Apple has dominated the race for profit not market share. I guess Samsung has decided to try the same approach.

Absolutely agree... they build a very profitable phone with very old components and people pay huge markups for it. Great business model, terrible technology.

They stopped reporting iPhone unit sales. They are going to go full Nokia in the next 12 months.

I remember when Nokia had a billion handsets on the market. “Who can make war with the beast?” was the question at the time.

Nokia’s share price has been flat around $5 to $7 a share for a long time now.

Apple won’t go out of business, but they likely won’t be a player much longer.
