This chart was made using an excel spreadsheet with no proof of the collected data. Any respectful professional statistics company wouldnt be using excel as their software, second where is their source of statistics and documents to back it up? You can find surveys online that claim that 80% still think the earth is flat, how is this chart more credible?

Do you even know who makes the charts first off? Maybe this guy hears from both apple and Samsung is why he made this, bet you have a proof this didn't happen!

Lol. It was an objective observation. Take your morning chill pill. If any company wants to disclose figures it would do so itself not give them to a guy with microsoft office skills.

They are all popular it's all about taste and budget, me I'm an Apple guy all the way but I do understand people who come to my store and ask for an android, believe me if 10 years ago someone would have shown you any android device you would have sh*t your pants thinking its magic. But on the other hand I get at least 4 galaxy's a day needing formatting because of viruses or getting stuck for no reason and the only time I get iPhones to fix is because of broken screens or home buttons.

And it must be size for apple as a con, rest for pros! Android is just a con because ios is popular and never steal, faster than anything, simple one hand use, and any new things making it zero cons and many problems struggling on androids, barely any pros for them!

Actually size is pro on the iPhone, 4 inch is a perfect size for a phone if u want anything bigger get an iPad, sadly I believe that galaxy is forcing Apple to go bigger with the iPhone 6 I do wish that Apple will at least give us a choice with the iPhone 6 ( 4 and 5 inches ) just like they do with the iPad and iPad mini that way they can make everybody happy the lady's in u can carry those big screens phones in your purses and us man will keep carrying our iPhones in our pockets.

the charts were made by someone named "Brian Loftus". I followed to the sources but numbers don't seem to match up. iphone shows more subscribers with a higher point change compared to samsung/adroid, but there are no such numbers that supports this chart even if you go back in time. I think this chart was not prepared with real data, it just uses a true tile and a reliable source to inject false data.
