Na to dey watch and see wetin go happen in years to come..my only issue is why is it so expensive na at least other phone brand has cheap, affordable and expensive ones...

Also the way iPhone users carry the phone sef dey baffle me(may because I don't have such money to buy it too but again...why so expensive)

And the hawei or what how good is it in terms of quality...I have always been a fan of China as an innovative nation but most of the product claim to be of a lower quality
Because people want cheap products and China is fulfilling their desire. China makes high quality too. But if China makes a $1000 high quality phone can you afford it? Without China many of people wouldn't be able to afford a lot of things. Many people in Nigeria wouldn't own a smartphone.

Google isn't entirely giving you free things, you need to learn more about how they operate

Which of their app/product are you currently paying for? Yes! We know how they operate but if you are being charged the way apple charges for everything, I am sure phones running on the Android OS will be pricey just like Apple.

Op is a terrible blogger and those that commented didn't bother asking about the top three companies. Here is the list anyways

Microsoft
Amazon
Google
Apple.


Ok bye


Now, their stock is at its lowest price in almost 2 years . The current stock price pushes the Cupertino Company down to the fourth most valuable company behind Microsoft, Amazon and Google.

No I'm not, you're a terrible reader. If you didn't see that in my post

My dear, Huawei is trash like techno and Itel. China copycat the real deal and make them cheap.

Like Iphone like samsung, the technologies employed by those phones are expensive, because they pay different companies for those technologies and those companies keep on paying heavily on innovating something better or they lose the market with no chance of getting any better market.

It might be hard to get to the top, but to remain at the top is harder. Blackberry is not like Apple, mocrosoft or samsung, so the the difference is more within than without.

I hereby relieve you of the right to comment on any tech post on this platform. Did you just say Huawei is trash. Do you know Huawei has their own processor? Kirin and they're even working on their own OS.

Wait, Have you even seen the Huawei Mate 20 Pro.

Have you seen the Honor Line Up.

Don't trash a brand you know nothing about.

There is no sense there, Apple is the biggest tech company in china and one of the biggest employer of labour in china, china value apple more than the US, they were the first trillion dollar company because of china, so china is their backbone and Apple is the Face of china.

Any thing that would apoil that market is blown away with the full force of china interest.

China doesn't need Apple to grow. Why didn't Apple set up a factory in the US. Let me get the facts clear.
China doesn't need any western support to stand.

On a general note the only support the USA gives to other countries is military support but if it's Tech support leave it to China, Japan, South Korea and Taiwan.

Let's see how the trade war plays out.

Blackberry is a better phone brand but we know the full story.

When we start talking about phones, huawei is not a brand, but talking about other things like telecom equipment, you can now mention huawei.

Even their workers do not use huawei phones because it is another local hype.

Apple is a bit like Tesla in that the company is virtually inseparable from its founder/CEO. Both the late Steve Jobs and Elon Musk are visionaries on whose visions and personalities the companies became popular.

Unfortunately Tim Cook, the current Apple CEO, is an operations guy and not a products or technology guy.

The only products he's introduced are the Apple Watch and the Homepod; both are me-too devices in an existing product category. Apple watch is good, but that's largely because the competition is mostly rubbish. Homepod is not better than Amazon Echo and Google Home except perhaps in sound since Siri sucks huge blue balls

Apple's innovative spirit died with its founder.
exactly.

While elon musk keeps trying to make tesla better and more affordable, tim cook keeps cooking all steve jobs dreams by creating false sense premium brand with little or no innovation that jobs stands for.

I just wish apple crumbles like blackberry to teach other company not to fly close to the sun

Huawei the one banned by US the other day, please mention another company.

Any chinese company is an equivalent of NNPC in Nigeria, they have no investor apart from what the country gives it.

Viewed always with suspicion and they are masters of copycating and "cutting corners".

China censored the likes of facebook and whatsapp, let them open the market any you will see how Wechat, weibo and QQ would cripple in six months.



Wechat, weibo and QQ

Do you even know how old they are? undecided

Brand by sale or by Chinese money pumped into it.

The one banned by the US and allies. If your product is substandard it will not be allowed into US and that is exactly what Huawei represent.

Huawei in the same sentence with Iphone and samsung. SMH.

You can also put facebook on the same line with Wechat.

Let me put you to bed,
Two days ago, this happened:

Oga park well, huawei is better than iPhone and I mean the second largest brand by sale. And besides, wechat is 101% better than facebook. You should read up on the features of wechat. Besides, huawei wasn't banned because of the quality (get that straight), it was banned in the USA because the US said China is using the company's 5G technology to spy. Do you know the kirin (huawei chipset) is the fastest in the world for now? IPhone is just an over hyped shi*.

I forsee the gradual end of tech giants like Apple and Facebook. Nothing lasts forever particularly when your product lacks any real innovation and your competitors are far more innovative than you are.
Apple products lack innovation Or you wanted to use another word? Facebook lack real innovation? The first of it's kind in the history of social networking. Gosh,hope Yahoo plus guys have not used your common sense to buy Benz,cos you sound stupid as f uck angry

As much as I love quality but I think Apple products are currently overpriced. Its gonna get worse if they don't do something about it

What exactly is the quality that stands Apple out? The difference between an iphone and Infinix is not like Rolls Royce and Toyota but rather like Toyota and Kia.

Correct. China clearly understands the Asian, African & South American market and know that not everyone will be able to afford a $1000 smartphone made by Apple, then they decided to provide something of the same spec with cheaper price . If not for China , how many people go eat phone for Africa ? Apple is just overrated
