Apple has enough cash to buy Nokia, RIM and Motorola mobility.
In a few years, only the Chinese phones from Huawei, ZTE and TCL will be able to compete with phones from Samsung and HTC.

Why Apple will buy the companies not profiting and going downward?

Chinese phones cannot compete with Samsung or HTC.  Just one thing, Chinese companies are hardly to compete in high tech industry: IP.

Apple is not buying any of them, but Apple has the cash to buy all of Nokia, RIM and Motorola mobility.
This shows how strong Apple is.

Chinese technology companies are getting strong and stronger. Lenovo has the second largest computer market share in the world.
Huawei and ZTE are already among the world's leaders in telecommunicaton equipment market.
Huawei's move into networking equipment is taking market share away from Cisco. This partly explains why Cisco profits is shrinking.

Huawei and ZTE are already among the world's leaders in telecommunication equipment market. Every time you make a cell phone call to anywhere locally or elsewhere in the world, there is a good chance your call is going through Huawei's equipment.

Apple's success is with the way to distribute the apps (iTunes store)
There are apps for Nokia's Symbian OS too, even back in 2005 but only tech-savvy people were able to find/install them. Apple just made things easier to the mass consumers.

That's the main difference between Chinese and Western.
Western companies will buy other companies if they have potential to profit, not because of the face.  Because the management has to provide the best return for investors.

Chinese companies, sometimes, are not playing the same rules.  They buy companies not just because of business reason.  U know what I mean.


So, I bet you Apple will not buy them. and U think of Steve Jobs, why he has to buy them?   Smart Axx.

And what you said about Lenovo and Huawei, ZTE,, I totally admit they have large market share.
But, you have to look at what has happened:
Lenovo - It was IBM laptop and it was sold to CHinese company..  Why? Because IBM decided that the profit margin of personal computer and laptop will become so small that didn't worth the company's focus.  Thus, IBM focuses on MainFrame super computers and software services.  In recent years, IBM recorded huge profit because they made the right decision.  If they kept the laptop market, I don't think they can do it.  Also, now, laptop market is gonna replaced by tablet.  So... second largest computer market share in a shrinking market means nothing.


Hauwei & ZTE are hardware.  That's totally reflect what China is--- Good at manufacture (hardware) but lack of idea & innovation (software).

Lenovo also has its own tablet computer. All the other computer makers like HP, Dell and Acer, Fujitsu are also facing the same threat from Apple iPad. Therefore, it is surprising that you bashed only Lenovo.
But Lenovo is taking the market share away from HP, Dell and Acer rapidly, with Lenovo becoming the leader in enterprise PC sales.
The Apple iPad is not going to replace the laptop and the PC, for obvious reasons.

Apple's iPad is the market leader now, and the iPad is even taking market share away from its own Apple MacBook laptops and Mac computer. But most people who buy iPad, also still buy laptops.

China is also capable of making some of the world's fastest mainframe and supercomputers, like the Tianhe series and the Dawning supercomputer, using its own Chinese Loongson CPU.

Besides China, other Asian competitors like Japan, Korea and Taiwan, they are good at manufacture (hardware) but not as good yet in software.
Right now, no companies from Japan, Korea or Taiwan can compete with Huawei and ZTE. This shows lack of innovation from Canada, Japan and Korea. They just cannot compete with innovative products from China's Huawei and ZTE.
Even American Cisco and Juniper Networks are losing market share to Huawei and ZTE. This is partly the reason why Cisco and Juniper's profits are shrinking.
