course for CR.
But the DO recommend the AT&T phone.
I responded to someone who accused: ‘....a CR employee of sleeping with someone from AT&T.’
Sorry you can't accuse CR of being anti iPhone when they recommend the iPhone as one of the best smart phones.
You applesauce dudes are just totally without reason.
