According to a report from KTUL in Tulsa, Oklahoma, the roommates, Jiaro Mendez and Elias Acevedo, were getting drunk together when the conversation devolved into a debate about tech

One man refused to acknowledge the iPhone's superiority while the other refused to admit that the new Samsung smartphone was better. When they couldn't reach an agreement they proceeded to stab each other repeatedly with smashed beer bottles. Police say the two men broke beer bottles and stabbed each other with them. One of the men smashed a bottle over the back of the other man's head.

The pair, covered in blood, were taken to hospital where they were treated for lacerations to their body, and Acevedo, 21, has since been arrested and charged with assault with a deadly weapon, according to the police report.

Both men were treated for non-life threatening injuries

Both men were taken to the hospital with cuts all over their bodies and are expected to make a full recovery. "Police did not respond when our photographer asked which phone is better," Ana Lastra at KTUL writes.

Police said a third man was reportedly drinking with the men but he had left the scene before they arrived. Jail records showed that Acevedo is being held without bond and an Immigration and Customs Enforcement hold has been placed on him, according to the Smoking Gun.

We're hoping this will be the final argument about the matter.
