On top of that, they make good, long lasting phones with ample OS support. I’m 5 years now on this phone, and my partner’s phone is 6 years old. And I use my iphone A LOT.

She wants to replace it with a newer one, but doesn’t want to wait 3 months for it to arrive, so she just said, naaaah, I’ll wait until next year. Hopefully by then they’ll have a USB-C port, but I’m not holding my breath.

Finally, since the phones are still decent, they’re actually worth quite a bit. I got the battery replaced for very little.

Apple does some dumb shit, but they also get a lot of things bang on.
