The value of the free iPhones or whatever is not $0. So if you are trying to argue they don't pay anything, this seems like splitting hairs.

If you see a prominent Samsung device in a show, there almost certainly was both free devices and sponsorship involved. If you see an Apple device, the going information is that it's just free devices.

They aren't picking Apple to save a few thousand dollars on props. In most cases they're trying to grab a little bit of that halo themselves.
