Apple and Samsung phones are looking more alike over the past few years in camera, size, and availability. I still think Samsung phones are better because they have amoled screens which makes the screen colors more vivid.

I don't understand why Apple won't help the FBI hack into an iPhone. The owner of the phone is a criminal and he could have vital info on the phone about future attacks or could have info about other terrorists if he was talking to any.

i think its crazy about the whole apple going against the FBI. they are trying to protect their customers privacy. but a lot of peoples backlash about this brings out a different position on the subject. they talk about people that are murderers and pedophiles that may keep pictures or other incriminating evidence. it makes it seem like apple is protecting the wrong sides.

Am starting to firmly believe that Apple as well as the other tech companies need to comply with the FBI request to 'hack' into the terrorist's or any other criminal's iPhone. American technology is allowing crime to proliferate. It's just not right!

Doesn't seem like the Samsung is any advance, especially at $776/

The nightmare of having tech command a vehicle is that it could get hacked, as in this case, it is!

i think apple should help them but just for the phones that have been in a crime

The Government believes that the encryption is for the victims from the San Berdino shooting. The FBI said that " We owe them a thorough and professional investigation under law.The only reason why Apple is objecting to this is because the government would have Apple write a new operating system that would let the government unlock iphones from a computer to investigate any other terrorist' or criminal activity. Apple is still refusing to cooperate with the FBI because of their operating system and the right to everyone's privacy because everyone has their own personal things in their phones.I personally think people should be entitled to their own privacy so the Government should only check those phones who have gone through criminal activity.

i think phones are important just to call and text i rather buy a computer than a phone. All phones are trying to copy apple phones.

Samsung has my attention again and it’s finally making something that might be worth buying.
