Iphone 5s What A Piece of Shit

Yeah, and they where wrong. It would seem to me, that it would hurt the Apple brand more if it was a true "budget phone" off contract. Apple never has been, and doesn't seem like any time in the future will be that kind of brand.

If this doesn't reinforce that I don't know what will.

Apple has been doing a lot of buying back this year, and it would seem to me maybe they don't care about being public anymore. They have tons of cash on hand, so they could probably care less about their stock price, which has been going down for a while. Haters, going to hate.

AAPL's unprecedented buyback is because they have too much cash on hand and their share price has plummeted. Do you understand the purpose of a share repurchase?

According to me Android phones are best no matter what part of world you are but I bought Windows 8 Phone because of better hardware configuration.
 
If the screen were half an inch wider it would be the perfect phone. Still hoping for a large iphone next year.
 
HTC One > iPhone 5S? Looks like over 9 million consumers disagree:

The iPhone 5S + 5C sold > 9 million units in 3 days time (I haven't come across a breakdown of 5S vs 5C sales). Comparing these sales results with other flagship models:
Against the Samsung Galaxy S4

The S4 is easily Samsung's most successful handset so far, yet in comparison it took a whole month to sell 10 million units.
Against the HTC One

Its biggest rival, the HTC One, sold half that in the same amount of time; five million units in 30 days.
Against the Nokia Lumia range

Nokia's Windows Phone handsets took 90 days to sell 7.4 million units. But that's the whole Lumia range combined. And in 90 days. In the Lumia line-up's entire history, since 2011, Nokia has only sold just over twice what Apple has achieved in three days.
Against all BlackBerry phones

BlackBerry is in trouble, we all know that. It's openly admitted that it's up for sale and has recently announced enormous job losses. At the same time as making 40 per cent of its work force redundant it admitted that it has only sold 3.7 million BlackBerry phones in the last three months, and a majority of those BlackBerry 7 handsets. For BlackBerry to even sell the same number of phones regardless of model it would take more than six months.
Against the 1st gen iPhone

Apple sold 6.1 million first-generation iPhone units over five quarters. That's 450 days to you and me.

The HTC One does look like a nice piece of kit though and gets good reviews...
