  • 85% of mobile device failures occur on Android, with Samsung leading the way

    domino67domino67
    As Android is 85% of the market and iOS is 15%, it would seem that both OS have the same failure rate.

    The S versions usually have a tougher sell due to the lack of external redesign.

    Although I think that part of the issue this year was that the biggest selling feature was 3D Touch which as of yet has proven a bit of a lame duck.

    It's a fantastic phone, I own one. But I can see how strong releases from competitors have been able to put a dent in their lead this year.
    Nope.  Samsung/HTC/Sony/LG has not made a single dent to iPhone sales.  iPhone sales are down for the simple reason that iPhone 6 was a super cycle of pent up demand.

    Notice that Samsung/HTC/Sony/LG have not released unit sales?  Its because they are worse then last year. They are not stealing any sales from Apple.
    I think your blinders are on a bit too tight.

    you've never used their phones and you think it's crap..rightttt....makes sense. huawei sells from the cheaper end to the higher end (phones in the $600+ range)...they just started penetrating the USA market and if you look at the consumer comments about it in amazon, they received very high ratings for phones even in the $200 range. http://www.amazon.com/Honor-5X-Metal-Unlocked-Smartphone/dp/B019O8YWR0/ scroll down to the reviews and weep. Now, if you find a phone that is just as good but sells for $400 less, you'd be stupid to buy the $600 one right? right. note: i have the honor 5x and i love it...very fast fingerprint sensor, SD card, phone management software, and the usual google goodies...and it cost me $$200...that's $400 more i can save or spend somewhere else....
    so why are you wasting time here.

    Go to your Huawei fan board. Oh, I forgot. There isn't such a thing because no one actually likes their products but simply buy it because thats all they can afford.

    Please. Huawei will die on the vine like all other companies that try to compete with the iPhone: Samsung, Xiaomi, Blackberry, HTC, Sony, LG. Next will be Huawei. Another China brand will undercut Huawei prices and drive them to bankruptcy.
    An article on this website from today just pointed out that ios dropped to 15% from 18% marketshare.

    I'm sure all the non-Americans watching this fiasco are laughing their a**es off. 
    Have you seen the rest of the world lately? It's a complete mess, and the majority of world leaders are class-A, clueless morons.

    The opinions of 100% of all non-Americans are completely irrelevant as they have zero say in OUR elections. They can all go and screw themselves. Many countries are in complete collapse, now that is hilarious! We'll see who gets the last laugh. :#
    Unlike the Americans who involve themselves in other countries business?

  • Apple loses influential industrial designer Danny Coster to GoPro

    This is nuts.

    GoPro stock is down 90% the last 12 months.
    The company will probably layoff 80% of its employees within the next year or two.

    Talk about a short term move
    Yeah because AAPL has done so great in the past 5 years.  SMH.

  • Apple Watch shipped 2.2M units in March quarter, but lost marketshare, estimates claim

    Apple raked in $6 BILLION last year from the Apple Watch. This is more than Rolex's $5 BILLION.  So who is the failure again?
    Apple.  Rolex sold far fewer watches and let's be honest the Apple Watch for the foreseeable future has peaked.  The only ones who will buy an Apple Watch first and foremost are obviously iphone users so right there the market is very limited. And secondly and more importantly whoever wanted an Apple Watch more than likely will have one already.  I highly doubt there is any pent up demand for such a purchase.

  • Early reviews peg Samsung's Galaxy S7 as a serious contender for best smartphone

    And how many of these reviewers actually like anything from Apple? As for camera reviews, I'll wait to hear from actual photography websites instead of journalists. Oh wait, I don't really care what Samsung makes, I'll never buy one anyway. What was that article I read recently, millions of Android phones infected with malware.....
    Actual camera websites like dxomark?  They rate the Samsung cameras ahead of Apple.  With regards to this malware, it was a company who is trying to sell a security product.....Big surprise!  If you just use common sense and only download from Google Play store the chances of getting infected are very very very small.   How is that ransomware for Macs?

  • A look inside Apple ahead of its Q2 2016 earnings report

    I would not be surprised to see the stock below $100 this week.

    I would not be surprised to see the stock testing $92 this summer.

    There is even a chance this thing goes to the $80's.

    No big deal. Just another opportunity for those who have cash lying around to load up on shares.
    And if you already own shares and can't buy any more the stock tanking is good news. Because even if YOU can't buy shares you know darn well Apple will be buying shares and that means your shares will own a bigger chunk of the company.

    My point is relax. Let Wall Street idiots continue to rise and fall like a bunch of cheap tricks. All I know is Apple has a great chance of out performing the broad market in the next 10 years. I fully expect the stock to reach $300-$400 in the next 10 years. 

    You think $300 is ridiculous?  I don't think it is. Even if Apple's profits decline 5% each year for the next 10 years they would still generate about $425 billion in profits. That would give them enough cash to buy 70-%80% of the company shares. That means even if Apple has the same PE ration as now it would be worth 300%-400% more.


    Dream much?  For Apple to buy more stock means it HAS to borrow more money.  Did you forget the cash hoard overseas collecting dust? I think $134 was peak for the stock.  Smartphones have peaked and Apple has virtually all its profits come from phones.
