    iPhones are like cruises.. they're for unadveturous people who prefer the guided tour and don't really have the desire to
    Do you have a single example? Because.. again.. my Android phones just work.

    iPhone is the guided tour - you can't roll a gutter ball because the bumpers are always engaged. Yeah, this is appropriate for some people. If you only need 50% of what the hardware is actually capable of, or if the risk of you breaking it because you have too much access is high, Apple is probably the way to go.

    You want examples from an unadventurous, middle-aged divorcee on a guided tour with bumpers trying to impress someone? ;)

    Yes, I have examples, but I'm not so sure the aim of asking for them is simply to hear them, so much as it would be to pick them apart or invalidate them or point out PICNIC (if you're in the tech industry you know what this means lol).

    I like what I like; and I'm secure in that. My day job (as well as my life outside of work for that matter LOL) is and has been sufficiently complex that when it comes to non-work-related personal tech, much like my vehicles, I don't need it to be the fastest or most powerful or most configurable....I just want it to work. My personal experience has been that iPhones/Macs have largely been more reliable. If you disagree I'm fine with that. :)

    I'm just.. a data driven guy. I appreciate personal preference, but the data doesn't back up the idea that iPhone is more reliable than a competitive Android device.

    I'll drop it. :)
