This year's iPhone hoax involves a microwave oven and the new iPhone 6.
Apple has officially commented on why its older devices may not perform as expected.
Sometimes Apple loses sight of what they think consumers want versus what we really want.
I was on the fence about the Iphone8 or the new Samsung but that new Galaxy is looking damn good right now... peace apple!
This is more Apple BS. When Apple launches a phone, they try to get as much sales as possible, even at the expense of their own customer base. A new iphone is released and suddenly your phone starts working like crap, obviously it makes the new iphone more appealing. They've been doing this since the original iphone. Funny how this isn't a problem for any other phone manufacturer.
I think it's more that continually evolving software updates bloat and eventually render the device sluggish. New code is written to take advantage of new hardware, at the expense of owners of the older models.
so then why even bother updating the older hardware if thats the case. i mean, its not like the older OS is not safe or unstable so why the need to update it. everything works just fine as is. ever heard if it aint broke.....
Several Chinese iPhone users have claimed that their handsets caught fire or exploded, according to a Shanghai consumer watchdog which called on tech giant Apple to address the complaints.
iPhone 6 and 6 Plus owners worldwide are being plagued by “Touch Disease” — a display issue that causes a flickering gray bar to appear at the top of their screen.
Wonder how many apple sheep tried this.
The fact that LAPD and others had to issue statements in this respect is quite telling as to the tech sophistication level of the average iPhone user.
The average iPhone user doesn't have any tech sophistication. That's why they own an iPhone :p
No, no... They have it all wrong! The proper way to charge the phone is to stick it between your butt cheeks and run around the block a couple of times! The special coils in the phone respond to the jiggling motion and should fully charge your phone within 5 minutes and even less time if you are fat (more jiggling).
There should be a Darwin Award sub-category for people who are dumb enough to fall for obvious hoaxes like "Wave."
