I'm a huge fan of Apple.
I've been using the iPhone for 6 years now, went through the few generations of iPhone. Started from the iPhone 3GS to now, the iPhone 6S. Now, I'm also using my MacBook Air most of the time. I put my Acer laptop in the cupboard, and yes it has been collecting all the dust ever since I got my Macbook Air sent to me all the way from the US. Been through a lot with Apple, I can say.
My family, including most of my cousins and uncles and aunties, are a huge fan of Samsung. Some of my friends are huge fans of Samsung. The best way that I can think of to describe their love for Samsung would be... how much I love Taeyang and how I would stand up for him whenever people diss him, that's how much they love their Samsung gadgets.
Yesterday, my uncle wanted to re-contract his telco plan and he was planning to get the S7 so he asked for my opinions. So I told him that I'm not good with gadgets so I don't really know. My cousins heard our conversation and they were like,
"Samsung is better than iPhone."
"iPhone not good la, Samsung better."
And they started questioning me like, "Kakak why do you use an iPhone?"
I don't know why, but it seems like this is the problem with people who use Samsung. They always tell people who use Apple to stop using them. Rarely, I hear people who use Apple telling people who use Samsung to stop using them. Of course there are those Apple fanatics who would do so. Honestly, I get annoyed sometimes when people tell me that I'm making the wrong choice for using Apple.
Is Apple really that bad? Well, I used Samsung before I started using Apple. I also have a Samsung tab (which I don't even use because I don't really need it, it was given to me for free lol) and I have come to the conclusion that I love Apple more than Samsung.
Do people who use Samsung feel bitter that they're not using Apple so that's why they kept telling me that Samsung is better than Apple?
Samsung offers so many features that I don't even need. I don't need the Beauty cam when there are so many Korean/Chinese apps that offer the same thing. Plus, iPhone's camera is pretty good. Just compare those using Samsung and Apple on Snapchat.
Samsung does not have Apple Music which I honestly think need a lot more improvement to be on par with Spotify (kinda regret unsubscribing to it!) but Apple Music is good 'cos they offer more songs than Spotify.
Oh, and most of my Samsung friends have problems with their phones after having them for about 2 years. Either the battery problem, or this on/off restart problem. Just so many problems. Well, I had those problems too, but I would like to say all those were mainly my fault because I have this habit of using my phone right after washing my hands.
I love my iPhone, I love my MacBook. My previous iPhones still function well, I just bought the newer iPhones because I wanted better selfies. (yes, I'm quite vain.) My MacBook has been with me since early 2014, that's pretty long. My previous laptops didn't even last more than 2 years.
So, really. What is so bad about Apple?
