As Smartphone Industry Sputters, the iPhone Expands Its Dominance::Apple, which is set to release a new iPhone on Tuesday, has increased its share of smartphone sales by converting Android customers and adding teenagers.
Outside the US, no one cares. Most people use WhatsApp and they don’t care what hardware it runs on.
It doesn’t help Google is locking down android more and more with each release,inching closer and closer to Apple’s shitty philosophy without the same guaranteed support.
I kinda wonder if there will be any US device makers left? I guess mg biggest fear is let’s say iPhone uses up 90% marketshare in the US than releases a new standard for cell carriers and they drop support for anything but iOS.
Monopolistic companies: “This is the way”
I am a big Apple guy, but this is not healthy. I wish Google would step up their game.
So depressing when the bad guys win. iPhone keeps getting worse quality relative to competitors and keeps gaining market share… that thing with the blue and green bubbles should really be illegal.
