Isn't Samsung committing highway robbery by charging $100 for 32gb of memory? (or $200 for 96gb)
Yes, I know Apple already does it, bu does Samsung have to copy it?

The s6,at least on my carrier, starts $50 cheaper full retail than the iPhone 6, and the base s6 has twice the internal memory of the base iPhone 6.I was quite disappointed about the cost. I thought it would be fairer to make the 64gb $70 more, considering Apple is charging $100 for 48gb more whereas Samsung is charging $100 for only 32gb more. Part of this is the carrier -- for instance, the way Sprint's pricing goes for their installment program, it's actually $120 for memory upgrades and the Edge model. That's terrible.

it's not highway robbery when people willingly pay for it ... and does Samsung have to copy Apple? Samsung has an obligation to their shareholders to increase revenue. If following Apple's storage model achieves that, of course without alienating future consumers, than yes, Samsung does have to copy it. Samsung is in business to make money, just like everyone else.
Yes Verizon.Which carrier is that? Verizon?

true.... consumers vote with their credit cards. a ton of people b*tch about the S6's lack of SD card and removable battery. Let's how Samsung does with the S6.
they're gonna sell em by the tens of millions. as important as SD cards and removable batteries are to you and I, 95% of the 80 million devices samsung will sell this year, the people wouldn't know what to do with an SD card if it landed on their lap.
if you're (not you specifically) are a 20 year old guy, it might seem like everyone uses em cause a lot of your friends probably do. but that's not close to the majority of consumers, who stroll into the carrier's store and look for a cool looking, new device with a good camera. quick charge, samsung pay, wireless charging and fingerprint sensor are also good selling points, but SD cards and removable batteries don't appeal to the masses.
Funny how everyone mocks apple for their memory prices but when Samsung does it, it's ok now!
The reason I got myself a Note4 last week instead of a S6 was because of the lack of expandable storage and removable battery. I like my 32gb of base memory and 128gb SD card in it.
