Yeah, you keep telling yourself about how unbiased you are.
The GS4 is a great device and so is the HTC One. But they appeal to different tastes. And when you ask a fandroid specifically what Apple must do to get ahead, they just repeat what you just said. "Apple needs to innovate" doesn't cut it anymore, unless you specifically state what you feel is "innovation."
I've now seen that myself & after my previous phone which was an S3, there's no way on Gods green earth I'd choose Samsung over Apple, I don't care if Samsung offered free lap dances for life with their devices.
There's been no major innovation from either Samsung or Apple recently.
First of all, the word you're looking for is "unbiased", not "unbias."
More importantly, "you keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it does."![]()
There's been no major innovation from either Samsung or Apple recently. But I say, so what? Samsung is wrapped up trying to make air gestures and bigger screens out to be major break-thrus. They aren't. There hasn't been any major technology recently that would allow some kind of major innovation.
My biggest beef with this commercial is all it does it make fun of the competition and that shows that you are building an inferior product and want to tear it down to build yourself up.
You don't see the likes of Ferrari, BMW, or Porsche making adds that mock their competition like this. They know they are the yard stick against which others are measured so they don't need to.
i find it amusing how samsung knocks the company from which 90% of their "ideas" come from...
Lenior also stated that Samsung still sees itself as a "challenger" and invests heavily in research and development to stay behind.
The Samsung S4 fans don't understand that size is not the be-all-end-all.
.
I know that's difficult advice for a bunch of stuffed suits that have no taste or real ambition, but give it a chance. At least you make great TVs.
iSyncr syncs iTunes over WiFi to your devices, including play counts and metadata etc:

my guess is in their minds, innovation=bigger screen, NFC, quad core, oled, 50 mp camera, 1.21 gigawatts of ram, etc... Mostly screensize, better specs, or nfc, which I still haven't seen any opportunity to use in my life, don't want, and don't really care about as long as it does things well.
apple innovates by destroying a market about every 4 years. imac, iPod, iPhone, iPad. next one due soon, my guess is iWatch, since the wrist watch killed the pocketwatch, which is what the phone is now, and how people think it is stupid and pointless, just like when rumors of those other ones came out. phones are mature now, you slowly refine them, which is what the galaxy s4 was too. except they added innovative stuff like eye pause, smart scroll and group play![]()
But yeah, it's great that Apple has competition. But me personally I'm done with whole smart phone fad, yeah I still own one and use it all the time, but I really don't have excitement about a new one coming out. They are all pretty much the same now, just give me one with a battery that lasts longer.
I find it funny no one here gets the point if the recent ads released by each company. Apple ads have been made for current users in order to keep its fan base and get them to upgrade. Samsung ads are for those looking for a smartphone in today's market. Samsung is not trying to woo iphone users they could care less they are trying to move new smartphone adopters and current android users in their direction and its working.
After mistakenly buying one of their 7000 series screens a couple of years ago, I disagree with your suggestion that their tv's aren't rubbish as well.
I'm seconding that. I have boycotted all things Samsung.All the same sung ads have done for me is turned me off from buying anything made by them (this includes buying for my IT department). It's one thing to make fun of a brand and another to make fun of its users.
Two duds actually and it was the 7 series now that you mention it. The first one went back within a week, mainly because vision below around 30% luminance was brown, purple or blue mush. The second one had what I thought was a more normal picture, but the black levels jumped around between shots, credit rollers and news crawls would jitter, the sound and vision would disappear for up to a minute if you went to the EPG waiting for it to load, and once you scrolled down two or three stations, it would go off again for up to a minute, there was about a 15° viewing angle horizontally before the picture would wash out like a cheap laptop and about 4° vertically and the Samsung people thought this wasn't a problem.
The last straw was trying to watch The Bone Collector. When Ang was underground, the most that was defined was her face. I had no idea what she was supposed to be looking at or for. This was an HD broadcast that I recorded for reference. When I played it back on the Sony, it was amazingly clean and well graded and you could see everything as intended and as you would expect. There are virtually no introduced processing artefacts like most flat screens. You can pretty much tell the original source codecs and even down conversion artefacts (from HD to SD), like on professional broadcast monitors. I am picky, but I just grew to loath that Sammy, and this is before I was really aware of how much they were copying their competitors. The Internet connection/response on it reminded me of dial up - the Sony isn't hugely better in that regard, but usable if you don't have better options.
I found that the Sony also had the most accurate colour and wide dynamic range, as opposed to bright and contrasty, once I had it at home.
Maybe they supply the States with the A grade builds.
Samsung became successful because with the help of Google it thoroughly copied Apple's iPhone design and selling it cheaper. In other words Samsung is a thief.
How do you explain Apple-HP-Dell in the personal computer market?
I thought Android would be like Windows. Meaning they'd get a "Dell" and an "HP." So what made you think that would be the case ahead of time?
