This will invariably insight flame, but you did ask:
That Apple consumers aren't very informed consumers? I'm not knocking their products, but I know plenty of mainly Apple users that buy them because they are solid, middle-of-the-road products that don't require much thought. That's both good and bad.
Disclaimer: I have had iPhones, iPads and might buy a Macbook after todays reveal depending on featureset.
- 7Z7 10y agoIt's not Apple consumers, so much as the general public. I guarantee you that the average Android smartphone owner (if they even knew that dual cameras exist) thought Apple was the first to do so too. It's marketing. Positively for Apple, and negatively for the brands who have this tech and don't manage to get the word to the average person. You make a big mistake in assuming owners of Android phones are more informed than Apple owners. Especially since Android owners outnumber Apple by quite a margin. You may be correct in assuming that the more informed consumer tends to purchase an Android device (though maybe not), but that doesn't lead to your conclusion.
- croon 10y agoYou are right, it was a bit of a lizard response. I really don't judge people for either decision of hardware, but more by their justification of that choice. There are numerous reasons for going for either brand/model. But I do notice a lot of these threads tend to express the same (incorrect assumption) as GP, which kind of riles me up.
