I'm sure Hershey and Godiva share some ingredients but there is a reason
people pay more for one than the other. Once you get beyond CPU speeds
and display types, the end user experience is king. Of course I've never
really met a chocolate I didn't like.

Actually you know more about them than you think probably. They manufactured
the Nexus 6P I believe and they make many processors and other components.
They have manufactured several phones sold in the uS though and they are quite
good.

Huawei may make a fine phone, but I know nothing about it. In the end it's two
different markets. I'm sure Nissan sells a whole lot more cars than BMW. Last I
heard, roaches outnumber people as well :)

Huawei came really close to selling as many phones as Apple - CNET
Huawei's phone sales rose 20 percent year over year in the second quarter.

The gap in global phone sales between Apple and Huawei is smaller than ever.
Apple, the world's No. 2 phone seller by volume, sold 41 million iPhones in
the second quarter. Huawei, the No. 3 global phone brand thanks to its
popularity in China and Europe, sold 38.5 million phones during the same
period, Counterpoint Research said Tuesday.
Huawei's numbers are up 20 percent from the same quarter last year, while
Apple's year-on-year growth was 2 percent. Of course, the Cupertino,
California-based company has little to worry about. Though it sells fewer
phones than Samsung and may eventually fall behind Huawei, it has always
topped profit share. In 2016, Apple accounted for just under 80 percent of
all smartphone profits.
"Apple is the most profitable smartphone brand on the planet with highest
brand equity, however, it is in a conundrum," Counterpoint's Neil Shah told
CNET. Apple is losing ground in China, while brands like Huawei and Oppo are
becoming more popular. "Apple has been losing revenues in China since (the
2014) iPhone 6 (and) 6Plus launch, which was the peak for Apple in China,"
he said.
Oppo and Xiaomi, two other Chinese phone giants, also grew considerably. The
former sold 30.5 million phones in the second quarter, a 33 percent rise,
while the latter's 23.3 million was a 60 percent increase over the prior
year.
Samsung is still king though, with 80.4 million in phone sales in the
quarter. LG, its South Korean competitor, sold 13.3 million phones, 600,000
fewer than in the same quarter last year.
