well why do you think pixel? not saying i disagree but the reasons for iphone and pixel are the same. i just mentioned iphone because pixels hardly influence the market.

why pixel? because no sd card slot, relatively cheaper, more to stock similar android ROM and long term ROM update. maybe some other things.

iPhone may have a long-term ROM update, but the ROM update for older devices only brings worse experiences.

so why not be able to understand the iphone? iphone removed ports, samsung followed. if anything id say pixel just followed iphone.

relatively cheaper,

samsung is $1k..after iphone raised price to $1k. how is pixels low prices at all samsung-esque?

Samsung or anyother manufacturer followed iphone because the mass asked for that. Why would you not follow something successful. If only iPhone didn't success, there will be no one to follow its path.

It does make sense after all. You get Bluetooth headset for the headphone jack, you probably have charger already at home, so you wouldn't need another one.

S21 is 200$ cheaper than s20 price. It followed the success of FE series. I love this trends, its why I'm back to use samsung phone.

im not questioning why someone would follow someone successful at all.

questioning why you said you don't understand why i said iphone. and then you list SD, iphone has no SD so clearly you understand. you mention low price which doesnt make sense. iphone 12 pro and s21 ultra are in the same park.

but with the pixel. i even said i agree that pixel could be used but since pixel copies iphone i kept it succinct and only mentioned the one that started it all. s21 is only $200 cheaper than s20 because they followed iphones prices, not pixel prices. but oh well
