For sure. It continues to amaze me how people willingly give so much power to a company to the point that that company's business decisions regarding a 100 buck option really does drive them crazy.

Yet rather than switch brands because they're so upset, they continue to buy Apple products and be dominated by that power as if it's an unsurmountable force. Funny as heck to watch. And weird.


I would never give a company that much power over me. Its kind of scary how people don't question Apple at all.
 
I'm not 'grasping language' you're the one who can't explain what the word corrupt has to do with Apple building an immensely successful model of their iPhone that continues to sell in the millions.

I think I have but then it's subjective whether you regard a 16GB base model as being perfectly acceptable for a top of the line smartphone which will be on primary retail sale until late 2016.

Actually I said immensely successful. I made no claim as to its perfection or acceptability.
 
Sorry for the interruption...

Is there any way to see more than 25 comments on a page?

With this thread growing... I'd like it on fewer pages!
 
I hope we are looking at a 6c. Low end model with 16GB and the 6s will have 32.

Didn't Apple say the average person has 100+ apps during WWDC? Average app on my phone is 40-100MB. That's half of my storage, not including Photos, Messages, iMovie, Podcasts,  Music etc. I am constantly running out of space and having to delete things. Please make 32 the entry level model. I like the price point.
 
Lol. Not my mind or soul. I think people are perceiving this pricing strategy at odds with what they think of Apple over the years. A noble company that built insanely great products as a primary goal. They now see Apple as a regular corporation with the primary goal being profit and great products second. A company that has lost its soul.

Now I get it, you think Apple is corrupt because they don't live up to your delusions about what they were in the past.
 
What everyone complaining about 16GB storage is really complaining about is that the iphone is $100 too expensive.

Corruption? You realize 'corruption', like many words, has a specific meaning. What, in your mind, does corruption have to do with Apple producing a 16GB iPhone 6s?

Please explain to me what anything you've just written has to do with corruption.

You still don't explain what a 16GB iPhone has to do with corruption, in any of its meanings.

You think your mind or soul are being corrupted because Apple sells a 16GB iPhone?

So, your saying Apple is corrupt because they build a product that millions of people purchase?

I see what your saying is Apple Inc. is corrupt because they are building a device you don't like.

Other words with similar meanings weren't used, corrupt was used.

I'm not 'grasping language' you're the one who can't explain what the word corrupt has to do with Apple building an immensely successful model of their iPhone that continues to sell in the millions.

Now I get it, you think Apple is corrupt because they don't live up to your delusions about what they were in the past.

This is getting boring, like a broken record. Why not take a break?
 
* A 64GB Samsung S6 is $700 from Verizon.
* A 64GB iPhone 6 unlocked is $750.

So many people are wanting Apple to sell the 64GB iPhone6 at the base model price of $650. Does that make sense? You want Apple to sell their phones cheaper than Android phones.

What is there to question? Either you like Apple products (and buy them) or you don't (and therefore don't buy them). There's no morality involved here, just cold hard cash in exchange for a product which you were never obligated to buy in the first place.

No, that's not what this thread has been about. It was referring to Apple selling their base model, $650 iPhone with 32GB storage. Incidentally, that's what the other 3 major smartphone makers are doing with their flagships.

You did bring up another interesting point though. The S6 is actually $50 cheaper than the iPhone and the respective capacity models. If you're paying the "Apple premium", shouldn't you get at least the same amount of storage as the competitors' phones, whether you use that storage or not?

HAA all this time and apple still wont learn -- 32Gb should be default or 16GB FREE space not 8Gb being used for OS and leaves you with about 8 Gb usable space (bs)
 
You don't have to read them.

You need to stop picking one word in a conversation, and focusing that conversation on it. You completely missed the context of the comment and change the discussion around the word "corruption" . And you continue it for some 12+ posts......

It's hard not to read the posts, if you are reading the thread, and it derails the discussion which may be seen as trolling my some mods. Just a heads up.
