    I purchased one, but its microwave charger was broken, so I got another but that one was broken too. Each time when the microwave charger broke, even normal charging no longer worked.

    We're what, 9 billion people on this Earth and closest part of space and you want us to belive that 1 billion Android devices are sold every day?

    Actually it's more like 7 billion (I think 6.9?) people on Earth, and he's saying that 1.5 billion Android phones are sold every day. I had no idea, but that's pretty impressive.
