ok somethin i wanna say re the new phones. $750 for the least expensive phone obv is ... not 'budget friendly'. like i don't wanna be all 'Apple needs to do x or they won't be successful' cause ppl who do that are obnoxious as fuck but it rly would be Great for them to like. have other phones with up to date but not like excessively fancy technology. like they just discontinues the 6, x, and se phones which was tbh not a great call? i haven't paid any attention to the 7 or 8 but like. please make actually affordable phones that still have the (soft) home button. and the headphone jack. and shit like that. stop jacking up the price while you keep removing things!!! market to the average person as a general user base in addition to/instead of just like rich ppl or californians or something. and you don't have to release big new fancy tech every year honestly. also other people have already said this ofc but planned obsolescence is shit. also have your genius bar or repairs or whatever the fuck actually be helpful instead of telling people they need to buy a new phone when they just have to get some dust out or something. stop pulling that shit where you make it seem like the only option is to spend several hundred dollars it's so fucking transparent
