Samsung Galaxy S6 vs HTC One M9

Christian Post Report – HTC and Samsung are among the first to adopt the Android platform by Google. In fact, it was HTC that developed the very first Android-powered device.

The Taiwanese brand’s dominance in the industry was at its peak in 2011, when it unveiled its Desire midrange lineup, and the Sensation flagship.

Unfortunately, HTC’s story to glory was cut short when Samsung launched its first Galaxy S flagship.

Since then, the Korean manufacturer has been at the top of the Android and mobile markets, while the Taiwan-based company is sharing the market cellar with other brands, most of which offer their devices at very affordable rates.

In a recent interview with an HTC exec, the bitter rivalry is clearly shown. In a report by Android Authority, HTC Chief Marketing Officer Idris Mootee has some choice words for the Korean tech giant.

After praising Apple for taking care of its consumers and connecting them to “something that’s bigger than just an electronic company,” the executive then criticizes Samsung and describes it as “a massive brand and enterprise, doesn’t stand for anything except for profit.”

In addition to criticizing Samsung, Mootee also shared his thoughts regarding emerging mobile giant Xiaomi.

Here’s what he has to say against the current top Chinese mobile manufacturer:

“Lot of people talk about Xiaomi. It’s not really our competitor. I don’t think they’ll ever make it to the U.S., for a million reasons we all know. And I think their business model has a very short lifespan.”
