I voted with my wallet since iPhone 4. I was an early enthusiast with iPhone and owned the first model, as soon as it came out, and the next 3 models after that. But at some point it started becoming so expensive I was put off. I can afford it but I was just disgusted. I have gone through 3 Android phones since and now use a Nexus 6P, which is a very nice phone.


"vote with your wallet". I'll never stop being amazed at how readily americans buy into the "democracy = consumerism" equation. Or the number of things they happily apply that formula to.

I suppose that 'we're here to change the world' soda commercial isn't nearly as absurd when you consider the audience.


Going through eight phones in ten years is an interesting choice for someone being disgusted by Appleconomics...?
