Samsung GALAXY S9 was announced by the company Samsung a few weeks ago as a phone that had "slow" sales on the global markets, something that was also announced by many analysts. A lot of people clearly understood that everything that was estimated until then were not lies, and that the Samsung GALAXY S9 really has lower sales than the Samsung GALAXY S8, but apparently also than the other 4 models launched before it.
The Samsung GALAXY S9 was then presented by Samsung as a phone with poor sales, but now the president of the mobile division, DJ Koh, claims that in fact things are not like that, and that the phone actually has better sales than the previous series. According to a statement made today by DJ Koh, Samsung GALAXY S9 has sales 6% higher than those of the previous series, if we were to compare the periods in which the three phones were on sale.
Samsung GALAXY S9: CONTRADICTIONS at Samsung regarding Sales
The Samsung GALAXY S9 was sold more than the Samsung GALAXY S8, but analysts say that the sales are even lower, and Samsung makes contradictory announcements regarding the sales of the phone. Of course, it's normal for a company that has a product that sells poorly, like the Samsung GALAXY S9, to start saying all kinds of things to give the impression that things are different, especially since it doesn't publicly announce exactly how much it sells, and all the numbers are just the estimates of others.
"When we look at the trend of the Galaxy S9 sales, the figure has been increasing, and in some regions, the performance even outpaced the Galaxy S8. The Galaxy S8 was released in April last year, and the Galaxy S9 went on sale in March. When we look at the first six months, sales rather increased by 6 percent. It is not too late to make a judgment (on the Galaxy S9) at the end of the year."
The Samsung GALAXY S9 could be a resounding failure, and Samsung could announce that it is selling extremely well, and no one would know the truth, especially since the president of the mobile division says one thing, and the communication team says another. To be completely honest, I think this strategy is not a winning one for Samsung, and if they had recognized that Samsung GALAXY S9 has problems and would have solved them, they would have won more, instead of starting to generate unnecessary confusion.
