You are very from US to think that. Samsung strong in Europe.

Tell me when was the last time you heard boomers talk about Samsung. Never happened. Now how many times has nana mentioned "the iPhone" specifically?

Also not from the US, I live in Thailand. Everyone wants an iPhone. Those who can't afford it buy Oppo, etc.

Samsung may be "strong" in Europe but it's just because it's colorful and/or cheaper. You live in the HN bubble if you think that people care about specs and not brands/price. The choice is generally "Either Apple or whatever else in my budget"

		> The choice is generally "Either Apple or whatever else in my budget" Lol dude, stop acting like you know what's happening in my part of the world. People only care about apple because all major news outlets are payed by apple to talk about it when they hold their yearly sales pitch. People don't act like this with any other product/manufacturer etc.

		Not everyone wants an iPhone in Germany. It is not in the least like everyone who can afford it gets one and the others Android. Like in most high income countries, the money for an iPhone is available or can be scrounged together for the vast majority of people.
