ALonZo, 05 Nov 2011Samsung make me laugh. So do their obsessive fans. They hav... moresamsung had many phones because each carrier decided to differentiate their's from others.. you can't just blurt out opinion and decide anyone who against it is stupid, you're not a kid anymore..
apple here to do some business, if what you said is true, then apple is the stupid one, because they can make a lot of profit if they make 100 of phones.. fool the public? yeah right, if you can be fooled by some one else, then you only had yourself to blame.. besides calling a "video call their greatest invention of all time" sounds like a lie don't you think? which one is the conman here really?

samsung has a lot of model of smartphone. apple only has 1 model. samsung pass apple in smartphone shipment because they also have cheaper smartphone. so it is normal if samsung pass apple in shipment. but compare to another company like nokia, lg, motorola, etc, samsung has done a great job.

ALonZo, 05 Nov 2011I agree, Nokia far from have the best OS. They have excelle... moreNokia is just doing the best. Symbian was growing old and it needed an replacement that can kill iOS AND android. So it choose windows phone. It is really smooth. And a unique user interface. I just got bored of the static icons

Nokia is poised to grow in the fourth quater and iphones has already sold 5 million. So samsung will see its market share eaten up.

Mobilemaster, 05 Nov 2011Nokia using the best OS?? Are you kidding me?? :))I agree, Nokia far from have the best OS. They have excellent low to mid range phones, their smartphones are mainly for Nokia enthusiasts who don't wish to switch to another brand.

Samsung make me laugh. So do their obsessive fans. They have about 100 phones out there all ranging from low price to high, of course they're gonna be the highest selling. Apple with 1 new model and 2 older models, are a close 2nd. If Apple had 100 phones then the figures would be that Samsung would be trailing behind by a large margin. But Apple ain't that stupid enough to have so many phones, especially many of them identical to each other, trying to fool the public that 1 is better than the other. Samsung are NOT as good as Apple but the numbers game is their speciality.
Apple IS the superior brand, sales and feedback from millions of happy customers proves that :)

AnonD-1082, 05 Nov 2011Please name any current smartphone OS where the malwares ar... moreWhy don't YOU BUY AN ANDROID and then tell us all what these malwares are? As someone else already stated, you're in every post trying to put the frighteners on people who prefer android. Yes i clicked on the link you put up, and guess what - the link puts you on a report done by Mcafee. I do not trust Mcafee! If it wasn't for the fact that it came preinstalled on my computer, it would never have been on it, i personally think it's expensive rubbish.
And were you praising Nokia WP7? What . . . are you seriously trying to tell everybody that hackers and malware writers won't touch WP7? simply because it's Nokia??? LMAO!!!! You do know that there are other manufacturers that make WP7 phones don't you? Yeah course you know . . . or why not just buy an iphone as you seem certain that they are untouchable?
One thing i know you're blinded to, is that all of the other manufacturers have watched Nokia go from grace to disgrace. Some are moving FORWARD faster than others, but i've yet to see any of them go backwards like Nokia did, thinking that all of their customers are stupid.

Blankman, 05 Nov 2011I'm sorry, but where is the FM Transmitter on my Galaxy S2?... moreagree, a smartphone has to be 'smart', but seriously what purpose a FM transmittor serve to a common user. Once I bought a FM transmittor for my car and home, honestly didn't use it more than 2 occasions.

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL In what standards No... moreI do not think it is fair to compair apple in the race. Apple produces just one brand of phone shape size and price range.
However if you think nokia is under, what and see. They are using the best smartphone OS in the market.

I praise Apple for producing a single device at a time. It a device its users can be proud of. I am not an Apple user but one of Samsung. It is really a disappointment with Samsung because as a user you would like to purchase a smartphone that will be rated the best amongst other brands, but here you get Samsung producing 50 handsets every year (just like the frequency of changing their underwear - just kidding :)) instead of one powerful smartphone. For instance, Samsung Galaxy S2 and in a short space of time the Galaxy Note was due...as a consumer it like you haven't taken a breath before the next best device get rolled out, who knows, i may have preffered the Galaxy Note to the Galaxy S2.

For me, Android is best in terms of usage, Fun and everything
Only one thing in which IOS takes lead is security,
there is no doubt that MAC and IOS are more secure than microsoft and Android. As far as the nokia is concerned, they r only good with less than 50$ phones.
One thing i would like to discuss is about battery usage.
I think android uses more battery, Which is really an issue

Never been a fan of the "Market share" phrase because if you really love phones you would love or at least like all, I think a lot of people are caught up in the money factor and thats bad, where's the love?

to b honest majority of people don't understand which tech is better for example
1screen Amoled or lcd , almost all say Amoled because of its viewing angles deeper blacks vibrant colors low consumption . but lcd especially slcd eg Samsung galaxy r screen is best in market because all Amoled screens have burn in effect s ie your screen will have shadow images. check your screen by viewing white image on whole screen you will see shadow of top bar like in android battery icon etc .this screen burn issue is very very very common in any Amoled but is very very almost impossible in lcd .and super clear lcd of Samsung galaxy r has best color s ie natural colors (not too much vibrant unreal).
for A mobile its better that viewing angles are less as they could be so they anyone around u can't see what u r doing on ur screen.
