I find single phone competing against a bunch of Android phones still impressive.
- ZeroGravitas 15y agoWhich single phone do you refer to? The 3GS, the 4 (GSM), the 4 (CDMA), the 4 (Universal) or the 4S?
- wkaluss 15y agoAll of them. When you put them next to the wide variety of sizes and designs of Android phones, iPhones look pretty similar to each other. It's still one company with a short catalog vs 5 companies with huge catalogs and better deals with networks to push their phones into the hands of people (2x1, free on contract,...). I think its pretty impressive.
- ZeroGravitas 15y agoWell yes in reality there's 5 companies, just like there's about 7 or 8 iPhones, but when you put them all together next to the wide variety of companies that exist they all look kind of similar so I prefer to think of them as just one company. And that one company is outselling Apple in smartphones! It's amazing really.
- mrich 15y agoBetter deals with networks? iPhones are heavily subsidized at the cost of Android devices by the carriers. http://www.appleinsider.com/articles/11/12/15/verizon_soaking_high_end_android_buyers_to_make_up_for_iphone_subsidies.html http://www.appleinsider.com/articles/11/12/15/verizon_soakin...
