The 16GB iPhone is NOT a ripoff

[lordofthereef]

And there would be people who would be adversely effect by a 32GB limit also.

Probably so. We can discuss that when it happens though.

You're not defending Apple. You're spewing illogical arguments to come to unrelated conclusions. I mean come on, either you're an idiot or you genuinely think that increasing Apple's profits amounts to one of its products being great for consumers. And you don't listen to reason and logic and instead come up with more non sequiturs to come to new conclusions that are unrelated to the last conclusions. You've gotten to 28 pages off of absolutely nothing. You've basically defined what a troll is. (Again, unless you're just an idiot.)

We are having a debate and a good discussion. I've learned some very good points from those 'arguing' against me.

This is not trolling. This is debate and a healthy exchange of thoughts and ideas. If this debate or topic does not interest you feel free to ignore it.

Yes and mainstream users download 1GB games....NOT.

You are describing a power user not the mainstream average Joe on the street.

The average Joe just uses his phone to take a few pictures, email, text, facebook, twitter, and stream some music and videos. They do not buy 1GB games or download movies to their phone.

I think the average joe would want to play asphalt 8 or other leading titles, sadly due to apples greed at wanting to save money on putting 32GB in entry level this will limit the entry level buyers and you are supporting this by defending apples bad decision. It is a good decision for their profit margin to put in cheaper 16GB storage but the consumer and average joe loses out and is limited in their use of the device

I wish I could ignore it, but it keeps rising to the top because instead of looking for a job you're posting here constantly.

No one is forcing anyone to buy Apple products.

The King would put you in jail if you didn't pay taxes and the mob would burn your store down if you didn't pay protection money. What a horrible comparison.

Certainly no worse many of the other analogies and comparisons that were being made throughout this thread because they were apparently deemed to be applicable and useful.

HEADLINE: iPhone user complains that 16GB is not enough.

HEADLINE: BMW 325 buyer complains he can't fit his 6 person family in his car.

Lesson is simple.

1. Estimate how much storage space you are going to need.
2. Buy a phone that meets that storage requirement.
3. If the iPhone is too expensive get an Android.

I provided FACTS that support my opinion that 16GB is not a rip off.........for the mainstream customer.

Now for any random guy even a 128GB base iPhone may be a rip off....to him.

Those are all facts, they just don't demonstrate what you assume they do.

Thank you for telling us that we shouldn't be complaining about something...in a long thread that complains about other users complaining.

so what direction would you like Apple to take?

I could write a novel about that, but that would certainly be off topic
I'm also not in the mood to explain Apple's flaws (surprise, they're not perfect! ) to their biggest fan

I never heard anyone else say the 6+ stutters, crashes, screen freeze, poor touch screen. You probably had a defective unit.

My 6+ runs as smooth as butter.

Except it does. Especially when switching between multiple safari tabs or running multiple apps at the same time which exposes the pathetic 1gb of RAM. Sure the 6+ is smooth - when it's used for texting.

I ordered 16gb because it is enough for me especially now $0.99 for iCloud Ill be just fine.

All I use is browsing, texting, calling and just 1 game "clash of clans" and few other apps like bank app.

$0.99 for 20gb x 12 months = $11.88 a year. Totally works with me.
