The hardware on those 300 euro phones are awful. iPhones last longer in both software support and actual usability.
> How can one justify paying 3x the cost if not just to continue keeping myself tied into Apple?
It's not rocket science. The experience you get using an iPhone vs a cheap Android for 5 years is not even close to comparable, and while you do pay a ridiculous premium for an iPhone, there are obvious reasons why someone would want to.
And this is coming from a long time Pixel user.
- rglullis 3y agoThe hardware is just fine. My old Nokia 6 from 2018 can still play Mario Kart just fine. I hate to see that I am starting to sound like an activist, but I also hate to see how even the supposedly smarter-than-average people in tech lose all sense of perspective when they see shiny overpriced trinkets. Why should we care if "the experience is not even close to comparable", if it is brought by a trillion dollar corporation who denies people even the most basic rights and fights as dirty as it can to keep its unfair advantages? (And please notice that the above paragraph also applies to Google and Samsung, so please don't make it sound that I am arguing for team Android here)
