Yeah I agree, wish I could go back but I was sort of forced into it with my phone upgrade. Oh well. Was only $200 for the upgrade from a flip phone to an iphone 5 :/ | ||

Or when it costs 200$ to upgrade. I'm willing to bet Shake could have gotten an Android smartphone for under 200$. | ||

I'm willing to bet Shake could have gotten an Android smartphone for under 200$. This is all untrue. It's straight up $199 on contract without having to do an upgrade. The adapter, usb cable, and earbuds with mic come with the phone. | ||

No one really wants to keep bringing along their cable for each of these. wat. you're just making up edge use cases now. If I really need to charge my iphone in the car (which I don't because listening to music via a normal 3.5mm audio cable uses an insignificant amount of battery), I'll just unplug the cable and put it in my pocket. It's not that hard. You can dislike the product or the company, but arguments that the iphone is too expensive is baseless.

I can get a shitty phone for free too. Notice how I specifically said "high end androids". The Samsung S4 is $199, so is the iPhone 5s. I'm sorry but your pricing argument is completely invalid. | ||

If you think $199 is too expensive (which I have no problem with), then you should be complaining about high end smartphone prices, not specifically the iphone. | ||

I have phone to call and get call Sometimes I have phone to text message and get text message y my phone need be smart 4 that? Mine does that real good and it was also way cheaper and the battery still runs for weeks after those years cleary great craftsmanship and in true samsung fashion the charger cables are all pretty much the same so if u need additional one just take from previous phone/somebody else that ever had a samsung in his life. Only downside is the phone is dumb but tbh i cant imagine smartphones are all that smart in the first place | ||
