\"8<\/p>\n

If you are reading this, stop now. You have stumbled on to an iPhone website that has clearly lost its mind and is telling you reasons why you shouldn\u2019t own the item that it so clearly is obsessed with. Up is down, black is white, left its right and right is wrong, the world has gone mad! Still, as you\u2019re still here, let\u2019s look at the 8 top reasons why you shouldn\u2019t own an iPhone.<\/p>\n

1. The Signal Is Terrible<\/h5>\n

\"The<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat? Yeah, I\u2019ll meet you by the Apple Store! By the Apple Store! By the App-! Yeah, the Apple Store, I\u2019ve got to return my iPho-, what? I can\u2019t hea-, no, I can\u2019t hea-, I can\u2019t hear you! F*%k it, I\u2019ll just keep the damn thing!\u201d If this conversation is reminiscient of any exchanges that you may have encountered due to the poor signal strength of the iPhone, you have our sympathy. In some parts of the country, you\u2019d be better with a carrier pigeon.<\/p>\n

2. Everybody In The World Has An iPhone And It\u2019s Newer Than Yours!<\/h5>\n

\"iphone<\/p>\n

\u201cOMG, have you seen my new \u2013 oh, you\u2019ve already got one. And it\u2019s a newer model. How come, I got mine yesterday?!\u201d iPhones are so prevalent in today\u2019s society that it would be more cool and alternative to have an old Nokia; plus, they are so quickly outdated that you might as well save up for the iPhone 2000.<\/p>\n

3. iPhones ALWAYS Crash<\/h5>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Why make app games that are so damn addictive<\/a> if the screen just crashes on the final level?!!!<\/p>\n

4. Android Is Soooo Much Cheaper Than iPhone<\/h5>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

By the time you\u2019ve bought the latest model, insured it and kitted it out with the latest accessories, not to mention getting a premium payment plan so that you can let all of your friends know just how cool you are via text, calls and WAP, you could have bought approximately 6 billion Android phones. And they\u2019re pretty similar anyway.<\/p>\n

6. The Insurance Excess On An iPhone is $1,000,000<\/h5>\n

\"iphone-insurance\"<\/p>\n

Or something like that.<\/p>\n

7. If You Have A PC, installing iTunes Is A Pain In The Ass<\/h5>\n

\"Mac<\/p>\n

Ok, so you\u2019ve bitten the bullet and decided to venture over to Apple for all of your mobile needs; however, you\u2019re sticking with your trusty PC, after all, when\u2019s it ever let you down? No worries, but to run an iPhone on it, you have to install iTunes. Yep, no more playing your music through Windows Media Player, it\u2019s iTunes or nothing for you Mister, and guess what? You\u2019re gonna lose that Tori Amos B-side collection in the switch. (Solution: Get a Mac, loser.)<\/p>\n

8. There\u2019s No Flash Support On An iPhone<\/h5>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Oh, this one really takes the biscuit. According to Apple, \u201cthe mobile era is about low power devices, touch interfaces and open web standards \u2014 all areas where Flash falls short.\u201d Thus, your iPhone and iPad will not show flashing animated banners on any website in Safari, nor will it play the embedded videos on sites like YouTube or Facebook without jumping to the site\u2019s app, which is a royal pain. Ironically, iPhoneAppCafe\u2019s flash advert banners can\u2019t be viewed on iPhones. Sometimes Steve Jobs, just sometimes, you can get a bit too big for your boots!<\/p>\n
