Does that mean I'm after a fashion statement? Does that mean I like a name brand? Am I only doing it because of hype?
If you want to take your little anecdote and apply it to everyone to explain them doing things and then show those reasons as bad, then go ahead, but no one reasonable is going to pay attention to you and about all you will accomplish is getting an emotional response from the people who you've painted with your anecdotal brush (which is basically what trolling is).
I know it's easier just to assume everyone who likes something you don't does so for one reason and that reason is something you look down on, but that's pretty immature.

Well let's settle this thing; what name brand is your purse??
edit: Also you're kind of creating a position for me then attacking it which isn't quite fair. I'm not saying the ONLY reason buy iPhones is for a fashion statement. I'm saying that's a huge chunk of their market. Apples biggest selling point they have left, which I did say, is they've created a strong and loyal base who don't really care what the competition is doing. They like their iPhones and if it's the best phone or not is not a concern of theirs.
People who go iPhone to android then back to iPhone are a minoriy, and I'm sure you have logical reasons to do so (maybe I dont want to assume) you also don't represent the majority. No where in my post did I say I can apply my one anectode to everyone, so again, you're debating an argument and a position I haven't taken.
