iPhones are a fucking scam * 3
    #18983293 - 10/15/13 08:38 PM (10 years, 3 months ago)

Having a colored iphone is not an innovation. We have been painting things for 50,000 years. Can't people see what a marketing scam that is? What a joke.

How is them coloring it a scam? They are just making it more appealing to people who like some vivid visual stimulation.

it's a scam because you could have had it all along and they're giving it to you now to make it seem like an upgrade when it really isn't. anybody else on the same page or is this just me?

Not supporting flash in and or itself takes away 25% of the functionality that a smartphone should have IMO.

I can't see myself ever buying one of their phones, but they do seem to put out a lot of well designed stuff and I can respect that (not that there haven't been some flops over the years too.) They must be doing something right if so many people are buying them.

For me a phone has to be cheap first and foremost, any added functionality is just a bonus. My phone was $130, if it gets lost or run over by a bus I'm not going to be too broken up about it.

Android and WP also dropped Flash support some time ago.

The real scam is this fingerprint nonsense.  Biometric security is inherently insecure and surprise surprise it was hacked within days of release.  And this 64 bit bullshit.  Like phones will be able to utilize 64 bit architecture any time soon.

Damn I guess I need to do some research before I get a new phone. The iphone 5c commercials were just pissing me off.

Actually IIRC it was Flash that dropped mobile support as a whole not the other way around.

I just got my iPhone 4s last week and am satisfied so far.  I'm gonna break it in a year and get a 5 for free.

I Have a Goophone; it's pretty cool. Gotta find a way to remove the default launcher and use holo permanently though.

They are such a scam, thank you.  My roommate is a computer science major/nerd and has told me how little they change/add to the new iphones when they come out.  They are like 90% similar.  And their screens still break every 88 days and you can't fix them without giving them butt loads of money.  I don't understand why people still buy their products.  Marketing and main stream following at its finest.
