Let's not forget that Aple pays alot of peaple for software development, while adroid is provided for free by Google and they only personalize it more or less, so they have less costs on software.

    Yeah, this is why Samsung will never hit the profit margins Apple hits. Because Apple can get away with selling a product with cheaper specs because of name recognition.

    It seems they've given up this as they still sell more phones, number-wise (almost double), than Apple. But from a business standpoint, profit is the only real winning statistic.

    I am okay with this as I would much rather get a better product for the same amount of money spent elsewhere. As a consumer, this is what we are looking for.

    Imagine if Apple priced down their iPhone? They would move a lot more units, but make the same or less profit.
