You may not think it's a computer, users may not think it's a computer, Apple may not call it a computer, but that doesn't change the fact that it's a computer.

It's only a phone in the same sense that a man crawling on the floor is a four-legged animal.
- 3grdlurker 5y agoOkay, then iPhones and iPads are computers meant for a subset of the functionality of laptops and desktop computers. The point remains. If it isn’t designed and meant to be used the way you want, it’s simply not the device for you and you should seriously consider rooting a phone or tablet with a mobile OS that you can control down to the code level.
- kaba0 5y agoAs if there were all that many options to choose for. There is absolutely nothing inherent in iPhone devices that would preclude them from using them as general purpose computers. For the amount of money I payed for them, I would better be able to use it some more than a fancy feature phone with better cameras. Hell, they have killer hardwares.
