"BWAHAHAHAHA... Stupid iSheep logic." WTF dude? What are you like 14 years old? You're obviously an Apple hater/troll and should be reported. This will be my last post to you, so you can blow all the hot air you want when i'm done because I ain't responding. Samsung controls the price for Apple parts, and have taken advantage of them. I said they make a third of their profits from Apple not revenue. Obviously revenue would be much, much higher than $7.8 billion dollars. Thought you were smart enough to realize that. Samsung is not a very profitable company to begin with but they are now thanks to Apple. Again back to my previous statement, I said Apple was a more profitable company. Did I not say it was $7.8 billion in parts? You make no sense of what you're saying. Pfff, you think Apple makes Samsung incur all the debts and costs of building materials and retooling machinery? All the chips are designed by Apple so they would be paying Samsung for building materials and machinery to make them as if they were building it themselves. Take a business class! Better yet, take an english class and learn to read. And that source you gave me was from June of 2010! A little outdated don't you think? You can't even give me a decent, recent source, lol. Sony was at one time Samsung's biggest customer but not anymore. What other kind of nonsense are you gonna cook up for me? I thought you were Mr. business guy? Where is your data to back up your claims? |
Oh god, you really are a moron. Manufacturing is NOT a high margin business, kid. TSMC, the biggest manufacturer in the world, only makes $4 billion in profit. How the hell can Samsung, which is the THIRD biggest manufacturer in the world make $7.8 billion in profits with just ONE of their clients? It makes no sense and clearly, logical reasoning isn't one of your strong suit.
"Again back to my previous statement, I said Apple was a more profitable company." No, it isn't. $43 billion > $41 billion. Go back to your 5th grade math class and learn how to count.
"Pfff, you think Apple makes Samsung incur all the debts and costs of building materials and retooling machinery?"
That's what the manufacturer does, idiot. Manufacturers do all the R&D and build the machines and go around to clients to sell them the tech they invented. Furthermore, the price that Samsung charges Apple Apple is BASED on the cost to build the machines and the R&D.
"ll the chips are designed by Apple so they would be paying Samsung for building materials and machinery to make them as if they were building it themselves. Take a business class! Better yet, take an english class and learn to read."
Apple designs their chips much like you design your pizza from dominos. It's still Samsung's tech. Apple only names specs. Manufacturing machines are SPECIFIC. If Apple engineered a new chip design, Samsung would need to build a machine specifically to follow Apple's blueprints. Manufacturers engineer chips. Consumer electronics company like Apple only buy the chips.
"And that source you gave me was from June of 2010! A little outdated don't you think? You can't even give me a decent, recent source, lol.

Where are YOUR sources? Your source listed $7.8 billion in parts (I'm arguing that's revenue). My source, which is a little over 2 years ago, said Apple makes up less than 5% of Samsung's orders. Do you think it's even remotely possible that Apple went from <4% to > 50% in a matter of 2 YEARS? Are you that dumb?
