That's genuinely one of the things people look for; iPhones are incredibly dense designs, in a very sleek, smooth, light package, and people love them. A very basic phone case and a screen saver adds nearly half the OE thickness of the phone to the package, and look how many people forgo those, even on a phone that's $1500. If I added that much thickness to a phone that started out at .5" thick, it would end up feeling like I was carrying a brick on my pocket all the time.
I would still take the brick with replaceable battery though.
apple idiots buy whatever apple tells them to because they care more about the artificial status symbol of having the latest apple logo'd bullshit than they care about having a good or decent product.
Yeah, no. I'm an Android user, and have been for about a decade, but Apple makes good products. I think that Apple is overpriced, I don't like their walled garden, but they're still good. My wife had an iPhone 8 up until this year, and I'd gone through multiple Samsung and other phones in the same time period that all died due to hardware failures.
I wasnt saying you were, I was saying in general.
Samsungs phones fell off a cliff after the 9, imho. I would never buy another samsung.
Apple artificially destroying batteries to make you buy more phones, sooner, should have been the nail in the coffin of that company if people actually cared about the products and not the artificial status symbol.
