Okay…well I’ll end by saying this, you need to read the last portion of your post because you apparently got so upset that your grammar went completely out the window. Secondly, We all know this started with Motorola and that Motorola’s build quality can be considered second to none. But, in this mobile landscape, build quality alone is not enough. Customers are too savvy today to accept locked and encrypted bootloaders, horrid firmware update support, flagship devices being released within 4 months of each other, and (gehhh) Motoblur.

Build quality and tenure in the business can only take you so far. Samsung has figured that out and decided to go the other rout, factor over form, and I have to say that I’m not upset with them about it. I don’t care one bit icons are “eerily similar” to iOS, because the bottom line is nothing else about the phone is. Home button or not (which Apple did not invent, by the way)….dude…..

Sorry, didn’t mean to snip at ya. I am just tired of so many people dumping hate on a company that has done so much to help bring Android to dominance. I really need to stop reading the responses in these blogs…

And who’d they copy the 5″ device from?…Dell??? HA!!!

You mean that depacle of a device? Palm devices had pens a long time ago…so what??? Will you accuse them for making 1080p TV’s because they didn’t make it first. Or maybe you don’t like their new curved screen TV’s because IMAX had a curved screen first?

The arguments of who did what first are ridiculous, there is very little that we can truly call “new” these days. Most “innovations” are built off of other innovations that were either inadequate, poorly designed, or existed in a market that was previously not ready.

Why should I?…What other Android OEM should I respect? LG? Did you see their lack of production effort? Motorola? Not lately. HTC? Pfffff, ha! Amazon? Nope. Sony? If they can ever figure out what market they’re in. Maybe Huawei?…..Nah.

Admit it, the only company relentlessly and imperialistically growing the Android Army, regardless of who’s feelings they hurt, is Samsung.

Yeah…I can respect them for that. I didn’t say I agree with all that they do, but then again I don’t recall them asking me, or you, or anyone else about how to cell 100million phones…

“From the phone icon to the messaging icon to everything in between”. On my S3 there’s nothing in between those. They sit right next to each other on the screen.
You’re going to jump from icons to “everything”? First off, what do you come up with for a text messaging icon that would be extremely different from another? Or a phone icon? Phone’s look pretty similar if you haven’t noticed. A banana shaped arc with two globs at each end is pretty much a universal symbol of “telephone”. So if Apple invented that shape back in the 80′s, then you’re right. Otherwise, you’re sounding a little desperate.
I was thinking of some rebuttals to your post and then I noticed that you kept misspelling “the” and you called “Google” ‘goggle’. I’m not usually a grammar police, but generally if your aim is to attack someone or something, you should cover your bases at the very least with accurate spelling.
You bash Samsung for blatantly copying, and then you bash them for not “following Google’s lead”. I think you need to make a decision for your self whether or not they copy, or carve their own path. You can’t really deliver a solid slam on a company from two contradictory angles. It makes your entire opinion nonsense.
Also, I do not have a problem with companies taking good ideas from one another, as long as they don’t turn around and try to sue the original innovators. Samsung does a pretty darn good job of innovating their own stuff, and mixing in a little from other companies. That’s what makes a good device. Samsung has innovated the Note device line, love it or hate it, they were creative with the Nature theme on their UI. They took the risk of making the first giant screens on devices, they were the first to REALLY market the use of NFC with the tapping of devices, and they are the only company with the guts to stand up to Apple. From what I can see, they are the only ones taking risks while everyone else is playing it safe and acting scared.

X Phone may be the best phone and the most exciting one for enthusiasts for us, but Google and Moto simply don’t have rapports with global carriers that Samsung has built on for quite a few years by now. It is sad, but without carrier push, it won’t be too popular. Samsung tries to suit each carrier’s specific needs, others are not or simply aren’t capable.

Apple is a completely different dog in the game due to insane popularity in many markets across the globe. However, if you look at how Moto and Google have been handling launches of their handsets, it’s not happening that quickly.

lol no. I hope so but it’s incredibly unlikely. It would have to be a monster with insane battery life, available on every carrier at once but most importantly have a marketing campaign that blows it all out of the water
