Apple has suddenly created a need that wasnt there before. It's brought awareness to a product that was niche before. Apple are smart that way, they know how to steer a market. It will take 2 years and the majority of oems will have similar products.

That's what Apple R&D achieves.

    Yes Samsung invents less and copy more BUTTT no one could do like Samsung note series. Whatever in fact Samsung does is not to derive his fan buyers that kind of facilities.

      AnonD-364786, 27 Jan 2016You are not realizing how ridiculous your argument is Pretty accurate argument if you ask me. Have curved screens and edges really satisfied customers needs? No. There was no need to begin with.

      Getting a new handset automatically every 12 months without thinking about it and without locking yourself to a Telco is the smartest thing ever, and Samsung didn't come up with it.

                      samsung = expensive + terrible user interface + poor ram management.

                          Idk why people here saying Samsung is copying Apple. Guys, not all Apple's doing are bad.

                          And this leasing program is actually good. It helps you to upgrade your phone with cheaper prices.

                                who cares if a company is coping another, the only important thing is the price/perfomance relation, and apple products are the worst

                                    Apple copies the car and other industries that allows to lease their product, no one bats an eye.

                                    Samsung does the something, everyone looses their fucking minds.

                                      There is in Finland already Sonera upgrade for Samsung and Apple phones. S6 and so on. You pay 1st year 60-70% total value and after 1 year can change to new model.
