    Uhh Apple doesn't force you to buy their protection plan. And any new iPhone comes with a 1 year warranty.

    and what exactly makes it worth 300 + dollars?

    For me personally -

    1. Integration with apple ecosystem. I have a lot of apps and other apple products that they all hook into. For example - I have a couple appleTV's that I can use the Iphone5 to control them. If I have a video/music on my iphone with a swipe of the finger I can instantly send it to my TV and have it playback on that.

    2. Touch screen - In my opinion Apple has the most responsive touch screen in the industry. Much better then my Droid. And this is very important for a phone that only has a touch screen for controlling it.

    3. LTE smartphone - I realize this isnt unique to Apple, but it is a reason why I value this product at the 300 I paid.

    4. 32GB - Seemed like a sweet spot for content. I could have saved 100 dollars and got the 16GB version but I valued the extra 16GB for 100 dollars. It's not worth it on a price/MB chart, but it's the tax I have to pay to have the iphone.

    5. Social media integration - Again not unique to apple but a reason I value the product at that.

    I think that's about it.

    When I went to AT&T they told me it isn't protected unless I bought a $60 plan through Apple. Because if it'd start screwing up or break, they couldn't do anything about it. At that time it didn't get protected just because you bought the phone

    I don't know this for sure but I'm almost positive IPhone's have always come with a 1 year warrenty. So you can take some of that hate for apple and put it towards AT&T for making you buy that plan.

    Android FTW
    Otter Box ftw

    You can throw your phone across a room and it would be fine.

    Agreed. I like to get the thinnest case possible that covers the sides and back of my iPhone.

    Right now I have an incipio case that's nice and thin on my 4s.
