Have you seen the following video? It beautifully depicts how hipsters and wannabe hipsters perceive anything that has the Apple logo on it as Supreme…
Check out the video:
Ok i get it, this was a small sample of people and not all Apple users are like that. Hell, i even know one or two Apple users who are very knowledgeable (and thinking) people. But much of the Apple’s following is like the ones in the above video. For many of us who don’t use Apple they are the first association which comes to mind at the word Apple (as a brand).
Thesaurus:
Apple (brand) - synonym for overpriced piece of junk with stupid users.
Ok, just kidding, no dictionary says that XD
To be honest i have no issue with Apple itself, after all it was first to adopt/develop some great things. But fanaticism surrounding it borders on religion…
Most people buy Apple as a fashion statement, that’s OK, but why must they then emphasize the tech backing it as something groundbreaking while it is mostly just remarketed old stuff?
Not to mention that many people buy Apple on a loan which they can't even afford. This fanaticism perpetuates an endless cycle of overpricing and social exclusion - for those who can't even afford a loan. I get it, it's fashion, it's how this game is played...
