the sueing game will keep going on and on... because some company patents the technology and then some other company does reverse engeneering and uses those technology in their products.....
apple sued samsung....
nokia sued apple.....
and so on....
now coming to apple, it has completely changed the way we look at electronics.
take ipod.... then came so many other devices but all failed....
take macbookpro...... then came companies to copy "back lit keyboard" "unibody"
take iphone 2g....... then ppl started using glass on touch screens
take ipad........ now u have almost 60% of the mobile company making tablets....
what is this? let the market leader do the expensive research, educate the consumers.. built the market, then u come and just copy it and add a little more spice and sell? is that fair?
samsung has no head or tail... they will just change one button colour and make a new model out of it... for a common man, there is no difference between a rs.15,000 android phone vs. a rs.50,000 phone. would u buy a 50lac car if it looks exactly like a 10 lac model? i bet not. (this is why corolla has so many haters xli vs. SR same shape)
some says galaxy s2,htc,nokia etc are better then iphone........
then how come iphone alone is the largest phone manufacture? with just 1 model not 50 different types? 100s 1000s of ppl can be a fool but if its the largest manufacture, then there has to be something about it.... and who says iphone is expensive?
for 35/month, u can get the iphone4 on contract (same as other android phones g s2, optimus)...
then y wouldnt ppl buy iphone?
ask youself.... if i give u a choice for iphone 4 or galaxys2,atrix etc, which one would u choose? i am very sure iphone... because atleast you would know that for a1 year contract, your mobile still remains "top of the line" unlike android which keep poping up everyday....
and trust me pakistan alone has no market for iphone.. that is y they dont even want to come in this region. See europe , see america ... every second phone will be the iphone... there has to be some reason, not everyone can be fools and we the smart one alone....
As for my own personal experience, i wanted to get the samsung galaxy s2.There is no doubt tht galaxy s2 is superior hardware wise then the iphone4..... infact i was just 1 pin number away from charging it on my card...
but then i realized... is it worth my 500 pounds? almost everyday a new android phone is coming out...my phone will not be even worth 200 after 5 months....
you know when you over do something, it loses its charm.. just like nokia, too many models ruined them..... this is exactly wat is happening with andriod.. they are over doing it.
