Techie reasons to like (or not hate) Apple [Serious replies only]

[LukaP]

Im going to be playing devils advocate here (or just like, uncovering another side of the story)

 

You all probably know my views on Apple, how most of the hate they get is unjustified. 

 

So, if you have a reason to like apple (or if you just want to give props where its due), this is the thread for you (and the rhyme is for me)

[SeanAngelo]

I swear I just saw a topic on this.....

 

oh nvm, that one was non-techie reasons.

[ThatOneRussian]

Well they invented umm well ergonomic mice?

[Tycho]

They have nice packaging, that's the only thing i like about them.

AMD are red,
Intel are blue
this thread is pointless
it'll be locked with mod glue.

I swear I just saw a topic on this.....

it was the opposite and non-techie reasons

[pwn_intended]

Their hardware looks nice, and windows runs great on it!

That's about all I can muster up on this topic.

[NeatSquidYT]

I don't mind MacBooks, but the rest of the Apple stuff just doesn't appeal to me. I'd only get a MacBook if I could put Windows/Linux on it.

"Serious replies only"

I think you are on the wrong forum.

 

On topic:

Because they locked down the OS

[cooky560]

Techie reasons? Umm it's produced a viable alternative to windows that isn't as scary as Linux to newbies?

[Castdeath97]

Aright I will speak my reasons: 

 

Mac: 1-Better scalling for HiDPi (at least when I bough it) 

         2-Better battery life (again when I bought it)

         

iPhone: 1-Great camera

             2- Ecosystem (in other words world of tanks blitz works better there)

[Slash003]

Techie reasons, hmmmmmmmmmmm................ Well I got a non techie reason. They look nice for a prebuilt.

[beach_boy98]

they introduced a new type of ssd storage into phones

their screens are amazing

they can pack a hell of a lot of hardware in a tiny package (trash can design )

its not cheap. but damn its most of the time very well built and has great software responsivness between devices

[manikyath]

the main reason i see to like apple, is they are one of the few companies that has an entire ecosystem, and has it 100% figured out.

 

and for the people that like the "entire ecosystem" concept, thats a VERY good point.

^^ Pretty much. 

 

Cookie to everyone that moans about the forum, then participates in a thread that clearly doesn't apply to them; if you don't like Apple, don't post in a thread asking why people like Apple.

[Snickerzz]

Likes: Standardized OS, everything works together, very pretty :3

 

Dislikes: restrictive OS, limited hardware upgrades
