The same reason people ask us why we bought an iPhone over a BlackBerry or similar device.

Which Samsung are we talking about here, anyway?

To be different, just like you did with that font and blue text. It's not necessarily a good thing, it hurts my eyes.

I know a lot of people (mainly younger teens her in the UK) that bought other phones because currently we have to sign up for a minimum 18 month contract, at £35 p/m

Samsung et al, offer £20 p/m contracts on half decent devices that do all the stuff kids want them to do, and on a 12 month contract - or a more affordable pay and go option.

Price for me plays a huge part.
