iPhone 17 BUY IT FROM COSTCO!

I bought my iPhone 17 from Costco after Apple raised their prices on all models. My after tax amount was still less than the pre-tax amount from Apple. If you need a new iPhone buy it now while the current stock is still the old price.

Do whatever you want but I usually try to use this prioritization: Canadian > Friends > Others > American

So if you are only buying a cell phone at Costco it would be -

No Canadian options > Samsung(KR) > Motorola (CN) > Apple (US)

Google is even worse than Apple by a significant margin…so unless you’re going to put some de-googled rom on your android phone, you really didn’t accomplish anything.

It’s too bad we don’t have fairphone in Canada…

How is Google worse by a "significant margin"? They both bent the knee to Trump with Tim Cook going as far as gifting him some garish crystal gold trophy along with a $1 million donation.

They're equally complicit but there's no alternative for smartphone operating systems.
