iPhones (like just about all apple products) are highly overpriced, overhyped, low quality and basically damn near impossible to repair. It's like buying some dumb Nike shoe for 1000 dollars, it really doesn't get you what you're paying for it.

Edit: not to mention the locking to the apple ecosystem. Now buy a mac laptop too with sup par quality components.

It all looks nice, sure, but that's about it.
