iPhone Captured 31% of Smartphone Sales in the U.S. Ahead of Holiday Season

[RedOrchestra]

This is one of several reports of a similar nature coming out mid- to late-October. The consensus was that roughly half of the Note 7 owners were switching to iPhone:

From that link -

"This new survey would seem to be very contradictory compared to recent statements made by Sprint’s CEO Marcelo Claure, who claimed most of the carrier’s Note 7 customers are turning them in for a Galaxy S7. Another recent research note from BayStreet predicted that 70% of Note 7 owners will trade it in for a Galaxy S7."

But you carry on re-writing history to favour Apple which again was not the first to market with a keyboard less smartphone.

Everyone knows you're wrong.

So please do continue to claim that the iPhone was the first smartphone on the market without a keyboard, my evidence clearly proves otherwise plus it shows where Apple got its design ideas from for the iPhones shape so again that's a patent it should have never been given, unsurprisingly...

If you want to chose to ignore facts, be my guest..
