He dunno

If Samsung is expensive I wonder what HTC is

Brand name, Financial power, availability, quality after sale support, good hardware, marketing and advertising remember the bundling of Jay z's magna carta album in one million devices, they paid 5 million for it.. Somehow they have to recoup that money back..

I still think there phones are overpriced..

Samsung phones are like 7up the difference is clear. Once u handle Samsung and other phones u will see the difference, real HD display, innovative and out worldly features, solid premium parts, software support and a host of other, I am super tech savvy I can't find myself using another product if not Samsung.

yeah their products are expensive buh they are credible and their devices are durable

Samsung all the way

All this talk about quality, durability, features etc like other brands like Sony, HTC, LG, etc don't have those. I can tell you that other less popular brands don't offer less since they all mostly use the same suppliers & sometimes assembly plants too.

In marketing it's called Brand Positioning. It's a concept used by producers to make consumers see their products in a certain perspective. It's the same concept used by Vertu, Apple etc, funny Nigerians always associate high product cost to high quality.

Funny thing again is that even their fairly used phones are expensive too,imagine Samsung note 1 for 27k

Expensive is relative though .....it's a subjective thingy. All generalizations are false (especially this)

Like I use to say, the only time it is worth buying a Samsung or HTC is when u are buying their flagship phones like galaxy s and note series. When buying a low end or even mid range phones u are better off buying other brands like xioami, meizu, gionee or even tecno and infinix.

I tire for Samsung phone shey i fi go buy London used and will it still be durable

If you wanna enjoy your device, get a new one.
But if you want a good second hand, go for Gionee, Tecno, Xiaomi e.t.c..
