None of these things REALLY matter, the iPhone is the 'in' product. The reason why everyone and their mother has an iPhone isn't because they check out the benchmarks, or compared other camera's in low level lighting (Z1/2/3 and S4/5 are the best smartphone camera's I've seen) or care about app data privacy etc. They are bought because they look pretty (design of the phone and UI) and are popular. Lets keep it real, even if it was a tiny bit faster than the 5s but looked the same as the 6 and 6+ do it would've sold pretty much the same.

I was just responding to people implying the iphone is vastly inferior to the competition and its success is undeserved, which is false. It's true that the "cool" image Apple painted for the iPhone plays a major part in its success, and there is nothing wrong with that. But it's important to note that Apple also makes sure that the iPhone isn't just "cool" , but it's also great. 

It’s a great phone, they just need to work on key features like battery life, more RAM for multitasking and more customisation. Upping the MP count would be great aswell considering the have great sensors and 4k recording natively would be a nice touch.
