Samsung's Rivalry against Apple!

As it was a big day for Apple launching their iPhone 6,

Samsung Mobile's Philippines crew sent out a tweet on Tuesday,

making fun of Apple for increasing the size of the screen on the two

iPhone models that were unveiled on Tuesday. The Apple iPhone

5s , Apple iPhone 5c and Apple iPhone 5 all have 4 inch screens. All

other iPhone models sport a 3.5 inch display .

The tweet by Samsung features a quote from the late Steve Jobs

which reads, " No one is ever going to buy a big phone ." 

Samsung

then adds, "Guess who surprised themselves and changed their

minds."

 The quote by Jobs goes back to July 2010 at a press

conference held by the then CEO, to address issues that Apple

iPhone 4 users were having. Holding the device in the left corner

was causing the iPhone 4 to lose signal strength , which forced

Apple to send out rubber bumpers to owners of the phone.

Referring to handsets like the Motorola DROID X, which sported a

humungous (at the time) 4.3 inch display, Jobs famously said that

" No one is going to buy a big phone ." He also called models like the

DROID X and the HTC HD2 " Hummers ."

And the Tuesday's announcement of Apple,left Samsung to remind

its rival about just how wrong Steve Jobs was about the public's

desire to buy large-screened phones!
