This board has been looking more and more like a place for Apple haters to unload. It's getting very hard to find thoughtful and intelligent posts...even those I disagree with.
Much of the garbage posted here is childish, pedantic rants that have no semblance to an "iPhone" discussion group....

It's getting very tiresome....

This was a very "thoughtful and intelligent" post...
 
Probably apples most polarizing phone. I can respect people venting. If you look st the lengths people have been around and a quick click on their post history you can easily weed out the people here just to troll.

That said, making the same argument (ie “the notch ****ing sucks”) in every thread about the phone irregardless of it the subject is even close to that is a little pointless.

Honestly this is the nature of an extremely popular forum. Only niche forums end up being super rosy and nothing but positivity. Even those not so much these days

I don't like the 6 series (6/6s/7/8) and the X for the same reason. If you've been around these forums long enough you know what reason that is.

But hate is a fairly strong word. I just disagree with Apple's design direction.
 
Just the nature of this forum. it's simply a function of it's popularity. If it was a niche product, you would have a small group of supposed 'experts' aka (know-it-alls), who hog the forum, and spend their life there. If you could put up with that, which is actually easy with filters, you get the type of thing you want. Again, it's a numbers thing.

Here you get huge amounts of bizarre traffic. Very entertaining 😀

note: filtering out the 'experts', works, but makes it difficult as everyone's posts are directed towards them.

You should visit the iOS sub-forums. 😉
 
I was thinking of writing a post like this. It’s ridiculous how many posts are blatantly just running down Apple products.

I have an iPhone X and can’t fault a single thing about it.

They must be on Samsung’s payroll.

Unless you wanna blame the ruskies lol

I agree with OP's post. Although, not really accomplishing anything. This is what you get on Forums with 10's of thousands of members. Just ignore the pathetic ones and move on--😉
