Galaxy Note 4, Samsung accelerates its launch – ZDNet

Article updated at 13h

Samsung loses it a bit of composure? Facing the absolute cardboard iPhone 6 (10 million copies sold in three days), the South Korean seems he decided to speed up the release of its Galaxy Note 4, a direct competitor of the iPhone 6 More.

Les Echos indeed indicate that the phablet World number one mobile is launched in China on Wednesday as he was to land in the Middle Kingdom in October. Same with South Korea. This early launch illustrates a certain excitement toward the conglomerate that did not explain the reasons for this decision. One can simply note that the iPhone 6 is not yet available in China …

I must say that Samsung plays big with his Note 4 This is to continue to dominate a segment market he created and is growing. IDC, global shipments of phablets
  or hybrid phone-tablet anyway exceed those
 laptops, starting this year. These mobile devices
  whose screen is between 5.5 and 6.99 inches by IDC, thus elapse to 175 million units in 2014 and next year, growth should again be waiting for you at 318 million units planned.

According to a global study
  Accenture (23,000 consumers surveyed in 23 countries), among the
 57% of consumers who plan to upgrade to a smartphone
 During the year, 48% and wear their choice on a phablette
 rather than a conventional smartphone.

Slow

Still, according to the analyst, it is Apple who will reap the greatest benefits of this craze even if the score 4 has a lot of tricks up his sleeve, including a real fiber B2B and smart stylus. In addition, Samsung is absorbing profits down.

The slowdown at Samsung in 2013 in the smartphone sector was confirmed earlier this year.
  This situation can be explained in particular by the intensification of
  competition in the entry level, especially in emerging countries
 like China and India.

This trend is again in the interim results from Samsung. The Chinese market, the largest market for smartphones (third annual deliveries), the Korean saw revenues melt nearly 2 billion over the second quarter alone.

Samsung pressure should not release this year. In
 otherwise. In addition to slowing growth in the markets for
 smartphones and tablets, the price competition hollow margins of manufacturers. According to GFK, the average price of a smartphone should move back to $ 345 at $ 297.

Galaxy Note. Following the success of the iPhone 6, Samsung against attack – West France

Galaxy Note 4, to be launched in October, will finally be available this week in South Korea and China before flooding 140 countries in the coming weeks. Samsung had not released a model in China before other markets.

10 iPhone 6 million

The South Korean did not give an explanation for this accelerated schedule but his decision comes after Apple announced it had sold over 10 million copies of its latest smartphone, the iPhone 6, during the first weekend of release, setting a new record.

This model is rather a “phablette” , portmanteau word designating a device halfway between the phone and the tablet, which Samsung is the pioneer and is very popular in Asia.

Blackberry also

In his later advertisements, South Korea is also making fun of his rival, who, he said, s’ is inspired by the score for his latest creation. In a less public that Samsung or Apple market positioning, Canadian Blackberry released Wednesday its Passport, so called because of the size of sesame presented border with features and a focus on environmental business needs and less on recreational use . Again, the smartphone wants “phablette” with a square screen of 11.5 cm overlooking a popular keyboard manufacturer of true Canadian.

The new BlackBerry clearly target frames companies, healthcare professionals, investors and other financiers. In an attempt to regain market share, BlackBerry announces Passport to 599 dollars in the United States and on the website of online retailer Amazon, which is cheaper than Apple or Samsung the latest smartphone.

Several app at the same time

With Galaxy Note 4 presented in early September in Berlin with great fanfare, Samsung modernizes line launched in 2011 that attracted too happy Asian consumers can do without buying a tablet.

New design, more durable screen with better resolution, camera, microphone and more efficient battery, the new model is always used with a stylus. This Samsung as the BlackBerry Passport displays multiple applications simultaneously, or offers the ability to select multiple photos and drag them all together where the user wants.

Hard times for Samsung

These possibilities, which does not offer the iPhone 6 may be an argument especially sales for Samsung, the latest flagship smartphone model, the Galaxy S5, would not have met the home hoped to consumers.

Samsung strengthened its position in the second quarter of the world leader in smartphones, with 74.3 million units sold, more than double Apple, but its market share fell sharply to 25.2%, according to research firm IDC. “We are going through a difficult time,” , acknowledged Lee Don-Joo, director of sales and marketing for the mobile division of South Korea, on the occasion of the launch of the Galaxy Note in Seoul. “But we hope to bounce back soon with our expertise in technological innovation” , has he said.

Chinese Competition

The Galaxy Note 3 had sold 10 million copies in the two months following its release in 2013 and Samsung hope version 4, the price was set at 910 dollars (714 euros) will improve this result.

In addition to Apple, Samsung, whose profits fell nearly 20% in the second half, faces Chinese competitors who flood the emerging entry-level phones. So Huawei has become in a very short time the third vendor of smartphones with 20.3 million copies elapsed in the second quarter (6.9% market share), according to IDC. His compatriot Lenovo is not very far with 15.8 million units sold, representing a market share of 5.4%. The South Korean giant also announced Wednesday that it plans to launch in October a new version of its smart watch Gear S and its virtual reality VR headset, through which consumers can become immersed in video games at 36O degrees .

The Samsung Galaxy Note Edge is a limited edition with a … – Phonandroid

Could this be the day Samsung? As we learned earlier that the Galaxy Note 4 will be officially available in October, more information regarding the Galaxy Note Edge just fallen. Besides the Korean automaker is considering more the latter model as a new concept, a limited edition to offer an alternative to the Galaxy Note 4 And that says limited edition wants often say scarcity .

Samsung and adapt its communication to the latest addition to the Galaxy range. Korean brand seems increasingly speak of it as an exceptional smartphone, the new concept. With its premium design, the first feature is the screen to the curved edge on the right side of the screen, Galaxy Note on Edge clashes among other devices in its class.

But Samsung is not simply that of a seductive visual, hardware configuration follows the lines of its counterpart Note 4 We will have a racing hands on its release a few weeks. Even if it does not occur on the same date as the Galaxy Note 4 which is itself planned from September 26 in Korea and then a few days later in 140 countries.

The Galaxy Note Edge is simply tipped to land at retailers a few weeks after the release of Note 4 According to ZDNet spoke with DJ Lee, president of Samsung Electronics, available in South Korea is not expected before the end October . There is no doubt that the Korean company will manage the implementation of other territories gradually, without haste. Hence the phenomenon of scarcity that could happen.

But these assumptions also hide another question. That the price to be to get it. Samsung shows surprisingly silent on the subject. Should we expect such rumors in echo, at a price of 880 euros at the official launch of the Galaxy Note Edge? Will you be willing to buy it at such a cost

The Samsung Galaxy Note Edge is not intended for … – Juicer

Most fans will have to settle for Samsung Galaxy Note a 4, because the production of Edge Note will be limited.

During the IFA in Berlin, Samsung was a lot of talk. If first impressions of the Galaxy Note 4 were pretty good, but rather the Galaxy Note Edge attracted attention. Remember, mobile is more or less similar to Note 4, but it is distinguished by the fact that the screen is curved over the edge.

But unfortunately, most of those who intend to buy a Galaxy Note Edge will certainly be satisfied with a Galaxy Note 4 because Samsung is not able to produce Note the mass Edge.

During a press conference, the company president DJ Lee would have even suggested that, unlike the Galaxy Note 4 Note the Edge will only be that of a production limited.

So it is possible that the Galaxy Note Edge is available in South Korea at launch. it a few days ago, the British online retailer Clove has also explained on his blog that the Galaxy Note Edge will not be available in most European countries, at least at the time of its launch. His information came from the supply chain.

So far, no phone curved screen has not been mass produced. For example, last year, Samsung unveiled the Galaxy Round. LG also had the LG G Flex. But neither smartphones has really been a massive production.

Obviously, these mobiles are mainly “demonstrations of innovations” for manufacturers. It also remains to be seen whether we really need to have mobile curved. Anyway, in my personal opinion, the Galaxy Note Edge is a little more interesting than the Galaxy Round.

Edge Galaxy Note: only 1 million units, no sale … – Clubic

Presented at IFA in early September, the Galaxy Note Edge and screen curved edge will be sold in limited in South Korea and Germany edition at a price close to 1,000 euros. Samsung introduced him proudly to Berlin: the Galaxy Note Edge and screen curved edge, allowing access to notifications on the edge of the phone will not stop unless an Android smartphone in small audience. On the occasion of a press conference in South Korea, the manufacturer has confirmed that the device will not be mass produced.

With a limited 1 million copies production, Galaxy Note Edge should be offered in South Korea and Germany. The rest of the world will be private, at least officially, since it will always be possible to get it through the back door, especially on the Internet. Nevertheless, we must be willing to pay a substantial sum, since the terminal has recently appeared for pre-order on German sites, priced at 999 euros.

For this price, the user has to very close to the Galaxy Note 4 at the terminal specifications – a Super AMOLED screen of 5.7 inches, a 4-core SoC clocked at 2.7GHz, 3GB of RAM, a 16-megapixel camera sensor on the front and 3 7-megapixel rear camera and a 3000 mAh battery, all running Android 4.4. The specialization of the Galaxy Note Edge is in the fact that the right edge of the screen is curved and displays an additional layer of information, which gives the impression that the smartphone has a small independent secondary display.

Galaxy Note Edge phablette a niche – Le Journal du Geek

The Galaxy Note Edge, presented by Samsung during IFA, has a small effect. It must be said that the phablette, with a second screen on its edge on the right, is a very handsome object that blows a cool breeze in the area.

Unfortunately, the manufacturer does not give the impression of wanting to benefit the world. According to a leader of the group, the Edge rating is considered a “limited edition”, a concept that will not necessarily result in a lot of units.

The Galaxy Note Edge thus destine a niche market for clients who are willing to invest that much in a Galaxy Note 4 … although Samsung has not yet specified tariff. The manufacturer expects to sell a million copies a year, so we feel vaguely that the device has potential … maybe even more than the Galaxy Round which is a kind of successor.

The Edge Note will be available in Korea in late October. No date for the rest of the world, but it is not inconceivable that it will be next year.
