Reasons for and against apple products.
For: Excellent UI, easy to use, streamlined content, excellent support/warranty. sanitised content.
Against: Sanitised content!!!! alarm bells anyone? if the code isn't open source/based on industry standards, whats to stop them implementing great firewall of china for iPhones... I have heard they are going to be charging you extra for the ability to use wifi tethering as well... wouldn't be the first time ToS have changed, sony removing linux from ps3 anyone? UI is uncustomizable, they're tied to ONE computer, no additional storage if needed, no acting as USB mass storage, No Alternate Versions of iOS if you don't like the one you're given, the big one that should set peoples alarm bells off - apple tracks your movements and sells your information to governments and marketing agencies whether you like it or not, you agreed to the terms of service you're stuck with it. oh yeah, and the shitty "helicopter glass" that is constantly breaking... there is a reason that android phones have plastic screens for all you idiots that think apple products are amazingly well made... they don't break... also samsung make most of the components for them for gods sake! how can you possibly say they're better quality?!
By choosing an android phone, all of the against points are negated, and if you are even slightly tech savvy, you can use a ROM provided by a third party to make it smoother/faster, have better functionality and better battery life than iOS by a mile. Therefore, if people weren't uneducated isheep, they would realise the above and buy android.
