since when the most profitable company on the planet gets called an underdog? words have no meaning anymore?


They were implying Android is the underdog.


Google is not the underdog either by any measure...


But Apple is basically only their devices, and the iphone the biggest one from all of them.

Google is a myriad of services and their money is made from advertising and cloud. Android is just a very small part.

So when you compare smartphones then Google is the smaller player, itβ€˜s only a small fraction of the company while the rest is doing totally different things.
