The problem with Apple OSs is that Apple decides how you are suppose to use the device.

They decide that a phone/tablet/laptop is suppose to be used in a certain way and if you try to use them like a different computer form factor, you are left confused and frustrated.

I have been a long time user of Linux, Android, and Windows. I have no Apple devices and never will because every time I am forced to use one I can't figure out how to do the simplist things that is trivial on every other OS I have used. Not to mention they won't let you customize the device how you want to use it.

They do have a fantastic aesthetic and OS if you want a phone/tablet/laptop that does the simplist low-effort use, but I am always lost when trying do do anything outside of Apple's groove. They are all looks and no substance.
