My phone (Samsung Galaxy Note2) is four years old.
I might need to replace it this year, but Samsung dropped replaceable batteries and MicroSD slots. I am a power user. Their current units are insufficient for my needs.
Dropping out of the power user market is probably what caused the drop, since if you look at it as a percentage it isn’t that huge a drop.
Did the amount they saved in expenditures meet or exceed the revenue drop?
How do you spell Samsung? Sony.
3d tv’s are physically the same as 2d but with a few more lines if code.
Samsung ate sony’s lunch
I have the galaxy sii. was going to get microsoft 950 but reviews are mixed
Compare AT&T or Sprint version reviews with reviews for the unlocked international version.
The lock up problems with the 950 seem likely to be caused by carrier installed bloatware.
Following the path Nokia Mobile Phones took. Nokia is still around, they just don’t make phones any longer.
I agree I will probably buy new ph in next year but won’t buy a ph that the battery cannot be easily remove and replaced with a charged one. Same with no microSD slot. Samsung won’t get my biz.
I did just buy a Samsung 10.5 Tablet though. Has USB port and it is for home so charging is fine when battery is low.
And the flexible roll-up screens. I thought Samsung excelled in that area and would make billions there. Their curved big screen TVs are amazing. The next thing was going to be flexible paper-thin screens on everything.

Plasma screens are energy wasters and deteriorate after a few years. The latest tech beats them in both energy usage and brightness, without putting out much heat.
Microsd went away in part due to Google’s decisions within previous versions of Android os. Google has reenabled the easy use of micro sd, so we might see a resurgence of inclusion. The coming Samsung Galaxy S7 will supposedly include again.
Replaceable batteries are probably a thing of the past within the next two years, though I cling to them with a fury.
The super thin, flexible screens are coming soon enough. Samsung and LG have shown them repeatedly.
LG just showed on that you can roll up in a tube for shipping. It attaches to a credit card thick magnetic frame on the wall. There is YouTube video of the demo girl peeling it away from the frame and bending it. Pretty cool.
Samsung Note 5 is amazing. I don’t usually get excited about phones but what this thing does is amazing. The pen is like magic. Amazing really. And the screen colors blow away even the newest Apple phone ...that was confirmed by a room full of IPhone lovers that noticed the vivid display. One asked if it was the new iphone.
The only thing that can make replaceable batteries a thing of the past is a concept called brand loyalty being universally embraced.
I don’t think that is possible.
Great picture, when it worked.
3 lamps, two color wheels, faulty circuit board in 3 years. ( Oh, we don't support that model anymore. Maybe you could find the part on the internet somewhere)
Samsung = Samsuck!
