One downside of being an Apple fan is a light wallet. Sure, it’s easier to carry around but most people would rather deal with the slight difference in weight than having less money. Sadly, smartphones aren’t getting any cheaper and the demand is only increasing. Thankfully, YouTube has picked up on that and released a video on how to make your very own iPhone.
YOUTUBE TURNS ANDROID INTO AN IPHONE
Building an iPhone isn’t as easy as getting some employees, outsourcing their jobs and receiving a box of smartphones in the mail a week later. No, it takes a bit more effort and far less corruption than all that. Fortunately, YouTube has a method to get an Apple device without the massive guilt of ruining America’s economy and the lives of overworked factory employees. All it takes is an Android device. A little imagination helps too. As seen on said YouTube video, using a unique launcher, one can install a simple, iOS-like interface on an Android device. This gives the power of Apple’s iPhone without the need for the device itself.
APPLE NO LONGER NEEDED
For years, Cupertino has relied on their iPhone’s popularity in mainstream society to keep the product afloat. People see their friends with an iPhone and suddenly, they need one. Then their friends need one and so forth. Apple has capitalized on the fact that it’s cool to own their devices but now, YouTube hopes to change that. Android devices are far more affordable than their counterparts and now that YouTube shows the world how to get all the benefits of Apple on and Android, it’s not necessary to shell out thousands of dollars for a smartphone. Granted, it’s not an exact replica of iOS, but it’s enough to look cool and that’s really what the majority of smartphones users really care about.
THE DIY GENERATION
This instructional video is just one example of many that show how we are entering the golden age of do-it-yourself. Millennials are often accused of having everything given to them with minimal effort, but society underestimates their willingness to go DIY. More frequently we are seeing examples of homemade technology devices, home repair jobs, and even DI entertainment. No longer is society relying on other to get what they want. The invention of the internet has allowed information to be spread the whole world over, and we are starting to use that to our advantage.
