1- The first information
Samsung was founded in 1938, while
Apple was founded in 1977, meaning that Samsung was founded 40 years before
Apple. Also, perhaps it is strange to hear that Samsung, in the beginning, was
not a Samsung phone or electronics company founded by a Korean farmer named Lee
Byung-Chul. The company at that time specialized in selling seafood and not
only that, but it was also manufacturing and packing vegetables and fruits and
exporting them to many Asian countries. One of the most important of these
countries is China, and there was a noodle factory for the company and it had
40 employees, but it quickly jumped into the world of technology and everyone
knew the name Samsung by the way, the meaning of the name Samsung is three
stars in the Korean language and its founder said that he chose this name for a
certain reason, which is that he wants the company to always remain Forever
shiny as the stars
2- The second
information
Samsung doesn't just make phones, televisions,
and computers. Samsung is a company that has ten hands Yes, as I heard, it is called the “Empire of
Samsung”
There are about 80 companies under the Samsung
name. Companies specializing in construction and others in fashion, hospitality,
engineering, construction, finance, and chemical industries, and the list goes
on until it is they who designed the first KF-16 aircraft.
And this plane is among the squadron of
aircraft for the Korean Air Force and also manufactures ships. Yes, it
manufactures about 30 gigantic ships every year.
By the way, you know, Burj Khalifa, the tallest
tower in the world. Samsung Engineering and Construction Company had a major
role in building the Burj Khalifa in Dubai, as Samsung was the main contractor
in the implementation of this tower.

3- The third
information
One of the strange situations that happened in
the history of the company is that in the year 1995. The CEO discovered that
the quality of the products was not good at all and he did not like it, and it
was precisely 150 thousand devices. Various poor quality. So the manager Lee at
that time collected all those devices and ordered all of them to be placed in a
grinding machine. About 150,000 devices worth millions were destroyed, and he
did this in front of the eyes of about 2000 employees to give them a lesson for
the company, which is the quality of the products that put Samsung in its
current global position
Perhaps this explains another fact, which is
that large numbers of international companies buy parts of their phones. And
manufacturing them in different factories and then assembling them to sell
them, but Samsung has a completely different plan, as it manufactures almost
90% of the parts and parts of its products completely in its factories to
ensure the high quality of the products. As for Apple, most parts of its phones
are assembled and manufactured in China, but this of course does not negate the
quality of Apple devices
4- The fourth
information
Although Apple is a giant company and despite
the fierce competition between it and Samsung. However, officially Samsung has
the largest number of patents in the field of information technology. More than
any other company in the world, with 7,670 patents. You might even be surprised
if I told you that even the memory card that is in the iPhone phones is
manufactured by Samsung and therefore about 70% of the phones around the world
use memory cards manufactured by Samsung, so maybe your device, whatever it
was, contains even one Samsung technology
Also, to learn the power of Samsung in the
world of technology, one phone out of three phones is sold around the world
every day. To have a Samsung phone means that it controls 30 percent of the
global smartphone market, nearly a third
And it is only in recent years that Samsung has
continued to climb in the market in a particularly crazy way. An example is the
Galaxy S3 when it was released, and its sales reached 500 devices per minute,
meaning approximately 8 devices were sold every second. Its profits reached
more than $ 188 billion in 2012. And many experts say that this number will
double in the year 2020, approximately a year and a half from now.

5- The fifth information
Samsung Corporation
has approximately 60,000 employees working in the research and development
sector only. In other words, almost the entire city has only employees, so
imagine that Samsung spends only one year. Almost $ 11 billion in the company's
research and development sector. To always get out to the world with new
electronic technologies, and this amount is almost considered a budget for some
countries, and with this, the research and development sector takes six percent
of all profits
As for the number of
employees, one of the specialized bodies in the classification and evaluation
of the performance of international companies. Statistical work at the end of
2013 on the number of employees working in the technology companies controlling
the market. In this study or statistics, Samsung dominated the first place with
the number of employees estimated at 275,133, or nearly a quarter of a million.
Employee is greater than the number of soldiers in the Dutch army, 51,200
soldiers. And there are 178,171 soldiers in the German army combined (February
29, 2016).
6- The sixth information
2016 has been a bleak black year for
Samsung. You heard the news of the Note 7 explosion that people even posted
satirical posts about it. On Facebook at that time, because of this incident,
Sasomong faced many issues related to the quality of batteries, which caused
damage to personalities and property around the world.
In the United States alone, 100 Note 7 devices
exploded and burned their batteries. The US Consumer Product Safety Commission
has directed to take back all devices, "Galaxy Note 7". Then a
similar procedure was carried out in Canada and throughout Europe and Asia. It
also stopped charging to areas where the phone had not appeared.
Phones were exploding in people's pockets for
no reason. Or they hold the phone in their hand, which showed many people
around the world. The casualties of this matter will make the major airlines in
the world. It is strictly prohibited for anyone with a Note 7 to enter the
plane
Well, nowhere is
the reason why I switched from Samsung to iPhone
I have been using Samsung for about five or six
years, but only 11 months ago I went to Apple, and there were two reasons. The
first reason is that the iPhone from the iPhone 5 and below were all frankly
bad, and their designs for me were very miserable and the sizes of the phones
were small compared to the size of Samsung phones But after the iPhone S6 and 6
Plus came out with a great design and a large screen here, the company began to
like me, so I decided to buy the first iPhone directly a month after its
release, which is iPhone 7
The second reason, which is the strongest
reason, and of course everyone admits this, whether those who like Samsung or
others, and it is the protection point in Apple, which has stronger protection
systems than all Android devices, not just Samsung, and the point is that
Android devices are very easy to penetrate if there is a hacker Professional, but
for Apple and iOS the matter is very difficult
Therefore, after long thought, I decided to use
iPhone even though I did not start using it well because I am not used to the
iOS system yet.
