Comparing against the median means you've already thoroughly missed the point.

How much better is Apple hardware compared to the median? I don’t really think the iPhone is better than most Chinese brand phones. It charges slower and doesn’t have the latest battery technology. Most of what it makes it better than the competition is the software.

This angel’s halo around Apple was always a marketing illusion. They make above average hardware and above average software. Nothing more, nothing less.

Is that why the Chinese phones have a 7000ah-9000ah battery? and most of Apple’s phones have a 4900ah-5400ah battery?
