OBEY 57,109 Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 "Samsung is introducing the Galaxy Note9 on August 9, which two weeks earlier than its predecessor. According to industry insiders from Taiwan, the reason is the Korean company is experiencing low sales of the Galaxy S9 and the Galaxy S9+ and wants to keep the momentum in user engagement before it is too late." "This move should counter the poor performance of the Galaxy S9 series which according to some reports from China reached lowest levels since 2012 when the Galaxy S III was still a thing. Reports by China Times say the current flagship sold only 30 million units since its unveiling in February." https://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_launch_galaxy_note9_early_august_dpoor_galaxy_s9_sales-news-32413.php Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ryhanna 3,507 Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 I didn't buy a Galaxy 9 because I'm still happy with my Galaxy 8 Maybe they should take a page from Apple's book and start significantly slowing down their previous models to encourage a new purchase (pls no) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reginald 13,841 Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 I'm in between a rock and a hard place with Samsung right now, I feel like a lot of consumers are. There's leaked info that their 2019 models are going to be absolutely revolutionary, so I'm waiting to buy. I still haven't upgraded to 8, and it might be more worthwhile to wait and see what happens next year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThisGuyTony 34,835 Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 These cellphone companies need to start making things that consumers want in phones. People want longer battery life and phone storage but instead they come out with face-unlock and Animoji or whatever it's called. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SHALLOW 16,469 Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 I think it's cause there's no major difference between S9 and S8. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reason people buy Xbox or Playstation is that they know their purchase worth hundreds of dollars is gonna last them for a few years and be supported. Why the **** should I buy a Galaxy 9 when my current phone works fine and the additions like face-unlock and animoji are things that can probably be installed via a downloadable update instead of a brand new phone? Technology is progressing fast, sure, but there's no major leaps that warrant a new phone model every 12 months aside from pure corporate greed.
