Yes, I do share your opinion but the fact here (in France) is this one : many companies equiped their staff with iPhones because of Apple's reputation and because of Apple's Sales force. It is hard to understand why, the other part of the companies only think to Android phones (less expensive btw). And usually when they buy what they buy is Samsung's ones....
Only small part of the reminders buy chinese noname phones (Titan, Rock, etc.) because they are cheap.
What I mean is the reputation has a big role in the process when choosing the perfect stuff.
