If it’s a tool for communication, get the 13/14. If it’s a whole experience for you, return it, and get the iPhone that helps you get that purchase high.

iMessage and FaceTime. I have an Android phone that’s my main and personal phone. Side phone for work is an iPhone.

It’s like a stock. Perception of value. Once the dominance iMessage is removed, you’ll see iPhone values begin to drop. It’s the beginning of the end of iPhones. Which is why they removed the SIM tray. Removing a slight amount of freedom. Just slight, in case people want to be curious with Android on the whim.

iMessage and FaceTime. That’s it. Literally. My group friend moved to Signal/WhatsApp. So we chat and video chat on those platforms. It’s just the people outside of the group that becomes an annoyance. Android is superior in every other way.

I have an iPhone 15 Pro for work, my personal phone is a Galaxy S23/23 Ultra.

Just slap a 🩹 on it and keep on trucking.

On a serious note, put that phone out of its misery. And the next phone you get doesn’t know what’s coming. 😧

Sure “the app” did it. 😂

These thieves do this often it seems like. I wonder if they have someone working inside Apple that’s assisting them.

My group of friends switched to Signal and never looked back. iMessage is for peasants and sheep…at least that’s what the Silicon Valley elites think of iMessage. iMessage is for the general population.
