Then went to £299 later but iPhones were always $799-$899 upfront which yes is cheaper than it is now. But they were also a lot cheaper to make

      The answer is simple. Apple was losing profit so they raised the prices because they knew 2 things.
      1. People thinking they have "The Best" will force them into buying the product wether they have the money or not.
      2. People use apple products not because its innovative, but because it is a status symbol saying your rich

And the fact the android software is like basically using a computer it's super simple to understand. What held them back for so long was the apple cloud and Apple ecosystem held all there files and photos but there are super easy apps made by Google that help u transfer files from ur Apple cloud to Google drive and such.

EXPANDABLE Memory, I have a 64gb Note 8 but have a 128gb memory SD card I bought off Amazon for 30 bucks..

      We Apple users don’t care about the other brands but it’s funny how all of the other customers from the other brands are hating on apple. I mean, it’s not apples problem that they aren’t happy with their laggy and trash devices.
      Hate comes from a reason. So they must be a reason why they are hating. They are frustrated or jealous.
      I’ve never seen an apple user hating on android products for no reason.
      Apples ecosystem is just perfect. No laggy software like android, you get support and updates.

    Anyone who has used apple products know the quality and robustness or the hardware is usually leagues above anything else (you could quote iPhone 6 as a counter) but in general every product I’ve bought off them has worked very well for way longer than other brands. Software especially Mac OS and IOS is on another level, it remembers your preferences, predicts what you need, and syncs across all devices automatically.
    They really do deserve the price, I think they are worth it

      Same here, Galaxy S6 Edge+ from 2015 and still feels like a very fast phone and no need to replace.
      My girlfriend's already needed to replace her iPhone 6S because system updates kept making it slower and slower. Apple deliberately keeps putting barely enough RAM in their products and then upping system requirements with every new system update. And forget about sticking to an older system because it doesn't take long before you'll get notifications saying: The version of this app requires at least iOS x.x to run. So what they're actually saying is: upgrade to the latest iOS and live with a slow and unresponsive phone, or buy a new iPhone and you're fine again.
