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?
I have the galaxy sii. was going to get microsoft 950 but reviews are mixed
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.
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.
No kidding. The battery of my S6 is shot and I can’t even get a day out of it.
