It doesn’t take something like this to cause folks to mistrust Apple.

It’s almost a religion in some non-Apple users.

Apple ain’t perfect. Guess what. None of the other companies are either.

With technology increasing as it is, there’s two options. Watch older phones become obsolete, or limit the improvements on new phones.

The earlier iPhones were great in their day. We have to upgrade from time to time. Who knew?

I remember what I was using in the mid 1980s. Hey, I thought those were great phones too.

My iPhone X makes them look like waxed cups and ten feet of string. No, make that five feet.

An Osborne Executive portable computer, from 1982, with a Zilog Z80 4 MHz CPU, and a 2007 Apple iPhone with a 412 MHz ARM11 CPU; the Executive weighs 100 times as much, has nearly 500 times the volume, costs approximately 10 times as much (adjusted for inflation), and has about 1/100th the clock frequency of the smartphone.
