Every time i look on technology websites, there's an article complaining about the iPhone, but i see no reason to complain.

Even if You take into account the lack of flash, they are still incredible devices, squeezing almost everything you can do on a computer or games console into a device that fits in your pocket. I have owned a 1st generation iPod Touch since january, and the only complaint i have with it is the battery life is a bit short, but that's understandable since it is 3 years old, and i have high standards for battery life, with my phones battery lasting a week on one charge.

So what are all the complaints about? Is it just my high capacity for analysing things logically that means i can see no problems with them that can't be solved with small modifications?

Well, my uncle pressed a button on his brand new iPhone and the thing crashed harder than an EA game.

Also,
this and this as well make me never want to touch an iPhone, iPad, or what-have-you.

Well my general complaint about iPhones are that they lack quality. Plus they have some design flaws, like most Apple products do.

That might have something to do with the lack of evidence. Have you ever actually used an apple product?

Why buy a second if you're unhappy with the first?

I was given the second one, if you really must know. I wouldn't fork out a single cent for another one nor would I want a second one.

Why don't you go and buy yourself an iMac than you will see major Apple design flaws.

Actually, I'm saving up for any iMac right now. I'm waiting for them to come out with the new models! Can't wait!
