    What is with these people with their need to let everyone know they own an over rated, over priced piece of shit?

    You see these people on nights out standing around with their heads buried in their iPhone.

    I feel sorry for them for paying ridiculous money for a flimsy piece of shit.

    I wouldn't mind they are not even the best on the market anymore nor are they premium, other phones have far surpassed iPhones but the sheep still think they rocking something special.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,309 ✭✭✭T-K-O

    How are iphone users self-centred? :confused:

    Also, is owning any mobile phone materialistic...or is it just iPhones in particular? I have a Samsung, am I okay?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,533 ✭✭✭Jester252


    How can you tell if someone doesn't own an iphone?
    Don't worry they'll tell you.

    Is the Sevco iphone cover a style icon then?

    look at those idiots buying something they want.

    Better make an angry thread on the internet to show how different, cool and non-compliant I am.


    A good day all round.

    Snipey threads and responses like this make me hate this place sometimes.


    Who gives a damn if people have iPhones?

    At the same time, nobody is jealous of your fcuking iPhone.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,530 ✭✭✭Duck's hoop


    It's gone a long way past the point when they were 'cool'. They're just phones.

    Who doesn't have an iPhone or similar these days?

    I agree on people buying whatever phone they want.

    But I think people who buy the new, updated one every year or so are a bit mad. Is it really worth €400-500 every year for what I'm guessing is a small upgrade?

    Of course, as a technology fan I enjoy purchasing lots of different devices but these upgrades 5 - 5s and so on, are nothing more than clever marketing.

    People who fall into that trap are not exclusively iPhone customers.

    Only one thing worse than a full kit Celtic wanker playing with his iphone.

    Yep, a full kit Rangers cunt (no phone because they can't afford it and wouldn't know how to use it).


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 663 ✭✭✭laraghrider


    What ever happened to people buying a product that they want for what ever reason they want and everyone else minding their own fcuking business?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,136 ✭✭✭✭How Soon Is Now


    Its an ignorance thing more then anything.

    Theres a lot of stupid people with no great knowledge of technology who dont review products before they buy them. They see how the iphone is marketed and that there in your face all the time. I mean the way company's go on you would think you couldnt get apps on any other phone but the iphone......

    People have been brainwashed by Apple to believe the iphone is and has always been the best phone on the market as long as they have being selling it. Its like back in the day when people used to call all the games consoles a Nintendo because that was the brand installed in your memory!

    I see it happen all the time with smartphones now. Its not ''Can i use your phone?'' Its ''Can i use your iphone?''

    I had a conversation with this girl i know before shes not the brightest she was asking me where she should buy her phone and what it should be. I told her buy it online and because you only want to use it for certain things there are loads of options the basic user does not need to shell out 500 plus for a phone to do what they want to do!.

    Guess what phone she wanted and guess how much she actually really knew about it........ :pac:

    Id say 1 out of every 4 people who own an iphone or any of apples products in general is a sheep.

    So your saying that people who buy iPhones do so because they like them and are not sheeple like those others that are drawn by advertising and claims of ultra fast processor speeds and 9000 billion pixel cameras. Now who's the wanker. .

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,113 ✭✭✭shruikan2553


    The iphone users that annoy me are the ones that think you dont have an iphone because you cant afford it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,217 ✭✭✭✭B.A._Baracus


    I never understood why a person would buy an iPhone. Hey it's there money they can do what they want, but why pay so much for a phone? :confused: What can it do that a reasonably priced smartphone cant? (Sure you can get a HTC for €99)

    Take the iPhone 5 here at carphone warehouse. €679 euro! That's well over the average weeks wage. Heck, near double if you are on min wage. And for what? It's a phone.

    A phone can break, a phone can get lost or more importantly a rather expensive phone is far likely to get stolen or get you mugged. It's madness.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,222 ✭✭✭✭Will I Amnt


    This argument doesn't exist in this day and age does it? They can be got for no initial outlay and a reasonably priced if not ridiculously long contract. They are not in the least bit exclusive anymore. My mother has one, my next door neighbours kid has one, there's 2 of them buried in the back of a cupboard in my house.

    I'm guessing you just encounter a lot of **** in your day to day life, regardless of what phone they own.
    I've honestly never met anybody boasting about owning any brand of phone.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,798 ✭✭✭Local-womanizer


    Why worry about what kind of phone someone has? Baffles me that people get so worked up about trivial things tbh.

    And for the record, if you are out and see people on their phones, chances are there will be Samsungs and Nokias involved, but sure they are all sound I suppose...

    Yeah, really didn't think they were that exclusive at all.

    They are fairly useful to some people (I find it great for work).

    I've no emotional attachment to it and perhaps there's better smartphones out there but IPhone does the trick for me.

    I think it's fair to say OP is a prize prick
