I bought my first smartphone during my last year in secondary school. It was a roughly used Samsung Galaxy s4. I was very impressed with everything about this phone except that I had to charge it every 30 minutes.
It wasn’t long before I swapped it with a slightly used Samsung Galaxy s5. This one was far better than the s4. The camera was so good that I could see John Cena.
All the time I was enjoying my new phone, I thought the only problem I had with it was the battery. This was what I believed until my screen burst upon falling and I realized that I could not afford a new screen without selling a leg or arm.
Parts of Samsung gadgets are extremely expensive compared to other Android devices and even iPhones. Fixing a Samsung smartphone screen costs a KIDNEY.
It’s not a joke when people say when your Samsung phone falls, your heart breaks before the screen.
iPhones on the other hand are fairly not expensive to maintain. When I was using an iPhone 6s, I replaced the screen several times and I still have two kidneys.
However, the IOS software is far behind in terms of innovation. They just take the previous version, add a new lens, and put it in a new box.
The latest iPhone 15 has 5x zoom, whilst the Samsung s23 has 100x zoom, iPhone has 48 megapixels and Samsung has 200. The latest Samsung phones have enough lenses to find Donald Trump’s personality. Enough zoom to find your last brain cell. Samsung is the underrated one.
I think the major reason why most people prefer iPhones is brand Appeal. Apple's marketing strategy has successfully created a strong brand appeal, making iOS devices aspirational and exclusive, which attracts consumers. That is why you’ll find more celebrities with the latest iPhones.
iPhones are extremely overrated, but you’ll buy them anyway.
It has been awhile. I know, and I’m not going to sit and watch you accuse me of something I’m very guilty of. So don’t come at me.

Your experience with Samsung Galaxy phones and iPhones highlights some interesting points. The cost of repairing Samsung screens can indeed be quite high, and you humorously point out the notion that it costs a "kidney." On the other hand, iPhones tend to have a reputation for being aspirational and exclusive, driven by Apple's strong brand appeal and marketing.
You've also noted that while iPhones may have their appeal, Samsung devices often offer superior hardware innovations, such as camera capabilities. It's a matter of personal preference, and many consumers weigh the pros and cons of each platform before making their choice.
Thanks for sharing.
Wow. It’s a wholesome feeling to know how accurately you’ve comprehend my post. Thank you
You're welcome dear
When I had a Samsung, I would always say it’s way better than an iPhone. And now that I have an iPhone, I’m more convinced that Samsung is way better.
I honestly don’t know what it is about iPhones that everyone is dying for them. Cause once you get it, you realize there’s nothing special about it. You just hold it around for people to say you have one.
iPhones are not special, but people will buy them anyway
