If they're going to charge up to £1500 for a phone, you'd think they'd check that it can do basic things... like charge the battery...

How can you miss something that obvious whilst testing? Someone at Apple needs a good sacking.

Laughing like a drain here... Even buying an an apple you have to be certifiable.... Let me see.. It falls apart, it's flimsy, the battery lasts 10 mins and you pay 3 times the price of an Android, well yes.. Where do I sign up.. ?????
If you ever think I'm off my rocker.. Just put me back in it and walk away... It's the kindest thing
My wife says I never listen - or something like that.

Remember, iPhones are made in Shenzhen, China & Trump hasn’t exactly been their best friend recently.
Wouldn’t surprise me if they had done it on purpose to hit an American company & it’s people...
The Chinese are a very smart bunch, commonly underestimated & way ahead of the West in many ways most don’t realise. Potentially this could attract even more people to Android... APAC made... seems rather obvious to me

It's so funny, I have a daughter in law and her siblings all equipped with hand me down phones from mom, all with cracked screens and very tired and searching for their chargers the moment they get here..

Yep I got a Samsung galaxy s8, about 2 weeks ago I threw it across the room and it hit a chair leg.
The phone actually bent but the top of the screen. Still worked and I can still make calls thanks to Bixby.
