Yes, the screen is small, but Apple is all about making a functional device that is as small as possible. They like things to be tiny. Their devices, are the thinnest, lightest, etc. A 4" screen on the iPhone serves its needs well, make the phone more pocketable than any other phone, and doesn't cause conflicts between the iPad and iPhone crowds. A device that would be big enough to be "both" doesn't really do either one very well.
Or, a device big enough to be both hurts Apple's chances to make you part with your money twice.
iPhones are built with top notch quality, but I would't say it's the best. Frankly, I like the feel of the Nexus 5 better than that of an iPhone 5(s). But this is a matter of opinion.I don't think anyone can dispute that the build quality is the best of any phone (save for maybe the HTC One).
Not half-a*s'ed? You're joking, right? Remember the Apple Maps rollout? That was worse than half-whatever, it was a disaster. And at the inception of iOS 7, this is what happened:There are no half-@$$ed apps, or buggy apps. As they say, "It Just Works". And its true.
The problem isn't that Apple doesn't screw up. The wonder is how they are able to maintain the illusion of "it just work" when it clear just doesn't.However, app-testing company uTest – which tests web and mobile apps for customers like Google, HBO, and Amazon through a global crowdsourced community of 100,000 testers in 200 countries – has told Business Insider that 90 per cent of pre-exisiting iOS apps are having trouble with the new system.
