Just WOW, looks like it was android users who waited these bigger iPhones more than anyone else.
It was the android users who made Apple record sales, this would definately irritate android users :D

Wow 1 billion Android phones is a LOT of phones!
But I'm curious how many of those are Google Android (with Google Services) and how many are AOSP Android (non-Google Android)?
According to the Wall Street Journal, non-Google Android was 37% of all Android shipped in 3rd Quarter of 2014 across the globe. That's almost 4 phones out of every 10 shipped worldwide.

The iPhone 6 is better, for my money.
Apparently more people agree with me than with you.
I am sure some people consider Roseanne Barr to be better looking than Keira Knightley, too. And cheaper, per the pound.

By better build quality you mean bendable with little amount of pressure? And better camera?? Lol How hilarious you Apple fanboys really are!! Note 4 is miles ahead of the 6+, it's in a class of it's own. The display is in a class of it's own with perfect black and highest absolute color accuracy, also bigger by 7% while the phone is only half mm of more width on each side! The 4K video recording is in a class if it's own, the active stylus and it's exclusive features is amazing, a class of it's own, the battery life for such a huge screened device with highest resolution display is in a class of it's own. And the VR capability of it is stunning and unbelievably smooth for a mobile device, the one and only with Oculus software and full support. It can send Bluetooth files to other phones and it has universal remote control capability. Everything is top notch, and it starts with 32 GB of internal storage ! Just wow. A normal person would definitely see that the iPhone 6+ has nothing on it. :)

AnonD-126854, 30 Jan 2015So, in short.
No matter of all this noise made by the appl... moreAndroid when down... MS and Apple when up.
Android share drop from 85% to 80%...
Not doomsaying Android, but It means the premium market is dominated by iPhones now. And Android took the middle and lower end market.
But in the end Android will have more market share, as its cheaper with its entry level phones. And people who already own iPhones can easily get a few droid to test around.
But to drop like 5% is alarming... it means people realise entry/mid droid is bad performance.. and rather spend abit more to get iPhones.

LO... moreBut the iPhone has better design, better build quality, better camera, better fingerprint sensor...
Yeah, I am happy to pay $200 more for these things. And yes, I've had a number of Galaxies and none has been close to perfect experience for me, as the iPhone 6+ is.
It's like arguing that a Prada purse is not worth it, compared to an Ikea bag. To each their own.
