My iPhone isn't that cool.



      Everyone has an iPhone. You have one, your brother has one, your parents are still learning the tips and tricks, even though it's been years. Even my grandma has an iPhone, it's ridiculous.

      Maybe you don't have an iPhone, but you have an iPod.
      Maybe you don't have an iPod, but want an iPhone, sure.

      If you don't own an iPhone, don't worry. You're not missing out on anything. Yeah iMessage is pretty cool, but it shouldn't be the only reason you're paying 500 bucks. Siri? I'd rather ask my dog for directions to the Torchy's Tacos across the street. Oh but you've already spent so much money on iTunes music? Your music will work anywhere, don't worry. But you've just spent 99 cents on an app that was on sale? Most apps go on sale whenever a holiday comes around.

    Pretty much every app is on every smartphone. Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, all there. No one cares that at the very bottom of your Facebook post, it says "Via Facebook for iOS". It's not a big deal. The camera seems really nice and cool at first, but after a couple of months, it looks just as bad as 3GS.

     No one will ever leave their iPhone, including myself. Why? Because no one has looked up in two years to see what else has came out.

      It used to make you cool for about a week to have an iPhone. But now, their not hard to get and it's making someone rich.

     I can't customize it that much either. The most I could do is spend thirty bucks on an iPhone case and change the backgrounds, but that's about it.

   The worst part, is forcing yourself to buy the newest iPhone pretty much every six months. Even when you have a two year commitment, most of the time.

    The iPhone is an accessory, not a necessity. There are plenty of fish in the sea of phones.
