Lucky for this guy Apple is the only company that has power, processing power, and 3rd party developer constraints to deal with when creating their products. The laws of physics don't apply to other companies. He should be very happy from now on because all other products are fully baked and have no quirks. The one thing that does worry me is that he will buy the new galaxy 7 and the write an essay about how atrocious the Galaxy s3 was and write off Samsung forever. <\sarchasm off> Everyone can have their opinion but this sorta stuff is troll fodder. I don't care what you use or don't use and just because you have a platform doesn't make your opinion any more valuable than mine or other posters here. Had this been a clear, well thought out statement that didn't complain about 5 year old products I might be able to give it some credence. I would love to hear from anyone who read this article and it changed their life. I suspect this will quickly devolve into apple haters vs Apple fans. Tired. Apple isn't forcing you to spend money on their gear.

I was a long time Apple fan. I stayed on the iPhone track for 7 years, upgrading every 2 years. Even I thought this article was too much. As you say, his complaints are mostly for 5yr old products. I had other complaints. There's no clear winner. I have a Oneplus One and I love how flexible it is; it's not a walled garden in the way iOS would be but I'd be rather disingenuous if I said that its not without its issues. The latest CM update now causes my phone to completely drop off the network every 2 or 3 hours and then I have to remember to search for a network manually to get back on. Have missed so many important calls in the last few weeks. I miss the days of polished products that just work. Apple had that down to a tee, so even when they had less features, I was still happy because at least it was dependable. It's just not like that on their mobile devices anymore.
