We’re not sure if it’s just an effect of the Apple branding scheme or if the iPhone’s just really
phenomenal, but it seems like people are actually going crazy over these smartphones. While
the tech arena is going nuts over which smartphone is the best, hardcore Apple addicts are
busying themselves in showing off their great fanaticism by..

# 1 Dressing the iPhone With Gold and Diamonds

We all know that Apple fans treat their iPhones like a status symbol from heavens above. And
that’s not bad at all, seeing that the iPhone is one of the most expensive smartphones in the
market. But really, does it have to be so insanely and blatantly shown to the world? Some crazy
Apple fans think so. So much so that some of them would sell iPhone 4 units bedecked in
diamonds as well as iPhone 5s plated in real gold. Check this bedazzled iPhone 4 from jeweler
Stuart Hughes. Also, people from Gold & Co. probably hated the aluminum iPhone 5 design
which is why they chose to sell iPhone embraced with 24-karat gold. The iPhone 4 with
diamonds can be bought for $20,000 while the gold plated 64 GB iPhone 5 will be sold in Dubai
(the price is still unknown).

# 2 Declaring Love for the New Apple Maps App on Twitter

Gizmodo recently reported that 17 possibly insane people tweeted about their true love for the
iPhone 5’s new Maps app. Seriously though, did they really get to see what the app does? It
melts bridges, makes rocky roads seem unearthly rockier and changes street names like a
prankster. Okay, these 17 people may be the lucky ones who never have to sell iPhone 5 back
to get a real map instead and they probably live in towns where GPS is amazing and the data is
complete. I hope they don’t need to fly off somewhere else though because in some other parts
of the Apple Map, deep down in its core, the taste of “beta” still remains. Okay, so let’s give
Apple a break, may be they’re just having a hard time with their Google breakup; they’ve been
together for years. Let’s cut them some slack and give the app some time to grow and then
move on to crazier things like…

# 3 Spending More on the iPhone Than Basic Necessities

Wall Street Journal recently reported of stats showing that Americans are spending more and
more money on their phone bills and cutting back on food, clothes and entertainment. Since
more than half of America owns smartphones like the iPhone, the need for mobile carrier plans
has disturbed the budgets of families in the country. The studies also shown that all these
changes were felt starting in 2007, around the time the iPhone was first released and people
spent an average of $1,110 a year for phone bills. In 2011, the numbers rose to 4 percent with
people spending an average of $1,226 on their bills. Looks like people need to trade iPhone to
get a life!
