I love my S4, which is 2 years old, and will regret trading it in as it does everything I want, and more than I see on Apple products which are just coming out now!

The Samsung S4 was the first phone with a MEMS hygrometer, a fact that most people do not know.

Apple will get you laid faster than an android. Starbucks the same over nescafe. It’s just, just, cooler!

the win?

It’s all over when Apple takes the lead and Samsung might as well close shop? Sort of like when leftists pass a law or win in court and it’s “settled law”?

Not really. I love my iPhone but I have a gs5 right now also. I see them side by side each day. Apple wins or I would get rid of it. My overall experience is I’ve gotten better utility from the Apple. Someone else might tell you different but between the two I know what I like better.

I’ll get a gs6 in a year or so all the same.

How is the Apple product superior? Please point it out to me.

It has that cool logo.

That's how.

Samsung spends a ton on “advertising”. they are the biggest advertisers on Earth.

I’m not sure they don’t just employ a bunch of South Koreans to do guerrilla marketing to keep unemployment low.

Samsung is about 20% of South Korea’s economy/ GDP

For those with the Galaxy S4, an app which takes advantage of the built-in hygrometer:

Well your prediction turned out to be wrong. None of the “Apple fanboys” came here to talk trash. They are respectful of the competition and understand that there are some decent non-Apple products out there.

I am always being chased forward by the relentless hardware recycling frontier. Advertizing has nothing to do with me besides driving the likelihood of my at some time obtaining one of their just about totally obsolete pieces of hardware.

Maybe you know whether Apple or Samsung has higher advertizing expenses per unit of sold hardware?

Or, they could not answer my question posted earlier when I asked for anything specific in the spec sheet showing even ONE THING in which the Apple 6 is superior to the Samsung Galaxy S6.

Apple’s products are inferior and many people buy them simply because there is a notion that the “cool” people use them. They are behind technology-wise (Apples chip uses 2 cores; Samsung has 8), and yet charge more, thus the large profits.

God help Apple if the masses ever discover this fact.

See, you couldn't resist bashing Apple, even in a Samsung thread!

Yet the Apple people come here and show respect for a worthy competitor.

Saying that their (Apple’s) technology is inferior, an objective fact proven by looking at the specs sheets side by side, is not “bashing” Apple; it is merely stating the facts. Apple makes a good product, they just make a product far inferior to Samsung IMO.
