Who got the new iPhone?

[Mello_SixtyNine]

Just got mine today. Rose gold 128gig 6s plus.

I can finally put all my stuff on it. Also, it's just massive...the screen alone is larger than my entire iPhone 5s. No more eyestrain.

Congratulations on over spending for aesthetic values.

And Chinese under total Communist rule made 17¢ an hour building that phone under some of the most draconian internet censorship on earth, so you could brag so mindlessly on an internet porn board, while Apple and the CPC make even more billions.

Congratufuckinglations, sell out.

Last time I checked, your android phone was made there as well as most of the other stuff you buy at the store, so pot-kettle-black you fucking hypocrite. Also, it's not 17¢ an hour, it's a little over $3 per hour.

While that would suck getting that wage here, it's not bad considering their cost of living is not as high over there. Also, many of those employees come from third world countries. Three bucks an hour is a lot better than what they could get in their countries.

I didn't overspend at all. I sold my 2-year-old iPhone 5s for $150 and the rest of the cost was paid with my Apple dividend. Also, the dual-core A9 chip crushes those 4-8 core android chips. Here are a couple of recent test results from Anandtech if you don't believe me:

I don't own a phone, slaver.

I just assume that everybody in the world has one except me.

Not me.

 

[Mello_SixtyNine]

So do you guys communicate by smoke signals or are you using snail mail?

 

[Mello_SixtyNine]

So let me guess, the computer you just made that post from came from some magical fairy land....

Nope, that came from China too hypocrite.

Revel in your gluttony, slaver.

Let me guess, did you carve your computer from a magical block of oak? Is it powered by a combination of patchouli oil and good vibes?

Yes, Anandtech bench marks with absolutely no software/battery mods etc. etc.

Look, if you want an inferior choice of software, business support, and modifications, go ahead and enjoy your pretty looking toy. I choose not to support a company that wants to lock me into little choices.

What inferior choice of software are you talking about? Android phones need more ram to help deal with all of those apps that are not optimized for the 200+ different flavors of the Android OS.

There are over 1.5 million apps on IOS. Most apps come out on the iPhone first with Android apps second if at all. One reason for that is because most developers get their apps bootlegged by Android users instead of paying for them.

My iPhone maybe "locked in" as you say, but the hardware & software are optimized to work efficiently. That and has not been riddled with malware like Android phones.

I'll definitely enjoy my iPhone, but it's definitely not a toy.

Hate my iPhone storage fills far to fast and I have everything removed I possibly can, Battery dies way to fast for sitting doing nothing all day. Moved apps and everything else to Galaxy Tabuch better product will get the Galaxy phone to match

Oh you mean like the ton of unreliable softwRe Apple sinks in the phones no storage upgrade to deal with their space sucking useless crap that's stuck there... Wasted money and time Apple has sucked since the 80's

You don't quite understand the word "gluttony", do you?

But, I digress...

I currently house a number of computers, 1 of which serves for old parts, and the others, which run just swell, I didn't spend a penny to purchase: no $$ to Communist China there.

The newest cmptr I built and doesn't have a Communist Chinese part in it; processor from Malay, motherboard from Taiwan, case built in the USA by a German co., SSD & RAM made in America, PS & DVD from the old computer & an old 23" monitor which still works fine - again, not a penny to the Communist Chinese.

Wanna try again?

You do know that the vast majority of sockets on motherboards are made by Foxconn, in China, along with other parts on boards, capacitors in PSUs, etc. etc.? So you're absolutely sure about all of that?

No no, I am sure you will lie and say you sourced out every bit of information.

You do know that Foxconn manufactures in other countries besides Communist China, right? You do know that Foxconn is a Taiwanese company and manufactures there too, right? And you understand when I posted I included used pieces, for which I didn't pay a cent, in my build (PS, DVD), that means I didn't spend a cent with the Communist Chinese for that stuff either, right?

Do you believe processors aren't built in Communist China? Do you believe cases aren't built in Communist China? Do you believe SSDs and RAM aren't manufactured in Communist China?

Why do you so naturally assume your ignorance is anything but your own?

We both know why: you're a simple, biased punk with a perpetual little boy boner and you just can't help it.

Do you at least like Chinese food?
Kung Pao Chicken is awesome.
