The Samsung mobile group at the Philippines took to Twitter to mock Apple over the launch of their latest flagship phones, the 4.7″ iPhone 6 model and the 5.5″ iPhone 6 plus model, which both have bigger screen sizes compared to previous models.
They took a jab at Apple reminding them of their former CEO’s famous quote, talking about the late Steve Jobs Saying “No one is ever going to buy a big phone” and then added to the quote, Saying “Guess who surprised themselves and changed their minds” just take a look at the image below.
Big improvements and innovation come with change – even they thought so. #MoreThanBig http://t.co/MN89YMdFMn pic.twitter.com/wubl1QhSEJ

The quote from the late Steve Jobs was said at a press conference back in July 2010 to address issues of the iPhone 4, as he always felt no one would want to buy large screen phones, well it seems Samsung proved his statement wrong with their massive sales in recent times.
Apple has always believed their previous models screen sizes, especially the iPhone 5 were the perfect size up until now. Wonder what made them change their mind, or is Apple losing what they were always known for which has been innovation and creativity?

The new screen sizes adopted by Apple…
absolutely commonNONsensical
How fortunate that the dead can’t eat (their words). #Steve
if Steve Jobs was still alive (and running Apple) we’d not be seeing an iPhone 6+. it’s possible we’d see the 4.7″ iPhone 6 but not the 5.5″ iPhone 6+
That’s why the popular saying “the constant thing in life is change” still holds.
