it's easier for normies to use. Why does all that shit matter anyways. Most people just want to browse the internet, text, call, and use simple apps. IOS is intuitive and easy to use. Also I prefer android but I have the ability to understand the viewpoints of others because I am not a shut-in.
>>54491424
why? i can do everything i need with ios 9. i can download files with chrome and open/save them in the app i want. i can open anything on anyapp i want with simple share button. only thing i cant do is torrenting which is retarted to do on a smartphone
>>54491387
most iphone buyers don't want this stuff.
They are happy as long as their phone "just werks".
- They don't want to explore the fs
- They don't torrent anyway
- They don't want to customize
The thing I agree on is that it's really shit, that there's no expandable storage.

>>54491452
please tell how you get expandable storage using jailbreak
that's ignoring the fact that you have to void your warranty to do basic shit like that
>>54491452
Can confirm, jailbreak activated my micro SD slot.

mobile devices should not have a file explorer. I don't want to fuck around moving config files around or searching through documents for that photo
iOS not having expandable storage is super jew, forcing users to get the more expensive models
no torrenting is probably because of legal reasons. Why you'd want to torrent on a fucking phone is retarded though

What if you run out of storage? What if you want to keep your music on your phone? What then? Are you going to spend another 700$ for the same iPhone with more storage?
>>54491387
Sounds like you need a computer, not a phone. You should buy a computer.
>>54491387
Well, I'll fucking bite:
I use a whyPhone and I only use it for basic communication and comfort.
>Why pay more if you only use the basics.
Fuck if I know, I like the design and how smooth/intuitive it feels. Sure, having to jailbreak it is quite a hassle, but after all, picking this phone was an active decision after "finding" my last iPhone abandoned on a sink in a train bathroom.
>>54491879
Not the same anon. But I'm getting a bigger one, (current one is "8"GB) and I am using Apple Music to find and download more onto an external drive until I'm satisfied with my collection. After that I'll just dump my subscription and keep what I downloaded on my HDD.
I don't use my phone for any Watch_Dogs level of l33t haxing, that's why I have my desktop & laptop for.

The quotation marks were kinda wrong, I did legit find it in the bathroom, I left it where it was for two stops then I decided to take the little orphan under my wings. Not my fault the previous owner didn't activate the "Find my iPhone" service before losing it.

you don't need more than 32gb on a phone. 64gb is pressing it, and 128gb is a ridiculous amount

You can if you have a Mac (for AirDrop), or a wifi network connection

it's not for ricing. It's a phone. The only people that actually care about android customization is XDA and autists on /g/
>wew
most flagship phones that aren't cheap Chinese shit, crowdfunding crap or meme phones cost in the same neighborhood as an iPhone, ranging from $600~$800. And with carrier contracts that 90% of the android and iPhone user base use, you don't pay the full amount. If your carrier doesn't have a subsidy, Apple has one that comes with an unlocked phone.
Not to mention that anroid is BotnetOS, made by Botnet, inc
>inb4 you can remove it
The botnet is always there
>>54491643
You can so that without a file manager. Flux, iNDS, provenance, to name a few popular ones are not on the AppStore. But it stands, if you have the source, you can install anything you want on an iPhone.

BECUZ IT JUST WERKS
ever time i use OSX over the years it just gets worse and worse
Same with iOS
first couple of versions where very fast but ever since 4 they just got more bloated and slow and now famously insecure.
Not defending, i could give a shit about Apple/Microsoft/Google, but --
>no torrenting
isn't true. I was torrenting on the iPhone 3G, and a few buddies of mine still do. Web interface on a remote server makes it possible.
Look at it this way -- if Android fags make excuses than expect Applefags to as well. Also, --

Jesús christ this is abysmal, why would you pay for such an overpriced cellphone when a chinky one does the same (even better specs) for the fraction of the price?
Not to mention that both are made in the same fucking country.
>>54491387
Because a large group of people just dont care about that stuff
Because I've owned this iPhone for nearly 6 years (that I got for free in a rewards program) and I'm not cashing out for a new Android. Besides, I barely use the thing. I don't talk to people, I don't go outside.

To be honest, having been an android user for a few years, I do actually prefer iphones now. Expendable storage has never been a problem, I'm not an idiot who downloads a dozen movie to his phone when he has a laptop. Not being able to access the golden from a computer is actually fine too. I don't need iTunes to transfer pictures, which is the most common file transfer I do. Dealing with Android's file system was kind of a pain in the ass. Lack of customization didn't bother me either. Ricing is a time sink. You can do it if you jailbreak, but I never bothered. I never torrented on my phone either. Jesus man, do you really not own a single other computing device or have an actual internet connection? I know the pajeet meme if overplayed, but...

You clearly have no idea what you're talking about if you think fucking jailbreaking your iPhone will magically provide you with an SD card slot.

If you wanted to. There's a transmission client for ios
werks good enough
screen good enough
security good enough

don't have to be neurotic about the latest and greatest roms.
I used to be addicted to flashing roms and etc on android, at one point I had like 5 phones and was making my own roms. It literally kept me up at night.
Bought an iP6 for the lulz when they came out. Will never go back, get fucked android.

Most iphone users I know get their music off streaming services, and most don't even have their own music collection at all on their own hardware. Those people with 16gb iphones are paying $80-200 month like morons often to get at their data on cloud services, entirely out of illiteracy.
In my case with my near-identical stinkychinky xiaomi phone, I pay $15/mo for my cellphone that has 64gb of storage and all my music, I use less than 200mb data per month.

>>54497201
>Most iphone users I know get their music off streaming services
The ones that I know use spotify too but I haven't seen someone who stores all of their photos/videos on the cloud meme. They mostly run out of space due to that.
Still, cloud seems pointless considering that 128gb micro sd cards can be bought for ~$45. I don't really think that people like the idea of access to your pics being dependent on you having coverage.

This is false
>>54498430
This is false too, except of course iMessage which is Apple's thing and they try to keep it that way. My phone has Android 6.0, memory card slot and 3200 mAh battery. I wouldn't want to trade it for Apple's phone. Especially when they were the same price when I bought it, so there aren't even any financial gains.
>>54495588
>using comas as decimals
Wtf is this
>>54498580
See the difference? A 3200 mAh Android lasts as long as a 1800 mAh iPhone.
An Octa core 1,8GHz, 3GB RAM is as fast, or less, as a dual core 1.4GHz, 2GB RAM iPhone.
iPhones are so well optimized they need slightly over half the specs as any Android phone to perform on the same level, or even better.
>>54498993
>A 3200 mAh Android lasts as long as a 1800 mAh iPhone.
This is false, my phone outlasts any iPhone made so far. It can last several days.

I am on an Android phone again after using an iPhone for a while but I have to buy a new phone soon. Since most of my apps are here on Android really want to buy another Android phone but it just seem like a waste of my money comparing to what I would get buying an iPhone.
why do I need a file explorer on my phone. I had it on android an never used it
128gb is more than enough storage for me
yes I can, I do it all the time, I just dont use a usb cable for it
the homescreen/lockscreen on the iPhone is literrally perfect. Only kids rice their phones

What's having no friends like?
>>54501209
I have no idea so I can't help you there, but I can say what's it like to have your phone ring very rarely since everyone uses some kinds of messengers.
Actually there was a brief moment when I kind of had no friends, when I was 11. I changed schools because my family moved and I didn't know anyone. I did go to baseball camp in the summer and I met some of my future classmates there, so I had friends before the new school ever started. After that I haven't had a moment where I didn't have any friends.
My phone only lasts for two days normally since I use it so much, but it could last a week easily if I wanted it to.
>>54491387
Because WP has no apps really
