>Foldable
I'm 100% sure that Apple said it will never make a foldable phone because that's just a gimmick
100%

And? Companies say one thing and do the other all the time, just look at Sammy mocking the notch, the removal of the jack etc than doing the same two gens later.

That means apple will release a worse version of the first foldable 10 years after it was launched and charge $3500 for it.

Having used my ipad pro m4, I cannot agree with you anon. It is incredible how fucking retarded the design choices in it are.

Every aspect of it. Want to throw some music on their fast, too bad, no drag and drop for you. You're forced to use some shit software instead or use something like kde connect to send files over wifi to the device. Want to set a custom ringtone? Too bad, no drag and drop the file in a folder and selecting it for you. You have to use fucking garage band to make a 30 second clip of it then you can use it as a ringtone. Further the forced use of gestures to do basic shit is beyond annoying. Want to go back to your homescreen, swipe up, but not too far up as that will show you your open apps. Sorry, not open, apps it has saved a thumbnail of and will have to reopen anyways since iOS uses too much ram just running. Want to adjust your brightness, you have to swipe down but only in a specific spot because fuck putting it on the notifications bar. Want to plug in a USB to copy some files, lol no get fucked. Here's the best one, want to organize your apps, no fuck you, the folders will dodge you like the click the monkey banner ads from the late 90's instead of just staying the fuck still so you can drop that app in the folder. Or better yet, for whatever fucking reason, landscape and portrait icon layouts are independent and if you add a new icon in either landscape iOS resets your fucking arrangement in the other orientation in god knows what order. Every fucking time it does this. There is no way to lock your layout, just get fucked is apples answer.
I have never had such a terrible mobile OS experience. Fucking windows CE was better and that was a terribly low bar.

iphones are like if bmw had a worse driving experience, worse features, and worse ergonomics compared to nissan. it should be the other way around for the price but normie cattle will buy anything that will make them cool

My android died an I bought an iPhone. It's by all measures a worse more limited phone. But I won't be coming back to android because I'm extremely paranoid about losing my phone or it getting stolen and I like apple's cloud backup so that makes up for everything else for me.
So yeah apple phones are uber shit but they do have a use case.

I don't it's that big of a deal to drag and drop your music into the music app window instead a folder window, you only press one extra button to make the transfer start.

Want to set a custom ringtone?
No I don't. But you can open it in garageband on your phone and choose any 30 second segment you want. Personally I would rather have an entire song and be able to choose the 30s at will, rather than have to cut the 30s beforehand.

Sounds like you have some kind of physical disability.

>Want to plug in a USB to copy some files, lol no get fucked
You can plug in all manner of storage devices. I personally use a USB-C drive, an SSD and a card reader.

No one else has a problem with icons because no one is switching back and forth. Pick the aspect ratio you prefer and stick with that.

My android costs 150$, if a pickpocket sees me using it they're not even gonna bother to steal it.
It still runs social apps and although it struggles with 3d games they are still playable.

Also, foldables? Why are they pretending this is new? It's been in the market for over 5 years now. Holy shit, Apple is so behind.

Isn't Apple known for their low security in their clouds? Like, when 3 people who were not even from tech just start sending e-mails pretending to be Hollywood actresses to Apple, claiming they lost access to their account, and the support immediately gives them access, causing the single largest leak of nude material in internet history?
If I recall, Apple still claims it was not their fault and they were never punished.
