Samsung is a Korean company.
Yes, Samsung's money is in Korea which is overseas and this is why "Lol, Apples money is all overseas" is a tie.

Other than a stockholder, why would a consumer care who makes how much money? Did you know that about $94 billion of Apple's cash reserves are held outside of the US?
Most big companies operate outside of the US. It sucks for the people living in the US but the fact is a company doesn't have a passport. The company belongs to Earth, not country otherwise Apple, Microsoft, Google etc would only be able to trademark that name in US territory and some kid could name his Baby Shampoo store Google in the UK. Apple does make more money than Google and MS combined and that is because they're the best marketing company out there constantly winning that award year after year.
Did you read the post I replied to?

As is Samsung's. Tie?
I gave up on an Android in less than a week. Nuff said.
Just in time for Galaxy S IV - what a coincidence !
I agree with this. However, the thing Google offers that kicks ass over Apple are it's services. As long as Apple allows third party services to continue on iOS, that's fine. Phil can smack talk all he wants. The day we are stuck with ONLY Apple services with no other options is the day I stop using my iPhone. Apple has proven time and again that they don't know how to deliver compelling, reliable, innovative services. They just suck at it. Which is fine. I don't need Apple to do services well when so many others do it better anyway. So keep talking about hardware and OSes Phil.Schiller said that Android devices and the operating system "don't work seamlessly together" because they come from different vendors, unlike Apple which makes both the software and hardware in its devices.
Every day. What is funny about that?

Yep, don't get emotional about large companies because they aren't on your side!
All of iTunes money for example is in some tiny country in Europe isn't it because they offer a complete tax break? Apple have an office in that country so that the money goes there, I wonder how many people are actually in that office besides the janitor.
yeah I did and just saying that why does it matter that $94 billion of Apple's money is outside of the US? I assume you're an American that is upset by it right? Apple can do what they want with their company since Apple itself doesn't belong to the USA.
If you are not getting at that, disregard my post. I am just sick of people whining about stuff that is legally allowed.
Every review I read of Google Maps on iOS, on both sides of the fence, said the UI on the iOS was cleaner with some Android sites saying they hoped Google brought the iOS UI for Maps across to Android.
Don't want a tit for tat petty debate at nearly 11pm my time, so you enjoy your device and I'll enjoy mine.

It's cleaner because it is missing most of the features. Of course cleaner means it takes a million clicks to start navigation, etc.
Btw, I am currently using an iPhone 5. I've owned several Android devices including the Nexus 4.

Then you saw that the poster I replied to criticized Google because they gave away Android free and that hurt America. So does keeping $94 billion overseas and not paying taxes on it. It is legally allowed, so why criticize Google for giving Android away free and claim it hurts the US?
Yeh he is silly for that but I thought you were saying that Apple is just as bad by the money they keep offshore as well.
It's a bit of a moral thing if the company is avoiding paying taxes that would benefit society. I'm sure samsung and most big corporations do it so the argument is a moot point.
Just don't pretend Apple is a "good guy" I won't pretend Samsung is either because I'm sure they're not.
I didn't say either company was bad. I pointed out the contradiction in his statement.
But then how do you decide which country should benefit from Apple paying taxes? The manufacturing is done in China, the product design R&D are done in the US and Apple has pretty much every other country covered in terms of its stores. They should be paying taxes to every country they put a poster up in since their money is made from multiple countries and not just the US.

we're in the same view then
Yes and thats why your getting your ass kicked by Android.
I have owned the S3, Nexus 4 and the Note 2 and i can tell you fragmentation hasnt hurt my experience one bit.
PC's are fragmented to hell and they dont suffer. In fact OSX cant perform a single benchmark better than PC in any games.
Dont tell consumers its for their benefit you make the hardware and software. Its for your profit only
