Wow! Apple is amazing!
BUT ... have no worries ... I know there are a number of FReepers who regularly show up saying Apple is just about ready to FAIL ... because all Apple has done is simply fool a 100 Million customers ... :-) ...

Bill Gates gets billions to waste on pet feel-good projects while the US worker gets....food stamps.

Samsung is easy.
“How much of that Apple profit is because technology sold in the US is manufactured overseas with cheap labor or in the US by green card holders who undermine the US worker?”
That statement can be worded to address almost every American company out there.
That’s a lot of moolah.
“Samsung is easy. “
I think it depends on what you get used to. My wife has an android and I can’t stand it.
Hypnotoad works -- I wasn't kidding, the iPhone is not even as good as the Galaxy V and the bigger one is not as good as the Note 4.
APPLE: redecorating yesterday's technology for the drones today!
No, people who buy phones based solely on brand are baffling..............
A phone is best used as a phone and a computer as a computer. Computers are nearly dirt cheap and best mounted nearly anywhere other than on people.

Here’s the thing about that ... and speaking from experience ... I’ve got the iPhone and iPad. Now with the iPhone, I’ve actually compared it to the Android models (from some others around me). I’ve had time to actually use the Android phone and it just doesn’t compare, in any good way, to the iPhone. Also the infrastructure for the iPad and iPhone isn’t there for Android, not in the seamless way it is for the iOS devices. My actual hands-on experience shows that.
NOW ... you say that is simply “buying on brand” ... while I would say it’s from hands-on experience ... which then “recognizes” the brand as superior.
From all aspects of the USAGE I can see no reason why anyone would want an Android phone (or tablet). It baffles me as to why people want that junk ... but ... when I look around in the overall market, I do see that there are always people who buy junk. So, I guess that applies with Android, too.
