Guy at work literally laughed when I said iOS totally ripped off android navigation, thought Apple did that, pulled up a YT vid of when gesture navigation started, he walked away with his head down.

Then of course I followed him around going on about restricted Bluetooth for years, NFC chips they couldn't use, how long ago the first Google wallet came out, and of course, how I can move my icons out of the way so I can actually see my wallpaper, which is too advanced for the apple devs LOL.

But agreed, iPhones are half descent now, great hardware, just wish people could actually use it the way they wanted to .
