That's my point, though. It's very hard to compete year after year in the flagship space. One company that is doing arguably the second best job of making flagship Android phones is HTC, and even they can't make money at it. If the 2nd place flagship maker of the top platform can't make money, how will even the first tier flagship maker of the distant 3rd platform have any room for profit?
Well, OK. But I think that they're not really making a top tier flagship anymore, compared to other more recent competitors. And it looks like maybe they don't want to stay in this business. Still, your point is taken.
