Apple Wins 'Brand of the Year' Awards in Smartphone, Tablet, and Computer Categories
"Americans continue to give Apple brands strong ratings," says Manny Flores, Senior Vice President at Harris Interactive. "And while their Consumer Connection scores are strong within their respective categories, what really stands out is that in all three of the categories Apple brands are measured - Computer, Tablet and Mobile Phone - its Brand Momentum scores are in the top 30 of all 1,500 brands evaluated in the study, showing that consumers see this as a brand of the future.These awards come after BBC reported about a survey done by marketing group Added Value (AV), who claimed that Apple’s brand has become “less inspiring” among consumers.

Great for Apple, but I don't think polling "38,500+ Americans" is enough to award Apple "Brand of the Year", whether or not they deserve it. There are over 300 million people here in the US. Factors also include the age groups, the type of work they do, regions perhaps, etc. can they ask everyone? No, that's impossible. But for "awards" like this, there must be more participation.
If it was a couple of hundred, I would have agreed with you, but statistically speaking, 38,500 Americans is, for the US anyway, a significant sample. I've seen political polls that were being touted as being fairly representative, with fewer people asked their preference, than the 38,500 in this poll.
How you figure that, they only surveyed 38.5k Americans out of how many, also i bet that all those surveyed where walking out of apple shops.
Coming from someone who owns a galaxy s3, of course you'll defend samsung.
Not just consumer products, Apple products can win Oscar if nominated! That's the beauty of Apple. :apple:
Nice one. I agree.
For example, I know of several G4 iMacs in movies that had a better performance than some of the ludicrous actors.

only americans?? if they are patriots they will always vote for american brand...
i think what if this poll is taking in Asia?
In South Korea, voting for Apple will get you arrested.
In North Korea, voting will get you arrested.
In Japan, voting for Samsung will get you arrested.

Google is quickly becoming my favorite brand. Apple would be second followed by Netflix.
Google? Remember, you are not their customer. Advertisers are their customers. You are the product that they are selling.
Apple's iPhone and Mac/MacBook line ups can be debated, as well as their iPad, to a lesser extent. But who even refers to an MP3 player as anything other than an iPod? When your product has become the household/common name for the entire "category" (such as Windex for window/surface cleaners), you know you're king in that department.
