Linas, 06 Mar 201564bit processor phone with less then 4gb of Ram is marketin... morewhether 64bit matters or not is irrelevant. I was just saying that it clearly isnt old tech if they are at the front of the queue with 64bit chips.
I know nothing about technologoy? right ok, well you have just told me that its all about the CPU architecture, yet at the same time you are telling me the one in the iPhone is outdated and cheap etc. Well why then does the iPhone 6 and iPad Air 2 processor and graphics benchmark so high? even though they are only dual/triple core on low clock speeds? ARCHITECTURE. The Apple A8/A8X chip beats all android chips from last year let alone 3 years ago.
I will continue to name quality parts. The screen. Again you are talking to me about specs only, screen resolution. The iphone is over 300PPI, I cannot see much quality difference myself over that mark. The iphone screen is colour accurate, good viewing angles etc. You again are only talking about paper specs.
Im not mad, I own iPhone, high end Lumia and several Android devices. I can talk from actually using all of the devices and comparing them by looking at them, not at their spec sheet.

kendo, 05 Mar 2015haha Linas, I have never heard so nonsense in my life. I wo... more64bit processor phone with less then 4gb of Ram is marketing gimmick, even if it is in Android.
What matters is CPU architecture, which is the key factor for performance - you simply have no idea about technology and what is real stuff and what is just marketing.
Quality components in apple? which part? Cheapest battery from china manufacturer, 3 years using same camera with minor optimization? Maybe a crap low resolution LCD screen on s5?
iPhone 5s costs $160 to build and all the parts 100% made in china.. maybe except memory which is made by Samsung and camera sensor made by Sony.
Even if those components were quality 3 years ago, by the time apple starts using them in their phones those components are always in the middle of their life-cycle.
While androids manufacturers continuously use cutting edge technologies which were just recently invented.
If you still think apple have a single quality or modern component, you must be mad.

kendo, 05 Mar 2015haha Linas, I have never heard so nonsense in my life. I wo... moreIf you repeat a lie again and again people will believe it,people feel the need to buy apple products because they make you invest so much time and money into their products that when you know there's a superior product other than apple which there are and gs6 is..die hard Ifools get angry and start saying thing's like specs don't matter in the real world or its a copy and this one; professional photographers prefer 6mp cameras because of some BS; so he could have an argument about how much better an 8mp is better than sgs 5 and 6 16mp. I know right?.. What a monkey . that why so many people need to believe the lies to not to make themselves feel stupid for paying top dollar for old, cheap hardware.
I would feel insulted and stupid if Samsung create a smartphone with a pityful 8pm Camera, crappy processor mediocre display, 1g of ram and have to be worried about it bending!!!,and than paying to dollar for it.
Android and particularly Samsung followers aren't feeling stupid or envious because there's nothing to envy about apple;the Samsung Galaxy s6 is a beast and deserve the respect and admiration of apple and all you Ifools.

Linas, 04 Mar 2015This all content is misleading.. why?
Because it takes ... morehaha Linas, I have never heard so nonsense in my life. I would fully expect Samsung to sell more phones than Apple every single quarter. Apple only have a few models, Samsung have tons, and loads in the low-mid range. They should outsell Apple massively, its enough for Apple to even be in and around Samsung.
Apple uses cheap crap components which are widely available worldwide? Like the first 64bit chipset that apple used in the iphone 5S? which Android phone had 64bit chipset? Apple constantly show top components and build. Processors, Screens. Just because on paper they dont look up to the android over spec'd devices just so they can run smooth, doesnt mean its old tech.
Why people are buying them.. .simply because they are stupid? Now this is just rude. They buy an Apple product because they know they are receiving quality. They are reaceiving simplicity, reliability, regular software updates, in-store support and hardware replacement. An operating system that is simple, fluid, quality apps. They know if there is a key technology out there, Apple will release it and correctly.
I truly get that a lot of readers of this site will prefer Android for its customisation, its ability to pirate content, to have choice. But iPhone is very clearly a very strong phone itself in lots of ways and to sit there and call their users 'Stupid' is just rude. Grow up and be constructive in your arguments, you just sound like a fanboy, a childish one at that

Th... moreRight on the money. Andr-toyed phones sell where people have never seen a cell phone... once they have a reasonable choice, BB, Apple and Win phones will chew away their market share.
Agreed with ur S6 point- though I suspect that HTC will make better percentage gains this year than Samesong.
iOS will cruise for years. This coming from a BB and Win phone user... :-)

AnonD-371094, 04 Mar 2015Never xD android will own the marketLow end and mid range, yeah. But from my personal experience Android has horrible repeat purchase instances on the high end.
Most people I know who got high end Android devices have been burned by bugs or lack of updates. the HTC m7 in my country has not even gotten lollipop yet, sense 7 is far away.
Apple owns the high end market. Its phones are pure horsepower and have excellent support.

Things are going to get a LOT worse for Android OEMs.
The new Galaxy S6 will flop, the M9 as well. Sony Mobile is going out of business and the only survivors will be the Chinese OEM's who only know how to copy.
Apple is going to own this market for the next 10-20 years easily.

Anonymous, 04 Mar 2015Lol! Benchmarks prove otherwise. Naturally it performs fast... moreYou know your are wrong. Aren't you?
I know very single piece of my phone, and I know it is superior compared to iphone.
All the issues people have with android devices are actually due to the fact they are dumb and 3 buttons are already too much for them to manage.
I had all Samsung S series phones starting from S2, including Note 3 and 4 and Alpha. Currently, I even have iPhone 6 as my work phone (which I kid you not is BENT).
How can you live with your lies when you clearly know, that iphone 6 has cheapest aluminum case which bands like crazy, 8mp 3 years old camera sensor, some stupid resolution display which is not even FHD, dual core cpu which is as well clocked lower than most Androids Octa-cores.. and finally worse battery life.
I mean you can tell your stories to he kids of mentally sick people, but here nobody believes that iphone comes even close.
The only reason iphone works smooth, because it has no-features at all, while androids manage to works smooth with 100's of features. The laggy Adroids is story from 2010.
