          Apple: $374,90 Billion
          Samsung: $136,90 Billion

          Revenue:
          Apple: $108.249 billion
          Samsung: $247.5 billion

          Net Income:
          Apple: $25.9 billion
          Samsung: $18.3 billion



          Inspite of a low revenue Apple has a way high Market Capital and Net Income than Samsung.
          It is also known that Samsungs 10% revenue is generated from Apple.

          So dear dave. You must have understood till now that if Samsung stops making parts for Apple, who'll be a BIG LOSER.

How much do you know about South Korean society and politics? Please do some more research before making comments like this. Also, if it's government supported, it should be big in that country only, not in other countries.

                  "And copy other technologie and change a bit than patent the copy product." Are you referring to Apple?

How good your product actually appears to be secondary. What matters the most appears to be how well your product is "perceived", or marketed. Business world is not school where you are objectively graded on the same set of exams and just studying hard is never enough... Companies like LG and HTC still don't seem to get it... Samsung appear to have finally woke up watching Apple doing it well for so long...

                            Adomas, 16 Jul 2012This company is becoming too much agressive. I dont like that. If you think Samsung is aggressive, look at Apple.

                                    Second, their HD TV are cheap and crap like hell!!!
                                    And their android phone are just hyped.
                                    IOS device is from Apple, if Apple pull out Samsung than Samsung will be in big troubles and i hope that Apple pull the plug out Samsung.

                                      this is a lesson to lg. just because you are first in coming out with certain features it does not mean people will come in droves to buy your product.

                                        In Q2 2008, Nokia market share was :

                                        China 72%
                                        India 77%
                                        Middle East 86%
                                        USA 33%
                                        Europe 91%
                                        South America 66%
                                        Finland 98.7 %

                                        That was the history of giant phone manufacturer .. I wish I could see Nokia in the top again.
