Sometimes you make sense.
Sometimes you make no sense.

Your argument is absurd.

First off, you're cherry picking since the vast majority of phones out
there are NOT iPhones, so you're ignoring the vast majority of owners.

You're literally cherry picking only the wealthy owners, and then, you
triumphantly declare that they're rich & intelligent in the same breath.

Then you compare that $1000 iPhone to a $45 Android and declare that not
only are the people who pay $1000 for something that can't even do what the
$45 Android can do, but that it lasts longer (you claim) by virtue only of
the fact that it costs $1000 while any old Android that costs $45 (you
claim) doesn't last longer - even as the build quality is vastly greater.

WTF?
Have you no argument at all that you have to make such absurd claims?

You're desperate to claim a $1000 iPhone has more functionality than a $45
Android when you can't even list any functionality that it supposedly has.

Why would someone pay $1000 for an iPhone that can't do what any $45
Android can? That's NOT an intelligent person's kind of decision.

What you're really saying is people who pay $100 for iPhones are stupid
since they could have paid $45 for an Android & gotten more functionality.

People who buy a Rolex aren't smarter than people who buy a Timex you know.
