You can get virus's on Apple stuff, its a myth that you can't.

I've had absolutely zero viruses on my various iPads since 2012 and the same goes for my iPhones since 2010, go figure.

Great, lucky you, but Apple devices CAN get virus's, just like pretty much every other online device.
I've not had any serious virus infections on my windows / android devices either, and yes, I do use an anti virus software (free).

Overpriced tat IMHO, why pay double or treble for something, when you can buy alternatives that are just as good or better for far less?

So why do you own/use a 97 and not a B2?

Cos I've shot a B2 and they are tat, and I want to hit what I aim at, so they are not similar.
My smart phone does the same as an Apple phone.
A B2 does not perform the same as a 97 does, so not a good comparison.
It would be like comparing an old Nokia non smart phone to the Apple phone!
And you will notice I am not a gun tart, I have cheap and not so cheap and none that are very expensive.

But you could, and lack of AV is only increasing that risk.

Lots of things could, and sometimes do happen in life, but I've had zero issues over thousands of hours for the last 10-12 years using iOS.

Not quite..."Apple smartphones are leading in terms of the removal of features. Many Android phones use facial recognition, but most of them still use fingerprints as an authentication method. iPhones, on the other hand, removed fingerprint authentication back in 2018! This is mostly because their face recognition system, the Face ID, is hands down the best there is. It can recognize your face in the dark, it can pick up your features even at extreme angles, and it does so in the blink of an eye."

Meh.... sounds like good marketing blurb.

The iPads are great IMO , all ours are still working fine no problems at all from any of them.

A simple question...Turned heated debate

One thing all these companies are all guilty of, is drip feeding us technology, to keep selling us upgrades every year.

I remember when life was much simpler........My first motorola brick with an aerial and Nokia 3210 at school.....Both had atleast a full week's battery life.
