I see people trading on their android devices and getting their account hacked but rarely see iPhones get hacked.  If you have ever submitted an app to apple you know the standards for submission - often taking more than a month to get accepted. To the developers/techy people on this forum it means nothing and pisses you off but for the other idiots (like me) we need limitations. Similar to Myspace and FaceBook, Myspace decided to give everyone the ability to edit their fucking page while Facebook limited it.  Soon people had put so much bullshit on their pages the shit ran so slow it became unusable. Regulation is good sometimes in life and if the decentralized Bitcoin gets adopted we need something that is safe for the idiots.

where can I see stories about people getting their accounts hacked because because of android?

Looks like you see more than me

"Studies have found that a much larger percentage of mobile malware targets Android over iOS, the software that runs Apple’s devices. That’s primarily due to Android’s huge global popularity and its open approach. Plus, Apple securely controls which apps are available on its App Store, strictly reviewing all apps to avoid allowing malware through."

LOL!!! With Jobs dead (the king of simplicity) Apple will eventually take a hit trying to follow the competition.  If Bitcoin is an option on Plaso I will trade my iPhone in for a Samsung. I promise!

I once hated iPhones like you all, then I got one. Now I realize how bloated an unorganized Android is. The simplicity and ease of use of my iPhone is unparalleled. It integrates with my Mac Pro so I can text from my computer, or continues working on a document or viewing a web page seamlessly. It connects to my car using carplay, and it wirelessly mirrors my phone onto my appleTv in my living room. All of this is built in with no extra cables and things that need to be bought. I had nothing but problems with my android phones, and windows phones just suck from top to bottom. So y'all can think what you want. I have heard plenty stories of ex android users loving their new iPhones, but never heard any ex iPhone users loving their new android. The only people I see talking shit about iPhones are android users that are just obviously uneducated, and have never owned an iPhone to begin with.

Before anyone says I got lured in to buying all these Apple devices, no... no I did not. I chose to buy them all because they work together and form a perfect eco system. Just like everything in technology is trying to do, trying to be part of a seamless easy to use ecosystem. Android does not nor probably ever will have this ecosystem.

You need to pay Apple if you want do aps, even if only for personal use.

It sucks if you are not a utter beginner that will only use it to read docs and watch movies

Most of the apps I use are free. My phone is jailbroken, so I do more than just an utter beginner. There is not one thing I need my phone to do that it cannot, but I cannot say the same for Android. I also rooted all my Android devices because the stock OS on android is way too bloated.

The only people I see talking shit about iPhones are android users that are just obviously uneducated, and have never owned one an iPhone to begin with.

In my experience, iPhone was better then Android phones till iPhone 4. Till then, it was more stable and the interface was smoother. Now, the software quality is about the same with the better Android variants. The hardware quality is now worse then the top-end Android phones. And not only the hardware speed, but also the overall build quality has deteriorated when compared to top-end Android phones.
I think that  iPhone would be a good phone if it would cost half of what it currently costs. It's not a bad phone, but it's just highly overpriced.
My biggest compliments go to Apple for their marketing tactics. They have built a loyal customer base, that defend their products with passion. Even going as far as calling people uneducated for being critical towards iPhone. They have worked magic with selling a product this overpriced, but still having a large loyal customer base.

I myself prefer not to use Apple's products anymore, just because they don't have the edge in quality, but only a higher price. Even if I can afford to use Apple, I would feel like a fool who is a victim of clever marketing if I bought something from their current line of products.

I hope that they come out with something new and innovative soon, that they could actually do better then others again. Until then, they should at least adjust their profit margin to more suitable levels

I fear that their innovation engine died of cancer in 2011. Just look what happened when he left/got canned in the 80s. Within a couple of years they had gone from being innovators to producers of drab grey boxes aimed at cad users. Now they are making phones that look like they were designed by Samsung (which Samsung tries to copy anyway) but they are not quite off the rails yet.

The big question really is how does Apple justify charging their high prices when their products are so pathetic.

My Sony XperiaZ Ultra retails for about the same as an iPhone but it is packed with high-end features.
I have even less love for Sony. Nearly every 3-chip camera I bought had dead pixels. But they had the best color for my needs so I dealt with it. My two Sony phones (one an Experia) both died within 2 months. IMO, Sony quality died with Betamax and Trinitron. I have a strong love/hate relationship with Sony. I have no love for Apple because they basically used the education system to inculcate children with their almost religious marketing.
