Durov said about the technological backwardness of the iPhone

by time news

The founder of Telegram, Pavel Durov, said that every time he tested the messenger on the iPhone, he felt that he was being thrown back into the Middle Ages.

“Every time I have to use the iPhone to test our application on iOS, I feel like I’m thrown back into the Middle Ages,” Durov wrote in his Telegram channel. He noted that 60Hz iPhone displays cannot compete with 120Hz displays on modern Android phones, which support much smoother animations.

Owning an iPhone makes people digital slaves, he said. Owners of the gadget are allowed to use only those apps that Apple allows to install through its app store, and use iCloud only to back up their data. Apple is very effectively implementing its business model based on the sale of obsolete equipment at inflated prices, Durov emphasized.

So he commented on the publication of The New York Times that Apple is involved in large-scale surveillance at the direction of China. “This is sad but not surprising: big tech companies often prefer profit over freedom,” said the founder of Telegram.
