Every time I hear people aimlessly bashing iPhones, especially about how iPhones are poorly designed crap made in Chinese village sweat shops, and how expensive they are, I laugh.

Apple has just under 615B market cap and give or take 150B in cash. Apple has some of the brightest execs and designers in the world, including the brilliant and recently acquired Marc Newson. Meanwhile Samsung is still stuck in the plastic era, and the rest of the world stuck with low ppi 720p phones.

Y'all can keep your Chinese OnePlus One (mind you, people were bitching so hard about Chinese phones like Xiaomi, ZTE, and Huawei for the longest time) because clearly some clever marketing, penetration pricing, and flagship specs is what Android fanboys are all about.

I have absolutely nothing against Android, I actually love certain Android phones like Sony's Xperia line and LG's new G3, but sometimes I just feel like Android fanboys have turned into what Apple fanboys were like a few years back.

As for the 6 Plus bending, the 5s bended as well, as well as the 5. What I don't understand is how people manage to bend these phones. Unless your thighs are made of steel and are hella curvy, I wear skinny jeans and I keep my 5s in my front pocket all the time, I have never bent my phone, I also have hockey thighs. Also, the only customers that ever came in with bent phones that I've had to deal with were young ladies, presumably keeping their phones in their back pockets so...I don't know what you guys are doing if you manage to bend your phone.

And in the rare case that you actually somehow do manage to bend your phone anytime within one year, bring it to any Apple Store anywhere in the world and get it instantly swapped out, or with AppleCare+, anytime within 2 years. What happens when you break your Android phone? Have fun dealing with an online customer service rep who really couldn't care less with your RMA process.

Services > specs
