even being generous and assuming he meant buy out just their mobile divisions that is ridiculous. Apple wouldn't sell their most profitable division and they frankly have the cash to buy out Sony if they wanted. I doubt Samsung which twice the size of SONY will be looking to offload their mobile division any time soon, I mean unlike Sony their mobile division is actually growing, plus Samsung as a whole is very profitable.


Samsung is 14 times the size of Sony by Market Cap.


I was talking more along the lines of assets and revenue but that works too

huh?

yeah...  because Apple's market cap is only $404 billion and Samsung is a hefty $204 billion 

???

Apple has passed its apex while Samsung's growth is accelerating. By the time Sony has enough money to even think about buying one of them, Apple should be cheaper.

Hang on... are you trying to rationalize this ludicrous statement?

No no no no no. I'm saying Apple is just more plausible for Sony to buy than Samsung, even if both are extremely unrealistic.

maybe even both?



Samsung will buy Sony but not before sony begs them to do it. The humilation that sony sells samsung tv's in their stores is pleasant.

Now you're pushing it.



No troll is too much for me to handle. I rehabilitate trolls, I train people. I am the Troll Whisperer.

I think its the opposite way around: Samsung and Apple should buy Sony.
Also, selling cheap phones in emerging markets is already done by so many other manufacturers so it won't work especially cause most people aren't that aware of Sony phones compared to Samsung phones.
