How is Apple a "prada" status symbol? Yes, they're popular, iconic and aspirational, but have you seen the prices and refinement of Samsung phones recently? If Samsung haven't been able to replicate Apple in being iconic and aspirational, that's on them. You can't blame Apple because Samsung aren't also "prada" in your eyes.
I was responding to this assertion: "One of the biggest factors behind Apple's success is that they've positioned themselves as a status symbol. They're the Prada of the tech world."
This was referring to brand perceptions, not the Android or iOS software platforms.
