I’m looking for any facts coming to a contrary conclusion. Indeed does look like the rest of the industry is barely keeping afloat, with Samsung doing best only because it’s learning from building the key components for Apple.

Simply observing facts doesn’t warrant the indicated ad-hominem non-sequitur.

Not a non-sequieur if you understand it.

If not, plenty of others will.

(Samsung) sold 95 million handsets in the fourth quarter, of which 71 million to 76 million of them were smartphones. Rival Apple sold 74.5 million iPhones in its fiscal first quarter. I guess that huge profit came because for Apple they lump in IPads.
