Samsung Galaxy S8 it did not reduce sales in any way iPhone 7 after the launch in April, or at least that's what American analysts claim in a note sent to clients. Although the Samsung company boasted of the fact that the Samsung Galaxy S8 recorded very good sales from the moment of launch, it seems that they did not in any way affect the sales recorded by the iPhone 7 terminals.
Samsung Galaxy S8 failed to reduce sales of iPhone 7 terminals in the US until the end of June, with more than a month of availability on global markets. The situation is quite interesting, because many would have imagined that the Samsung Galaxy S8 will substantially reduce the sales of iPhone 7 terminals after the launch, but the situation seems to be completely different.
The Samsung Galaxy S8 was highly praised by many customers and journalists, but it seems that the people who went towards this smartphone were not thinking of buying the iPhone. If the situation had been different, then the Samsung Galaxy S8 would have affected the sales of iPhone 7 terminals, which remained constant even during the month of June, to the astonishment of analysts.
Samsung Galaxy S8 did not reduce iPhone 7 sales
Samsung Galaxy S8 and iPhone 7 remained among the top smartphones sold in the US in the second fiscal quarter, but that was to be expected. The Samsung Galaxy S8 outperformed its rivals from LG during this period, and the LG G6 did not have good sales, but we told you today that the Korean mobile division lost several tens of millions of dollars in the second fiscal quarter of the year 2017.
The Samsung Galaxy S8 probably had a different evolution in other markets and it is possible that in Europe it affected iPhone 7 sales, but only in some countries. In Germany or Great Britain, it is unlikely that the Samsung Galaxy S8 will have substantially reduced the sales of the iPhone 7, but in Spain, Italy, or France, it is quite possible that Samsung will have had a somewhat greater success.
"Despite the introduction of the Samsung Galaxy S8 in April, iPhone sales remain "steady" and may have even improved in June. This should be great news for the 2017 iPhone lineup, according to Canaccord Genuity's T. Michael Walkley."
The Samsung Galaxy S8 has no sales figures published by the Samsung company and there are no clear estimates, but it has probably sold more than 10 million units already. The iPhone 7 series recorded higher sales in 3 days than the Samsung Galaxy S8 series in 30 days, but this is normal, considering that Apple is much more popular and so are their smartphones.
The Samsung Galaxy S8 is one of the most popular smartphones, mainly thanks to the new design offered by the Samsung company.
