If I pay for something, I want to do whatever the fuck I want with it, so a big NO for apple devices.

How paranoid apple is with everything requiring a password, a two factor authentication, push notifications, etc. And the lack of customization without having to jailbreak or go through an insane amount of menus.

I had iphones for a while and had to jailbreak them to get them to do what I wanted. Then one bricked and I got an android. I didn’t have to jailbreak it, I owned it, I wasn’t stuck having to use iTunes, and I wasn’t forced into thececosystem. Also, Smart Audiobook Player is android only.

I don’t want to pay for something that costs five times what’s worth (like all Apple products).

No phone is worth more than $150~200

Reason 1: I once owned an ipad, the experience with it was so bad that I stayed away from iphone.

Reason 2: I now have Mac for work. My experience with it is so bad that I’m staying away from iphone.
