Anonymous, 13 Jul 2015M is a great advancement in tech. Just not a huge jump from lollipopM would be a great "advancement" if it can make it to 90% of the mobile phone. Alas most of the phones now will not even smell its update.

    3bed, 13 Jul 2015it costs them 150$ to build it and they sell it for 800$...thats why they are getting all the ... moreThen why does the Galaxy s5 look like it is a child's toy when compared to the iPhone? You cannot deny that Apple can push out updates that are optimised to their hardware and hence can ensure that the consumer has a smooth experience (the iPhone 4/4s being an exception since the hardware is so old and the iPod with the same specs didn't get the update). Android has to cater a much more wider variety. I'm not supporting android or iOS. I use both and love both. But stating that an android device is superior to an iPhone is a matter of personal preference and this works the other way around too.

Even taking into consideration brand pwr/value, cost 4 R&D as well as mkting cost i feel NO products r worth buying if they cost over twice their actual value to produce. Well, maybe except 2 iDiots of cos. Lol. ;)

                              Figures. Apple destroying everything is old news.
                              Guess they're gearing up to break their own records when the 6S and 6S+ come out later this year.

                                    Apple is a huge monster now a days... And Europe are concern about google there kkkkk... And android M is not a great leap in their ecosystem, android need to be more agressive if it want to show profit power to companies.
