Attack of Samsung gadget spam

[Duane 3NE 2NR]

so essentially issa battle over nomenclature that going on here? cus we cyar be tingin up over devices that share part of a name yet serve different purposes

you mean like the Galaxy S4 Zoom and the Galaxy Camera?

They took the same camera, added a phone but gave it a lower quality screen and slower processor and called it something else

And what the prices were like?

about US$100 difference; the Galaxy Camera is ~US$350 and the S4 Zoom is ~US$450

Amusing thread I must say.....

Amusing thread I must say.....

yes, rather.

It's only a matter of time before Samsung have a site like dell

Build your galaxy

You can already do this with the Moto X. I dont see whats wrong with giving customers more choice

Amusing thread I must say.....

yes, rather.

I can understand arguments from both sides. I'm kinda neutral. I like iphone. It was a groundbreaking device back then. But like in every industry, things eventually become standard and more widespread.

To each his own. And I do agree Samsung lil overkill the Galaxy line. Headache to compare specs to choose one. There are sooo many. Been there. But I won't "hate" on them for that. So be it.

Some like Samsung, some like Apple. Both making great devices.

2 things raised my interest recently. Apple to make iphones with larger screens. And Samsung to launch a new line of phones with "premium" materials(although I think this will cause them to eliminate the removable back cover/battery option). Both will satisfy customer grudges.

Good times ahead either way. This GS4 gotta rally me for at least 3 years though :geek:

customers seem to love it?
How are Moto X sales doing?

Nasdaq reports 100,000 Moto X are selling each week since it launched. Samsung S4 sold 2.5 million in its first week and iPhone 5 sold 5 million in its first weekend.

interesting but i personally like it. you can make your phone truly yours. i wont buy one though but its a nice idea.

well then that's what's wrong with it: It costs considerably more to offer choice but it's bad business to have high operating cost and low sales figures. It is not sustainable.

sigh i guess it doesn't pay to be a fanboy. right now I'm on Xperia and loving it!

Is a Mitsubishi Lancer GL the same as a Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution IV? That's the logic being put forward in this thread.

It's just fanboys hating on variety because deep down inside they wish they had a choice too.

if that was true then sales for iPhones and iPads wouldn't be so high

Hello Moto!

Motorola Droid 5 will have wireless charging. Motorola will always be my 1st choice.

[ismithx]

sigh i guess it doesn't pay to be a fanboy. right now I'm on Xperia and loving it!

what is unique to Xperia that you love? Give us a list:

1. the design feels like a solid piece of tech. build close to nokia level.
2. Sony's android skin is almost stock yet it allows you a good amount of customization.
3. the hardware specs list for a budget phone like this is impressive (USB OTG, MHL, NFC, Snapdragon processor, 1GB ram)
4. the amount of preloaded softwares... is impressive.

you need to buy one for yourself.

[pioneer]

So wait, "customization" makes a phone good?

Lol kk

We already established that sales figures don't mean much.Yet you ride a number built by idiots to prove a point.

Thas like saying beats are flawless because of the sales figues.

nothing there is really unique to that phone though

I have a Nexus S that I bought brand new from Google for US$199 and that a Snapdragon quad core with 2GB RAM. Nexus devices get the latest Android updates as soon as they come out. Running 4.3.3 since I got the phone August.

have you used the MHL or the NFC on your Xperia yet?

Any "smartphones" can run a finite element analysis?

if beats can keep those figures up for 6 years on a single product line then yes! And get people to line up to buy their new product and sell 9 million units in 3 days 6 years after launch. Beats hasn't done that. Please don't confuse growing sales figures, happy customers and strong user base with marketing trickery mixed with thievery and a celebrity.

nope I don't even have a sim card in the Nexus 4. I bought it to test Jelly Bean when developing for the TriniTuner Mobile App for Android. I was using a Nexus S to do that before.

We already went through this unno. 30% hipsters, 20% old people who want a simple phone, 30% teenagers who buy it just to be part of the crowd and 20% Duanes. that 20% does not include the fanboy part of you eh. I talking about full functionality people.

if one product can appeal to such a large and diverse market over and over again for years and sell 9 million units in 3 days on its latest model update then it clearly is spectacular!

[Sky]

Oh jesus. Social appeal means nothing for credit.
The teens and hipsters buy it for the same reason they buy beats.
And same crap on android side. Geeks buy it to say they 1337 and hardly touch the settings.

[Duane 3NE 2NR]

^ what are you really attempting to say?

sales means nothing
figures means nothing
fans mean nothing
loyal users means nothing
consistency over 6 years for one product means nothing
usability means nothing
eco system means nothing
brand equity means nothing
...

so then what do you think really matters?
Blackberry?

[pioneer]

LMAO  

[Duane 3NE 2NR]

BTW Sky

BOOM!

Apple now most valuable brand, worth estimated at $98.3 billion
