Apple or Google? Apple or Samsung? Read before you answer

Apple or Samsung? According to the technology news released by the big tech companies they compete and hate each other. Don't be so sure…

Of course, Samsung wants to sell more phones, but it is making money when Apple has more iPhone. Google is paid when Apple sells more iCloud subscriptions and Amazon wins as long as Netflix continues to grow.Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC),

Does it sound strange? Perhaps, but it also means something else. All of these companies are not only competitors: they are also customers of each other.

iPhone X: From Samsung, Toshiba, Intel and Texas Instruments

The iPhone X may be Samsung's most profitable phone.

Apple can build the iPhone X, but Samsung is making the OLED screen that makes it so much so. The cost of the screen is 100 dollars. Add 100 dollars with some other Samsung parts and you will come close to the view of some analysts who believe Samsung earns more than any iPhone X sale than from each sale of it – at around $130 per device.

Regardless of whether this is true or not, every iPhone X sold is profitable for Samsung, as described in the Nerdwriter video below:

Here is to mention that Samsung is not the only technology company to have accessories in the iPhone X. Mark Bourgeois Gurman he says ότι οι εταιρείες Intel και Quallcomm παρέχουν δύο , Toshiba provides the flash storage and Texas Instruments one or two different components. Yes: the iPhone X was built, in part, by Apple.

Apple, of course, competes with these companies, but that does not stop it from buying their parts. The iPhone is the best phone sold every year, and Apple works with anyone who can offer the best price for the parts needed to make it - even to its rivals.

Google hosts Apple's iCloud service, Spotify and Evernote

If you use iCloud because you do not trust Google, news will not like: iCloud data has been stored by Google for years. Apple does not advertise it, but 2016 has begun to use the Google Cloud platform to host the service.

This makes sense as Google can offer much cheaper storage even if Apple creates its own cloud servers. Apple is not the only company that uses Google storage space: Spotify and Evernote are also paying Google for storage, according to Google.

Yes: Google hosts Spotify, Google Music's main rival. It also hosts Evernote, which competes with Google Keep. And they host iCloud, which competes so much with Google as well as with Google Drive for subscribers. Whatever service you use, Google is the one that gets paid.

Amazon hosts virtually all other services.

Η Google δεν είναι όμως ο μεγαλύτερος παίκτης στο παιχνίδι του Cloud χώρου αποθήκευσης. Αυτός ο τίτλος ανήκει στον Amazon, της οποίας τα Web παρέχουν τουλάχιστον μία υπηρεσία από αυτές που χρησιμοποιείτε καθημερινά.

Το Netflix είναι ένας από τους μεγαλύτερους πελάτες των υπηρεσιών Amazon Web Services. Η και η PBS χρησιμοποιούν επίσης το Amazon για την προβολή βίντεο. Οι Reddit, Airbnb, Lyft και Dropbox φιλοξενούνται επίσης στο Amazon Web Services. Και ακόμα κι αν δεν χρησιμοποιείτε καμία από αυτές τις εφαρμογές, κάποια από τις σελίδες που ανοίξατε σήμερα είναι στο Amazon S3.

So Amazon, which is almost invisible to the average user of the Internet, wins annually around 17,4 billion dollars.

Foxconn manufactures virtually everything

Playstation 4, Nintendo and XBox One are made by the same company. The same goes for the iPhone, Kindle, and laptops from companies like Dell, Toshiba, and HP.

The Foxxcon company has many factories on the mainland , and earned $131 billion last year from making products for other companies. You've probably heard of this company, probably because of the terrible working conditions and employee suicides.

Although Nintendo, Sony, and Microsoft are fighting for their console supremacy, a company can win regardless of the product.

So it's pretty safe to say that technology companies are competing, but also working together.

It is easy, as a user of these products, to think white-black. Maybe you like Google and Android or you think Apple is a terrible company. But technology companies are not thinking about these terms, because one depends on each other to build their products and offer their services.

Be careful what you will say the next time you talk to someone using a different platform.
