Hat's off to you Sammy!
Hopefully others Android OEM will do better or it's not good for the industry when the power is so concentrated in a single company.

come to utah bro its the same here, all the women running around with their stupid pink badazzled fuzzy cases of their iphone 5's! ugh its frustrating trying to explain to people the awesomeness of the galaxy line. i have a gs3 and i am so glad i stopped owning moto DROID devices!

Im not just talking about women. I'm tallking about EVERYBODY! You go to the mall... Iphone, you go to the movies... Iphone. You go to work... Iphone. You go to college/school/university... Iphone. I have an iphone myself and im not going to lie i like it but it does gets annoying where everywhere you go everyone has the same phone as you.

Oh no i understand that its insane for everybody to have the exact same user friendly smartphone but 75% of all females that own any form of a cellphone in America own an iPhone!
I actually talked to this one couple that were both teachers at the local state college and when i started mentioning what an Android device could do, they just stared at me as if i spoke Chinese. BTW they owned iPhone 5's that they proudly admitted to spending $1,000 a peice that day they came out so it was my turn to look at them like they were retarded.

with android inside the Lumias, Nokia would have made good money.

with their offline maps for free I would immediately buy that but Nokia sues HTC now so will never buy any Nokia product again.

This is really cool. The Koreans are always associated with exponential growth. This is a miracle all over again for them.

nobody can stay on top for ever, just take Apple for instance. i'm not saying that Samsung will fall in the forseen future but just saying

Your right but if Samsung can dominate in the windows phone 8 market; they will be more successful and if windows phone OS takes off Samsung will make a killing.

The Asians always persevere and try to stay in front. Western companies like Apple, RIM, Nokia tend to get too comfortable in their position and slacks off

Any Android device as long as they keep on innovating new features, improve more battery life and more for plugin and play in overall versatility. I'm sure Android community will grow. Unlike iDevice, look at them! any iDevice since its first device was introduced compare with its latest iDevice. Nada!

I worry about HTC. I'm sure Motorola will do better in the next few years but HTC has been struggling for awhile. Hopefully the DNA is a success.

DNA would have been highly successful but for the battery and the lack of SD card (or higher internal memory)

Would have been? It's not even out yet. There is absolutely no way to know how well it will do. And by success, i meant help to bring them back. I doubt it will sell as many as the S3 or even the Note 2 but it should still sell well enough to help keep HTC in the game.

Samsung seems biggest winner of market share and Nokia is loosing share again...may be they are thinking of lets do a android phone too :)

Thats what happens when you listen to you'r customers... "Listen"
Give us what we need.

I'd like to see a Lumia with jellybean. I can't seem to imagine why Nokia can't produce phones on different platforms as Samsung did.

Yea the next thing Samsung needs to improve on is build quality; they should make GS4's build quality something else other than plastic.
23. rusticguy posted on 15 Nov 2012, 18:55 0 0
With flexible screen touted as next big thing, i think plastic will rule for quite sometime to come ... :)

they don't listen to the customers it is all marketing. They have tons of money to go towards it. They are slow as hell in update. The only line they update to ics is the not and their S2 line. I smear Samsung fanboy are the worst now.

This is what happens when clients are given what they want and not the other way round. Of course innovation also played a role. Some spoilt brat wanted this slowed down through court cases but guess it's too late on that now.
