I never said that played into my buying decision. I was just explaining in layman's terms how Apple gets similar performance with weaker specs on paper. I make my purchase decision on which device does what I need it to do best. In fairness, looks don't play into it for me and if they did I'd be a hard core religious Apple fanboi like

Apple makes pretty machines, for sure.
As it is, I'll have a tough time deciding between iPhone 6+, Note 4, and the next Nexus device this fall.
