Samsung has just edged past the iPhone in consumer perception in the US following a series of ads that mocks the iPhone and its fans, reports YouGov.
YouGov BrandIndex measurement scores range from 100 to -100 and are compiled by subtracting negative feedback from positive. A zero score means equal positive and negative feedback.
The iPhone's buzz score began sinking around November 28, with a buzz score of 33 - the current score is 25. Samsung, whose buzz score was 19 compared to the iPhone's 29 on October 3rd, is now at 26.

Apple has about 2 maybe 3 years with decent devices and then it is done, it is now a case on who takes over and it currently looks like Android is it

I had every single iPhone that came out (2g, 3g, 3gs, 4) and was using it with T-Mobile. Every time I got an Android phone as an upgrade with T-Mobile, I ended up selling it on eBay (G2, HD2, HTC, Galaxy S, G2X). And I was going to do the same thing with the Galaxy S 2, but this phone is amazing. It is fast and most importantly, battery life is good, not as good as iPhone, but let's say 82%-88% compared to iPhone's 100%. I am stress free now with all the unlocking and jailbreaking I have been through for 5 years.
