Samsung are a great hardware provider. No question about that. Overall dont you just love the impulse weakness of the buying public. We rave on about marginal gains and experience of so called smartphones but what do they actually do except entertain firstly then be a business tool, in part not full. Many people that have bought smartphones spend a large part of the day playing with them like some sort of sexual object but not actually doing anything to enrich their lives. They become brain dead living their lives through the lives of other on facebook or playing games, or taking 300 photos per day and achieving nothing. Great marketing.
