>/g/ called the iPhone 17 series and Air a flop>every single influential streamer and content creator loves them>they start selling like hotcakesAre you ready to apologize to Tim, /g/?
I really don't give a shit about normalfag consoomers and their annual iPhone purchase.
>>106776743>im poorsay less
>every single influential streamer and content creator loves themyea because if they don't say they love it they will have to refund their iPhone apple gave them for free and won't get a VIP invite for any new apple's conference
It was my mom’s birthday, and we (me and my normie sister) decided to gift her a new phone. I wanted to get her the S25 Ultra, while my sister pushed for the iPhone 17 Pro Max. Even though I argued that the Samsung was objectively the better phone, she countered that the iPhone had a superior camera and would hold its resale value much better than an android device. In the end, we went with the iPhone, gave it to mom yesterday, and she was really happy. I’m a bit disappointed, but maybe it was for the best—accessibility on iOS devices is usually better anyway.Not a shill btw, just venting.
>>106776902your mom will love airdrop, imessage, airpods and watch integration, 10+ years of updates, amazing battery life, great privacy features, icloud etc etc I could go on and on.Apple just works.
>>106776668Why I'm moving to iPhone 17 Pro/Max. Still undecided, I have to find some in the wild to test them in hand.>fixed their cooling issues>symmetrical back>EU app stores so I can install a 4chin app>>106776902Nice em dash, gaylord
>>106776668>iPhone 17 made in India "gate", sand "gate", shit and piss "gate", scratches everywhere "gate", moisture in the camera lenses "gate" and list goes on>every single paid streamer and paid content creator claims to "love them">Apple set expectations so low that they exceeds their low expectationsPeople don't buy Apple because Apple is good, they buy Apple under social pressure because they are poor.
>>106776988my 17 and all my family and friends 17s are made in chinai dont think there's been a single one spotted in the wild yet
>>106777081Enjoy your iPhone 17 made in India. Only reason you and your family uses iPhone is because you are all poor. Too bad.
>>106776902>resalecan you seriously see your mom doing all the legwork to list the phone on fleabay or trade it in to bestbuy? or do they mean that they're going to trade this in for a discounted opportunity to buy the iphone 18? and if she does get it sold...how much is she expecting to get back?your sister means well but she has been taken in by the apple marketing machine
>>106777100my iphone 17 pro was made in china lil brotry reading before replying
>>106777110>andjeet literally cannot fathom how easy it is to resell an iPhone
>>106776668>influencers love the product they've been paid to shill forno fucking shit sherlock.
>>106776668Caring about phones is about as cool as caring about washing machines nowadays. Who gives a flying fuck
>>106777081Interesting. Did apple just pay journos to say it was made in india?
>>106777397if they exist i haven't seen one
>>106776668>>every single influential streamer and content creator loves themI do not care about the opinions of retards.
>>106776668>every single influential streamer and content creator loves themYes, that's how it goes. Apple pays them to make an ad and they do. The difference is that normal people know this and don't buy overpriced garbage (a phone is a phone is a phone) while the idiots fall for the advertising. Every phone is basically the same and that's okay. They are purely utilitarian devices.
>>106776988>they finance Apple under social pressure
>>106776668Air is a meme, the rest are good as usual. Also Android decided to kill itself by essentially closing the system in the foreseeable future, thus removing the last reason not to switch to Apple.
>>106776668>>>every single influential streamer and content creator loves themOh yeah I forgot zoomers care about this
>>106776668pic doesn't mention any iphone air. what foldable release?what were the sales expectations? how's exceeding them proving anything?why's that blogspam too retarded to actually link to the jpmorgan analyst's report? on what is that jpmorgan analyst sourcing her report?
>>106776668>every single influential streamer and content creator loves themsomeone tell him...
>>106776858I got rich by not wasting my cash on crap like this and by paying slave jeets like you less than what any law allows to do my job for me.
>>106778282my 17 pro took 3 days work to pay offill be fine
>>106776902>Ultra>Maxis your mom a gigaboomer who needs a giant screen with 200% font size to see?

How does shit like this sell like cakes that are hot when the economy is allegedly buns
>>106778690There are so many ways to finance a phone. If you need to finance a $1000 gadget you are poor, but they make it very easy.
>>106778690do you think rich white people lose all their money just because unemployment goes from 4 to 6%?poor browns get btfo by inflation and job losses
>>106776668Apple is the worlds greatest company. I honestly, don't care if they ever make AI like we need MORE slop in this universe. Does it help me if Apple makes you videos of yourself dancing with mario mushrooms? Do we need another paragraph typer? They make a damn good phone and it looks sweet and it fits into the excellent ecosystem. What more can you ask for?
>>106778673We just wanted to get her the best model available. Since her eyesight is getting worse, having a bigger screen was the top priority in a phone.
>>106777100only the orange states of america get the jeetphone
>>106778282>I got richBuddy, wagie adults care less about what phones each other use than you do on an anonymous board. Even if you have money, which you don't, you're spiritually poor and everyone can/will be able to tell.
>>106776902your sister was right and your mother will enjoy the gift.don't feel bad anon, be happy you have your family
>>106777110She’ll probably just ask me to sell the phone, honestly - like she always does.>>106780771Thanks, anon. I hope all is well in your life.
>iPhone 17 Pro finally arrives in the mail>immediately flip over the phone box after opening the package>"Product of China"Is it possibly still jeet-manufactured or am I safe?
>>106776902You're a retard, your sister was right. Get your parents iPhones, especially if they're already familiar with them.
>>106776668https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J8hwDQJRU7E
>>106781377>am I safe?I think so, I got a regular 17 that says that too. Apparently the production is still split in the US, with some being made in India and others in China. We won...CHINA NUMBER ONE!!!
>>106776988They’re not made in India. They’re just assembled by poop stain hands.
>>106781484I honestly let out a sigh of relief at first until I read stuff online again. Apparently the 17 series phones are ASSEMBLED in India? Could these phones be made as a "Product of China" and then sent to a factory in India to be assembled?Would the product box clarify even clarify that?
>>106781495So what you're saying is.....there's still a chance my China-made phone was touched and piece together by a jeet and his jeet hands?....
>>106781521I think it has to say it was "assembled in india" or "product of india" on it if that was the case. At least in the US. I guess it's still possible to be made in China and assembled in india, but they were already putting "assembled in india" on older phones for the US.
The Air feels like a flop. While I was waiting for my PM to ship I noticed I could get an Air immediately if I wanted one.
>>106781572That makes sense. I'm just relieved I got lucky with a China-made phone and not an Indian-made one with a 50-50 chance of being defective.The tech gods took pity on me this day.
>>106781618Nice, yeah I think I'm going to start asking for a phone that says "Product of China" on the box when I go to the Apple store for new phones.
