Come to real life: Bring galaxy s3 with quad core ARM a9, 1gb RAM and Mali mp4 vs iPhone 4s dual core, 0.5 gb of and power VR. Ok?
Now download Real racing 3 on both. Open Facebook and couple of applications.ok?. Now play the game on both phones.ok? And comeback and tell us about performance of both phones. (I can tell you because l have both, 4s was the better).
My point is, do not talk about hardware without considering the software. Apple iPhone is running iOS and not android system. So, what applies to android ( the need for 3gb of ram) not necessarily applies for iOS.
I don't think that apple is saving much bucks by providing it's iphone with less RAM. And by the way, if you are counting RAM, the price of 1gb RAM of higher speed, type can be more expensive than 3gb of RAM of lower quality.
And a good news to please you, the coming phone may have 2 gb of RAM, happy now??

"Apple uses much higher capacity of Ram secretly". Hidden key feature behind the smoothest OS.

Apple users convince themselves of all sorts of things, regardless of the of the technical facts. Sorry, it's not possible to fit 3gbs worth of applications running into 1gb, no matter how much you lie to yourself.

The truth is iOS is best and Apple revolutionized Smartphone even Nokia had to sell its phone business.
Only Nokia can give tough competition to Apple. How Nokia uses Android that would be nice to see.

The 1GB RAM phone you are mock... moreIt performs good on single core only. And with simple OS.
Can not beat the GalaxyS or Note functionality at all.
You can not compare motorbike and SUV only on speed. Right?
See, feature phones perform faster than iPhone , even much less memory.

First of all apple will not go broke.
Apple will not make a great deal in China which is 84% owned by Android and China many suppliers
Idk what the % is is in India but again another very high figure
So expect apple to bottom out but it seems iPhones are bought as the desired and default. Phone checking what the specs are not necessary

The 1GB RAM phone you are mocking performed better than most/all 3GB RAM android phones.
If this is a rule, then people who bought expensive 2 seat car should have bought a 7 seat one, or even a bus. LOL

Why should anyone by Nokia (Faxconn with nokia mark) phone with android ? E.g. if Nokia show today new smartphone it cant be worse then HTC 10, LG G5, Samsung S7, Note 7, Sony Z5, OnePlus3. So what new, better can Nokia show us ? And what it will be priced ? Higher then Samsung Note 7...impossible nobody will buy it. But today its hard to sell phone if you was outside market by several years. Partnership with Microsoft was mistake, WP/WM is almost dead. When they abandoned Symbian, phone sales goes even worse. Then they sold mobile part to MS. But..they gave MS for a few years own (Nokia) brand, and Ms = very poorly managed mobile department. Phoens was nothing special, WP system devping was terrible. A lot of people have lost confidence in the Nokia / Lumia.
And now what are the advantages of Nokia ? Great camera devices like Nokia 808 PV 1020? I dont think so. Maybe maps OVI/HERE maps? Oh ... they sold them. What better will have Nokia then Sony, LG and Samsung ? Same hardware but cheaper and better own Sense/TouchWiz ? Something worse and a little cheaper? Rather they dont win the price of Xiaomi, OnePlus.
For Nokia probably is too late, the market is divided between the players and old strengths that had long since lost.

Herodroid, 19 Aug 2016please apple dont die!! android needs you in competition!That's the only reason I want them around, competition breeds exemplary products. Apple still sucks though and I hope their market share stays just high enough for them to keep releasing rehashed iCrap devices.
