Thanks for posting this. This is a huge problem for Apple.
IMHO, companies do best with competition. An Android was a formidable competitor.
Also, anti-trust issues could become an issue in the future, even though there really isn’t a problem.
Same thing happened with Microsoft back in the day. They were the de facto standard, and supposedly had anti-trust issues. But it was just people choosing Microsoft.
Likewise, it is just teenagers choosing Apple.
Android needs to become cool, so Apple has a formidable competitor. Even though Apple is still best overall IMHO.
In Europe 65%-70% of smarthphone users have an Android. And as someone who lives in Europe I can say that I only rarely see Iphones.
Thats mainly beacuse most people watch reviews and look at the specs. And lot of people feel that Apple is too expensive and you can get similar specs for 3/4 or half the price.
Samsung and Google phones drop so hard in price after 1 year out that you can get them for a half the price of an Iphone.
