But we're not, which illustrates to me you don't read and understand what people are saying.
Its all about Apple and not the phones. They're a terrible company which I have so many negative beefs with that I find it hard to not voice my opinions. If they did business like other phone manufacturers, I wouldn't give a toss.
They're greedy, cash grabbing, ignorant, self-obsessed, lying, manipulative megalomaniacs. If you cant see that, then that's fine, as nearly every other iPhone owner is of the same ignorance.
Bloody hell fella, you need help !! I've read your anti Apple rantings over the past few days and your feelings go far and beyond how a normal, stable person should react over any commercial business that has not caused you any personal hurt.
I hate to burst your bubble but all Corporations and multi national companies exist to make money, including your beloved Samsung. There are not many philanthropists in the tech business, although Mr Gates does spring to mind.
You clearly don't like Apple and it's products and that's fair enough, but your obsessive manner and rantings are a real concern.

Actually your post completly ignored what I was saying and yes yours and other people's posts made have shown enjoyment of the bending flow . Second this is a ip 6 plus thread not a" how Apple is conducting business" . Third you don't know me - for your information I have had Samsung phones and lg phones and Nokia phones as well as iPhone so to call me ignorant speaks volumes of you.
Also although this is off topic maybe have a look at how Samsung is conducting its business before starting to pass judgments on people based on what phones are buying

ive been playing with iphone 6+ for 1 day now (my girlfriend 6+) and i can tell you guys one thing....you have to bend VERY hard to bend 6+ chassi.
no way in hell it bends in your pocket (i know, i read about some guy who had it in the pocket, etc...)
its more robust then i thought.....actually when i (right now) hold it in my hand and bend it sideways....nothing.
when i bend it lightly long-sides.....nothing...........im quite strong in my arms and if i going to bend 6+ long sides i truly have to press very hard.
and give me a brake...i promise you guys i can bend many +5" phones if i press very hard...nothing unique there.
overall its a VERY cool phone...i specially like the icons turns horizontal when you rotate the phone (like the ipad)...the camera is one of the best on the market....
i give it 9/10 easily

What a stupidly ignorant reply. We really are hitting an all time low here on Esato these days.
I think you're the one in need of help. Clearly you haven't taken part in the discussions over the past 4 years here on Esato regarding Apple's phone, business strategies, treatment of consumers, faulty products and terrible public relations - so i'll humour you, forgive your ignorance and ignore your comment. Oh and by the way, I don't have any brand loyalty, it just so happens I choose what I think is better which is usually the market leader. Another stupid comment.

Well of course I ignored your point, because you're incorrect. You're accusing people of taking great enjoyment from seeing Apple phones bend. I don't know about other people, but I don't, I found it mildly amusing at first when the story first broke but since then I feel nothing but pity for the poor people that bought the phone in good faith. Just because you say something, it doesn't make it correct. Take a look back at my posts, you'll find they're mainly negatively aimed at Apple for their faulty products, rather than just LOL ! at the bending. Even the Instagram link I posted I didn't like, the poor phone in that 30 second clip was destroyed with such ease and the noise it made was terrible.
You guys really need to start reading peoples opinions, especially people who stand up for consumer rights like I do and learn how to discuss issues such as Apples, rather than ignore the issue, accuse people of brand loyalty or being a fanboy and then allowing companies like Apple to get away with it by burying the issue. If you do that, hell just give them your bank card and pin number.
By the way, do not class any other company that makes mobile phones in the same league as Apple - they're alone in their league. Ive never known a company release continuous streams of products year after year with such disastrous issues and then mismanage every single aspect of recovering from it from the customer point of view. No, its usually the customer fault isn't it ?
Esato is becoming ridiculous for such ignorance.

I had iPhone 5, 5s and now 6 so I think I am entitled to wonder what are the disastrous issues that you are referring to?
The bending issue is unfortunate yes however my understanding is that unless force is applied only in a certain point this is not likely to happen. More so while your attitude towards consumers rights is commendable I believe that the consumer report proved that other manufacturers phones are suffering from the same issue I.e. HTC One ...why only single Apple out? Also your number of posts calling people buying apple products ignorant i take offence to that: I work hard to earn my money and I think I am entitled to spend them the way I see fit. So by all means please feel free to post here if you find issues about the apple products but it would be nice if you wouldn't pass judgements on people just because they buy a brand you can't stand .
And also I hope you will be equally critical when other brands (including Samsung) have serious issues (

You really are bigoted aren't you ?
There is no discussion where you are concerned, just your opinions, which are always right........apparently. Anybody who questions you is ignorant and stupid.
I stand by my initial comments. I am not saying that Apple products are problem free, far from it, we are all aware of the problems they have had and continue to have. But because people still continue to purchase these products seems to be taken personally by you, a very troubling reaction.
If Apple had somehow caused harm to you or your family members then your completely irrational reactions would have some foundation.
Just let it go fella, buy the handset that suits you and let everybody else do the same without fear of being labelled ignorant or stupid.
On a final note I think its great that the Internet has given people like you a voice, 20 years ago you would have had to sit in your bedroom alone with nobody to talk to...........those were the days !!

That's entirely your opinion. Which you're entitled to. Gladly for me, im not actually liable to your judgements. What you think of me is of little worry, since you're of the misbelief (IMO of course !) that im only here to slander Apple products like a fanboy, which you're probably used to seeing in other areas of the Esato forum from other people so no wonder some of us get tarred with the same brush, as the saying goes. So i'll continue to accommodate your misjudgements (again, IMO of course !).
@ aussieland1
I know I can be harsh on people for buying Apple phones, but its not really aimed at people on a site such as this. Its more aimed at people like my sister who buy them blindly without knowing of the issues and then come to my home, place of work, in a bar or in the street and then tell me
Android is sh*t, or
Apple make the best phones, the rest are sh*t, which I usually then reply with the knowledge I have of the last few years of Apple products making them look incredibly stupid for their comments. I once had a very heated discussion with a woman who claimed I was lying and that Apple were perfect, they'd never had any problems, their phones were better because they were not just phones but iPhones (literally, WTF woman !?!) which she didn't really have any other information as to what makes them different.
So if I offend you for being an Apple owner, I do apologise, because that was not my intent.
But, I cant forget the issues Apple have when people are buying into their products with good intention and then getting ripped off or ignored by Apple. Steve Jobs kicked it all off with Antennagate in 2010 by accusing the phone owners of holding their phones wrong. Since that day, Apple have shown their arrogance towards the market im quite passionate about and how they're going to continually milking it for revenue they simply do not deserve.

Fair enough and thanks. I don't like Apple as a company myself so I can see where you are coming from (banning that German company for that video was plain stupid/childish ) . Truth is I am more an android fan than Apple fan but I like to try out all the phones out there. And I know iPhones have faults but I enjoy using them . (Still interested in Nexus 6 or Note 4) though.
However what you said about your sister - don't you think many people are buying Samsyng phones because of marketing and without considering perfectly good alternatives ( android and even windows phones)? How is this different to Apple?
