I blame the nuclear radiation affecting girls especially.

They are susceptible to good marketing.

Because it's not KOrean

The Japanese know quality products when they see them.

Then why are they buying iPhones?

the Japanese acknowledge and appreciate design, function, and aesthetics

because gacha games play best on iphone

The Japanese know quality products when they see them.

But they play best on iPhone because most people use iPhones, not the other way around.

The Japanese acknowledge and appreciate design, function, and aesthetics. iPhones are the most sensible choice for the Japanese consumer.

I live in Japan. They would rather die than betray their group think, if the CEO or manager has an iPhone to display their wealth, EVERYONE has an iPhone for the same reason. Also they are basically technologically illiterate. It's only a matter if years before this country goes obselete.

Japan is wagecuck land number one. Of course wagie wants to buy the most expensive phone.

In east asian culture people's self worth is heavily dependant on what other people think of them. It's where the whole "losing face" bullshit comes from. Buying overpriced garbage is a great way to signal how rich you are, and therefore increase your social status.

Because their culture is obsessed with status symbols and Apple is the largest vendor of them.

Interesting. Can you anons elaborate?

Mob cultural. In japan public opinion of you matters too much.
That's why there are many repress feeling and weird porn.
Have you ever worked with japanese? They would say yes to anything. But it's an empty yes, they say yes out of cumpulsion to please society rather than agreement. Then releases are shit vecause you lied with that yes.

>Have you ever worked with japanese?
Yea, but only Japanese that are a few years separated from being in Japan. Maybe 5+ years away from Japan lifestyle, and adapted.

>t. retard

>Have you ever worked with japanese?
Yea. HR hired a guy to be in charge of supplies. He disappeared for two weeks, and was only found after he jumped out from behind the whiteboard and yelled out
>Supplies!
during a conference.

Because Japan is ground zero for conspicuous consumption along with the US. Just look at otaku culture merchandizing.

Coca Cola chose Japan to launch their bid into making alcoholic drinks, and the test run was wildly successful so it'll be in convenience stores everywhere (in Japan) now.

also maybe this

it's not Corean

it's because japs are in love in things that look thin and pretty, and the mac os is also considerable as pretty OS, japs have fucked up taste just like all chinks

and because apple marketing makes it feel expensive and good, they fall for it because they are arrogant to the bone, I know few japs and they told me that their nation is rather retarded and dumb just like hamburgers or germans

High IQ

I would expect sharp to be much higher on the list

It also seems all these companies share a 30% compared to iOS

because it's NPC: the country

Glad anons on this board don't fetishize the nips and instead mock them

Not Korean and not Chinese

>4-5% lower than the previous year
Seems like Android is winning.

Japan has 4 (1 is new) phone carriers. All of them offer iPhones and market them heavily. iPhone is essentially the new/exciting entrant to the phone market. Sure other smartphones exist, but they're seen as lacking the "appeal" factor. Where as Apple has the face of Steve Jobs and Tim Cook and both are seen as "cool" icons in Japan.

Jow Forums BTFO

Koreans are too loyal to samsung because half the country is hired by them. China imposes draconian terms on non native businesses

Japan btfo

Sony makes shit phones and japs wont buy korean phones because MUH DOKDO.

Japanese don't care about Dokdo, unlike gookrea

Japan doesn't like Korea, so it would rather buy products from a country that nuked them.
Japan lacks trust in any country east of them, west of Mongolia and north of Vietnam. I'm guess it's market competition in that region at stake. It's less like the US where the market competition is more domestic or with Europe.

High IQ on average. As you can see they still have a few Samsung-buying retards, though.

IIRC according to the same source, Australia is 75% Apple users

>Japan lacks trust in any country east of them
So Polynesia or someshit?

Huge inferiority complex towards gooks and chinks

>high IQ average
The Japanese fill in the blank tests really does back this up.

I just realised I posted the opposite directions to what I meant.

They may make half-decent anime sometimes, and their tech may have been good in the past, but other than that Nipistan is fucking shit

>mobileshit

nobody cares you consumer faggot.

>insect culture [one built entirely on status and ass kissing at that] does insect things
Not that my post is particularly high quality but the extent weebs go to defend every little thing Japan does is unreal

>iPhones work well
>Reee Android is better you dunno shit

Riveting.

You can't shut off the shutter noise on iPhones, so the government pushes, and backd them more than androids.

wow the chinks like applel, what a revelation. it completely baffles me why they consume pure trash, i mean it's not like the rest of the world doesn't, but damn.

Since their "liberation" they became hyper-americanized, shallow, soulless consumer-humanoids...they were "liberated" by the USA in other words.

The Japanese know quality products when they see them.

Jow Forums is only mocking them in this thread because Jow Forums is made up of andjeets

Japanese posters and Korean posters on Jow Forums seem to both be more worried about the beast to the west.

Japs are unironically tech illiterate, and Apple was very effective in their ad campaigns over there. There's a reason Japanese primarily used flip phones until the early 2010s.

lovely

This is true, but not necessarilly the answer to OP's question

how does it end?

They also love netorare and yaoi so much, so you do the math.

Classic Mac OS had Kotoeri, the first Japanese input system on any computer that didn't suck ass, and the one upon which all modern widely used Japanese input systems are modeled upon.

Japan is really technologically backwards in a lot of ways, businesses still use fax machines as a primary communications tool, there's a lot of WAP-tier japanese content and feature phones are very common, their digital POS systems are a clusterfuck ot different incompatible systems

It's by far the most accurate answer in the whole thread. The Japanese love to take the fat, mouth-breathing American cock up the ass.

>the most expensive phone
IPhones are not there most expensive phones in Japan. Ordering a sim-free Galaxy generally costs more.

It's either an iPhone or something made by Koreans.

Because Steve was a weeb and Apple products follow Shinto design principles.

In Korea and Japan, you cannot turn off the shutter noises on any phone.

Both true.

Huawei has been selling good lately it seems.

I'm starting development on a distro made for eroge.

It's actually pretty amazing that back in 2010 (IIRC) the Japs were one of the last holdouts against Apple, regularly rejecting them in favor of clamshell feature phones.

macOS's Japanese input is still the best IMO.

>what is steamos

As a benefit though, you can use a 1990's tier computer to browse the Japanese web.

Because jap websites run like shit so there's no difference between a 1990 computer and a modern computer
