@Zulucker: There is Google Chrome on iPhone too and you can use unlimited tabs! The different isn't that huge in the specs, I mean, it's not like you play really heavy games on your phone or any hard work. The apps on App Store is safer to use also..

@Sjoooberg: Yes, better specs, can do more things, works faster, actually has customization. although iPhone has better apps, since it is iOS a lot of apps (not from app store) don't work, androids have better compatibility with programs you can just download off the internet, you can use google chrome and stuff like that on your android.

@Zulucker: What do you mean with better? Do you mean the specs?

@Sjoooberg: Yes, i know exactly what you mean, iPhone just gives you that feeling of a perfect phone, while there are so many androids and there's just no "feeling" in them. I actually thought about it exactly like you did, but there are androids better than an iPhone, although iPhone's still have a few pros over androids.

@Zulucker: I'm trying to figure out something clever to write here, but it will look so cheesy no matter how I try to explain it..

People have different tastes,that's just the way it is. I chose iPhone because I like the design of it, and because I really like iOS's simplicity. Android seems to be so messy, that's why I want it. The iPhone is a piece of a great design, while Android is just another phone. That's what I think.

@Sjoooberg: But you can get something [b]better[/b] for a [b]cheaper[/b] price.

Of course it would work, then it wouldn't sell at all. Being user-friendly is probably the biggest reason people like iPhone over androids. Looking nice is probably the other reason people buy iPhone, so a lot of people just buy iPhones to look cool infront of their friends.

I like Samsung as a company more, but I like Apple's phones.

@Zulucker: No, because the stuff works and they are user friendly + they look nice.

[quote=opmeTK]that's why apple is one of the richest companies, right? they may suck, but then explain how millions of people have more than 2 apple devices in their homes?[/quote]

It's because people fall for advertisements too easily, they can get something better for a cheaper price too.

Patents are so flawed.

Samsung is obviously going to appeal. We will just have to see what happens.

And the things they are sueing for is soo stupid. It's not like Apple has not "stolen" things before.

[quote=opmeTK]Yes, but if it sucked, not nearly as many people would own such products?[/quote]
[b]NOT SAYING APPLE SUCKS.[/b]
It could be just a trend. It's "cool" to have a apple product. It doesn't matter it is good or not. It could be crappy but expensive and people will buy it so they can show it to their peers to be "cool". People think the more expensive it is..the more better and "cool" it is.

"Some of Apple's claims are legit, but some of the stuff they patented probably shouldn't be patentable in the first place."
