I'm not sure what this has to do with Nooks. I think I was replying to a comparison of Apple and Samsung sales which was mentioned.

Which is like comparing apples to oranges (pun intended) since Apple only competes in the high end of the smartphone market while Samsung covers the low, middle and high end markets. Much like comparing raw auto sales numbers between Toyota and Tesla where a comparison of hybrid/EV sales would be a more useful comparison.
Another item of note is that Samsung is losing the largest number of customers to devices such as the OnePlus 6T, Pixel 3 and Huawei P20/P30 family. Apple owners are less likely to switch since they would have to abandon the Apple ecosystem.
