The only smartphone I have ever had in my life has been a type of iPhone. Before that, I had the old reliable prepaid flip-phone and, of course, the ever-fashionable LG enV 2 in maroon. Then, I wanted to be cool and I got an iPhone 4 and then an iPhone 6. And now, here I am cursing my iPhone and its inability to function.

Each day it gets worse and worse and every day I curse louder and louder.

Finally, I decided to switch to a non-iPhone and I bought the Google Pixel 2. Here are five reasons why I will never give any more money to Apple and why iPhones suck:

1. I download one app and I run out of storage

I cannot even count the number of times where I had to delete my apps and pictures just to take one more picture or download one app. I call my phone old unreliable because it's never there for me when I need it most. When I wanted to take pictures of my cousin at his baptism, in the middle of the mass, my phone said that I could not take any more pictures because I ran out of storage. So, thank you to Apple for that.

2. My GPS is nonexistent

I go to school two hours away and I drive there by my self on the highway. I need to have a good GPS that will get me there safely. However, on MULTIPLE occasions, I will be using my Apple Maps to get me to school and all of a sudden it will crash as I'm doing 75mph on the highway.

So, then I naturally freak out because I have no idea where to go without my GPS and I have to use my phone while driving to get the app to work again so I don't get lost. Thanks again Apple for making me almost die!

3. My phone is so slow

The lag on my phone is ridiculously slow. I can click on an app and it will take 30 seconds to open. Even making a phone call is difficult because trying to type a phone number takes forever. If I'm ever in an emergency and need to use my phone to call 911, it would take me a good five minutes just to open up the phone keypad.

4. The battery life is terrible

I bought a $100 charging case for my phone because my phone would die within a few hours of use. I'm a busy college student who is out all day, so I need a phone that will last all day with me. The iPhone has never been able to last me half a day's worth of battery.

5. Apple is overpriced

In addition to the $1000 phones and $100 a month for unlimited data, texting, and calling, you ALSO have to pay for storage (that the phone should have included!). I pay extra money each month for iCloud just so my phone doesn't run out of storage, but it still does despite this extra cost. The amount of money that Apple makes off of one person is absolutely insane when the phones probably cost them a few dollars to make.

I say down with big phone companies, like Apple, claiming to be the best but not providing the best! I will never buy an Apple product again in my life due to the past experiences I've had with iPhones.
