Stupid ones at that. Almost every other brand offers better value for
money. It's always been that way.

How would you know Felix? How many "non-tecno people with money" do you
know?

I can't speak for what the bulk of other individuals do and why, but I
know a couple of people with Iphones who I would consider to be both
"non tecno" and "without money", but they buy them anyway because they
*like* them.

I can also tell you that the Victorian public service uses Iphones
almost exclusively for no reason other than standardisation.

of course ppl buy what they like, but many ppl don't see the value in
iPhones and other istuff and consider them a waste of money, and others
simply can't afford them

A fallacious argument. Apple sheeple are locked in to a closed system
where they get to like what they served, don't ask questions and don't
have any other options.

Nope, far from it and Apple also fight against a customers right to
repair which in itself is enough reason to never go anywhere crApple
products.

Really? Lucky you. Not sure how that would allow you to speak for the
majority though which was what you seemed to be doing....

I don't know about other "Istuff" (which is a pretty good term actually
:), but the phone market is reasonably competitive. Iphones are pretty
expensive, but it's not like all of the competing Android stuff is
shitloads cheaper. For example, a current Iphone 15 Pro Max 512gb is
$2549 outright from JB, whereas a Samsung S23 Ultra 512gb is $2249 from
the same place. Yes, the Samsung is cheaper, but not by a hell of a lot
and *both* of them are massively over priced in my opinion.

Both of them also sell just about as fast as Apple and Samsung can make
them, and if you find yourself in that kind of position where people are
prepared to throw whatever money you want at you to buy your Ishit as
soon as you release it then why would you price it at anything other
than "stupid"?

There is a reason why Apple and Microsoft are the two wealthiest
companies on the planet, and that generally is because a hell of a lot
of people seem to have more money than sense.

And then there are those of us who buy what we like, buy what suits our
needs, don't consider them a waste of money and, most importantly, can
afford them.

From my own personal experience - you can stick your Android phones up

Nah Darren, it's not the money, it's the *reliability* of the product.
That's why you can buy Heap of shit Nissans off the showroom floor
currently but will wait 6-18 months to get a Toyota.
