Throughout yesterday, Samsung presented the net returns for the first fiscal quarter of this year 2015 with bad news (if we can understand by bad earning billions of euros). Samsung Electronics reported a profitability of about $ 4.350 billion. However, this represents a 39% drop in net profit for the same year in the previous year, and it seems that the drop in their numbers is due to the success of the iPhone 6.
It is more than evident that the iPhone 6 is a phone that has done a lot of damage to companies that have high-end phones on Android, the reason is very simple, the size of the screen. There were a considerable number of users whose only excuse for not trying the apple system was the size of the screen, which the Android flagships were dedicated to offering with quite considerable sizes and resolutions beyond the limit of useful logic. But then the iPhone 6 arrived, with its 4,7 inches, ready to reach the palm of the hand of the most demanding with the size.
Although, at least in my opinion, the Android migrators have arrived at the worst possible moment (or almost), iOS is not even the shadow of what it represented, a polished system without failures. Although, now it presents a series of functions and characteristics that were only possible previously if we had Jailbreak and that have been implemented since iOS 7 beyond the change of colors in the graphical interface. Apple promises a system in the purest iOS 6 style in terms of performance for iOS 9, and without a doubt, those who have not just arrived are what we expect.
The iPhone 6 is not only a sales success, but also a scourge to rivals, especially those that offer high-end phones, which are the ones who are being affected by the huge sales of it, since they are monopolizing only and exclusively that audience. It would be absurd to say that the iPhone 6 may be taking market share from the low-end Microsoft Lumia for example.
Despite these latest financial reports, Samsung has a lot of faith in the "bluish" (catch the irony) edge of the Samsung Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge displays, and expects to improve these numbers considerably next quarter. Although we do not forget, who maintains the stability of the company is being, said by themselves, is the increase in the sale of mid-range phones, more specifically the Galaxy A Series.
Analysts believe that Samsung sold a total of 83,2 million smartphones in the first quarter, while Apple sold 61,2 million. In general numbers we would be fooled by the Samsung figures, But we must bear in mind that they have a very wide range of terminals, from the lowest range, as happened with the Galaxy Ace in its day that was sold like hotcakes and that offered a user experience worthy of a Symbian, even the highest range within the Galaxy S and Note that work better or worse, they are the quintessential vessel of Android phones.
As we just said, the high number of sales that Samsung has left allows it to regain the title of the largest smartphone maker, however, many of those sales represent moderately priced phones and not flagship devices, losing profits a lot. year more. So why not say it, the iPhone 6 and its screen augmentation has been a huge blow to Samsung, competing for the first time in screen size between the iPhone and the Galaxy.
Without a doubt, the demand for the Galaxy S6 Edge has been high, but after observing the bluish problems of its screens and the stock limit I would not be as optimistic as the gentlemen of Samsung.
bluish? what does that refer to? : l
One thing I don't understand, is that the S6 just came out and they are already saying that the iPhone sells more and I don't know what? Damn what ways to look for controversy, it is clear that the iPhone 6 has better performance for the iOS ... but for me in hardware the iPhone 6 is not right, the camera for me of the iPhone 6 is very shabby compared to the Z3 S6 or HTC M9 ….. Light years
Most people buy iphone by brand and have no idea what Apple brand is about. just buy because apple is Cool !! Anyone who buys an android only buys it because they just like the model.
I honestly never get carried away by what a brand sells or not, I always choose what I like the most, whatever the brand is.
I have had all the iPhone except the 6, from the first to the 5S, and I will wait with the 5S until Apple makes a good iPhone, because the 6 for me personally is not what it should be, if not, wait for the 6S you will see how It will be sooooo much better ...
write my essay
Alba, suck it on me 😉
She has at least commented something productive and explaining her reasons, something that is difficult to see in the comments on this website. Maybe you should go out there to find something to suck too, so you entertain yourself with something and leave the absurd comments.
Alba, do you know who makes the IPHONE ...? Whose camera is it? Whose processor is it? Whose materials are they? In a little more screens of the new iPhones, who will it be? I have bought the IPHONE 6 because I feel like it not because it is cool, with a giga and two cores I have more than enough for what I need, asphalt 8, modern combat 5 etc, I do not need 8 cores that I understand that it improves The graphics and nothing gets hot, but let's think Samsung has taken out the glass mobile and the edge with curved screen that the truth is I don't know what function has hahahaha to put the applications and have to slide to remove them I prefer to have them on the screen, when Apple Take out the IPHONE 7 or 8 or whenever you want to take it out, I hope you take it out of glass like the IPHONE 4 \ 4s and curved screen, greetings to all!
It seems to me that Alba's comment is more than correct. He has not said at any time that the components of the iPhone are manufactured by Apple itself, nor that EVERYONE who buys iPhone do so because it is fashion (so I do not understand why you have been offended), but it is more than clear that more than half of the people do it for that. I doubt that absolutely all the people (in fact, I would put their hand in the fire saying that more than half of the people) who choose an iPhone to an Android or WP device is only because of the brand, because it is known and is spread by all the world. The average user of a mobile phone does not usually even find out about the technical specifications of the terminal he wants to buy, he only looks for one that he considers appropriate in his economy (without being prehistoric).
You can bring out the most beautiful android phone not equal to Apple !!
Rest assured, Samsung will never be apple.
Uncle Apple will always be superior to Samsung
Alba, go watch TV that they play a cowboy hahaha, innocent
It was to be expected I ❤️ APPLE
What an imagination of Samsung designers!
The imagination is held by the designers of the 6 Plus, often a shoe, it is almost not a Tablet.
And that is why they have released 2 models of iPhone 6 for those who do not like such a large one ... so I do not see the problem anywhere.
The fluidity and stability of iOS 6 are missed.
Well, I have an iPhone 6 plus, and I already miss the freedom of Android
Wait for the jailbreak ……
I think there are many here who do not understand that Samsung is not the developer of Android. The components of an Android phone are not manufactured by Google. Wake up from that dream. Andrid is GOOGLE's operating system. And Samsung carries the google operating system on its smartphone's. Therefore that stupid argument, that the components of the iPhone are not Apple, is not valid to be emphasizing it. All smartphones have components from different companies. Today, no one has a mobile device, Laptop or Desktop that their parts are from the same company. WAKE UP!
And still copying the model of the iphone 6
When I saw the rounded edges of the iPhone 6, I realized that they were a cheeky copy of the Samsung Ativ S from 2012.
Who copies who?
They are all copied together, it makes no sense to debate 'who has it bigger. And whoever does is a fanatic and should make them watch it.
It is obvious that the iPhone 6 is the best of the best and not even cheap copies like the S6 get even a pokito hahahaha
The truth is that android lollipop is much better than ios ... I like the Iphone 6 ... But ... I have a Nexus 5 that is great ... I'll wait to see what happens this year with the new Iphone 6S or 7.
Some would use it well to see more things with a little objectivity, it is not good to be such a fan of a brand, which like all is far from perfect. You have to be objective, no manufacturer has screens that come close to the super amoled ones, that do not stop giving lessons model after model (including the iPhone), or that the camera is better than that of the g4, which is leaving the rest in evidence of manufacturers with its focal length of 1.8 (including the iphone 6 plus). Lollipop has evolved so much Android that there is no longer lag even in the moto e. Each thing has its advantages that everyone must value, on Android it is its huge community in Spanish of HTC mania and xda worldwide, please do not go to me to recommend the jailbreak with the freedom of Android because it is totally ridiculous, and if you think That is, you do not know what Android is nor have you bothered to know its potential; in ios it is the ease of use, I can't think of more, and one of the excuse that Android is wrong is no longer valid ...
Conclusion that I'm going around the bush hehe, you have to know how to see what things are beyond the block, which are many and for my best (personal opinion), and the article does not enjoy any objectivity, especially the comments.
They make me laugh tell me what comes out if you copy a htc one m8 and galaxy note mmmm of course an iphone note6 these reports are from before the galaxy s6 edge went on sale and in case you don't know apple is going to take out an iphone with a screen on the sides and What are they going to say of course Apple invented it and I will see them sooner a talker falls than a lame person and as for the screen according to the matte display that I doubt they know what it is, it ensures that the screen of the galaxy s6 edge is the best no matter how much ask they stop dreaming the edge is faster better camera in todk is better accept it losers know how to lose
The damage to Samsung is done by the rest of the Android companies, much more now that Chinese companies are emerging at very good prices, keep enjoying the apple that is the only thing you are able to see.
Totally agree Fran, Samsung and company are screwed by the monster that is approaching, and it's called xiaomi, not Apple for God's sake hahaha.
Many here defend I do not know that totally idealized stability, I have a friend with the iPhone 6 and my g2 with 12 cm have nothing to envy the fluidity of the iPhone.
It is said that ios has lost fluidity, that happens when they have a simple so and you want to make it look like Android in functionality, you screw it up, if you don't look at how Apple has introduced SwiftKey (popular keyboard in android), a keyboard much superior to the one iPhone, they can't get it to go without errors ...
You cannot compare a brand with the IPhone, because IOS is exclusive to them, instead android is an infinite universe with thousands of possibilities and variants, it has different brands and models with budgets for each user of all and with what each one needs On the other hand, Apple only gives you a few options in price and design.
Every once in a while I see this page and laugh at the comments from Apple fanboy hahahaha ...
Well I think that most of the time the iPhone has surpassed android, but looking at some comments I see that each person has a different thought regarding apple, I personally have had a good experience with the iPhone 6, but there is something What is missing to be great. If steve jobs had not died, everything would be different. For some Apple is something to identify with (I am like that) working at Apple has been great. For others it is just a brand and having money. Let's remember one thing Samsung Nor is it that it is bad at all, something positive to have in everything. Living on the iPhone I hope there is something more creative and intuitive as in the beginning. Greetings to all.
Let's see when Apple brings out a TV haha because we don't know how to do anything other than mobile phones and laptops. And make a camera worthy of its price (IPhone 6, iPhone 6 plus)
So every madman with his madness
Samsung gives 100 kicks to Phone better water resistance porvo and bumps there is God how many people confused do I feel sorry? This world… .there are always people confused and sad
In the end it depends on each user, if you want to use IOS you have no choice but to use the IPhone, but if you opt for android you will have a variety that apple cannot offer you, for me android is much better because of the versatility it has, both in software , hardware, design and prices. You can buy a high-end without having to sell an organ.
I have had both and choose sansung. You can do everything without so much protocol and impediments. Movies, songs, games, reading, you can download and do whatever you want… with the iPhone you can only do what they allow you to do. And it seems to me it's almost nothing…
A page dedicated to apple and that they use the word samsung (not exactly right) I don't know why it doesn't surprise me.
I bought the Iphone 6S plus and I am amazed at how limited the operating system is. Everything requires many steps. It cannot be customized. I was one of those who bought it because of the brand and because I went to aplle and everything seemed nice to me. Android is honestly more educational and just as fast as ios. Vote for Android
