It is too early to conclude whether the Samsung Galaxy S9 is successful. After all, the Galaxy S9 and the Galaxy S9+ have just been released for more than a month. No one knows what kind of performance will end up. However, from the early sales data, whether it is Galaxy S9 or Galaxy S9+, the current sales performance is not satisfactory.
There have been a lot of news from the supply chain that the sales of the Galaxy S9 are far below expectations, even worse than the performance of the Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8+ last year. More importantly, among almost all operators in the United States, the Galaxy S9 and the Galaxy S9+ have begun to cut prices significantly. Obviously this is a terrible signal, and more importantly, Samsung has already had special discounts and scheduled deals with carrier partners. It’s not easy to figure out why the Galaxy S9 is not selling well, but according to current evaluations, the Galaxy S9 itself is a perfect smartphone. Some insiders said that Samsung’s design is the ultimate problem.
The new generation of Galaxy S9 and Galaxy S9+ looks almost indistinguishable from the Galaxy S8 and the Galaxy S8+, so many consumers are not motivated to upgrade and upgrade, and the price is very expensive, and fewer consumers choose to upgrade. In addition, for Samsung, this loss can be compensated by a strong supply chain business, but if Samsung wants to continue to consolidate its leadership position in the smartphone market, it needs to make more fuss about next year’s Galaxy S10 and Galaxy S10+. However, there is still a long time to release from the Galaxy S10, but someone has already done the concept video for the Galaxy S10 for Samsung.
Before the release of the Galaxy S9 and Galaxy S9+, there were rumors that Samsung was making significant changes to its flagship in 2018. For whatever reason, Samsung delayed the redesign of the Galaxy S series, allowing the new flagship to adopt the same design as the Galaxy S8, even without any difference. And this decision made Samsung finally pay a heavy price. But obviously this is not a disaster for Samsung, just a small episode.
Samsung Galaxy S10 and Galaxy S10+ will be the most anticipated Android smartphones next year, and Samsung should make a lot of reforms on the Galaxy S10. So we will see a very beautiful new flagship, and if it really can be demonstrated in this concept video, then it is really worth looking forward to. According to the demonstration, the Galaxy S10 continues the design style of the Galaxy S9, but the full screen is more thoroughly implemented, and the front is almost safely covered by the screen.
One of Samsung’s Infinity Display screens is equipped with a side-surface screen, so the border of the entire screen is almost negligible. Compared to the Galaxy S9, the Galaxy S10 concept design virtually eliminates the border portion of the top and bottom of the screen. Another big change comes from the back. We see that there is no fingerprint sensor under the dual camera, so it is very likely to use the screen fingerprinting technology like rumors. The Samsung Galaxy S10 is indeed likely to become one of Samsung’s first flagships to use this technology.
