failure Galaxy Note 7 it will help increase sales iPhone 7, according to Drexel Hamilton analysts, who believe that Apple will sell 8 million more units than expected. Everything is based on the fact that Samsung will no longer sell the Galaxy Note 7 this fall and that it will no longer replace the existing models with others of the same kind.
Analysts were of the opinion that Samsung will sell between 10 and 14 million units of the Galaxy Note 7 this year, but it will not do so, so its competitors will take over the customers. From these figures, analysts expect Apple to add up to 8 million iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus units sold in addition to what is already estimated.
The increase is very large and could be up to 10% compared to the total sales of iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus during this year. Analysts estimate that Apple will sell up to 90 million units of iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus this year, so with this increase Apple could reach 100 million units sold.
Galaxy Note 7 will increase iPhone 7 sales
Although those from Samsung hope to compensate for the failure of the Galaxy Note 7 with a stronger promotion of the Galasy S7 and Galaxy S7 Edge, it is unlikely that this will happen. Although the two terminals are good and popular, they are already 6 months old on the market, so it is unlikely that they can compensate for a recently launched product.
"With initial estimates for Galaxy Note 10 sales of approximately 14-7 million units in Q2 2016, we believe that Apple has the opportunity to increase iPhone 8 sales by at least 7 million units in 2016. Moreover, this fiasco could permanently affects the Samsung brand in the smartphone market, a great opportunity for Apple to seriously increase its market share."
Apart from Apple, other Android terminal manufacturers also have the opportunity to take advantage of the failure of the Galaxy Note 7 to increase their sales. It is hard to say how much they will be able to do steal those from Samsung until the end of the year, but those from Apple have the best chance of substantially increasing their sales.
