A another feather in Apple's cap of woes, my issues with apple are:

1) Overpriced: While some Apple products outperform others, many are just pricey status symbols.

2) Walled Ecosystem: It's a no-go for developers. Why can't I write a simple program and run it on my phone without jumping through hoops?

3) Fragility: Apple could make their devices more durable without increasing costs. Instead, they opt for fragile designs that aren't easily repairable.

Honestly, it's like they're begging for a downfall and Id short their stock if I could.

1) Once you consider resale value, total cost to own an Apple product is often at par or lower than a comparable Android/Windows product.

2) I’ll mostly give you this one, but I do enjoy not getting calls from my iOS-using grandmother about “they told me I needed this new store thing for candy crush”, like I did when she had an Android tablet

3) Pretty easy to repair the breakable bits in an iPhone. If iFixit can sell $29 battery tool kits, that seems like a pretty low bar.
