    I think you mean a “Samsung”. Because like 50% of people using Android have no idea that they are.

      I think you mean a “Pixel” because most Samsung customers only care that it’s “Not an iPhone”

        For the past decade or more, people have been asking me if my phone is “iPhone or Samsung”, USB micro/C are referred to as “Samsung charger”, and I’m pretty sure no one knows what a Pixel is, though that may just be because the big carriers don’t offer them where I live.

          That’s pretty disappointing, because Samsung is a terrible company, with a bad UI, and creepy privacy practices.

            Sure, but Samsung has a massive advertising budget, and that’s what is truely important. It means it’s what people know.
