I just think Apple used to be pretty well ahead of the competition innovation wise, and even when Samsung were beating them on specs the whole package just wasn't as good. That always justified the premium price point. But as time has gone on, the iPhone has really just stagnated specs wise, even iOS is just pretty lame now. Hasn't evolved and is very limited in how it can without a fully redesign, iOS10 side by side with Android N just looks pretty dated. The notifications and multitasking are still bodge jobs. Overall its just a piss take now, nothing about the whole experience is standout other than the price. They have pretty much released the same phone for 3 years straight, other than de rigueur internals bump. With something like Siri which long term you would expect to be at the heart of the user experience, the development is just a joke still pretty much a gimmick. You look at what Amazon are doing with the echo, Google have now on tap and home coming this year. Apple don't even feel the need to invest some of those massive profits on a response. I think it just goes to show what near contempt Apple have for their customers that on the back on declining sales this is what they are offering for their flagship product.

Near an upgrade myself, and half expected them to lull everyone into expecting little change and then headlining something to put them back ahead, but no. Basically 2 years worth of R&D between this and the 6. Genuinely wondering how long it will be before they start selling a tin of polish and a sticker kit, so you can upgrade you old iPhone for £600+. People will still queue up for that.

Disapointed tbh.*

Wife needs a new phone, she is still using an old Iphone4 with a cracked screen..

She is a pain in the arse to find a new phone for though, because she doesnt like the design of the new Iphones, and thinks they are a waste of money.. she doesnt want one of the old-style Iphones, because then she thinks 'why did I bother upgrading', and she wont go android because she likes the apple operating system..

What do you do? Any non-awful hacks to put IOS onto an android phone? is that even possible?*

Disagree that Apple "have the crowd" tbh, I don't think they've had the crowd in ages. I know a lot more people with Android's than Iphone's these days.

Tbh it could be my bias - I spot IPhones a mile off and probably don't notice others as much.

I think for me personally it's just that 90% of the people I text have iPhones so my perception may be a bit skewed there.

Even so, I fully appreciate there are better phones out there than iPhones but I just can't seem to get out of the loop, and more importantly I don't want to.
It's illogical I know, but it's also simple and easy with Apple.

I don't have any other Apple products though, just the phone.

We all know somebody like fallen acorns would've gotten in on the act and ruined it *with random** asterisks...*.*...*

think about it, sometimes he hates muslims, sometimes he loves them.

I have an iPhone, and I'm also gonna buy Golovkin-Brook. Cause I'm a sucker for a bit of hype.

No regrets on either decision.

Looking forward to this. GGG knockout?

It's easy to have your phone link up to iTunes and sync everything.

Most likely, I reckon somewhere in Rounds 7-9.

Apple music >> Spotify

If you like less songs for the same money then yeah.

I like Taylor instead of endless songs that no one cares about (4 million with literally 0 plays as of 2014)

She's a dirty money grabber. We all know you only play Taylor to lure those pre teens into your van you nonce.
