meh. it's kind of a chicken or the egg thing, but i think it's fairly established - based on the crux of both camps' 'issues'...
apple fans are obsessed with android fans' obsession with apple. i'm 99% certain the rift wouldn't exist without android fans' insistence not that apple stuff isn't 'as good', but that choosing apple is an 'error of judgement'... they don't have a leg to stand on regarding quality or usage because 9 out of 10 of them have never used apple products for more than an hour, if that. but the idea that EVERYONE who picks apple is an idiot who drools at the sight of sparkley things, and spouting almost pure nonsense, irrational logic, and disproven baseless factoids at the drop of a hat seems to be the fandroid thread-wanderer's MO.
far and away, as someone fairly intrigued by the phenomenon, i've noticed most android threads devoid of apple fans; there to only provoke. not always, but most of the time. the same cannot be said about apple threads. ever.
if you want to falsely equate the two camps on an article specifically about samsung where people are discussing them, fine. that's your contextual worldview, almost confirmation bias. but there's more at play than merely 'mine's better than yours because i own it.' android folks tend to really set the bar low for actual discussion.
