Samsung has the equivalent of the Genius Bar in the US - the Samsung rep at Best Buy. Your carrier, if they have a good tech department, also knows the phones they sell.

But the entire situation is different. Apple makes the hardware, Apple makes the software, Apple maintains the stores and Apple makes all the decisions. If you like that, stick with Apple. Android is just a program that runs on Linus, and can run apps. Many manufacturers make phone, and each one has its own rules and its own policy (and its own software - Lollipop for the Motorola Turbo isn't the same code as Lollipop for the Samsung S6. iOS is iOS - there isn't a different version for each model phone.

(Then again, anyone [who has the knowledge and experience] can write an Android app. Apple only allows certain apps to be available for their phones.)

Why do you need a Genius Bar when you have us?

Android already holds >80% of mobile OS market. Device support is provided by hardware manufacturers. Software support is provided by the great community and is much better than what Apple Stores geniuses can offer. We don't want to pay double price for a limited functionality product. No Google Stores needed.

I don't think the genius bar is all the helpful, I've gone in several times for the Macbook Air and they never fixed the software issue i was having.
