It's diminishing returns with iPhones at this point. There's nothing left to innovate, but people will buy

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Not just iPhones but smartphones in general. I haven't been excited about a new device since 2016 or so.

Show me a new phone technology that gives me 2 weeks of battery life betweens charges and I will start caring about smartphones again.

Do people buy phones according to how fast they can get to the last digit of pi anyway (or whatever tjey compute with) or just based on how tiktok looks?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago

....they base it on how tiktok looks, which is why this article is about how good the display is by measuring brightness, fps, etc.

When apple wins: Take that you poor little shits. look look look, loook at all the scores and benchmark stats.

When they don't: Does that even matter… so childish…, meh… , but blue bubble's still bae tho <3

Apple snobbery isn't really much of a thing in my region. I find it rather bizarre.

[–] brrt 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It hasn’t been that long since people called Apple products overpriced and pointing to spec sheets/benchmarks to ridicule the price/performance ratio. Now the tables have turned with Apple’s chips, so pick up a mirror and have a good hard look.

With that said everyone should just stop with the fanboying/fangirling and just use whatever the fuck they enjoy/gets the job done.

And whatever doesn't use bullying as a tool to get more customers.

Probably neither but to feel superior over their friends.
