But lacks marketing. I personally choose quality over quantity but most of the people don't. Sony produces quality hardware and software but lacks marketing. Therefore the lowered number of sales. It doesn't mean Sony didn't perform well.

        no name1, 27 Nov 2017bro... this show u have never use an iphone before....iphon... moreYou are wrong and have a fanboy mentality. I started trying iPhone with an iPhone 5s. Worst experience ever had. First time in my life I had to google "how to sync with iTunes" when I trying to put my playlist on my pc to the iPhone. Then I installed google keyboard and no our native language there and then tried to uninstall it. Then googled again "Uninstall an app from an iPhone". And no back button always had to press the home button. Frustrated and sold it. The software may be fast and optimized. But limitations are high. No freedom for the user. If you have an iPhone you have to live according to your iPhone's rules. Worst but most overrated mobile OS. Marketers targeting younger trendy audience to make something a pop culture item then it will be automatically overrated. And overhyped. You will never independent when you make decisions about that trendy stuff.

                      For example, speed tests between the OP 5T & iPhone X ... On social media apps [non-game apps], the OP 5T was much faster and has better RAM management [8 GB].

                                Non-tech business people and narcissistic people who want to show off only buy iPhone. This shows how non-tech and narcissistic most of the people in the UK.

This forced " A" lead, pretention is wearing a little thin, Am pro corp fake news ?
