But what happens in the world of mobile telephony? Recently, Tim Cook acknowledged that the iPhone was too expensive (yes, finally with subtlety …). It is now the turn of a Google executive, the creator of Android, to confess.
The president of Alphabet, now headquarters of the different activities and subsidiaries of Google, Eric Schmidt acknowledged: yes, it has an iPhone 6S. In his defense, it must be remembered that he was a member of the board of Apple a few years earlier.
“The Samsung S7 is better”
However, Tim Cook has not been surprised with an Android smartphone in hand. When Startup Fest Amsterdam, interviewed on stage by CNBC, Eric Schmidt said holding two smartphones. IPhone 6S and Samsung Galaxy S7
But be careful: “The Samsung S7 is better: better battery and has a better picture camera So, we are clear for those who are iPhone users, I’m right “has insisted the Google executive

This is not the first time that Eric Schmidt is seen in public with an iPhone. This was for instance the case earlier this year at the Go competition between Korean champion Lee Se-dol and AI Deepmind Google.
But after all, this is without probably not a bad idea for the owner of Alphabet to focus on the operation of Google apps and services on iOS. Google has, it is true, paid $ 1 billion to Apple in 2014 to remain the default Safari engine for iOS.
Europe errs on Google
During the Startup Fest, Eric Schmidt has however not only raised the rivalry iOS / Android. It has indeed been questioned on charges of abuse of dominant position of the European Commission. According to this, the share of Android market in Europe is 90%.
Schmidt denies EU critics. “From my perspective, it seems that they ignore the huge success of Amazon” answers including the leader.
