[QUOTE="blazian87, post: 8311842, member: 574798"] Everything made in this day in age is made to be obsolete. Every company will make just the necessary upgrade to keep the consumer happy when actually they have the resources to make an amazing phone. We have an urgency to upgrade every year or 2 and they just keep spitting out "new" devices that are essentially the same except just a tad bit better.. When you weigh out the options, you think you're getting a better deal because it's virtually the same price as last year's except better. In the end it's all marketing and making us think it's the best when really it's just v2,v3,v4 and so on.. It's how the industry thrives. It's their business motto. If they made the perfect product, consumers would have no need to buy next year's model or the year after that. On another note, iphone's have plenty of flaws. They crash as well as any other device if you push it to its limits. I own plenty of computers and different smart phones even before smart phones were even popular. It's just evolution. I have an oldschool macintosh computer that was made in the early 90's and I was really fond of its simplicity as a little kid. What apple has going for them is what steve jobs established for us since the first generation ipod. It revolutionized the way we think and has set the foundation for a long future of growing technology. He has always been about integration and simplicity and everyone has tried following his footsteps. He's not the best, but he was one of the first to exploit it and he did it well..
