For the money, Apple can kiss my ass. How many features do you really need? What superficial horse shit!

I have a 7-yr-old iPhone.
Does exactly what I need it to do with minimal muss, fuss. No bells, whistles, extra stuff to show off. I get compliments on my "old school" equipment. Kinda like my Porsche 914. |

Kids at work couldn't belive how small it was. It actually fit in your pocket. Now there's a novel idea! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif) I only got rid of it because it was 3G and I found the network was limiting 3G bandwidth in favor of LTE. It had slowed down to virtually nothing. I can't understand for the life of me what it is with software updates that think it is acceptable to Fuch with the settings of my phone. Best thing about the iPhone 4 was when Apple stopped supporting it with those Fuching updates that jack up your phone setttings. |

QUOTE(mepstein @ Apr 6 2021, 08:40 AM) ^ Well, I'll be. Thanks for the heads up. Looks like they actually built the iPhone I was hoping they would. A smaller/better one instead of bigger/better. I may actually upgrade willingly for the first time in more than a decade. |

A smaller/better one instead of bigger/better. I may actually upgrade willingly for the first time in more than a decade. It’s actually the one my son has now. He likes the small form factor a lot. He used window for work (finance) and has owned android phones so he doesn’t hate any platform but is very pleased with the new mini. I like a huge phone screen since I use it as my primary computer. |
