No need to get all worked up. OP is right that Apple fanbois always come up with excuses.

By the way thanks for giving us the next goal post: build quality and overall coherence ;-)

"Us"? Let me get this right: I'm a "fanboi" (sic) for talking general business observations, but you are not while identifying directly with Samsung?

As for reaching that "next goal post", good luck.

For a consumer it's the only one that matters, and if you were satisfied before it was reached, why start being more demanding now?

You're making good points but it's missing the underlying current that OP was building. I was being facetious about it and the "us" was just to poke you a little bit :)

In my view Apple is a premium product and the quality gap is closing in quickly. We've already reached a level where non-experts don't see any real difference or at least not enough to justify the price bump.

You're a fanboy for aggressively but completely ignorantly trying to address points and move goalposts. The smugness with which you say 'good luck' is defeated by the clear bitterness and defeated attitude of the rest of your post.

They're still working on the profit goal post ;-)
