The conflict between Apple fans and anti-fans due to different interests was probably the most persistent and strongest in the history of fans and anti-fans in the technology world that I have ever experienced. But basically life is like that, at first it was Nikon vs Canon... later it was Sony vs everyone... Sony was even better than Leica.

However, in anticipation of drastic changes from Apple's roots, even going against their traditions, even within the Apple fan community, opposing opinions have arisen. People who were previously open to receive new things from Apple may become closed when they see that this year's new thing is too new. Those who compromise, opening faster or easier, accept it faster.

In Vietnam, through the comments on Facebook, Youtube, Delicate, where I posted my comments, I saw many comments that seemed tense and through that I also understood that there was a certain similarity in the content of different Apple fan groups.

Most prominently, it can be said that Mark Gurman replied to a post by i.Justine blaming him and i.Justine's post itself was also criticizing JerryRigEverything channel about the iPhone Duo durability test. What iJustine means is that the iPhone Duo is broken because she intentionally broke it, but her iPhone is fine.

The conflict also spread to law enforcement when a French journalist criticized iJustine's reaction.

The durability issue of the iPhone Duo is not over yet, but the touch screen on the new MacBook Pro is also seriously dividing Apple's fan base.

**iJustine (Justine Ezarik)**is an American technology and lifestyle YouTuber, famous since the late 2000s, with millions of followers. She is attached to the Apple ecosystem and is often sent devices early by the company, so she is often considered a "pro-Apple" reviewer. Her videos are more about fun, easy-to-watch experiences than technical dissections.

Mark Gurman is a reporter for Bloomberg, considered the most reliable Apple leak source today. Before joining Bloomberg, he wrote for 9to5Mac. Gurman often breaks news about Apple's products, roadmaps and internal affairs, and has the weekly Power On newsletter. Because he does journalism and not reviews, he often takes the side of users when the product has problems.

**JerryRigEverything (Zack Nelson)**is an American YouTuber famous for durability tests: scratching the screen with a hardness tester, burning the screen, bending the machine, then disassembling the machine to see the internal structure. His videos are often used as a measure of the durability of new phones, especially folding phones. Zack often points out the weaknesses of products, including Apple's.

In September Mark Gurman also had a post criticizing Apple and through that also caused some discomfort for those invited by Apple to attend the event.

Neil Cybart's post also received a lot of criticism and he also tried to explain that it was because he was stuck holding the phone so he didn't touch it properly...

Conclusion: Not only KOLs, Reviewers, and Vietnamese users are divided over Apple's new products, but it is a global phenomenon. Please relax.
