Apple has always made the best handset in its class...after all, no one else makes a better midrange handset and markets it so well. The secret is aesthetics and nothing else, comparison of the technology shows that the iPhone is consistently 1-2 years behind the flagship handsets of Samsung and HTC. However, Samsung and HTC chose to use the latest technology over the superior build quality of the less technologically advanced Apple iPhone.

            Thumbs up to Steve Jobs for what he did to Apple and thumbs down to Tim Cook for what he is trying to ruin Apple.

                SAMSUNG SUCKS, 09 Sep 2012All Samsung does is copy Apple and Apple should have never ... moreThe soul of the hardware is the software, which is Andriod, which is from Google.

                Apple for what it is today was because of Steve. It's no coincident that Apple losing sale after Steve is gone, but I guess pointing finger instead is a better business solution to keep the board happy

                  Apple invents nothing but acquired others and claimed to be theirs. Wow, this is so called innovation.
                  Apple is the axis of evil :(

                    Anonymous, 09 Sep 2012samsungs so stupid. they never think about getting caught. ... moreIs the same thing, apple thought they can never be caught by stealing other people invention as they can patent it first in the States. And just like wall street money laundering people thought they'll never be caught at the end they've been caught.

                    The funniest part, One smart ass once said some countries are, "the centre of all evil". Those words seem like back firing on US now...

                      Let me remind you that Apple products are useless and old fashion, have any of what BlackBerry is going through right now?

                      Well BlackBerry's crysis is due to their lack of innovation and I'm afraid this is going to happen as well to Apple in a couple of years.

                      So stop making senseless comments if you haven't tested any other devices rather that the old fashion iPhone.

                      Take a look at this Article:

                      http://blog.gsmarena.com/android-activations-reach-1-3-million-per-day-total-activations-reach-480-million/

                      As you can see Android devices will take the lead as they are the future and there is nothing Apple can do about it, not even their "Lawsuits" will help them.

                      So you Applefanboys learn to recognize that there thousands of companies which products are way much advanced and superior than Apple's.

                      Thanks for the Article GSMARENA!

                        The ironic part in all this is a quote from Steve Jobs “Good artists copy, great artists steal” and then he continues, “We have always been shameless about stealing great ideas.”

                            samsung does have little influences of APPLE in their products and since they manufacture apples chips in largescale they mite have got their own ideas in developing a powerful processor chip and some UI cues from apple thatdosent mean they are completely relyng on apple, APPLE filed case coz50 percent people in US itself are turning to android and in that a huge percentage is due to samsung which obviously is cheaper yet powerful but not as refined as apple still gives android flexibility in cheap price, just like how HYUNDAi is beating GM,FORD,VW etc in sales volume

                                      I liked apple when they were bankrupt 10yrs ago. Things always go in cycles. Considering their suing everybody, nobody is gonna want to do business with them in the future. Really they still can't make it a phone on their own.
