That was not our initial argument nau.
We were not talking about price at launch.
We were referring to current price.

Then your argument is baseless.

Phone contract, talk time, and data combo give you a discount. I was paying 60 dols for talk time /data monthly but when I did a contract phone my data increased and the price also decreased to 45 dols. Currently pay 100 dollars a month for the contract phone plus talk time. you can research yourself on the perks in the USA and UK.

So the only thing we iphone good for na just the camera? Apart from ruggedness tell us other utility wey iPhone get. No pen for phone for iphone no dex experience for iphone na yo dey just to collect money from people we get zero knowledge about technology

Some reasons:

1. Good build quality: You can feel the quality just by holding an iPhone in your hand.
2. Second hand value: For whatever reason, iPhones tend to hold value more than competing brands.
3. iOS: This is debatable but IOS in my opinion is much smoother and more efficient than android. The user interface and experience is very good and is standardized.
There are fewer phones to support so it’s easier for app developers to make their iOS versions as excellent as possible.
4. Longevity: apple continues to release iOS updates for its older iPhones for a good number of years (5 to 6). Androids I had in the past released updates for a year or two and stopped.
This is very important for security as vulnerabilities are patched frequently. It’s no surprise that you find android phones infected with malware that pops up unsolicited adverts without recourse for the user.
5. Cameras: nothing to say here, cameras are decent.
6. Apple ecosystem: A major part of why Apple is successful is how well their various devices play together. Some examples: you can use your iPhone as a webcam on your Mac seamlessly, you can use your iPad as a second screen for your Mac, you can easily and automatically switch your AirPods between all your Apple devices (Mac, iPhone , Apple TV etc).
7. Security: if your phone is stolen/misplaced, you’re almost guaranteed that your data is safe (say you have nudes on the phone). Most of the time the phone can only be sold for parts as it’s difficult or impossible to break iCloud lock.
Even now, it seems the phone is completely useless as Apple has started to digitally sign parts and their permission is required before they can be used as spare parts in other devices.

These are my personal reasons. It’s easy to stay back and think yourself so smart for not using one but my advice is to first use an iPhone before forming an opinion. Same with macs and other Apple devices.

You said it all.. let those forming opinions to first use iPhone before talking down on d phone

It's lack of exposure and poverty mindset that makes you think iPhone is overrated. Common Egypt here I went to a program where people come from different countries.

Are you saying they are all wrong for preferring iPhone as their mobile phone choice.

The average 9ja guy or lady will rather bad mouth what they can't afford.

Tell people here to queue for new iPhone now you will see a long queue from Lagos to Adamawa state.
Truth is you like MacBook, iPhone and ios product but you are either materially or mentally broke to afford or recognized that it is good for your hard earned money.

Re: What's Special About Iphone? by LAW2577: 10:06am On Oct 05, 2023
that is a fat lie.
pseudonomer:


All flagship Android phones are as expensive as iPhones. The reason why many focus on iPhones is that Apple doesn’t produce mid-range or low-range iPhones, unlike Samsung, Xiaomi, and others. For example, the Samsung S23 Ultra is slightly more expensive than the iPhone 15 Pro Max.

Samsung, Google Pixel, LG, Xiaomi, OnePlus, Sony, and others have flagship phones that are often as expensive as iPhones, and sometimes even more so.

Nothing really special.

What makes it worse is that 9/10 of those having one, they don't even utilize 25% of what makes up the fone.

Even 10% sef.


It's more of a status item disguised behind Lovers Gifts nowadays.

Ever heard of people travelling to Naija, buy phones there, then go back to maybe faraway Australia, or maybe someone buy it in Nigeria, then a friend bring it over?

why do that when phones are slot cheaper in those faraway countries...


Maybe you're just addicted to the techno brand..


I get it...

Phones are not cheaper in western countries, unless you are referring to high-end phones. But techno, Infinix, oppo, and those Chinese brands for third world markets are way cheaper and durable.

Cheaper - certified

Durable - nah, never that...

The only brand I can label durable is the Nokia brand..


Look I'm not saying it's odd to use brands like that but I'm just saying, since you live in these western countries, I do not see reasons why you should use a techno .. but to be candid, you already use an iphone and you just probably like the techno brand .. I get it...

It's a free world... You use whatever you need to use..

Adios

It's not overated, there is an app called Night vision on Apple store, this app allows you to see Through complete darkness , it uses your phone camera without turning on the flashlight. Every where will be green and you will watch people in the night without them knowing.
I looked for the app on play store , the night vision i found on playstore couldn't see shit, it was even darker than the night, I went ahead andd tried other 10 suggested apps under Night vision, all trash thank you.
Hahahaha
