I was going to say that I agree iPhones are smartphones are of no benefit, they don't do anything, I'm being sarcastic, but looking closer at the list, how did they get it all so very wrong?
Don't need 64 bit for more than 4GB? Every new computer should have 32GB and 64GB is not unreasonable.
Don't need full HD? How does 8K resolution sound with 16K being developed?
I question their basic knowledge and experience with technological advancements for higher demand, more complicated work loads, and adcancements for security protections like 64 bit memory address randomization that can't exist on 32 bit hardware.
My parents do not need 32gb of ram to browse the internet.
