Jakarta, CNBC Indonesia – Microsoft founder Bill Gates prefers to use a cellphone made by Samsung rather than Microsoft. He said this in the “Ask Me Anything” session on the forum online Reddit.
During the session, someone asked about the cell phone that Gates uses on a daily basis. He admitted that he was reluctant to use an iPhone and was still loyal to an Android cellphone.
“Several Android cellphone manufacturers are immersed software default Microsoft, so it’s easier for me to use,” said Bill Gates, quoted from BusinessInsiderTuesday (17/1/2023).
The Android cell phone that Gates is using at the moment is the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4. The 2022 folding screen cellphone was actually given directly by Samsung Director, JY Lee.
“I used the Samsung Fold 4 that Samsung Chairman JY Lee gave me when I came to South Korea to update my Fold 3,” Gates explained.
It seems that Gates is indeed a loyal customer of Samsung’s folding screen HP series. The Galaxy Z Fold 4 is a premium cellphone that costs the same price as the iPhone.
For the cheapest variant with 12GB RAM and 256GB ROM, the Galaxy Z Fold 4 is set at IDR 25 million. Meanwhile, the most expensive variant with 12GB RAM and 1TB ROM costs IDR 31 million.
It is known that Microsoft also used to make HP with the Windows operating system. However, sales of the Windows Phone line were stopped in 2017 because they were not Android and iPhone cellphones.
