8 Of The Top 10 Most Profitable Smartphones On The Planet Are Made By Apple

Zeeshan Mir Baz has collected the information from this website:https://www.forbes.com/sites/johnkoetsier/2018/04/18/8-of-the-top-10-most-profitable-smartphones-on-the-planet-are-made-by-apple/#a225557db184 in this article John Koetsier Contributor said that:
In a new report released by Counterpoint Research, global smartphone profits declined by 1% last quarter, thanks to a maturing mobile market. But an astonishing eight of the top ten phones by profit share were made by Apple.
 
One of the most expensive phones on the planet, the iPhone X, leads the way with 35% of global smartphone profits, followed by Apple's other new models: iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus. Two year-old models, the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus, are fourth and fifth.
That's impressive but it makes sense, because Apple captures 51% of global smartphone revenues. That's three times as much as Samsung, and seven times Huawei, and accounts for $61 billion in revenue just last quarter.

Only in sixth spot is Apple's dominance challenged by rival Samsung, with the Galaxy Note 8.
In fairness to Samsung, the Korean company spreads its considerable global shipments -- over 300 million units in 2017, according to Gartner -- over many more devices. In 2014, for instance, the company decided to trim its lineup from a staggering 56 different devices to around a still-high 40. Currently, Samsung offers fewer yet, with 11 main models plus some variants.
All told, Apple captured 86% of total smartphone profits, according to Counterpoint.

And iPhone X, despite being controversial for its historically high price point, stands in a class by itself for profitability:
"iPhone X generated 5X more profit than the combined profit of 600+ Android OEMs during Q4 2017," says Karn Chauhan, a research analyst for Counterpoint.
Also interesting: despite recently giving up on the lucrative U.S. market, Chinese manufacturer Huawei grew its profits by 59% year-over-year.
Mobile is not the only market Apple dominates: the company also owns 59% of global wearable tech revenue, thanks largely to the Apple Watch series three.

The 4 Best Phones for Privacy & Security

Zeeshan Mir Baz has collected the information from this website:https://smartphones.gadgethacks.com/how-to/4-best-phones-for-privacy-security-0176106/ in this article BY  JON KNIGHT   06/12/2018 5:07 AM  said that: Smartphones are inherently bad for privacy. You've basically got a tracking device in your pocket, pinging off cell towers and locking onto GPS satellites. All the while, the handset's data connection ensures that tracking cookies, advertising IDs, and usage stats follow you around the internet. So no, there's no such thing as a perfectly secure and truly private smartphone, let's get that out of the way now. But in the information age, you practically need a smartphone just to get by in society, so the question then becomes: Which phone manages to be the lesser of all the evils? With critical vulnerabilities such as the  KRACK  exploit and  Blueborne , not to mention the  FBI attempting to find a backdoor  into practicall...

These phones do at least one thing that the iPhone X and Galaxy S9 don't

Zeeshan Mir Baz has collected the informatin from this website:https://www.cnet.com/news/smartphones-with-unusual-features-roundup/ in this article by Jessica Dolcourt June 25, 2018 12:29 PM PDT said that: Today, every phone is more or less a rectangular slab along the lines of the iPhone X ( $800 at Cricket Wireless ) or Galaxy S9 ( $700 at Amazon.com ) . That's not inherently a bad thing, but when you stack these devices side by side, it's easy to feel like you're drowning in a sea of sameness. From time to time I like to sit back and take stock of the phone designs that are different, some even conspicuously so. (We'll never forget you, Runcible ). When devices follow design trends in a pack -- slim bezels, face unlocking and the soon-to-b...
