Here’s a pictorial guide...

Even the most dedicated iPhone / Apple fanatic can’t deny their eyes. The

SAMSUNG OVERTAKES APPLE AS WORLD'S MOST PROFITABLE PHONE MAKER
#Samsung #Apple #SamsungvsApple #ApplevsSamsung #iPhone #GalaxyS4 #GalaxyS4Zoom
Good evening / early morning, Synapse Circuit Readers! I find it so funny that
certain tech revelations are contradicting practically 98% of Apple’s recent
WWDC...
TAKE THAT! Samsung
has surpassed Apple as the most profitable handset maker in the world. But this
is not surprising to me at all. This revelation should not come as a surprise
to you too! To be fair Apple has only the one model, the iPhone (5). On the
other hand Samsung has a multitude of handsets for different markets around the
world – some of which you may never have heard of unless you take a keen
interest in mobile technology!
Very, very sadly for Apple and its hardcore fan base, Cook did not drop the
idiotic lawsuits as he said he would... Did he say he would? Or did he indicate
that he would? Whatever! Cook just wasted valuable time pursuing a vendetta
left by Jobs. You know this already! Nuff said!
TECH VULTURE
I have said it once... A thousand times... And I say it again: Apple does not
innovate. Apple reinvents. There’s nothing wrong with reinventing concepts that
didn't quite make the grade the first time around like the Tablet PC by
Microsoft, but technological advancement is not a vulture waiting for a carcass
to pick clean. That’s not a good survival strategy in Silicon Valley! As you
can see, the ‘Vulture Strategy’ hasn't worked for Apple at all!
Samsung, on the other hand, have worked hard on building a reputation as
technological innovators. The Note is one of the best things that happened to
the mobile industry and the Galaxy S concept just kept making great leaps! The
Galaxy Beam is another milestone and has potential for development; imagine a
projector on the Galaxy Note 3, Galaxy Tab and so on. There’s scope!
Just look at the Galaxy S4 Zoom as a great example of innovation; it sold out
upon release in London. I want one! I can't say that I have heard of the iPhone
selling out like that. The difference between Apple and Samsung is that Apple
feels the need to create a circus-like buzz surrounding the sales of an updated
handset (plus iPad and iPod) whereas Samsung’s successes go quietly in the
background. I do also believe that Apple does tricks like limiting the amount
of handsets upon first release to create a sense of demand.
Another aspect of Samsung’s enduring success is that their premium handsets
remain at the top of the chain because of the strong specifications that keeps
them relevant today! The Samsung Galaxy S2 still sells even now and each day I
am seeing more people with them! Now the Galaxy S3 has come down to £17 a month
on rental and it’s still a phenomenal phone! We're in financially hard times
and the S3 makes for a great purchase at £17 a month! So, the S3 mini must have
come down significantly too! At £13 per month the S3 mini is a fantastic deal!
I wish I could replace my HTC Desire with it! But there again, for £4 more I
have the ability to record full HD with the 8MP camera compared to the 5MP
camera in the S3 mini.
Apple doesn't yet have a mini iPhone and the 4S isn't as strong as the S2 or
S3. Rumour has it that Apple is going to use the iPhone 4S for the budget
handset that is said to be due later this year and therefore the iPhone 4S will
be taken off the market. Apple is going to have to come up with a better
strategy to stay in the game! Let’s not forget that there are other strong
contenders in the handset game namely LG, Asus are looking to throw in their
hat and a few Chinese manufacturers with a hunger to make a big impact on the
market. To say that Apple has its work cut out for them is an understatement. And
how can I forget the imminent launch of the Google Motorola Moto X? I don't see
how Apple can come back with their current offerings; the iPhone 6 has to be
radical!
AND THAT!
Recently Apple has been dealt another blow: US Patent and Trademark Office
(USPTO) has thrashed Apple’s claim to the “pinch to zoom” patent. The patent is
one used by Apple in a lawsuit against Samsung last year and such a loss at
this stage in the Tech War could mean a huge loss for Apple. Can you imagine that?
Apple are essentially looking to pick from Samsung’s success rather than to
invent. It’s crazy!
The lawsuits haven't done Apple any favours at all, they look weak and petty.
People say that I am too harsh when I say that Apple thinks that innovation is
the opening of another shop somewhere in the world. “That’s amazing...” Hmmm,
not really... “That’s fantastic...” Er, no... You're just selling the iPhone,
iPad and a few Macbooks, so what? I reckon a Samsung shop would be a far more
interesting experience because they have a vast amount of devices from Android
to Windows and not forgetting that they do cameras, camcorders, TVs, etc. I am going
to visit a Samsung store in London’s Stratford where the Olympics was held this
weekend. I am certain that it’s going to blow me away!
What do you reckon?
Take good care!
