 If iOS is better than Android, and the vast majority of people would agree, why do more people buy Android based devices than iOS devices?

This is a joke question, no?

- 1000 models with Android from $1 to $500
- 1 model with iOS per $500.

Which sells more??? lol lol lol lol lol

Anyway $500 iOS sells way way way way way more than $500 Android (iPhone 5 will crush Galasy SIII in one week).

FACT: Majority of people buy Android because there are no cheaper iOS... it's just a just a placeholder.

The Galaxy SIII has already sold 20 million units and Samsung expects it to sell another 10 million by the end of the year ... I highly doubt that the iPhone 5 will outsell it for some time.

As for the price, the vast majority of iPhones are sold on 3 year contracts at a price dramatically below its MSRP; and the cheaper android phones are usually bought by people who don't want contracts. On the whole if someone thought the iPhone was dramatically better than the Android phone they were buying they could easily pick up the iPhone for a similar price. Most people don't because they either prefer not having a contract or think the Android phone is just as good or better than the iPhone.

I agree that samsung galaxy S III will continue to sell well for some time and the rest of the point. But where exactly do 3 year contracts happen? I have only seen 2 year contracts. 3 years is just stupid for a phone, look how much better they are now, then were 3 years ago. a major improvement in capabilities of mobile phones



Xbox Series, PS5 and Switch (+ Many Retro Consoles)

Prediction: Switch 2 will outsell the PS5 by 2030
