> Why is apple the only company with this problem? It’s the only one people care about enough. Apple gets a major "scandal" almost each year about something that affects every single smartphone company on the planet. Think of the antenna-gate or the bending issues. Lots of non-Apple phones have shown these issues, and the random shutdowns are no exception [1].

That's natural since iPhones are being touted as the premium option while putting down Androids as "cheap" phones. It's all about expectations.

  Others may tout Android phones as “cheap”, but does Apple? I don’t actually recall Apple doing any negative marketing against Android.

    Are you kidding me? How many WWDC and product introductions have you attended?

      I’ve never been to WWDC. I watched the most recent iPhone announcement and I don’t specifically remember any negative commentary against Android. Hence my comment and my question.
