Are they offering to allow a replacement to enter in or effectively bricking devices (well soft brick, as they can still call and text)?
- pneill 6y agoThey wouldn't brick your device as the native apps would always be available. In my mind, I'm toying over how committed Apple is to the customer experience. Apple always talks about the user experience first and if they honestly believe that a free and open store is a bad experience (just for the sake of discussion accept this point), would they consider ending the app store (say for all new devices) because they'd rather give a "great" experience rather than being forced to give one they believe is substandard. Essentially protect their brand. I don't see Google ever doing something like that. But Apple... I dunno.
