This is why I love Apple

My wife dropped her iPhone and shattered the screen. Made an appointment at the genius bar for today. Showed up and the guy took a look at it and told me that since it was physical damage it wasn't covered and cost like $150 to replace the screen. I already figured that and just wanted it fixed so I told him it wasn't a big deal as I understood it was our fault. He tells me he will brb, and comes out with a brand new iPhone and gives it to us free of charge.


Fuck yeah!

They have gotten a lot better with their return policies.
They are (for now atleast) Head and shoulders above the rest.

Ummm...you are paying $600.00 for a $150.00 phone... They should have given you a reach around with your iphone purchase while they broke you down like a shotgun and made you squeal like a pig.

FYI, Samsung just overtook Apple as the worlds largest seller of smart phones.

Are you surprised at Samsung overtaking Apple? Samsung has 900 types of phones while Apple has 3. The worst part is that it's pretty close regardless.

As for $600 for a $178 phone, I think that the term is markup.
