Why should I buy an iPhone?

Follow this and you will understand:

Step 1: Check the iPhone 5s price over Amazon (IN). Don't know in dollars but is in the tune of 20k in Rupees (space grey). You can covert that figure to dollars if you want to, than me checking the exchange rate so as to realise that we are going nowhere.

Step 2: Break some of the myths you might have of iPhone.

• Most apps are paid: All the apps I used over Android is free on iPhone too. Agreed that the memory it consumes for each app is more, sometimes amounting to double that of Android's.
• Can't listen to songs that's been in your old phone. There's Shareit for that and it's inbuilt music player.
• Sharing is difficult. Same again, Shareit.

Step 3: listen to these pros:

• Inbuilt podcast, no need to download TED and a thousand other. All in one place.
• TouchID not just for keypad unlocking, but for purchases too.
• Typing is very easy. Donno what magic they do, it's smooth and not messy. If I were to type the same in swype or an inbuilt android keypad I would have been frustrated.
• Siri. Need I say more? Read some Siri related answers on quora.
• Just enough liberty of settings. Too much liberty may seem good at first but you will get frustrated guiding your mobile than it doing its job.
• Safari. And it's reading mode.
• Multitasking. Not like you open recently seen dialogue box and switch between apps. When you tap at the hyperlinked link from the mail box and end up on the net there will be a small box at the upper left to switch back to mail again. If you jump again from net to some other app the net (safari or otherwise) will appear on the right upper end. You can jump both ways now.
• Easy switching to silent mode. Just a push away
• Do not disturb (DND) mode. It's very useful and handy. It won't show notifications (even the screen won't light up as against silent mode where though there will be no sound notification the screen does light up) when your screen is locked, while the same notifications are not silenced if your screen is unlocked.
• Notification and control panel seperate.
• All videos and music controlled in one place, one drawer like thing.
• 
• Apps optimised just for iPhone. Yes, there are more than just a few handful of differences between quora of the Android and that of iPhone.
• Health app, and it measuring your daily distance walked or jogged.
• 
• 
• Photos (gallery) that has recycle bin like folder!
• Best notification settings to choose between banners and alerts.
• 
• In keypad while typing, suppose that, you write abt for about the first time. It will be corrected to about. You frustratingly clear back the word and retype the corrected word back to abt. This time nothing happens, you are relieved. And guess what the word has been automatically added to the dictionary, so the next time you mistype abt to avt the phone ends up correcting it to abt though it has no actual English meaning to it.
• FaceTime.
• iBooks. Many good books are free to download. Though they are still developing it so that only a few of it is there to choose from.
• Dictionary anywhere. While you select the word, and press define, it automatically jumps to dictionary. (Just like in kindle, it's available for offline use as well)
• 
• 
• Screen size a perfect fit in your palm. You can touch at all the four edges with your thumb with the phone cradled in your palm.
• You can save any article, book, news, from anywhere to iBooks to be read later. Be it in pdf, doc, ppt iBook recognise it all and saves it all.
• All apps not visible. Try opening a pdf, it will open. But try finding the platform app which opened it. You will be in the dark of it.
• And that it neither lags or hangs nor gets infested.
• And yeah, how much one may deny it, they will be cautious while speaking over the phone that their finger doesn't cover the bitten apple logo, lest it go unnoticed.
• You would have surmised that I have not gone into the technical details of it (I know fewer of it anyway) but what ultimately interacts with us is the OS more than the others.
  If you are looking for configurations and the lot, there are tones of commercialwebsites addressing it.
  I was in the same denial as you, but later after using it it appeared to me as though the phone was built for me. A device just for me. And that's my view. You might find the same in some other. Buy that. But you will only realise it after you have bought it.
