Including the flagship "retina" displays.
    I'm not arguing anything.

    You said I'm retarded because I reported that there are 500 million Apple iPhone's sold. Then you said, there are more than 900 million Android ACTIVATED devices. So, it does matter for the sake of discussion because for every activated device there is an Android device sold. You can't have an activated device without a physical representation of hardware, having first been sold to a customer. So, hardware technically is related to this discussion because of the software tied to it (i.e. activated Android's).



    EDIT:

    Now it's turning into an argument... But I won't take part beyond this post. I believe you are intentionally starting arguments with me because you get a thrill out of proving people wrong, and that's exactly what you are attempting to do. You obviously have some issues with manifesting tendencies to outrage. I won't be your enabler. We have not had a single conversation without you first insulting me in one way or another. I find your inability to have a mature, calm and adult-like conversation to be quite disturbing.

    Whatever I did to upset you, I apologize, but that does not justify your rude remarks. You need to let things go and move on.

    Hardware doesn't matter if we're talking about the OS, it does matter if we're talking about the vendor. Andriod is an OS, not a specific vendor, so in Android v.s. iOS, it is not relevant. In Galaxy v.s. iPhone, though, it is. Also, calling you a retard, or whatever, has nothing to do with this thread specifically. It just so happens that your overall personality and nearly every point you make is retarded.


    Lastly, you are stating a bunch of facts and figures, and when I refute them, you try to give more information as to why they still fit your view. That, by definition, is an argument. And it takes 2 to argue, buddy. But okay.

    Yeah, okay.

    Back to the topic... So, we have a very large majority of people who aren't purchasing the iPhone 6, but not many replies as to why. Feel free to share. I'm curious.

    Because it is a closed platform provided by a narcissistic company, and is less capable than the open alternative. It also has very few hardware variants compared to the competition. It doesn't follow any of the industry standards (instead of microUSB, it uses thunderbolt; the fast charge interface over USB uses an entirely different protocol and is incompatible with non-apple speed chargers; the headphone/microphone port has swapped pins for ground and mic, making it incompatible with non-apple amplified headsets [like turtle beaches]; their applications basically require you to use the Apple suite of tools for content delivery; you don't have strait-forward direct file system access; the list goes on).

    Lastly, many people must find it ironic that Apple will sue companies constantly for "stealing their ideas", and yet they stole a feature from one of the most classical products in the world: the bendy straw.
