Samsung Already Duplicating the iPhone 8's New Design with the Galaxy S8

[ackmondual]

"match the experience of iphone?" really?

smartphones are very competitive these days. it takes both hardware and software to fully integrate and work together to utilize battery efficiently in limited space. Samsung does not design OS and has no control over it. They rely heavily on Android and Google. How can samsung phone runs as efficient as iphone when Samsung has no software experience or control? Google and samsung are two separate companies, and cooperation between them is not as good as if they are the same company.

two things that most android phone owners complain: battery and laggy, no matter what cpu and RAM android phones have.

Apple doesn't make their own components nor assemble them. Foxconn does all of that. Samsung actually manufactures their own stuff, so your claims of "fully integrate" aren't quite all that. This is apparent as there are issues with the Iph6s battery shortchanging users on battery life.

I've heard plenty of iPhone users have issues with their phones. Solution? Restart the phone.

Samsung's lineup is most definitely a match for iPhones (if not more). And that's even if you leave out the Note 7.

You can keep trying, but the S series is and always has been the one compared to the iPhones.

So have Samsung Note, Google Nexus, LG G series, Sony Xperia, HTC One etc...

Take note of how Samsung were the ones pushing the Galaxy Nexus

The Galaxy Nexus was announced at Samsungs own Unpacked Event

Quite clearly a partnership here, it wasn't just a Google phone

Some of Samsung components aren't theirs either. Like the note 7 batteries. They switched to another brand and it still didn't help.

I believe they used their own and a third party due to supply restraints. But later moved to only the third party supplier after the recall.

They had both, like you said. But either way, they don't make all the components either. They definitely make more than Apple.

It was a GALAXY Nexus, as in BOTH Samsung AND Google partnered to make it. This remains the only Nexus phone that got branding of its OEM, as Samsung also had a lot of input.

Regardless of how much you want to move the Yard Stick, the Galaxy Nexus counts, as Samsung were heavily involved.

Nope, LG branded the Nexus 5 and I believe Motorola put their log on the back of theirs? Or maybe bit?

I'm not talking logo, I'm talking the Smartphone brand, the Galaxy Nexus is the only Nexus to get the smartphone brand. E.g. had they done it with Huawei the 6P would've been the Mate Nexus, or Ascend Nexus. With LG it may have been G Nexus or Nexus V etc...

With the Galaxy Nexus it was a joint venture, not just Google instructing Samsung.

The Nexus 5 has LG engraved in the plastic beneath the Nexus logo.
Did the Samsung Nexus have Galaxy written on it?

You're not getting my point mate.

Its not a G Nexus or Nexus V. Had it been a Sony it would have Sony written, but not Xperia.

If Sony had a partnership with Google like Samsung did with Google for the Galaxy Nexus, it would be a Xperia Nexus.

There's a difference between Google partnering on a device and Google getting an OEM to build a device for them.

Galaxy Nexus: Partnership with Samsung.
Google Nexus 10: Google getting an OEM (Samsung) to build a device for them.

The Nexus 10 had no Galaxy branding as it wasn't a partnership but rather Google getting an OEM to build them an all Google device.

Get what I'm saying?

Nope, I see them as all OEMs making a Nexus. Best not make any more posts on it as I don't get what your on about.
Let's go back to Samsung and its magical time machine antics to steal Apple innovations haha.

This pretty much put it all into perspective, as both are done by Samsung, but the Galaxy Nexus was announced by Samsung and had Galaxy branding, the Nexus 10 announced by Google and had no Galaxy branding:

But anyway, as you were...
