Only the iPhone (marketed to morons) does NOT get better, faster & cheaper.

While you can get Android phones with 1/10th the exploits and 10x the 
hardware functionality for a few hundred bucks - the iPhone is expensive.

The reason is Apple has groomed an especially lucrative religious 
following, which is fine - except that Samsung & Google try to copy Apple.

Luckily, Android phones _do_ get better faster & cheaper over time, so as 
long as you stay away from the Samsung/Google iPhone copies you're fine.

Can you name a single other common consumer electronic device other than 
the iPhone (which even Apple says in their ads they market to morons) 
that does NOT get better, faster & cheaper over time?

The unfortunate thing about iPhones is that they are pretty much the _only_ 
common consumer electronics which does NOT get better faster & cheaper.
