Honestly, a company that doesn't innovate, doesn't treat its talent right, and is run by suits who mass produce junk. Don't expect them to have any taste what so ever.

>Honestly, a company that doesn't innovate Go flame elsewhere, troll. I bet even the displays of your LCD/LED Tv's in the hall and your laptop were made by this very same company. And they're perhaps one of the most innovative companies in the world when it comes to displays. And not just displays - Memory, SSD's, Processors (which even Apple uses)..etc. Atleast, they exercise true innovation - Genuinely inventing something, instead of just patenting rounded corners and suing people for it.

  Well that is what you get for going against the hivemind of hacker news. Sometimes we just need to sit back and let a few people have their bit of drama.

  Yeah, all Apple ever made was rounded corners.

How do they not innovate? They make the best ssd on the market(840 pro) -their regular 840's are the first commercial ssds to use tlc nand - and some of the best display panels in the business. Apple uses displays made by samsung, and processors made by samsung, as well as ram made by samsung in their phones.

  Samsung does commodity microelectronics manufacturing. I don't know of any technology that Samsung can uniquely provide. Apple can switch manufacturers in a heart beat. Do you think that Foxconn does Apple's design innovation?

    Can you name a technology that anyone can uniquely provide? Just because they aren't the only ones doing it doesn't mean they aren't innovating. They're the best at certain things for a reason(because they're innovating). Apple can't switch in a heartbeat, or they would have already.
