Really??? Care to explain?? How could a customer satisfaction survey well......survey something you didn't buy?

I.e. Doesn't appear to be a correlation between satisfaction and sales; we may agree on this one point. However you are thinking the survey may have been sent to people only who own both devices; do you think surveys really work like that?

You assume wrong I do not assume the survey was sent to people that own both devices. Never have i said that anywhere.

This is just you avoiding the questions

Also, customer satisfaction surveys do not represent what consumers purchase.
Can you explain you statement?

The only assumptions are your post; I simply asked a question.

As for the statement in question, simply means satisfaction is not tied to sales/purchases, which I believe is one point of agreement.

Show me my wrong assumption or any assumption I made. I am not in agreement with anything you wrote.

So does this thread now contradict the 'Note 4 satisfaction thread' by claiming the more phones sold, the happier the customer? There seems to be different reasoning now in each thread.

Oh, so then you are of the opinion that satisfaction is tied to sales. Interesting.
nope not at all.. That's what you always point to as the measuring stick since the iPhone is the best selling phone. it seems the iPhone sells more...... But more people are satisfied with the Note 4 than the iPhone 6 plus

We will know for sure in about a month.

I predict "yet another profit decline."

I just find it funny that Samsung is beaten so heavily in the low-end Android segment where specs actually matter for the user experience by all the Chinese upstarts, but when it comes to the high-end the specs become meaningless in the eyes of the public compared to a unique ecosystem and fashion that only Apple can offer.

I predict the opposite. I predict Samsung sales will increase over last quarter.

Sales will be flat, revenue will go up and maybe profit.
So here are the current figures to do a level set. I predict samsung sales to increase the next quarter.

Given the way the S6 line was launched it won't be an apples to apples comparison to the S5, but I do see a bump in sales.
agreed...I am not comparing sales to last generation. But an increase in Samsung total sales the next quarter. The S6 is going to help them gain more sales over last quarter.

i expect sales to go from strength to strength but could care less really as to me i fully expect note 5 to be the best device on the market this year for my needs. you know the next iphones will be spec bumps until next year.

Love the new compact S6 but when I need to take notes and have to use my finger it feels neanderthal compared to Note. Probably will end up owning both. With how terrible S6 sales is rumored to be, I was hoping to pay much less but it's still commanding MSRP as of this week compared to iPhone 6 for $1 with 2-year contract.
