If Apple are so great they'd be manufacturing their own products instead they have to get people like Samsung to make their screens etc for them.
You say that Samsung copied Apple but the majority of Apple products are copied from someone elses product, sometimes improving on it sometimes not, then having a hissy fit because you think someone copied the thing you copied in the first place.
I am sorry, I couldn't understand you. I like to talk about the Apple maps because it is an example of Apple ingenuity. What has Apple done that you think is special?
how exactly you would make maps different? Could you be more specific? Would you make them in different color?
In last Q4/2012 was sold 50 millions of iPhone 5 and 26 millions of iPads and they did not sold more because they cannot manufacture enough of them. Every single company tries to make a clone of it. So I'm pretty sure that it's not a but always there will be crying pricks like you.
I would do what Google did and make it so that the maps actually got you where you are supposed to go. The maps would also display the images of locations without distortions maybe, like zigzagging bridges would be bad. Why are you talking about maps anyway?
Android phones are being sold in greater numbers than the iPhone, and soon Apple devices will be the minority like the OS. I am not crying at all, Apple's business plan will ruin them without me having to do anything.
What is your favorite feature of the iPhone that makes it so good?
Hey that's cool..., I just bought my wife a Samsung Note which runs Android. I'm glad to be in the "in" crowd instead of the "soon to be the out" crowd ;)
I'm using iPad, it's well crafted device, safe, stable. Also I like the little thing that Apps for iPad, actually are apps for iPad and not just some random device with IOS. They will work perfectly and no viruses.
It sounds like Apple came up with their idea and haven't really expanded much. Now that there is competition it seems the features you love are quite standard. I am glad you enjoy your tablet. Hold on tight, don't drop it.
The fact that Apple sold a bunch of stuff means nothing. Think about the bell curve. Now think about your average stupid person and realize that half of the world's population is stupider than that. That's a lot of stupid people. It doesn't take a rocket scientists to sell them Apple crap ;)
Is English your second language? I'm asking because you are probably a good person but you haven't taken the time to fill out your profile, so I'll never know where you are from! ;)
Texting and walking can be detrimental to your health. Especially when you are trying to figure out just what exactly has Apple done that is so special ;)
It may have been special, but clearly is no longer that special. A bunch of idiots bought a product, the sector tried to capitalize on that. Trends show that the other companies are doing a better job now
I've spend a while by comparing tablets, iPad won, never been fan of any particular brand. There are only two competitors to iPad, Galaxy tab which is weaker and costs pretty much same ...yes it has microSD card slot but I've never had use of it...
You can be honest with us, you didn't spend any time comparing tablets. We know you are an Apple fanboy, don't worry. How long will it take you to admit that a company has a better tablet? Never, people like you like your Apple junk for no reason. Apple was the leader in smart phones for a while and will be toppled, just as they are the leader of tablets now. It won't last much longer, but you fanboys don't care anyway. Apple makes the greatest stuff on Earth to you forever
My cellphone is Motorola and all my cellphones for past 15 years were Motorola. This is my second iPad I've spent a great time by comparing tablets, I didn't found any better, I found cheaper tablets but not better. I've never had anything else from Apple so your hypothesis is a BS.
So you don't think the iPhone is good, just the iPad? Well, it will not be long before we say that about their tablets as well. Hopefully you will be able to escape fanboy hell
So if Samsung copied Apple, Apple copied Blackberry and Sony who probably copied someone else because Sony dont have original ideas they normally take someone elses idea and make it smaller and better its what they've been doing for years
I think iPad's are a little better than Samsung tablets. I've owned both but i think iPad's are a little better because it has a bigger screen and is a little easier to navigate through.
So if we consider the worst case scenario in that apple leaves taking say 9 billion and no new business is generated...
148.944 - 8 = 140.944 or a 5% loss....
Considering that after paying all the bills they had 12 billion left over i really doubt it will destroy the company.. its important to note that "semiconductors" are needed in every single electronic device we use today. There are plenty more fish who need parts.
Conclusion: Apple sucks as they always have and always will.....
Have they robbed me..., personally? No. I'm not they type who would buy a phone that needs to be held a certain way in order to get good reception. I am also not the type to upgrade my phone 6 months after the fact and end up with a phone that bends ;)
Apple only wishes that they could do half as good as Samsung, never bought one thing produced by Apple. I did receive a Apple product as a gift, I almost vomited.
A billion dollars is nothing to these companies. Samsung managed to avoid a product ban, and that is the only thing that matters to them. Also, the patent situation has gotten out of hand. Whether or not Apple was justified in suing Samsung, software patents have gotten to the point where it is almost impossible to create a large piece of software without infringing on some company's patent. I believe that the patent office is going to need to step in at some point, and create better guidelines, so that companies cannot sue others as easily.
No. I've owned both iPhone and Samsung and i found Samsung phones to be better but the iPhone is a little easier to navigate through though that might be because i've had an iPhone for about 2 years and a Samsung for about 3 months. in conclusion i've found Samsung phones to be better.by the way here is just how creative iPhones models are compared to Samsung phones
