Why you have to use iPhone

LMAO，Android phone's 120W fast charging distracts from studying; only an iPhone can help me focus and read a book for an hour.

Because of Live Photos… my dad passed away three years ago, and I have a bunch of his old photos on my phone. After he passed, I used a Huawei Mate series for a while and backed up my photos to Google Cloud. Didn’t think much of it at the time.


But last year, I switched back to an iPhone.

All the photos in iCloud came back, and seeing my dad in those old Live Photos—moving, smiling, talking… that feeling hit hard. It’s like, yeah, iPhone’s an iPhone. A bit pricier? Sure, but it’s worth it.

As an average Joe, I don’t care if some corporate lackey in the U.S. is snooping on my privacy, or if the CIA and FBI are peeking at my chat logs. Harsh truth? If Apple gifted me the latest iPhone Pro Max every time they dropped a new phone, I’d be fine with their U.S. headquarters listening in on my private calls. Apple’s engineers can mess around with my recordings or personal life in their labs all they want—I don’t care, as long as they don’t play my phone calls at their keynotes.

Those Americans, thousands of miles away with zero connection to me? They could monitor me 24/7, and my life wouldn’t change one bit.
But I do care about people I might actually run into or have some connection with knowing my private stuff. Domestic companies? Even if they sent me a full set of home appliances every year, I wouldn’t let them listen to my private calls. It’s not about the country, the brand, or the tech—it’s just that we’re too close. Some things are just too awkward to let you in on. If Apple ever moves its HQ to Qingdao, I’m switching to Samsung the next day.

The iPhone 6s is still usable, the iPhone 13 is still on sale, and the A14 chip can still go toe-to-toe with Android flagship performance.

I’m not saying I have to keep using these phones, but this really shows iPhone’s strength from the side, doesn’t it?
