Apple Sold……
Samsung Shipped…..

How many are sitting in warehouses waiting a BOGO sale is anyones guess.

However, Apple has 70+% of the PROFIT in world wide smart phone sales.

Isn’t the goal to make money, not just noisy commercials. ?????

Just a thought.

There’s too much innovation and competition coming from Andriod powered phones and the S4 about to be announced soon won’t be good news for Apple. Apple needs to do some very innovative things with the iPhone 6 if they want to stay in the top position.

Googles revenues (with help from Motorola unit): $11.3 Billion

In summary, Apple’s profits exceeded Google’s revenues by ~ 2 Billion!

Who’s doomed? It’s safe to say Google will never make anywhere near those kinds of profits- Google’s essentially working for Samsung for free. Dumb asses if you ask me.

And the one that I did see, I noticed that the graphics are generally poor and there’s lots of vacant space on the screen- like the apps aren’t optimized for such a big screen. Fugly if you ask me. Apple would never accept such an ugly look- thank you Steve for caring about beauty.

No, Apple’s share of US smartphones is well over 50%. The 34% is Apple’s share of ALL phones. Indeed it marks the first time a vendor has beaten the dumb phone makers with smartphones only.
