Samsung is a dirty little company

That's fine as long as you add innovations of your own. What pray tell has Samsung introduced in the innovation department recently?

What innovations has Apple introduced recently? That has never been Apple's strength no matter how their delusional fans want to believe (seriously the only real innovation I can think of was Newton, but it was a horrible failure of an actual product). Their strength is executing an amalgamation of good ideas and then marketing it.

I'm not blind Apple hater (which I know you probably assume, I've defended them plenty). With some things I think Apple deserves some credit, although often its not so much that Apple did anything special, its that everyone else just rested on their laurels (take for instance the "retina" resolution stuff). Apple, due to their financial strength and profitability is in a unique position to be able to push things where other technology companies can't. That to me is not innovation but rather just acting as a catalyst. I think that's a good thing and that technophiles that hate everything Apple are stupid as they've effectively become necessary to push things when others can't, so even if you don't like the Apple version of something, they often do lead to improvements in general.

Look at any mass produced product and you won't find much recent real innovation that is solely at one company. Technology, especially when it comes to software is practically intended to function so that innovation is not limited.
 
The only thing i'm disappointed with samsung is their software support. I'm from India and we don't even have the ICS for the SGS2 yet. Go figure.
 
I love how Steve Jobs made you Apple sheeple/retards (one in the same) hate Samsung for doing the exact same thing that he did with Apple: steal.

He knows it, and was completely shameless in admitting it countless times.

And you fools swallow it up like your little god has been offended.

lol
 
It kinda depends. I've encountered some of that which is nothing more than "American made is best" mixed with a bit of anti-Japanese resentment over WWII. I'm not saying there's no merit to it beyond that, but I've encountered some that is absolutely not. But then, I know too many people that refuse to change their mind even with evidence.

standards change.

Japanese products--electronics--were absolute shit at one time. Remember that the US essentially rebuilt their entire infrastructure after, well, we decimated in WWII, and it was very much an all-levels restructuring. I think the Japanese do have an endemic desire to produce quality, and maintain high standards, but it's important to note that when their economy was rebuilt, it was at the hands of a generation of Americans that still knew how to build quality (we no longer do).

Remember when Ford made some of the worst cars anywhere? Now...they ain't so bad. I still have a hard time considering them a worthy option, but they have made a HUGE turnaround from what they were in the 80s/90s.
 
OK. You've made your point (repeatedly). Companies are bad, we get it. You can exit now.

that wasn't his point. he was making fun of you for falling into this retarded class warfare that your god has made for you. lol: this company is evil! that company is infallible! waaaaaaaaa!


silly fanboys.

Samsung seems to be doing rather well on the innovation side since their items are on half the shelves in Bestbuy.
I don't really get the hate on Samsung especially for being a 'dirty little company' or insinuations about their lousy quality goods. They aren't that little and for being dirty, its par for the course in the industry.

Edit- What I'm hearing about the part about samsung being dirty is the legal shenanigans in the smartphone sphere which are being played out and not industrial espionage, sabotage, murder etc.

Yes, it was his point. He made if perfectly clear many times. And you're the fanboy, not me. Who do you see me supporting here?

It's already been pointed out earlier...and it includes the death of their own employees due to radiation poisioning.
