    Wow, those poll results. It's strange. I suppose XenoBot members are a horrible pool of individuals to collect data from. According to several sources, the iPhone is still the most popular phone in the world, with more than 500 million sold (worldwide) as of June 2014 (all iPhone models up to 5C & 5S).

    The iPhone 6 & 6 Plus are expected to be the most sold iPhone's yet (http://www.theverge.com/2014/10/20/7...-2014-earnings). In one quarter, they sold nearly 40 million phones. That's approximately 3 months.

    Apple said it sold 39.2 million phones, up big from the 33.8 million iPhones it sold during the same quarter last year.
    Recent Trades:
    Sold a 450+ EK to Omggg.
    Sold a 400+ RP and 165+ EK to Poppy218.
    Sold 100kk+ in Rowana (Open PVP) to many members.
    Bought characters from Baarj, HonkaPonka, and several others.
    Bought 520kk+ from Wobbz, PunktG, Ghazkyt, Reemow, and many others.

    @J.Dre It isn't the fact that we are bad for data collections. It's the fact that a large portion of this community isn't mind walking zombies that have to have the most over priced phone on the market. Every time I see the Android commercial on tv it makes me laugh because it's so true.

    I'm not sure how you think 500 million beats 900 million (a number from Q2 2013, compared to Apples Q4 2014 number).

    But then again, it has been universally decided among XenoBot mods that you are retarded, so your conclusion actually seems to be only mildly ridiculous.

    @J.Dre You should probably take anything you read The Verge with a lump of salt.
    They're the most biased tech site I've ever been to, they're on the verge of choking on Apple's dick.

    Generally, with personal investments, you really should not be investing in individual corporations like Apple unless you have very high confidence or you feel like making minimal gains, IMHO.

    Mutual funds have much higher annual returns, and even the riskiest ones are less risky then even the most reputable corporations. If you want to invest in things like Apple and Google, the best way is through a tech-centric mutual fund that happens to invest in both companies, along with hundreds of others. Honestly, though, I find biotechnology and general utility funds to have the best returns. I'm gaining around 20% annually with this strategy.

    Wow, so offensive. Damn... What did I ever do to you?

    It's not my conclusion. I was just stating information found online.
    Recent Trades:
    Sold a 450+ EK to Omggg.
    Sold a 400+ RP and 165+ EK to Poppy218.
    Sold 100kk+ in Rowana (Open PVP) to many members.

    Yeah, after reading some other sources online, I found they are not reporting entirely accurate information. As in, they're only reporting one side of the story.



    EDIT: It's also worth noting that "nearly 1 billion activated Android devices" make up devices from the following companies:

    Code:
    Acer Inc
    ALCATEL ( TCL corporation )
    Bluelans Communications
    NCE casio Mobile Communications
    Cherry Mobile
    CSL
    Dell
    Garmin
    Geeks Phone
    General Mobile
    High screen
    HKC
    HTC coroporation
    Huawei
    I-mobile
    Lenovo
    LG
    Motorola
    Samsung
    Sony Ericsson
    Videocon
    ZTE
    vs

    Code:
    Apple
    Considering Apple makes up more than half of that (iPhone's alone) is very impressive, to say the least.

    It is interesting, though, to see how many people on XenoBot dislike Apple or refuse to purchase Apple.

    Not, no its not. Android sells from many companies because its an open platform that encourages any hardware vendor to use it. iOS sells from a single company because it doesn't let anyone else use it. Hardware isn't the discussion here, it's software. and if you try to argue that hardware is part of the iPhone, then that's even worse, as most of the iPhone hardware is made by Samsung. Including the flagship "retina" displays.
