What is wrong with Apple? Why it is not competing with Android phones?

Apple Samsung Comparison

Compared to the feature-set latest Android phones have these days, Apple is far behind in the race. For example, take Samsung, the company bringing innovations every year to its flagship devices.

The latest Samsung flagship Galaxy Note 7 equipped with an iris scanner along with fingerprint sensor and the device is IP68 water &dust proofed. On the other hand, another Android phone manufacturers like Xiaomi, LG, LeEco., etc. are spending more resources on new features for an affordable price.

What is wrong with Apple? The company has always been focusing more on build quality and introducing a few new features with its proprietary operating system iOS. IPhone fans are getting nothing new more than that.

Frankly speaking, it seems that Apple is not at all bothers about the new features Android flagships getting with their every new model. Apple has a substantial share in the smartphone market. That’s why it is not feeling the heat from Android phones.

If we took iPhone 7 which is going to launch in next month into the consideration, concerning design the phone is near identical to iPhone 6S and 6S Plus. Faster processor, dual-lens camera, removal of the headphone jack, and redesigned antenna bands are the only changes taken place in the upcoming Apple iPhone.

If you are using iPhone 6 or 6S, there is no strong tempting point for you to upgrade to iPhone 7. In the same manner, if we compare Samsung Galaxy Note 5 and Note 7 there are lots of new things happened with the latest model.

Apple habituated to enjoy its fan base. Apple fans always argue, trying to convince people by highlighting the butter smooth performance iOS and Apple iDevices deliver. Yeah, the calibration both the hardware and operating system have is a great point, but it is not enough for those who invests thousands of rupees every year on newer iPhone models.

Apple must start to do magics with the upcoming models. Otherwise, the downtrend right now it is experiencing with iPhone sales will completely damage the brand value sooner or later.
