Yeah, no way that is a serious statement. My Macbook Air from 2011 still works perfectly, and the original iPhone that I found stashed inside one of my dad's cabinets charged, turned on without issues and was fully usable as well. That's a device that's almost two decades old. If that's not hardware quality, I don't know what is.

Apple had to replace the motherboard in our MBP 7 times before they told us the next repair would cost us $1200. So we sued them in a class action, and we won.

We own Apple stock, and I've worked as a Mac SysAdmin and we'll never buy another Apple product.

Antenna-gate ("you're holding it wrong"), the "magic mouse" with the charging port on the bottom, the shitty keyboard problems, screen problems, etc, etc... Apple misses the mark a lot on its hardware.

Only someone firmly in the grasp of the reality distortion field will claim that Apple hardware is superior.
