I think the argument is that Big tech is strangling itself with monopolies, which stifle innovation and leave the US behind. It's already behind in phones, payments, de-fi, some social media, IoT etc, and arguably the monopolies are to blame. E.g. where is the advertising innovation? it's as if the industry is dead. The iphone has not been the best-tech phone for a long time.
- treis 6y agoI don't know how you can look at phones and conclude that the US is behind. They make the only two OS that matter and Apple is #1 in mobile chip and phone design.
- cblconfederate 6y agoApart from the OS, the phones from samsung, xiaomi and huawei are pretty great with regards to speed, cameras, screens. Apple d overall package gets high mark but thats often due to the OS, not the phone tech. Also consider that mainstream androids are significantly cheaper. I wont go into further comparisons, but just check out the p30 camera

- scarface74 6y agoThe iPhone is not the best tech in what objective measure? Their processors are two or three years ahead of anything Android has. The $399 iPhone SE is faster than any Android at any price.
