Real question. I would like to know what drives you to hate Apple? (In terms of privacy of course because in terms of price it’s another story).

      1. There are cheaper 3rd party (and also cheaper 1st party) charging options
      2. That wheels kit is clearly aimed at big businesses and not something a normal consumer would buy

      There’s plenty of real things to complain about Apple, no need to be petty like this.

        Not only the wheels, take a llook on their store and it’s hilarious prices for simple complements. Pitty that you must buy a charger apart for your phone which not even include it by default.

          Sure, if I didn’t have 100 compatible chargers already from a variety of other products, and wasn’t willing to purchase 3rd party products, I’d have to buy a $20 adapter from Apple.

          Also, I just checked and the latest Pixel comes with a cable but not a brick, same as the iPhone. Also Google’s cheapest power brick is $25, so it’s actually worse than Apple.

          Got any real complaints?

            “Other company is worst so Apple is in the clear”.Why are you shilling for a mega corp that doesn’t give a shit about you?

              If the worst thing Apple ever did was sell some optional components no one needs to buy to use their core products for more than you think is reasonable, Apple would be a fantastic company.

              I’m not shilling a mega corp, I’m calling out petty bullshit. You’re the one making Apple look good by complaining about petty bullshit. Find something real to complain about.
