That claim was supported by misleading benchmarks that obscured the reality that Samsung's Note 4 shipped with screen resolution that its processor wasn't engineered to handle, further dinged by Google's lackluster OpenGL performance in Android.

All true. Meanwhile the Sony Xperia Z3 has the same screen that blows away specs from both the Note 4 and Apple 6 Plus. Yet no one knows about it.

As a former Sony fanboy, there are too many models with incomprehensible names to keep track of, and the specs are too often corner cutting where robustness matters. There is no sense of loyalty to the customer. Spec sheet points seem little more than checkboxes, rather than something that may actually matter to the customer.
