re: Why does Apple string its fanbase along

IPhones have a great build quality but the software is too bland and limited/restrictive by Apple with a locked OS. Therefore I chose android that allows the user the power and control. Android is a very intuitive and multi-faceted OS that suits my taste for the savy, software privy community. I understand that not everyone fits that mold and that most women, nerds, and a handful of regular Joes prefer Apple. Nothing wrong with this.

There are Android phones on the market that trump the iPhone in hardware and are also on par with build quality. This is another reason android was an easy choice for me. Now, Apple making a 128GB model will help them, but those ridiculous prices won't. Another downfall to their line. They sure are proud of their shite.
