The hype about Apple


Everyone knows Apple. They are #1 in sales and recognition. 
But what’s the Hype about Apple? I am a tech guru, I know a lot about mechanical engineering and all. Not only are they top line, but they are beautifully designed. Yes, Apple is a brilliant thing, and their industrial designs are something special. Apple advances in giving customers the best.

Apple is popular amongst my peers because it is a hot electronic to own. Although a lot of our parents pay for the things we brag about, we still try to make ourselves look somewhat…important. For my generation, everything is like a competition. We have to have the hottest phone (preferably the iPhone), and spend their whole McDonald’s paycheck on a pair of shoes JUST to impress people we don’t even know or like.  Yes, I like Apple. I used to want to work for them and join their design team. But the over-hype we are giving apple is ridiculous.  This is an opinion.

Yes, Apple is a good, prosperous, brilliant company. But the people who own it (I’m talking about a majority of my peers) don’t know “APPLE”. They just know the name. This majority of them don’t care about its micro chips, and processors, or what even makes it so clear and beautiful! They just know its Apple and everyone has one. I would like us to begin to have minds of our own, and stop trying to impress everyone around us. Even though, that is not gunna happen. The ones who truly know Apple have droids. Because we are smart and we are not ignorant to Apple.

Like a company should, they want your money. The money that you don’t have. And it works! We know that droid is capable of doing things that Apple and MAC won’t do. And being a tech nerd, that is very very annoying to us. Another thing is Apple has a plan. A plan that requires you to keep buying their products so that someday, their final plan can work out. For those of you who don’t know the plan,*shrugs*, my point again, you’re just buying because of the brand name. Good, that’s what the company wants you to do.  I commend the kids that worked HARD for theirs, made good grades in college or just got an upgrade. But for those of us being showy, in reality…please, at least learn a little about what you are purchasing. For those of you, who don’t care, don’t. But I hope in the future when you grow up and mature, that you will start too.
