Because Apple is trash, and Android phones don't magically stop working as soon as the new model is released
I dont understand this meme. Iphones are well known for retaining value when new versions are released because they are supported for many years. Do you actually think your galaxy note 8 will be supported late this year when the galaxy note 9 is out? The galaxy note 5 didnt even last a year before the performance was crippled
It isn't a meme, Apple literally admitted to intentionally slowing the performance of older phones.
Yes, the same happens with android. This is a natutal result of software evolution, not some conspiracy you can use to further your bias.
Interesting that this isn't the excuse Apple came up with. Would you like to make up other reasons to defend them? ---
