Huh. Isn't Apple slowing too? Wonder if people just aren't buying smartphones this quarter.
[QUOTE=woolio1;49621360]Huh. Isn't Apple slowing too? Wonder if people just aren't buying smartphones this quarter.[/QUOTE] Too many releases i think. I just got my S6 Active and now the S7 is coming soon. I think people are getting tired of it.
Maybe they should take the hint that people like being able to replace the battery and having removable storage. :downs:

Maybe it's because their latest phones suck ass these days.

And most people have a phone that works well enough.

Many people don't care about the ability to replace batteries, so the developers put their focus elsewhere.
I swapped from Samsung simply because lg made a better phone in the v10 for cheaper than the s6.
