In your bid to sound like a savage, you ended up making a complete and utter fool of yourself. Learn to comprehend and ask questions where necessary. If you've been following apple since the passing away of Steve jobs, you would note that nothing new or worthy of being termed an innovation has been made. No new feature, tech. Rather while the world moves on, they chose to stick to outdated designs just so as not to seem as copying android. Refresh rates that has being a feature on even low end and midrange phones, is what apple just introduced, and it's still limited to the pro series.
But please do well to tell me what new feature is on the iPhone 13 series that may be considered new or groundbreakinghuh
That's what I mean by apple died when Steve jobs died
you're the one sounding like a fool and you will remain a fool if you can't list at least two groundbreaking features of Samsung Galaxy s21
Re: The Iphone 13 Is Boring by 38Noob: 6:35am On Sep 16, 2021
Apple has been "dieing" since Steve died. Steve died in 2011..

Na 2021 we dey so, e neva die finish? grin you dey Nigeria, a country with one of the lowest purchasing power dey fool yourself, dey talk trash about iPhone wey dey hold commanding market share for USA, Japan, etc..

You nor rest buy your chinko Tecno..."iPhone 13 is boring" undecided Otu!

im not crazy about the cameras ahswear, its dis iphone 5 type of design that gets me. may xiaomi copy something like this ijn
The design is nonsense. It ain't aesthetically pleasing and not even hand friendly.
The only iPhone I can willfully buy is the iPhone 8 series. Why? Because the notch is another ugly thing in their current design.

I hate the tear drop too though. For the punch hole though, I prefer it being on one side (like Samsung S10) as against the middle (like the note 10).

Samsung o, Huawei o, Xiaomi o, none of them have integrated my idea of a perfectly aesthetic phone.
In short, I want a xiaomi phone with a Vivo nex 3 front design (pop up camera), a samsung display and an iPhone back design and camera.

You never owned the 11 pro. You are a Samsung fanatics and it’s a good thing! But trying to tear through Apple in other to make SS look okay is funny.

Just a little reminder, Samsung does chip for Apple and never was a phone producing company. They stole apple designs which they paid heavily for! I have used Samsung devices before and in all true sense cannot compare with apple devices.

It is like comparing XBOX with the PlayStation, they are world apart!
It's funny how you arrived at your conclusion. I own a Macbook pro 2015, an apple watch series 5 and an 11 pro. My last android was the poco x3 Nfc. I am not speaking from the perspective of a fanatic but rather from experience. In terms of hardware the iPhone is great and durable, but software wise there is less and less productivity save of course for the seamlessness of the ecosystem which I enjoy kinda.

I am not a fan of either Apple or Samsung, I go with what delivers and to be honest the iOS is not productivity oriented. Unfortunately I have to deal with this frustration as I have no other choice. Like I said earlier, once I get the money, I will likely get the S21 ultra for it's elegance and productivity while I retire the iPhone to photos and calls which unfortunately it is only good at. And maybe storing some secure and vital stuffs too.

If you have used both and you're a productivity oriented person like me, you will agree with me on this point but if not then I guess there's no point for this argument. The only thing I can say to prospective buyers is 'IT'S NOT WORTH THE HYPE' depending of course on what you intend to achieve.

One more thing. No phone is worth over a thousand dollars. It's totally insane how these guyz keep milking our pockets dry.

A15 bionic chip is the Fastest on any sMartphone in the world. Apple didn’t promise you innovation in the iPhone 13 but a faster processor. After all 11, 12, and 13 are the same prices. You can’t tell me Windows is more productive than MacBook lol. You are more funnier than I thought you would. I stopped using Windows in 2017 and I have been using Mac and Linux for programming, I will never use Windows.

I’m currently using the 12pro Max, and I have set up
My Apple Pay to preorder the 13proMax. No one is and no should expect any difference. Many users have not even explored the 11 to its maximum capacity so you won’t feel anything new.
How does the faster processor improve the life of an average phone user? You still don't get it. Check speed tests of these phones compared to their competition and you wouldn't dare call that an innovation. A few milliseconds ahead in opening apps is that what you call an innovation lol. I think you're actually the funny one here, and guess what it goes both ways even. No one wins out rightly.

For the Macbook, windows is more productive for my kind of work compared to MacOs hence the reason why I installed it. However the solid build of the Mac is great and shines above all the windows pc's I have used in the past. It's all about what works for you and makes your life easier that's the idea. I see no reason why one should be Loyal to one brand and act blind to the disadvantages associated when you can actually enjoy the goodness of both.

what's this productivity you keep talking because I'm 85% certain there's nothing you can through at the iPhone that it can't handle.

iPhones are not open source like the android devices. Yes, it does have its draw backs. But overall performance and delivery, there is no device out there that can match this.

It is imperative to note your points, which are clear true. Whether business oriented or not, I will go for any apple device over android as I have used both devices!

Again, innovation is beyond 20gb RAm that android packs. Technical innovation is the reduction of reliance on RAM and faster processor. A15 bionic chip with 4Gb RAm is better than Samsung devices with 16Gb RAM…
There is this technical Theory that the faster the processor, the more power it consumes, but iPhone is breaking that. As they continues to doll out efficiently powerful processors, the power consumption keeps reducing which is completely opposite of an android device. If this is not innovation, I wonder what it is. Oh fingerprint on screen? That’s not new, the typical Biometric device is a screen device that captures the picture of your thumb and with deep learning we are able to classify correctly. The foldable Samsung is one the Biggest invention so Far. But a faster processor is a big innovation on its own.


I won’t blame you though, you are just a typical smartphone user who is only concerned about Camera, Fingerprint placement and Screen resolution. Those are not innovations and never an invention. What are the innovations on Laptops, and desktopshuh? The processor like the core and Amd processor as well as the GPU processing where Nvidia is obvious winning. These are innovations, not the placement of camera or a different style of smartphones. Please grow beyond design freaks but system freak and Computing power. These devices are faster than some dedicated machines like the PlayStation…

The GPU on iPhone 13 is enough to beat the Sammy. I am a big fan of Samsung btw. So this my truth.

Modified: MacOs is always ahead of Windows. Sorry to say. Could you mention one advantage of using the windows over the MacOS. I haven’t seen. But I could tell you some technical advantages for me personally.

1. Parallel Computing and Distributed Learning; As a deep Learning Engineer and Programmer, I am majorly concerned about OS that can flexibly make my work easier. The Nvidia SLI cannot be so well integrated on Windows. While I prefer Linux for such task, MacOs could get me to do just that. But a Windows? Tofiakwa

2. Command Line: Bash and other scripting Languages. It’s completely bleeped on Windows.

3. MacOs is so easy to navigate, your files and data are secured than the Windows.

4. Integration with your smartphone is even another advantage. I can literally do my FaceTime, pick my calls and operate my phone without a third Party app unlike the Windows.

5. You can partition to own all the OS in the world. Just like what you did

Several others….

You just heard about Google Pixel? shocked

Yes, what you were told is correct... But you still didn't say why you're saving up for an IPhone though angry


Anyway, I take it that you're a camera freak. If camera is primarily what you look out for in a device, then no need saving up for an IPhone.
You can get a midrange Xiaomi, install gcam on it and you're good to go wink wink

I didn’t say it was an an innovation. Just as Apple didn’t mention it as an innovation. I said it is enough to topple any innovation to ever happen. This is the fastest processor on any smartphone in the world. A15 bionic chip is not meant for Smartphones only. I leave you to search for what this cheap can be even deployed for in the world of electronics programming…


Again, The prices of 11,12 and 13 are just as the same. So what exactly is the rant about being betterhuh
How are the prices of 11, 12, 13 the same.
