Then why do the top two selling smart phones have 3.5" screens.
I only want a bigger screen if it has the same or less weight, the same or lower battery usage, the same or smaller dimensions, the same or better resolution.
None of the larger android screens accomplish that and most accomplish none of them. So if we really care that little about the device we use and just want a bigger screen why not a 5.75" screen that would be awesome day what...
Because they are iPhones. That's like saying, why are (insert specifications for tires on economy cars) tires the top selling tires? Obviously because that's what comes on the top selling car.
See the problem there?
Yes, but the argument is, what happens when 2 Apple products go up against each other. Specs make a difference at that point.
I'm not arguing it's existence. I'm arguing Unowen's reasoning...which is false. Our lack of knowledge does not make something which exists....suddenly not exist.
(If it doesn't exist....while being correct, his reasoning is still false).
1) Obviously; and you'll see what is happening right now with the 3GS and the 4. People buy the 4 and the people who can't afford or don't want it get the 3GS. Am I missing the point?
2) WHat I'm saying is, what is the reasoning behind you stating that? We don't know whether it exists or not, so... *stops*
I guess I"m asking, what's the point of stating the obvious? Unless the obvious was the point you were trying to make, in which I retract this 2nd part.

Yeah what does android as a whole have to do anything? That doesn't make any sense. Who cares about that... We are talking about people buying individual phones, why would we compare two phones against two hundred? That seems silly.
If one of these Android phones were that great lots of people would buy it wouldn't they? Or do android buyers only go for the best 2 for 1 deal when they sign up for their contract and they don't care about specs or quality at all?
Quality doesn't directly correlate with sales. I'm assuming you're somewhat young, otherwise you'd know this.
Sadly, the world just doesn't work that way, but this applies with pretty much everything; it sucks, and when you get older you'll realize how messed up it is.
Off the top of my head, the saying "it's not what you know, it's who you know" is like nails on a chalkboard. College students can recognize it when they see it: kids that get in because their parents are alumni or have a thick wallet; people getting jobs because they have "connections" when they aren't qualified. Just to give an example.
But to stick with phones; the stores and companies "push" phones to customers when they walk in. If they want to sell Galaxy S 2s (which they will, all of the carriers), they'll put up posters and tell the reps to PUSH THAT PHONE HARD. Seriously; you couldn't walk into an ATT store within a month of the Atrix's release without being hustled into checking the thing out.
I still walk into my ATT and hear "welcome to ATT, home of the iPhone". There's a reason they do that. They're being told to.
