Well, if you decide to not go for Apple, either because you can't afford it, or you simply don't like Apple, there are few non Chinese options, so Samsung wins a lot of people over by that alone, also they have a ton of options in their lineup, which do offer great hardware for the prices they charge, and with long term OS support, something most brands besides Apple fail to do.
