About LinkBacksI'd just like to say 2 things.
1: I don't want to have my phone ring and 30 different people check their phones.
2: Apple's sales, however awesome the number might seem, make up 11.7% of total phone market share. Android has 84.4%.

iTunes is a right piece of junk on windows.
I don't use anything else apple (I do have an old v1 ipod nano I don't use though)
I don't need a phone that costs upwards of £400 to make phone calls, sat nav, email and browse the web when a phone like the moto g does it all just as well (if not better).
My phone doesn't bend in my pocket or have a glass back that can be easily broken....
The requirement to use the phone how they want us to use it not how I want to use it, their built in software might be the best option but I want the option to choose another if I prefer it.
Didn't like the original OS, the new one looks better but still has the same issues - always seems convoluted to get the simplest things done.
Even now with my current phone I still don't like prodding at my screen with my fingers/thumbs... a stylus always felt/feels more accurate to me although I'm not going to shell out on a Samsung note either.
I never take notice of 'media popularity', ie the current 'apple can do no wrong' in papers/blogs etc when they seem to have had more issues with their software of late than google has with android....
I still use android although I'm seriously considering switching to Windows mobile, even with it's restrictions... I seem to use more of MS's software/services than anything else these days.
All of the above and just the massive hype about how good they are. Then 13 months down the line when ios7/8/9/x don't install/upgrade cos you don't have enough space cos Apple won't let you use expandable memory unless you shell out stupid money for it rears it's ugly head.
Oh and itunes. Possibly the worst piece of software (on windows especially) foistered on the world's population with no alternative...
Old puter - still good enuff till I save some pennies!
I hate Apple and their overpriced rubbish. My Moto G does everything I could want it to.
I just prefer an Android phone as you can get alot more use out of them if unlocked / rooted, plus when official support / updates stop you can still upgrade to the latest software w/o having to buy a new handset.
I hate walled gardens, so I will never own an Apple product. I go out of my way to avoid being trendy and detest anything that resembles a messianic cult, which Apple fandom certainly does. I also hate paying more for less, which has always been what Apple has offered, and would in any case never even consider buying a phone/tablet without expandable storage.
Don't like how restrictive they are and the tie-in.
Their business practises.
Price for what you get.
lol at these why pay more people, apple products hold their value when you sell on

I'm not a sheep, and my OnePlus One is an iPhone 6 Plus competitor, and I didn't have to sell a kidney to pay for it.

I don't sell on my computer/phones... I use it till it dies.... not all of us want to go through the hassle of selling a phone to someone else. Also no point updating something that works fine just to get 'the latest fashion accessory'lol at these why pay more people, apple products hold their value when you sell on

Apple avaids Tax meaning that we the Tax payer have to carry the cost of this company
They use slave labour at the cost of peoples lives
and I am not paying for a product that is a complete rip off
Apple = the biggest corporate scumbags I could ever speak off so no I am not going to be another sheep to scum like this

As an owner of a HTC One M7 google play edition I have a phone that is just as good with no limitations for less than the price of an iPhone 6. Oh and I've been enjoying that for 3 years way before Apple could get their product to market. I'm not a hipster ****.

I personally like having a phone for a reasonable price, without being restricted to certain apps and programs. Having a phone that is unique is also a bonus, as well as liking android and having android phones for years. Plus the new iPhones are too big for my small hands, making them harder to use.
I have a lumia 630, it costs me £7.50 a month and does everything I could ever ask for. Simples!

Why do Hexus feel the need to do an editorial/blatant advert piece? They must be paying you quite a bit for you to reason something this bare faced is acceptable.
Their tech is very behind times, their business practices are quite terrible, their ecosystem is a self-serving bubble and their kit is vastly overpriced. Why the hell WOULD you own an iphone?
