Luxury hand bags sales in Korea are the highest in the world. They starve 6 month just to buy a Gucci hand bag. It means lot to them. Koreans consider iPhone as luxury brand since it’s expensive in Korea. Thats why they are crazy over it. Its not how good they are. Its the symbol.
I agree. South Koreans as I have noticed are brand conscious people. Always looking for recognition and validation by owning things and appearing as "can afford" people.
Korea, Japan and China are the largest consumers for the biggest luxury brands in the world. It shows how much the society puts emphasis on brand name rather than functional value. So is it a surprise that young people want to own the most popular brand name phone rather than the domestic one?

Samsung are arrogant as well as too assured of the home market.You would expect to pay less for a Samsung phone in SK, but turns out that often you can get both flagship models as well as feature rich non-asian market models for less in western countries
I also love Samsung, I am still using a Note8 but i am really satisfied with it. I feel sorry that they stop the note series, Apple was my very first smart phone but after I switch to Samsung, I'm hooked!😊
Samsung is still number 1 in South Korea although losing market share. And it's not just SK that Apple products are becoming a "trend". Almost all Asian countries prefer purchasing Apple products than Samsung or any other Android devices
Not for me. First, I can afford. Second, it just works for me and compliments my life really well. Sometimes, it's just preference. But yeah Filipinos or poor Southeast Asians really tend to sacrifice their financial health for something as stupid as an iPhone or material things in general.
@@Ivan-bg1jp2nd hand iPhones in Philippines are of same cost as midrange android now so it's more cost effective esp it has high resale value and will be supported for real esp privacy. iPhone 11 starts at 13k in 2nd hand market...why buy android of same price that will not be supported in a year and the uploads are not as clear as iPhone. 13pro max 2nd hand in Philippines is 25-33k. midrange android phones in malls are 22-30k. 12 pro max is 19-25k. iPhone 12 starts at 15k now
As I'm Korean, in my opinion, trends and reputation are quite important in Korea. They prescribe the standard of social success (for example: fashion, job, residence, looks, etc.). It's changed a lot compared to the past, but it's still a group-oriented and conservative culture (many Koreans deny multiculturalism). Put simply, they are overly aware of other people's eyes. So this is the reason why young Koreans are likely to use iPhones.
@TheWorld4all Although my dad is a landlord, I use a budget Galaxy model and I wear clothes for at least four years. The reason is that I understand the value of money. However, from my experience, I've noticed that some people who are less fortunate mistakenly believe that "money exists to be spent" and are overly concerned with what others think. Therefore, they tend to overindulge, adorning themselves with many luxury items and posting only the best parts of their lives on social media platforms like Instagram, striving for validation from others. However, if they truly had great wealth, they wouldn't feel the need to act this way, as having self-assurance and confidence in what they possess means there is no need to flaunt it.

First of all, Samsung's foldables are sick! That said, it's interesting watching Korean youth starting to choose Apple. I almost expected it since Apple is often equated with luxury. And Koreans are the #1 consumers of luxury brands in the world. Apple has made quite some headway in Samsung's home market. The danger for Samusng is when teenagers and young people start using Apple, they'll continue to use it into adulthood. But... in South Korea, everything else is Samsung so there's that. loll...
What sent it into overdrive was the 7th generation of the Samsung Note had fire and explosion issues which made many ppl switch. Samsung still dominates ¾ of phone sales but among the youth, it's trendy and widespread
The very thing that would bring any society down is being overly materialistic, trying too hard to please others, and patronizing those who don’t share the same values. No wonder I see more modest Koreans and Japanese emigrating to other places where such values are not prevalent.
Apple is a status symbol, not only in Korea, all around the world, I’m Brazilian, we often have the most expansive iPhones on the planet, there’s people here that pay their iPhones in 24 installments, using 3 different cards, just so they can show off their “richness”, and social media content creation in 🇧🇷 is huge, and in that area you can’t go with anything else than an iPhone.
Of course they'll prefer iPhone. SK is very materialistic, and alot of Apples marketing is around being a status symbol, that's why they can afford to not innovate and people will still waste their money on the new shiny one each year. Personally, if you're not really a tech person, I can see the appeal for the iPhone, it's much simpler and they basically tailored the experience for you, you play within their box that they set for you.
Luxury isn't really a big factor, Samsung in S.Korea sells their phones with no actual promotions happening since theres no competitor for them in the Android market. If you want to buy a Galaxy in Korea you have to buy it with full price. There's no Pixel, Huawei, Sony, One-plus, etc in the Korean smartphone market. Why'd you buy a Samsung phone with a full price that'll probably have a discount in other countries when you can buy an iPhone that has the same price for nearly every other country? If they charge the same price as an iPhone I'd rather buy an iPhone.
The secondary market for Samsung and Android phones in 🇰🇷 is popular also. You can get refurbished or second-hand📱 in almost new condition for half the price.
@@rௐண yeah, one of the reasons why iPhones are so popular too, the price drop from buying a new one to selling it second hand is way less than doing the same thing on a Samsung phone
I was galaxy user, I got so bored with galaxy so I moved to the iPhone, other problem is no another brand to buy other than Samsung or apple which sucks
I don’t have a preference. I personally have a Samsung (s21 ultra) and iPad Air and a windows laptop. From my work I have a iPhone SE and a MacBook. Apple is better with intergrading there products but Samsung is just more innovative and open what I personally like a lot. I love things like custom Roms and theming. Apple is just more restricted In those things. For security they are about the same.
That's funny, because I've been using Apple products from before they launched the iPhone, but I've been thinking of switching because the Samsung camera/lens seems superior from all the images I've seen.
Koreans should be proud that their country has a global tech brand like Samsung Korean Patriotism😂 I wish my country had a company like Samsung, but R&D sucks in here
@@marcioamaral7511 He never said Samsung devices can’t run smoothly, he specifically said that iOS devices can run smoothly LONG YEARS AFTER than any Samsung devices, which is true. Apple has a great history of older iPhones lasting a very long time by still getting the latest iOS updates after long years, and still performing smoothly. I can confirm this since I still use my iPhone XR from 2018 still till this day and it’s still getting the latest iOS updates for at least 7 years now. Another thing is Apple still releases security updates to even older iPhones, even years after they last got a new iOS update. It’s not a myth, it’s a fact.
The real reason many young Koreans prefer iPhones because older Koreans prefer Samsung. Young generation tend not to use the same thing as older generation do, unless you have no other options.
The answer is quite simple : iPhones are better than Samsung and other androids in every way. Scamsung and other androids come with lots of flashy features, none of which work properly and all of which are buggy. Not the case with an iPhone. Ofcourse the android sheep will say we simply buy iPhones to show off, but look at your own android phones lol. They’re just as expensive as iPhones and yet they perform like shyit. That is why we choose iPhones. Because we prefer quality over flashy features and “customising” our phones like a toddler’s drawing book.
I have a Xiaomi phone and it's not as expensive as iPhone. And I can call, text, and use Internet like iPhone. For daily use, it doesn't have any problem. Plus, I saved some money to use on some other important things.
@@雪花冰玉-xuehuabingyu LoL you're speaking facts, definitely a slipper slap in the face for iSheep abhishek🩴😆 My 5 year old cheap 20K INR (250$) Realme X2 works fine even after gaming CODM on it everyday meanwhile iPhone users will cry that they got green/white screen issue, decreased performance & battery capacity right after 1 year when new iPhone model release (planned obsolescence by greedy Apple)
Abhishek you're just delusional, you're stance may be correct like before 6-8 years but now android phones too have well polished software experience. It's very clear that you just blindly support Apple & blame android to be buggy without experiencing it's features. I love to customize a lot during early years of my Android usage but now I just use 1 or 2 customized features but that doesn't mean I need an iPhone. I might not need that feature but someone else will need those features. It's better to have something than nothing right?😃I like iPhone for their simplicity and iOS UI/UX but iPhones for the last 5 years suffers serious quality issues which hinders the longevity of usage. I won't invest in anything that's expensive but not lasting long.
@@gokultn72 anybody who says “android phones have well polished software” deserves to be made the poster boy for delusional. My stance was correct years ago, it is correct now, and it will be correct several years from now unless android somehow redesigns their entire architecture. But until then, all of you android sheep are welcome to keep complaining about how iPhone doesn’t do this or doesn’t do that. In the meantime, I’ll take my stable and bug-devoid iPhone any day.
More like a status symbol to some like a Prada, Channel or Gucci bag. It's not just Koreans prefer Apple over Samsung in terms of phones or tablets it's also very similar to how some people prefers to drive an Audi or a BMW or a Porsche rather than a Kia or a Hyundai eventhough they have both good qualities. That's not to day that Apple is superior over Samsung or the other way. It's just a matter of preference over the other.
My reason for switching to Iphone was the quality hardware and software. Also with android devices before you upgrade there a waay too many devices out there. Meaning in one way or another you will be disappointed in a feature on your android. Apple has limited device options, all of the options are solid devices. Plus the software and hardware feels a bit more safer than android’s.
android give u choice for your phone: flip,fold, sd-card,jack , maxi , mini, max zoom, cheap, super cheap, shutter button, super expensive, now tri fold, AI, no AI, pen or not. Apple is more like a ford T, one phone for everyone but u dont get to choose what u want/need (but color and capacity at a high price), u cant customize it much(well, now u can in iOs18) but he has long years updates unlike most android phones ( but samsung and pixel, i think, 7years). if u r not in a country with a huger Apple market share (>40%), noone will use iMessage, facetime and airdrop ( i would say only japan,USA,canada and may be korea now would use those apps) ....killing the specificities of Iphones (but if u have an Apple set up workstation/tablet/buds/phone or relatives with them eventually)
The reason is simple most people dont consider or prefer their own brands and etc so they prefer foreign brand which is best .If they are from Korea then mostly Iphone if they are from US then Samsung !
Here having an iPhone is a flex. I feel like it's more about showing of rather than it's use and what's more my country doesn't even have any official Apple stores. The sellers import them illegally. Also too bad that they don't prioritize their own country's brand. I've been dying to buy a Samsung phone
They have the best social media optimization but when it comes of camera both pixels and xperia win, sony makes their cameras. Their video recording quality still the best tho
I used to use only Samsung phones until I saw the Vice documentary about Samsung employing high school graduates to make electrical components without hazmat gear. 20yr olds dying from cancer in the 2000s and Samsung only settled in 2018😞 Ruthless for mere millions split between hundreds of families.. smh
Apple is not without fault either. Multiple deaths/suicides have occurred at Foxconn Apple’s manufacturing sweatshop in China since 2010. Most recently they have been accused of human rights violations that includes child labor. This information makes Apple just as “ruthless” as Samsung, putting millions of dollars over the safety of people. As morally wrong the Samsung case is no company is without scandal. The only way to avoid it is to not buy anything.
Apple outsources its manufacturing sector of their supply chain to primarily South-East Asian markets, paying below minimum wage, long working hours and squalid conditions. It basically comes down to _picking your poison_
Korea has alot of money and like other countries. Imports are trendy. Like Germany, their taxis are BMW. If you have an imported phone, car, jersey... accent. I dont know if they have it in Korea. There was a PC mall was a multi-layer apple store.
Rise in popularity also has to do with South Korea's taste for luxury goods. What Apple has done with the iPhone is that it transcends functionality and has become a luxury product. It's not that the iPhone is objectively better in every category, though it does excel in a lot of areas that customers love like the ecosystem, it has been elevated above the price sensitive market into the luxury market where people are willing to pay for the brand. Which leaves other brands like Samsung fight for the bottom and Apple getting more affluent customers, those are the principles of a luxury brand.
I always used Samsung devices since I was in highscool because it's cheap and reliable for me. In 2021, I got a Samsung Note 20 ultra, but it eventually broken without any reason. I took it to the store and they said the motherboard is fried up and I just used it for 2 years. Now, I switch to iPhone 15 pro because the price of flagship Samsung phone is just slightly lower than iPhone.
One reason why I switched from Samsung to iPhone are apps, the Face ID , iCloud, Apple Music, its camera being better than Samsung’s camera in my eyes, better battery optimization, Magsafe, better built-in speaker that I don’t need external speaker to sound good when I am alone at home, Airpods that have user-friendly controls and very fast connectivity. Samsung on the other hand has issue pf “moisture “ in their port.
the price of a brand new Samsung phones and iPhone are almost the same in our country unlike before where the price have a huge price difference and i can say that i have been using iPhone and the performance and the speed don't have any problem unlike using Samsung phone before... it slows down thru time....and even the battery :(
I used to own an iphone but it restricted me to customize a few things of what i want to do and also u have to buy a new phone when your phone doesn't support the updated IOS but now I'm using samsung and i can customize whatever i want and don't need to buy a new phone, i don't have to waste my money to buy a new phone for IOS update so I'm happy.
What do you mean you have to buy a new phone for each iOS update? Apple supports much older phones. Even phones from 2017 are getting the latest update.
the reason i avoid iphone is because the security system which is irony, as a gamer android is more preferable especially if you want to emulating or download from websites.
I’ve only used iPhones since the 4 so I don’t know much about Samsung. I do like that the iPhone syncs with other Apple devices I own. I think an earlier model of Samsung had a better picture quality when I had an iPhone 6 but don’t know about now. They might be similar.
I used to be an Android user and Samsung was my main go-to. The last Samsung I had was Samsung S20+, which developed a green line down its screen. Then our Samsung TV developed lines as well, not too long after that. I was given dismissive answers from Samsung Service Center and got really incensed. It costs nearly as much as a new phone to fix the screen, and my warranty had just expired one month before it developed the line. Ever since then, I swear NEVER to buy another Samsung. I switched to Apple for my phone, got an iPad and love the connectivity and the ecosystem they have going on. My TV is now Xiaomi. It's miles better than Samsung and so far there's no problem with both the phone and TV. Apple is just a better made product compared to Samsung. I'm sure they have their duds too and Apple's battery does deteriorate quite fast but that's also the case with all gadgets with batteries. So for me personally, it's not the trend and whatnot, but the entire experience of using Apple products. You just know that it works at the end of the day, and works well.
I had a similar experience but in the reverse. I had a very bad experience with Apple's customer service abt an issue with my account so I vowed never to buy an iPhone, much less an Apple product, ever again. My siblings, however, have iPhones but I don't care. I will stick to my principles instead.
Y'all are acting as if one malfunctioning product is proof the company is bad. I had Samsung phones and TVs for a long time and they never failed me. Stop acting like babies!
@@techraptor4947 Sure. Whatever rocks your boat. Doesn't mean people need to subscribe to your way of thinking, and it certainly doesn't make us babies. I wasn't crying about it. I just took my money elsewhere and shared my experience. Is that called acting like babies? If so, it must be interesting when someone talks to you and you don't even care to listen to what others have to say without making it about you.
I feel like Northeast Asian people have similar obsessions. young people in countries like South Korea, china, and Japan are materialistic, they care too much of status symbol, they would starve themselves to save money to buy luxury brand products.
The biggest problem of Samsung phones aside from no iOS which is secured and private, no app store full of developer-supported apps....is that it's not an iPhone. If it's not an iPhone, then it's not an iPhone😂😂😂😂😂
I use both phones. Iphone 14 pro and samsung s24 Samsung is the best phone today by far. Android is better than IOS today. I think people who use both phones will agree.
It's because Apple is really good in marketing, making people think that you're in with the trend if you're an iphone user. Teens easily gets swayed by that specially when they see celebrities using iPhones. It's happening in my country too. Most teens are dreaming to get an iPhone even if they don't have practical use for it or can't even afford it.
in fact, almost parent give kids cheap samsung devices. and young people love camera and gaming. but cheap samsung devices not good for that. so samsung must sell galaxy a series and cheap model to good ap. this one give them good experience
Yeah these young people's impression of Andriod phones are cheap phones. They have never tried the top of the line flagship Andriod phones before. Hence they never know how good Android phones have become
I m from India. I was an iPhone user for 3 yrs but last year I switched to Samsung S23. Its a fantastic device. I think OneUI is much better than iOS. iPhones work best in Apple ecosystem but its a trap and very difficult to get away. So I have decided to stay away from Apple.
Not really surprising that their reason to stick with iPhone is due to what others are doing. It's the same in Japan. It's a shame because you can do lots of better things in a Samsung Galaxy. My experience with iOS is very limiting, you don't really have much freedom to customize your phone.
Iphone is no longer status symbol remained in India now since Apple started manufacturing phone in India. With hefty discounts an greater exchange value people preference Apple ove anything.
@雪花冰玉-xuehuabingyu I live in India and I have a western toilet with a Jet spray built into it. It's a 60 sqft bathroom, when you come to India come to my home. I will show the beauty of it plus how my bathroom is 4 times the size of a Hong Kong house :) 😀
@@supremepower3901 Nice to know you have a nice bathroom. If I go to India, I'll make sure I'll come to your home. 😁😁😁 Btw, I'm not living or never lived in Hong Kong, so, I don't really know the size of their apartment. But I heard that Hong Kong's apartments are small. But generally, the concept of apartments is if you give more money, you'll get larger apartment. So, not really a fault to point out. Here in Myanmar, we do have a small apartment too. Larger apartments come with high price.
I have a question ❓ They all are students and must be studying some kind of course in respective colleges then why they need a expensive phone like apple for their daily need. I mean they can buy other cheap android phones for $250 or less that works perfectly fine for chatting and calling. What's the point of buying this phone ? Don't tell me camera is the reason.
This is the point. I mean except for the fact that your income is extremely high and you don't have any place to put your money, basically, you have some other important things to spend money on. Why would you buy expensive mobiles? You should save some money to use on the important things.
I'm honestly shocked about Apple phones love with Koreans. This is why Samsung is selling in bulk in India. India is always the best market for Samsung if not the iphone
I prefer Samsung. Already had iPhone but it did not conquer me. I changed back to Samsung. In my opinion , Apple's safety/security system is an undeniable strong point that beats Samsung or any other brand. If Samsung would work on improving this, it would then become a stronger Apple competitor.
My Galaxy Phone and Tab beat the Ipad and Iphones of my classmates. They simply cant do screenmirroring at our campus without my devices, I told them to throw their garbages and buy Galaxy instead, they cant even use their devices for presentations, how sad.
me who uses iphone coz my gf tells me to , find my location so we can locate each other , imessage coz its better than messenger , iphones can be used for a few years and still getting updates , android vs ios its a no brainer debate buy what caters your needs
didnt even know that messenger was even used on androids.....always thought everyone switched to whatsapp,telegram and else ( depending the country) ....
Hope Samsung don't being too lazy next year, please don't launch 'same' phone every year like Apple. For the sake of Samsung hard core fans (outside of Korea), please change! (Errr anybody can tell this to Mr Lee Jae Yong? ...lol)
I’ve seen using apple products since I was 8 when the iPhone 3 came out. I like the simplicity of the iphone overall. But honestly now I have an iPhone, Apple Watch and MacBook Air that are all connected.
The thing is Samsung became a crappy company. They kept taking features away that made me but their phones like SD card and some features in settings. Whats the point of buying an Android if its so restrictive?? At least with iPhone they build their own OS and is way more stable and reliable.

First of all, Samsung's foldables are sick! That said, it's interesting watching Korean youth starting to choose Apple. I almost expected it since Apple is often equated with luxury. And Koreans are the #1 consumers of luxury brands in the world. Apple has made quite some headway in Samsung's home market. The danger for Samusng is when teenagers and young people start using Apple, they'll continue to use it into adulthood. But... in South Korea, everything else is Samsung so there's that. loll...
What sent it into overdrive was the 7th generation of the Samsung Note had fire and explosion issues which made many ppl switch. Samsung still dominates ¾ of phone sales but among the youth, it's trendy and widespread
Apple doesn't need to sell anything else in Korea, IPhones are more than enough. They only mostly sell phones are richest company in the world
LG better than shitsung. 😂
thanks samsung employee
@@MuscularMan008 Cope more 😂😹😹
The very thing that would bring any society down is being overly materialistic, trying too hard to please others, and patronizing those who don’t share the same values. No wonder I see more modest Koreans and Japanese emigrating to other places where such values are not prevalent.
It doesn't matter which phone you use, but majority of korean youth having iphone clearly a sign of (west obsession)
No different than wearing NYC, SF Warriors or LA Dodgers gears.
kinda like the army craze in the states
Absolutely
That's it, I think South Koreans have obsession towards the West. Every western trend and product become a thing in South Korea
Apple is a status symbol, not only in Korea, all around the world, I’m Brazilian, we often have the most expansive iPhones on the planet, there’s people here that pay their iPhones in 24 installments, using 3 different cards, just so they can show off their “richness”, and social media content creation in 🇧🇷 is huge, and in that area you can’t go with anything else than an iPhone.
To use 3 credit cards and 24 mths installments to pay for a phone is stupid beyond words
Of course they'll prefer iPhone. SK is very materialistic, and alot of Apples marketing is around being a status symbol, that's why they can afford to not innovate and people will still waste their money on the new shiny one each year. Personally, if you're not really a tech person, I can see the appeal for the iPhone, it's much simpler and they basically tailored the experience for you, you play within their box that they set for you.
Luxury isn't really a big factor, Samsung in S.Korea sells their phones with no actual promotions happening since theres no competitor for them in the Android market. If you want to buy a Galaxy in Korea you have to buy it with full price. There's no Pixel, Huawei, Sony, One-plus, etc in the Korean smartphone market. Why'd you buy a Samsung phone with a full price that'll probably have a discount in other countries when you can buy an iPhone that has the same price for nearly every other country? If they charge the same price as an iPhone I'd rather buy an iPhone.
The secondary market for Samsung and Android phones in 🇰🇷 is popular also. You can get refurbished or second-hand📱 in almost new condition for half the price.
@@rௐண yeah, one of the reasons why iPhones are so popular too, the price drop from buying a new one to selling it second hand is way less than doing the same thing on a Samsung phone
I just bought an iphone since lg left the market.
I was galaxy user, I got so bored with galaxy so I moved to the iPhone, other problem is no another brand to buy other than Samsung or apple which sucks
The iPhone is costly outside of us
I am an Indian and samsung is my fav and i am waiting for S25 ultra
most commenters that supports android wont buy new android anyway. more like wish
You cannot buy it no money
No one asked
Most indian also use iphone in 2024
Did you say "indian"🫵🏻🫵🏻🫵🏻. India loved Android
I don’t have a preference. I personally have a Samsung (s21 ultra) and iPad Air and a windows laptop. From my work I have a iPhone SE and a MacBook. Apple is better with intergrading there products but Samsung is just more innovative and open what I personally like a lot. I love things like custom Roms and theming. Apple is just more restricted In those things. For security they are about the same.
Most of the south Asian countries iPhone is a status symbol 😊
Man that is the same condition here in India where iPhones are considered as status symbol.
That's funny, because I've been using Apple products from before they launched the iPhone, but I've been thinking of switching because the Samsung camera/lens seems superior from all the images I've seen.
Samsung has this “filter” embedded into its phones. Personally think iphone is more color neutral in terms of camera

Yes it is.
Just because it's trends doesn't mean it has no quality. iOS device can run smoothly long years after than any samsung devices.
@@randomvideos3187
An S20 still performs smoothly, so it's not just Apple. That's a myth by this point.
@@marcioamaral7511 He never said Samsung devices can’t run smoothly, he specifically said that iOS devices can run smoothly LONG YEARS AFTER than any Samsung devices, which is true. Apple has a great history of older iPhones lasting a very long time by still getting the latest iOS updates after long years, and still performing smoothly. I can confirm this since I still use my iPhone XR from 2018 still till this day and it’s still getting the latest iOS updates for at least 7 years now. Another thing is Apple still releases security updates to even older iPhones, even years after they last got a new iOS update. It’s not a myth, it’s a fact.
@@marcioamaral7511s20 and smooth.. nice joke
The real reason many young Koreans prefer iPhones because older Koreans prefer Samsung. Young generation tend not to use the same thing as older generation do, unless you have no other options.
it’s the interface it’s so simple modern and easy to use iphone is definitely the way to go
Samsung is a great Korean company, much prefer their devices

Apple market share in India is also increasing, very concerning for brands like Samsung
The answer is quite simple : iPhones are better than Samsung and other androids in every way. Scamsung and other androids come with lots of flashy features, none of which work properly and all of which are buggy. Not the case with an iPhone. Ofcourse the android sheep will say we simply buy iPhones to show off, but look at your own android phones lol. They’re just as expensive as iPhones and yet they perform like shyit. That is why we choose iPhones. Because we prefer quality over flashy features and “customising” our phones like a toddler’s drawing book.
I have a Xiaomi phone and it's not as expensive as iPhone. And I can call, text, and use Internet like iPhone. For daily use, it doesn't have any problem. Plus, I saved some money to use on some other important things.
@@雪花冰玉-xuehuabingyu LoL you're speaking facts, definitely a slipper slap in the face for iSheep abhishek🩴😆
My 5 year old cheap 20K INR (250$) Realme X2 works fine even after gaming CODM on it everyday meanwhile iPhone users will cry that they got green/white screen issue, decreased performance & battery capacity right after 1 year when new iPhone model release (planned obsolescence by greedy Apple)
Abhishek you're just delusional, you're stance may be correct like before 6-8 years but now android phones too have well polished software experience. It's very clear that you just blindly support Apple & blame android to be buggy without experiencing it's features. I love to customize a lot during early years of my Android usage but now I just use 1 or 2 customized features but that doesn't mean I need an iPhone. I might not need that feature but someone else will need those features. It's better to have something than nothing right?😃I like iPhone for their simplicity and iOS UI/UX but iPhones for the last 5 years suffers serious quality issues which hinders the longevity of usage. I won't invest in anything that's expensive but not lasting long.
@@gokultn72 anybody who says “android phones have well polished software” deserves to be made the poster boy for delusional. My stance was correct years ago, it is correct now, and it will be correct several years from now unless android somehow redesigns their entire architecture. But until then, all of you android sheep are welcome to keep complaining about how iPhone doesn’t do this or doesn’t do that. In the meantime, I’ll take my stable and bug-devoid iPhone any day.
More like a status symbol to some like a Prada, Channel or Gucci bag. It's not just Koreans prefer Apple over Samsung in terms of phones or tablets it's also very similar to how some people prefers to drive an Audi or a BMW or a Porsche rather than a Kia or a Hyundai eventhough they have both good qualities. That's not to day that Apple is superior over Samsung or the other way. It's just a matter of preference over the other.
15 series switch to usb c was a game changer and probably why it sells so good like people are anticipating it so much
My reason for switching to Iphone was the quality hardware and software. Also with android devices before you upgrade there a waay too many devices out there. Meaning in one way or another you will be disappointed in a feature on your android. Apple has limited device options, all of the options are solid devices. Plus the software and hardware feels a bit more safer than android’s.
android give u choice for your phone: flip,fold, sd-card,jack , maxi , mini, max zoom, cheap, super cheap, shutter button, super expensive, now tri fold, AI, no AI, pen or not.
Apple is more like a ford T, one phone for everyone but u dont get to choose what u want/need (but color and capacity at a high price), u cant customize it much(well, now u can in iOs18) but he has long years updates unlike most android phones ( but samsung and pixel, i think, 7years).
if u r not in a country with a huger Apple market share (>40%), noone will use iMessage, facetime and airdrop ( i would say only japan,USA,canada and may be korea now would use those apps) ....killing the specificities of Iphones (but if u have an Apple set up workstation/tablet/buds/phone or relatives with them eventually)
The reason is simple most people dont consider or prefer their own brands and etc so they prefer foreign brand which is best .If they are from Korea then mostly Iphone if they are from US then Samsung !
But 90% of Americans only use iPhone
It just that Korea already so much developed technology advanced from long long ago .
Here having an iPhone is a flex. I feel like it's more about showing of rather than it's use and what's more my country doesn't even have any official Apple stores. The sellers import them illegally. Also too bad that they don't prioritize their own country's brand. I've been dying to buy a Samsung phone
“Experience is everything. No matter what a company says, it’s the customer experience that speaks the loudest.”
As expected.
iPhone is the best for social media and has the best video camera of any smartphone.
They have the best social media optimization but when it comes of camera both pixels and xperia win, sony makes their cameras. Their video recording quality still the best tho
In Indonesia, even if you have iPhone 11, you're well welcome among society. If you have even S23, no one will even notice..
I used to use only Samsung phones until I saw the Vice documentary about Samsung employing high school graduates to make electrical components without hazmat gear. 20yr olds dying from cancer in the 2000s and Samsung only settled in 2018😞 Ruthless for mere millions split between hundreds of families.. smh
It's worse with apple. Welcome to the real world
Apple is not without fault either. Multiple deaths/suicides have occurred at Foxconn Apple’s manufacturing sweatshop in China since 2010. Most recently they have been accused of human rights violations that includes child labor. This information makes Apple just as “ruthless” as Samsung, putting millions of dollars over the safety of people. As morally wrong the Samsung case is no company is without scandal. The only way to avoid it is to not buy anything.
What makes you think Apple or any other brand doesn't do the same?
@@MysteriousStranger08 😂😂😂 Receipts? Or just another dumbass talking shit
Apple outsources its manufacturing sector of their supply chain to primarily South-East Asian markets, paying below minimum wage, long working hours and squalid conditions. It basically comes down to _picking your poison_
Korea has alot of money and like other countries. Imports are trendy. Like Germany, their taxis are BMW. If you have an imported phone, car, jersey... accent. I dont know if they have it in Korea. There was a PC mall was a multi-layer apple store.
Samsung's Exynos chip started everything...
Rise in popularity also has to do with South Korea's taste for luxury goods. What Apple has done with the iPhone is that it transcends functionality and has become a luxury product. It's not that the iPhone is objectively better in every category, though it does excel in a lot of areas that customers love like the ecosystem, it has been elevated above the price sensitive market into the luxury market where people are willing to pay for the brand. Which leaves other brands like Samsung fight for the bottom and Apple getting more affluent customers, those are the principles of a luxury brand.
I used to have an iPhone until I got tired of not being able to transfer files to the company PC
Correction of thumbnail should be : How to promote stupid fruit company 😏
I always used Samsung devices since I was in highscool because it's cheap and reliable for me. In 2021, I got a Samsung Note 20 ultra, but it eventually broken without any reason. I took it to the store and they said the motherboard is fried up and I just used it for 2 years. Now, I switch to iPhone 15 pro because the price of flagship Samsung phone is just slightly lower than iPhone.
It’s a better phone?
That would be a nightmare for Samsung, losing it's position in it's own homeland
One reason why I switched from Samsung to iPhone are apps, the Face ID , iCloud, Apple Music, its camera being better than Samsung’s camera in my eyes, better battery optimization, Magsafe, better built-in speaker that I don’t need external speaker to sound good when I am alone at home, Airpods that have user-friendly controls and very fast connectivity.
Samsung on the other hand has issue pf “moisture “ in their port.
the price of a brand new Samsung phones and iPhone are almost the same in our country unlike before where the price have a huge price difference and i can say that i have been using iPhone and the performance and the speed don't have any problem unlike using Samsung phone before... it slows down thru time....and even the battery :(
Not really lol. Too much po*n?
I used to own an iphone but it restricted me to customize a few things of what i want to do and also u have to buy a new phone when your phone doesn't support the updated IOS but now I'm using samsung and i can customize whatever i want and don't need to buy a new phone, i don't have to waste my money to buy a new phone for IOS update so I'm happy.
What do you mean you have to buy a new phone for each iOS update? Apple supports much older phones. Even phones from 2017 are getting the latest update.
There always one guy in the group with a Samsung Galaxy
the reason i avoid iphone is because the security system which is irony, as a gamer android is more preferable especially if you want to emulating or download from websites.
In india it's to get attention rather than practical use 😅
Apple Ecosystem one of the reason
It's crazy how these people loves iphone despite being more mediocre every passing year.
The Iphone is a status symbol worldwide.
I’m Korean and have used the iPhone for over 20 years and have thought of switching over to Samsung for the first time 😄
I'm from Madagascar 🇲🇬 but I prefer apple Iphone and Samsun 🇺🇲🇰🇷
I’ve only used iPhones since the 4 so I don’t know much about Samsung. I do like that the iPhone syncs with other Apple devices I own. I think an earlier model of Samsung had a better picture quality when I had an iPhone 6 but don’t know about now. They might be similar.
I used to be an Android user and Samsung was my main go-to. The last Samsung I had was Samsung S20+, which developed a green line down its screen. Then our Samsung TV developed lines as well, not too long after that. I was given dismissive answers from Samsung Service Center and got really incensed. It costs nearly as much as a new phone to fix the screen, and my warranty had just expired one month before it developed the line. Ever since then, I swear NEVER to buy another Samsung. I switched to Apple for my phone, got an iPad and love the connectivity and the ecosystem they have going on. My TV is now Xiaomi. It's miles better than Samsung and so far there's no problem with both the phone and TV. Apple is just a better made product compared to Samsung. I'm sure they have their duds too and Apple's battery does deteriorate quite fast but that's also the case with all gadgets with batteries. So for me personally, it's not the trend and whatnot, but the entire experience of using Apple products. You just know that it works at the end of the day, and works well.
I had a similar experience but in the reverse. I had a very bad experience with Apple's customer service abt an issue with my account so I vowed never to buy an iPhone, much less an Apple product, ever again. My siblings, however, have iPhones but I don't care. I will stick to my principles instead.
Well, they’re conglomerates, why would they improve when you have a duopoly on the phone market 😅
My S22U now has a greenline. Will now be switching to iphone16 but torn between white and desert
Y'all are acting as if one malfunctioning product is proof the company is bad. I had Samsung phones and TVs for a long time and they never failed me. Stop acting like babies!
@@techraptor4947 Sure. Whatever rocks your boat. Doesn't mean people need to subscribe to your way of thinking, and it certainly doesn't make us babies. I wasn't crying about it. I just took my money elsewhere and shared my experience. Is that called acting like babies? If so, it must be interesting when someone talks to you and you don't even care to listen to what others have to say without making it about you.
I already use Realme GT5 Pro with Snapdragon Gen 3 which is the same processor as Samsung S24 Ultra but with a cheap price of 500$ for 1Tb/16GB.

I feel like Northeast Asian people have similar obsessions. young people in countries like South Korea, china, and Japan are materialistic, they care too much of status symbol, they would starve themselves to save money to buy luxury brand products.
The biggest problem of Samsung phones aside from no iOS which is secured and private, no app store full of developer-supported apps....is that it's not an iPhone.
If it's not an iPhone, then it's not an iPhone😂😂😂😂😂
Cause ios is far more reliable simple i was android user switched to iphone not going back
I’ll tell you it’s because iPhone films better tik toks and insta pics that’s it 😂😅

Coz its mindless consumerism. There are other brands out there worth considering as well but i guess they will never ever know
As a young Canadian, I prefer samsung over apple
It's because Apple is really good in marketing, making people think that you're in with the trend if you're an iphone user. Teens easily gets swayed by that specially when they see celebrities using iPhones. It's happening in my country too. Most teens are dreaming to get an iPhone even if they don't have practical use for it or can't even afford it.
in fact, almost parent give kids cheap samsung devices. and young people love camera and gaming. but cheap samsung devices not good for that. so samsung must sell galaxy a series and cheap model to good ap. this one give them good experience
Yeah these young people's impression of Andriod phones are cheap phones. They have never tried the top of the line flagship Andriod phones before. Hence they never know how good Android phones have become
I m from India. I was an iPhone user for 3 yrs but last year I switched to Samsung S23. Its a fantastic device. I think OneUI is much better than iOS. iPhones work best in Apple ecosystem but its a trap and very difficult to get away. So I have decided to stay away from Apple.
INDIAN AREN'T FAR AWAY ON THAT NOTE 😂😂😂THEY BUY IPHONES WITH LOAN BANK EMI 😂😂😂
Cant decide so I use both 😂
You're my type😂 it depends on usage or purpose
Not really surprising that their reason to stick with iPhone is due to what others are doing. It's the same in Japan. It's a shame because you can do lots of better things in a Samsung Galaxy. My experience with iOS is very limiting, you don't really have much freedom to customize your phone.
Iphone is no longer status symbol remained in India now since Apple started manufacturing phone in India.
With hefty discounts an greater exchange value people preference Apple ove anything.
Thanks to Kpop Idols, Koreans more prefer iphones
Yes koreans are too luxury obsessed and status symbol obsessed . They are biased people who do discrimination based on phones.

I have a question ❓
They all are students and must be studying some kind of course in respective colleges then why they need a expensive phone like apple for their daily need. I mean they can buy other cheap android phones for $250 or less that works perfectly fine for chatting and calling. What's the point of buying this phone ?
Don't tell me camera is the reason.
This is the point. I mean except for the fact that your income is extremely high and you don't have any place to put your money, basically, you have some other important things to spend money on. Why would you buy expensive mobiles? You should save some money to use on the important things.
I'm honestly shocked about Apple phones love with Koreans. This is why Samsung is selling in bulk in India. India is always the best market for Samsung if not the iphone
Galaxy Flip 4🔥🔥😎
Even in Cambodia, average people are using apple products so much
Samsung has always look basics compare to Apple 😂
iPhone just feels smooth and looks nicer overall
I prefer Samsung. Already had iPhone but it did not conquer me. I changed back to Samsung.
In my opinion , Apple's safety/security system is an undeniable strong point that beats Samsung or any other brand. If Samsung would work on improving this, it would then become a stronger Apple competitor.
Basic knowledge koreans preffer iphones we all know camera and video is best over samsung that's it, koreans loves to picture and video
Yeah I tried Apple through the years and I always go back to Samsung, More for Less!!
Android is for power users while iPhone is for basic people.
Because youngsters dont want green lines on their display
My Galaxy Phone and Tab beat the Ipad and Iphones of my classmates. They simply cant do screenmirroring at our campus without my devices, I told them to throw their garbages and buy Galaxy instead, they cant even use their devices for presentations, how sad.
Huh?? Definitely bias comment
We call them CHAPRII in India
me who uses iphone coz my gf tells me to , find my location so we can locate each other , imessage coz its better than messenger
, iphones can be used for a few years and still getting updates , android vs ios its a no brainer debate buy what caters your needs
didnt even know that messenger was even used on androids.....always thought everyone switched to whatsapp,telegram and else ( depending the country) ....
Hope Samsung don't being too lazy next year, please don't launch 'same' phone every year like Apple. For the sake of Samsung hard core fans (outside of Korea), please change! (Errr anybody can tell this to Mr Lee Jae Yong? ...lol)
Smartphone brand is the new religion 🤣
I’ve seen using apple products since I was 8 when the iPhone 3 came out. I like the simplicity of the iphone overall. But honestly now I have an iPhone, Apple Watch and MacBook Air that are all connected.
Doesn't samsung technically run korea? How did apple get so popular in korea instead of samsung?
Because iPhone is considered to be luxury brand. Your status goes higher if you use iPhone. Those people who think like this are idiots. 🤣🤣🤣
The thing is Samsung became a crappy company. They kept taking features away that made me but their
phones like SD card and some features in settings. Whats the point of buying an Android if its so restrictive??
At least with iPhone they build their own OS and is way more stable and reliable.
