I had an iPhone 13 pro max and it was an excellent device. Everything it could do it did very well and had outstanding battery life, build quality, and cameras.

I only got rid of it because I wanted torrents and emulators. If you're aware of the limitations of iOS and you're okay with them, iPhones are really great.

I don’t think you’re supposed to post reasonable, level-headed opinions regarding Apple on here. Against the rules or something

Go into any technology thread that mentions Apple in the title and you’ll see that’s not the case. It’s rare to find a comment that uses actual facts, mostly just opinions of people who have never used an Apple product complaining that they suck.

If you're aware of the limitations of iOS
