riiight. that's why I just picked up a Samsung Galaxy Note III on the verizon edge program and will be upgrading to an LG G3 phablet in a few months

How does what YOU do change what people in emerging markets want?

Flint
if v 'emerging markets', you're simply referring to BRIC markets, perhaps you have point. BUT, this is the good ole US, and the success Samsung has had getting the phablet phone to take off simply refutes your blanket claim that people "really want iPhones."

Alan Baker
And your purchase of a Galaxy NOTE proves that success exists, does it?

st And "one* "study" proves that people really want an iPhone, but purchase another brand in *all* emerging markets, even though other manufacturers produce high end phones that cost just much as iPhones and that are doing quite well on a global scale *and* mopping the floor with Apple crap.

How facking stupid are you, anyhow?

Flint
no, it simply proves that there is a market that values phones other than iphones.
