Is an iPhone worth dying for?

Forget dying, when compared to a good Android phone, I think the iPhone is not even worth buying.

So when this news of a family dying because of an EMI dispute related to the purchase of iPhone surfaced (there may be other reasons too, but I guess this was the trigger), I thought why would anyone even buy an iPhone over Android?

There is only one reason why people will buy an iPhone – to show off. In other words, to establish their superiority over others. This happens only when you feel deep inside that you are inferior and only that iPhone can prove it wrong.

But the truth is – It can’t.

You can fake it with others, but deep inside yourself, you are only enhancing your inferiority complex. So, shortly after buying, you’ll be back to square one.

I think, unless we buy a luxury product for its utility, we are just postponing our inevitable fall as each purchase is going to set you back by a big amount, and respect will keep getting more and more expensive.

PS: I know many people will not agree with my thinking, but this is what I feel. As for myself, I will not take an iPhone even if someone gives it to me for free.
