Apple users bash new iPhone 15: ‘Innovation died with Steve Jobs’::Smart phone fans are griping about Apple's new devices since the arguably anti-climactic announcement of the forthcoming iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus on Tuesday.

Premium Android phones are just as expensive as iPhones and come with worse software quality and shorter support periods.
$Maybe in the us but elsewhere the apple prices are nuts. I bought new s23 for 800$. There is no fucking way I'd pay 1200$ for much worse iphone.
Agreed, the prices for Android are much better when non-US tariffs are involved.
Except you can buy a pixel A series which will work just as well as the most expensive iPhone just slightly slower. I'm at about 3.5 years on a $350 pixel and still it's the best phone I've owned. Yes I know you can buy cheaper iPhones too but aren't they phasing that out? Like you now normally would have to buy a 1-2 year old model to get a price similar to that. My pixel was brand new and 4-5 months past release I think
The bugs on the PIxel 6 (returned after 2 weeks) and now with Android 12 on a Oneplus phone have me seriously thinking of buying an Iphone next time. Despite the fact I'd rather stay with Android, I'd make the switch and pay $300 more every three years for a phone that is relatively trouble free with decent support.
With 5 years of support too
Base iPhone is midrange device, not a flagship.
