Does LTT never consider that tech enthusiasts are a minority, and the majority of users have no idea what the heck they are doing?,(reply>), @OneTruePing OK we could argue the junk bit but the overpriced part is undeniable. They literally charge more for the exact same component...<br><br>Also an iPhone isn't inherently more secure really  just ask Jeff bozos....,(reply>), @Dyno Bisaya A fad doesn't last decades.,(reply>), @Zwenk Wiel There's a number of reasons I can think of, including being able to restrict what is on the device for children/elderly who may otherwise spend a lot of money on microtransactions or not understand basic device security, or being locked down as a business phone, or simply preferring the consistency of the UI and the app ecosystem. The point being, they should have that choice. Every single argument for sideloading has been "my device, my choice," but the fact that it would also take away choice for those who have different priorities is always ignored.<br><br>And for an overpriced piece of junk with an Apple logo on it, there's an awful lot of people here saying they'd buy it or already bought it and just want sideloading.,(reply>), @DrabberFrog Apparently, the right to choose a more limited device isn't one of those rights.,(reply>), @Zwenk Wiel because it's hip and the fad.... Sadly enough
