      Corrupt Samsung, they are a mega monopoly of a company, they stifle all development and use illegal tactics to intimidate others. Thy are the Microsoft of the new millennium.

          Awesome numbers, Samsung does deserve this and why not as they are the guys who revolutionized the mobile phones world. Just Imagine had they not been here what would have been the situation with the rustic Blackberries, Nokias and the Apples.?????

                Anonymous, 25 Jan 2013...... apple made 13 billion in the same quarter.... thats ... moreDon't compare like this. Both the companies are master in smartphone era. Its just that the number of sales in Samsung is more than iPhone but if you look at the profit margin for selling each galaxy phone and iphone, then there is huge difference. The only reason why Apple making huge profit is high profit margin. Otherwise, if you check the article where sales comparison between Amazon and Apple is mentioned, any company in the world is not even near to the sales figure of Amazon, and if its stock is calculated on the basis of sales, then the price of each stock would be more the $100,000 and the market cap of the company would be $130 trillion.

                    First of all i have to say i own only sony products:xperia j,bravia 3d tv,vaio laptop,home cinema,car mp3, handycam,even earphones,flash memory and others(in fact all products are made by sony except things they don't produce:washing machine and pressing iron).I'm here to say i don't understand you guys...why you fighting.I mean i love sony products but it's just my opinion,i never tried to convince someone to buy them over any other brands,and i have no problem with people buying gadgets from other manufacturers.For me sony products feel premium,quality made and best design.But this is a smartphone forum so i will speak about them a little.I use my smartphone for easy tasks so i don't need something better than my xperia j.It doesn't lag,i'm satisfied with everything.Today when my teacher saw my phone he was amazed by the look and ask me to give him for some minutes to play with it(and he owns the new google nexus,and it is 3xexpensive than my phone).I have friends with sgs3 and they complained to me they can't receive calls sometimes,the phone lag and other issues.And btw they make the same things i make with my phone,so i'm wondering why they need quad core.Samsung flagship s3 feels cheaper than my xperia j and it looks ugly(but beauty is just about taste,so for others sgs3 may look good).What i want to say in conclusion is i think people are ignorant and they are not considering what they need,they buy "numbers" even they don't need those performances.I respect samsung because they can fool people they need quad cores or octo cores.With a stable OS,a dual core krait processor will be enough for everyone.I just hope next time you'll buy something put things in balance and choose what's best,don't be a sheep,a part of flock.If everyone around you has phone X(i don't wanna name one) don't buy it because of that!Be unique,be special!Sorry for language mistakes i'm from romania.Good luck guys and don't forget to respect anyone's choice.

                                ollyb1, 25 Jan 2013its not everyone root their phones so your point is irrelevant. ahaha so as of now. you still dont know the beauty of open source. easy root access is connected to the nature of android developments. thats the first step if you wanna explore android and its abilities. if a simple rooting eats a lot of time then i swear there is no developer who willing to waste time for that phone :)

                                        rcl4444, 25 Jan 2013I don't follow... By your logic Apple fanboys must be even ... moreFrom below comment.. it seems someone who has S3 is eagerly awaiting S4.

                                        Most iphone users i know is waiting for one per 2 years.. 4 will wait on 5 .. 3gs will wait on 4s etc etc..

                                        Don get me wrong, sorry if i offend.
