Normal, majority of people out there don't need smartphones. They just need feature phones with few apps for shopping and picture sharing. If you give them the feeling they have exclusive/expensive toys that can do that - there you go.

It's not??? Like I'm gonna give you an example. What's the different between using an iPhone and a phone from Infinix? If you are a layman who doesn't care about specs, you'll never know until you try it out first. You can't judge "Apple will give me a better experience because Apple is a better known brand than Infinix."

I've tried those clothes first before I'm buying them. Majority of people don't try a phone when they are going to buy it. Most of them just buy it because "People said x brand is good, so I'm gonna buy it too." Not everyone goes to a phone store only to try using a phone.

Nope.

I rest my case. You made your purchases based on your feelings, not based on actual specifications. Many people do the same for phones, thus branding helped them in buying decisions

Idgaf about brand.
If it's overpriced, I won't buy it.
If it's affordable but have a bad quality, I also won't buy it.
If it's affordable and have a good quality and comfortable, I will buy it.

You must be referriing to the lesser flagships released by POCO or Redmagic which are gaming focussed and are more flagship killer than actual flagship.
potato4k, 15 Apr 2025A good branding makes buying decision easier for consumers. I mean how do you buy your shirt ... moreIts material quality and comfortability, ofc. Why would I need to buy a cloth from Uniqlo or a shoe from Nike if I can get something with similar material quality and comfortability for cheaper? No one give a damn when I told them that I'm using a Uniqlo cloth or a Nike shoe.
These reports are limited in scope and shortsighted. Apple is down(good)! The industry as a whole is down. Lol funny every new Galaxy seems to sell way better than the previous model. Lol people really believe everything 🤣
Anonymous, 15 Apr 2025Main reason for increase in Apple's shipment is pathetic pricing policy of Samsung phones... morePricing and positioning. I think the non ultra S series should have a bit more omph, bigger battery, better cameras, more ram.
The FE shouldn't exist and the 2400E should be given to the A5X to beef it up. And the chip in the A5X given to the A3X. Right now Samsung's midrange offering is terrible.

I've not had experience with their flagships though mostly I just use flagship killers(pocos, redmi K) and they have been reliable.

Samsungs greed and Apples new pricing allowed Apple to surpass Q1 sales. Samsung better get it together or they'll soon start showing the beginning of the end.
No samsung is always king iphone no 2 but gaming iphone better
Wherever there is carrier contract, iPhone will always be number 1. If people had to pay full amount in one time for iphone in all countries, Apple wouldn't have been in first 3.

That's because in many asian countries people buy iPhone for its name, not specs.
