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.

Being honest, my preference is an Android because Apple devices have such limitations, but I don't understand people being filled with such rage and the assumptions that those who have an iPhone are sheep/show-offs etc.

Femme_Fatale wrote: » I dunno. That's understandable, but it also just looks like rage towards people who have an iPhone full stop. When someone is that irrational, I too can't help wondering is it jealousy.

BunShopVoyeur. wrote: » Well whatever about anybody else, I'm certainly not jealous. What is there to be jealous about? I had an expensive smartphone myself up until a few weeks ago, I wasn't crazy about the amount of time I spend browsing rubbish and decided to downgrade it. It's the weird accusations of jealousy that grate. It's unnecessary and childish.

Femme_Fatale wrote: » Nah I know plenty of people who aren't fans of iPhone/Apple aren't jealous and more than likely have a different type of smartphone themselves. I can't understand the big deal over Apple either. The stuff looks nice, that's about it IMO. Other brands look nice too. E.g. tablets: IMO it seems nuts to pay for an iPad when you can get a just-as-good (and less restricted) Nexus or Galaxy for far less. Macs are considered the best product for people who are graphic designers etc - that's about the only example of it making sense to fork out extra for an Apple product IMO. But people who get livid merely over others having an iPhone, and coming up with all sorts of assumptions about them, don't make any sense.

People practically foaming at the mouth saying the other is shite and that they are obviouslly retarded and crap like that. I mean, nobody should give a damn which you prefer. Ps3/ps4 is better though.
