Apple Versus Samsung

Apple Verses Samsung

In 2014 both Apple and Samsung sold a combined total of about 108.2 million units of their products! Samsung sold about 71 million units while on the other hand Apple sold 94.75 million units. For the past few years, the competing and comparison between Apple and Samsung was at its maximum. Fights started between people to prove an idea about which company is the best but they did not know that they were only comparing their smartphone. That is not the only thing a person should concentrate at while comparing two of the biggest multinationals in the world. People should look at the sales of all of the company’s products, their profits and losses, the history of the company, and the reviews of the people about their products. Samsung has proven itself to the people in the past few years of being better than Apple especially when it came to smartphones and laptops.

People say “Buy this product from this specific company because it has a rich history.” People, unfortunately, do not look upon other rivals and companies history. They just see what they want to see. Samsung, a South-Korean based company, established in 1938 is the largest information technology in the world for the past three years. Even though the company was created in the early 1900’s, the first product was released in 1970. Samsung’s first electronic device was a 12 inch black-and-white TV set. People who think that Samsung only creates phones, the first mobile phone system was created in 1992. On the other side of our argument, Apple Inc. is an American multinational created on the first of April 1976. Apple’s first device was the Apple I and the first Iphone generation was released to the public on June 26, 2007.

Each company cares a...

... decreasing the profit is they do not do their jobs. A negative point for Apple Inc. is that it limited itself to daily used objects (Iphone, Ipod, Ipad, Mac, and Apple TV) while Samsung also created refrigerators, washing machines, and many other house hold items. One of the common things between Samsung and Apple Inc. is that both either have shares or own other companies. Samsung bought all the shares of Rollei in 1995. Apple Inc. owns shares in the computer animation film studios Pixar.

Finally, I can conclude that Apple Inc. is the better company in electronic devices when it comes to profit and sales. It provides for us great products and software’s and in the future will provide us with better products. But they have to watch out for the competition because Samsung is on their tail and soon will catch up with and beat them in all aspects.
