Which concludes exactly what I said. They are selling cheaper parts for dramatically higher profits"
In my country S5 cost about same than iPhone 6. So samsung also selling cheaper parts for dramatically higher profits. Except the problem is that S5 was flop and samsung profits went down 60%
So what part dont you understand? high price phones which sits in the stores doesnt make profit :D

The point was about the quality/worth/ price of products...In reference to you and other trolls trying to side track from the simple fact that Androids can cost more to make just don't scam you blind in pricing like apple.
As this article clearly shows.

knowing that android has the sales number (2 or 3 times more than apple,even more)it clearly shows apple RIPS 6 or 7 times more profit from each buyer.
happy apple shoppers,oh i meant "profit providers".
apple is just too overpriced
that's why android has lot more sales but less profit.
i like numbers, they never LIE.
that's the reason sammy & sony have trouble stepping forward in smartphone business,android pricing is competitive & they have to reach their expected profits through competitive pricing(because android customers buy a phone for what it is & apple customers buy it not for what it is but for it is apple, lol) so apple pricing is what they want,
huh they make a 400$ phone & sell it for 800$.
i love you all apple customers.happy shopping.

Higher profits doesn't mean a better product, it means the companies selling it are making more from the sale, which in turn screws the consumer out.
What you as the consumer want to see are low profits. These are the companies that are making the least amount of money off the products they sell, which in turn saves you money.

Jesus Christ~! I don't know how you turned this into a iOS vs Android war but let's get something clear.
Apple's iOS is ranking high due to the high gain value from the smartphone sale's. While other smartphone values tend to get lower during the year until the release of the new flagship, Apple maintains a constant price throughout the year generally leading to a higher profit ratio than other brands. Allot of low value smartphones were introduced on the market this year which had a very low profit ratio, almost non existent, but proved to be very popular and in high demand. It kinda explains why Android profits dropped so much.
