15 iPhone Memes That Sum Up Everyone's Love Hate Relationship With Apple's Iconic Device

Ever since the iPhone came out -- which is exactly 10 years ago today -- the device has attracted a lot of attention.

While the hugely popular Apple device commands a loyal fan following, it's not the Apple of everyone's eye -- to put it mildly. And as with any popular defining element of our culture, the iPhone too has been immortalized through a series of unforgettable memes through the years. Here we recollect some of our favourites.

1) iPhone takes a huge lead

This is exactly what it was like when the iPhone burst onto the scene. It had so many original ideas, it was so far ahead of the competition, that the competition was either tapping out or busy copying features from Apple's newest device.

2) Antennagate

After the iPhone 4 suffered from a lot of call drops, Steve Jobs suggested that people were just holding the phone wrong. #truestory

3) Autocorrect LOLs

One of the most fascinating aspects of the iPhone was its internal autocorrect feature. Leading to a lot of hilarity! It's the stuff of legends, believe me.

4) The Apple Maps debacle

When Apple Maps debuted with the iPhone 5, it was a half-baked service pushed out of the door at launch. Obviously, it wasn't the best at giving directions at the time -- something that led to a lot of giggles.

5) The iPhone was great, but the battery...

As the iPhone got slimmer (but not longer) and more power-packed, people started noticing that its battery didn't necessarily last all that long. Excruciating.

6) Buying an iPhone...

... is like a selling a kidney. Or two. A strong perception that Android users just can't shake for some reason.

7) Bendgate

When Apple launched the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus, early reports started suggesting that the phone was prone to bending, when you'd keep it in your trouser pocket. Oops.

8) The spoon doesn't exist, right?

"You'll see that it is not the spoon that bends, it is only yourself."

9) With every new iPhone, people observed an unmistakable trend

10) Just make it longer?

People's imagination flew, you see.

11) When the iPhone 7 came without a headphone jack

Yeah, after much speculation, the iPhone 7 pulled the plug on the 3.5mm headphone jack. Leading to a lot of memes, obviously.

12) Even ones with a Titanic reference

Get it yet?

13) But the fans don't care either way. Because...

This is what it boils down to, no matter how much Android fans like to cry out loud.

14) A thought exhibited by iPhone fans

15) Lastly...
