QUESTION: How do the phone departments of Apple and Samsung remain in business when Google offers a superior phone for 1/2 to 1/3 of the cost?

It just doesn't make sense. It's like people enjoy throwing money away.

What matters is perception. Do people really perceive Google to be offering a superior phone at 1/3 the cost? Hint: The answer is no.

Because Google doesn't? Android is a clusterfuck and Samsung has some damn fine hardware.

Because if anything ever goes wrong with my phone, Apple will replace it. Walk in and walk out.

I guess it never occurred to you that people have different preferences when it comes to phones...
