You realize if said "fanboy" bought any flagship it would be the same conversation.
I appreciate my "OLD" apple gear (MacPro, MBPs, iPhones, ipAd, iPod…) - but I NEVER was fanboy of any brand. I even never owned a Samsung Phone, but bought a S4 longtime ago for my daughter (she was happy with a S3mini before as well as with the S4 since years now).
I just want to discuss in an intelligent way - adults discuss things aside of ridiculous "exaggerated over-loyalty". I am not married with apple, I just use their products. And I am well-aware that the once customer-oriented policy of apple has turned against their customers. NOW it´s other brands and companies that take over the image of the 1984-add of apple. apple is getting less and less customer-friendly and less and less innovative. They are on the "best" way to get even worse than MFST ever was - if they do not stop that way they are going since some years, the very beginning was 2011/2012 … it is interesting that this was just one year after Steve jobs died...
Earning the most money of all enterprises in the world may make their shareholders happy - but it has nearly nothing to do with quality. Look at Microsofts crap they sold for decades!
Earning the most money means to ignore customers needs as much as possible and to spend more money on marketing/brainwashing than the others. Creating a sort of religion with millions of lemmings or brands-zombies. Tragically, apple arrived there already years ago.
I´d like to see apple going back to the roots in caring about IMPORTANT things, not thinness nor absolutely ridiculous gimmicks like "NightShift" and at the same time releasing OS with more and more bugs...

reported for insults.
Let me laugh at Samsung's "high level smartphones" or iPhone 6copy of Samsung phablets.
Since when is "fanboy" an insult??
It is a common description for people with exaggerating "loyality" to a brand, always defending "their" brand even if this was evidently wrong and moreover insulting people who have courage enough to criticize things that have to be criticized. ( apple "Loyalists" joining in to the ignorant and ridiculous statements of apple like: "You´re holding it wrong!" or "There are no GPU problems with the 15" MBP at all" and so on and on and on ...)
I did contradict to the legend of "customers still willingly paying high prices for iPhones" - and all this with clear and convincing OBJECTIVE ARGUMENTS.
Sadly, you could not give any argument against that - but claimed an "insult" instead. This talks more about you than about me, I think…
