I think the argument is, people have budgets. Some people can afford 1 grand phones, a lot if people can only afford 200 dollar phones, if them 200 dollar phone suddenly become 250 dollar phones, alot of people just can't buy them.

Is the correctt answer it not about iPhones it’s about all tariffs, that was used as an example. All the experts say it’s nit the companies who will bear the brunt of the rises it’s the consumers, they are billionaires for a reason.
 
Well this is interesting. I haven't seen this reported. Anyone? I totally missed this. From January 8th.

Trump posts clip of prof calling Netanyahu ‘obsessive’ about getting US to fight Iran​

US president-elect shares without comment a video on Truth Social of Columbia’s Jeffrey Sachs calling PM a ‘deep, dark son of a bitch’ and saying he’s gotten US into ‘endless wars’

US President-elect Donald Trump shared a video on his Truth Social account on Wednesday that included an American professor calling Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu a “dark son of a bitch,” accusing him of being “obsessive” in trying to get the US to go to war against Iran.

The video Trump shared was a snippet of a lecture by Columbia University economics professor Jeffrey Sachs, where he speaks about the pretext for the US invasion of Iraq and how the US government at the time was trying to find a way to sell the “phony war” to the American people.

“Where did that war come from?” Sachs asks rhetorically, as part of an attack on the Obama administration’s actions.

“You know what? It’s quite surprising. That war came from Netanyahu, actually,” he claimed.

“Netanyahu had, from 1995 on, the theory that the only way we are going to get rid of Hamas and Hezbollah is by toppling the governments that support them. That’s Iraq, Syria and Iran,” he added.

“And the guy [Netanyahu] is nothing if not obsessive, and he is still trying to get us to fight Iran to this day,” he claimed. “He is a deep, dark son of a bitch, sorry to tell you.”

“He has gotten us into endless wars, and because of the power of all this in US politics, he has gotten his way,” Sachs concluded.

After Trump’s election victory, Netanyahu said that the two see “eye-to-eye on the Iranian threat in all its components, and the danger posed by it,” but the fact that Trump shared a video that explicitly criticized the Israeli premier for trying to get the US to go to war with Iran brings Netanyahu’s assessment into question.

Trump’s Truth Social post on Wednesday had no caption, was posted without context and the president-elect has not commented on why he shared the video.

While responding to the news, Sachs told The Guardian that while he was not advising Trump, he is hoping his administration changes its outlook towards Israel.

“I do not know Trump’s disposition on these issues, but I do very much hope that he frees US foreign policy from the grip of the cruel, ineffective, illegal and destructive policies of Netanyahu,” he averred.

Absolutely. But, I take offense when someone makes false claims when I just got 4 brand new phones for $0 over the next 24 months.

The iPhone 11 and iPhone 16 differ significantly in performance, camera capabilities, and display technology.

• Processor: The iPhone 11 features the A13 Bionic chip, while the iPhone 16 is powered by the A18 chip, offering enhanced speed and efficiency.

• Camera: The iPhone 16 boasts a more advanced camera system with a 48MP main sensor and features like Cinematic mode, compared to the iPhone 11’s dual 12MP setup.

• Display: The iPhone 11 has a Liquid Retina IPS LCD, whereas the iPhone 16 uses a superior OLED display, providing better color accuracy and brightness.

Overall, the iPhone 16 represents a substantial upgrade over the iPhone 11.

How about running iOS 18 on an 11 vs a 16?

The iPhone 11 can run iOS 18.

However, while it will receive many features like a redesigned Control Center and updates to Messages, it won’t support some advanced functionalities exclusive to newer models, such as Apple Intelligence features and Messages via Satellite.

Overall, iPhone 11 users will still benefit from significant updates but may miss out on the latest innovations available on the iPhone 15 series and beyond.

The defense rests.

Congratulations on what is almost certainly the most sanctimonious post I've ever read on BM. Phone bragging really isn't a good look.

Saw a pic of James Woods after his house was spared from the PacPal fires. Looks like he’s skeletal from the waist down and barely able to stand up, but still trying to look hip at 77 from the waist up (Shades, leather jacket, etc!)

Dollar Store Thor is just one of those pathetic washed-up Hollywood Z-lister's who drank the MAGA Kool Aid. Spends most of his time trying to be clever on Twitter and ends up getting his ass handed to him.

I honestly couldn’t care less what phone you have, want or need, but the facts do matter.

Is a $1,000 a luxury item? Yes.
Can everyone afford one? No.

And….?

As for the notion of iPhone sales running the economy, I’m not sure what to say?!

Never really got the expensive phone thing, and certainly not Apple. Having said that my 3-year-old $200 Galaxy A22 crapped out this morning and is now randomly turning itself off. Either a factory reset or a new phone.

Oh well.

I think once you’re in the Apple ecosystem system it’s hard to get out, I know I’m in it and everything just works, once they stop updating mine (which they do contrary to what some people say) I’ll get another probably one or two generations off the newest one, I’ll never get a contract to buy one I’ll just buy secondhand cash and keep my £5-10 sim deal only.

I had a collegue at a previous place I worked who was a proper Apple Tart. If Apple were due to release a new product, he would book a cruise for him and his partner to New York which coincided with the launch date so he could queue up ap the Apple store.

The closest thing I've got to Apple was an iTunes account, but I gave up on that because it was just too much of a pain in the arse. I ended up switching to WinAmp.
 
TikTok ban ratified by SCOTUS.

Mango Shitgibbon personally invited their owner to his inauguration. Usually this would be awkward but as all the man baby worships money expect him to announce he's not going to do it during his inauguration. Along with the "hundreds" of executive orders he's signed off already.
