Apple Market Cap = $716.7 billion Google Market Cap = $365.46 billion Micrososft Market Cap = $349.89 billion Rink Lower end phones will never upstage the iphone, apple invests a lot in technology and their corresponding patents so knocking them from the american market is next to impossible that with around $6 billion going into r&d. With around $150 billion in cash reserves, and them diversifying their income sources (mostly music), add to that a crazy following, plus the americans and all the Wannabes - I don't see how a lower end phone from india or china can even come close to being a threat. Nokia and blackberry were once apparently invincible. Look at where they are now! I still don't think its a low end/budget phone that will cause apple to come tumbling dowm - if you look at nokia, then blackberry - it was more to do with new technology kicking them out, they really never adapted and really never innovated well enough in the smartphone era. I think the guys at apple have seen that, thus the massive amount that is being driven into research. Will they remain at the top forever, I don't think so - but I think they are investing in the right areas and they should remain at the top for a considerably longer time.

Making products for the low-end market is what killed Nokia and (currently) Samsung. Apple's strategy in the developed world is one product for everyone such that a senior executive shares the same platform as a lowly student.

Apple is an aspirational brand. There are people who get Apple products for their practicability and reliability yet many more who get for the brand association. This is a brand for people in the lower end to aspire to and if they can't then they were never the target. Think of it like a fashion brand, people will always buy Ferraris and Gucci. BBI will solve it :)
