  • Apple rival Samsung posts high Q2 profits on rebounding phone division

    k2kwk2kw
    Samsung 'buys' conpinents from one of its own divisions to manufacture phones. That means if it gets a great 'bargain' on components, the phone division will be more profitable and the components division will be less profitable. Now, I'm sure that Samsung execs are too ethical to manipulate its earnings report, but this week's news has reported that profits from Samsung's components division are weaker than expected, while earnings from phones have been stronger than expected.
    Their component division is down because the make some of the A series chips for Apple. 

    The S7 is a beautiful design.  The iPhone 6/6s is Meh.  The iPhone six sold big numbers because of the screen size increase despite a lame design.

    Thats why Samsung is up and apple is struggling.

    This keynote lead me to believe that getting the Echo is better for Home automation control.   Expected more after DED's article last week on WWDC and Siri.   kinda disappointed.   things seemed evolutionary not revolutionary.    SIRI understands me only 1/3 the time-same old frustration on macOS as on the phone. huh.

    This is just another sign of why project Titan will wreck Apple .   Cook should be canned.
