Iphone worshipped in india
I recently visited some old friends and they all asked me 'why haven't you bought an iPhone yet'. They all have iPhones, some of them are still studying. This has happened for the 3rd time in the last 2 years.
I earn decent and can easily afford one but its very hard to make them understand that I don't need one since I just use my phone for 3/4 apps per day WhatsApp, insta, gpay.
It's just an observation that we as Indians or you can say some of us have started to associate iPhones with a person's image.
Have you also faced similar things?
PS: I like apple products but I don't see much value being added to life using an iPhone.

I bought an S23 Ultra last year. When I told then that it cost me 1.3L, I legit got some looks as if they were disgusted. Some straight up asked me "Who even buys an android at such high price?" Little do they know, my phone outperformed the latest iPhone there was at that point of time which was the 14 series. Moreover, I'm happy with my purchase decision and that's what matters at the end of the day.
life is too short to argue with iPhone fan Bois, just say "mat maan, Maa chuda"

Bro, It boils me to see how Apple has done this. They have just made other products users look inferior in the eyes of Apple users.
Ya that's true apple has put itself well as a brand, but I don't know why people have to fanboy/fangirl a company and put peer pressure on others
I find iPhone as an involuntary step down from good status because people buy it only for that. Too pricey and they come out as desperate to show status
Your friends are trash. Honestly any group of sane people won't care for the phone you carry, unless it's something for clicking pics in which case iPhone, Pixels and Samsung high end phones are looked out for.
All (infact majority) people are not iphones hoggers. Also many iPhone owners have genuine use case (like they have the money to buy such expensive phones and are used to apple ecosystem).
Lastly iPhone is great but also sucks. It cannot cut incoming call without some "manoeuvres". It's battery life is meh and charging is slow given the price. And no charger included is a no no.
I exactly feels the same, I like the simplicity of android
Everyone in my family has one and keep pushing me to get. But Android has worked well for me, the apps, battery life, storage, syncing - half the things iphone doesn't do and still people carry on because "status"

People will even get a run down iPhone5 or 6, just to show off that logo.
