Apple is not half the worldwide market

But they have a little over half the profits. Samsung has a bit less. Everyone else loses money on smartphones.

In terms of the smartwatch market, Apple sold more devices in one day than Samsung sold in a year. That's a pretty emphatic entry.

As to whether or not it's a fad or for real, time will tell (no pun intended). But I notice a lot of the arguments made against the Apple Watch use similar themes as to the ones used agains the iPod, the iPhone, and the iPad (and, to a much lesser degree, the MacBook Air) when they first came out.

That is simply untrue.

Where do you get your facts

Samsung sold 62 million smartphones first quarter 2015

Total projected sales of this watch is now 31 million this whole year

I’m typing on an IPhone 6 plus now but I’ll never get this fanaticism here over an overpriced in my view product from a now profitable but ultra liberal company

Can u explain it to me?

I myself feel no such fanaticism in life period aside from punani

The original IPhone flawed as it was most certainly revolutionized phones no question

And I do like their pads better than their phones

But I just don’t the 1963 Beatles at Idlewild hysteria
