But still apple watch might have sold more than all the sales of Samsung watches put togerher in one month..

Not only note 5 is a flop, note 4 too.
Samgung always posted the sales figures of galaxy and note series.
Lack of trumpeting proves they are flops. Even Samsung guidance for q4 is bad.

Anyway i don't need to talk about how successful s6'and s4 was

    The Note 5 fail starting to show the consequences...
    It's really sad that so many people are paying for the decisions consequences of a few.

      AnonD-364786, 01 Nov 2015i replied to a post which said apple produces crap and i re... moreNo. I said that Apple highlighted problems with large phones and thus stayed away from them. When they eventually made one they never even dealt with the problems such as size and weight.

      His post is relevant because sales are irrelevant in judging quality, especially in Apple's case where the brand has high intrinsic value.

In fact, they don't ever provide results on individual iPhone models, therefore the iPhone 6 must have lost it's market.

        Lack of evidence is not evidence of something else. Samsung has NEVER provided sales numbers like that, except in rare milestone instances.

                        They are charging 2x the price of a Xiaomi yet provide worse specs and UI experience is far worse than Xiaomi. Small wonder sales are declining.

                              In this time, the cellphone company is not easy more profit. But layoff is a best way to keep company to make profit. Now only the China cellphone can easy make money. l don't understand how they can easy money. Maybe they make cheap cellphone. But l think their software and hardware is not very well.

                                    I feel bad for those people out there in places like in China where there are labors treated poorly and other problematic accidents like causing fires in companys were people trap them and die with no emergency evacuation.

                                    I seen it in documentary youtube vids talking about this.

                                    And the difference as well in the us and third world countries for how companies treated us.

                                      No where in the news was it mentioned that the mobile division is at loss. Samsung make a lot of things and most likely, since they showed profit recently, other divisions are at loss and Samsung might be laying off people from those divisions. Come on people use your brain once in a while.

                                        That's what you got when latest flagships has more gimmicks (but less features) than previous flagships.. ;)

                                        People still prefer older Samsung flagships because it's more complete.
