Samsung may not be able to churn out enough chipsets for the Galaxy S8

28 March 2017
This means the flagship smartphone could be hard to find in some markets.

Sort by:

So this maybe is why they made the first batch of SD835 units exclusive only to them. I guess Samsung did not make a bad decision after all

    There's no way they that they don't have the capacity to supply chips for their flagships. Same old marketing strategy.

            Marketing strategy, atta boy

              Grubba, 28 Mar 2017They could always use the chip sets from the Note7, I guess.Blow 7 had same chip as s7. 8890 and not 8895. Sd 820, not sd835.

                [deleted post]Alas, my fella, non sense it is indeed not.
                Read up a few books about marketing and consumer psychology.
                You might get a decent insight about how things work on this here Planet.

                  [deleted post]Just like expecting a blow up/grenade/bomb unpunny comments that infests these comment sections whether here or YouTube. When Toyota went through a recall of their own that killed someone, people look away. When Samsung does it, endless amounts of morons asking if the new one will blow up or if the phone is DA BOMB??

                    It's kind of a payback for Samsung for the snapdragon monopoly lol

                                It's ok. Less to blow up.

                                      Typical samsung, always have to find a way to disappoint people, they did it with the Note 5 in Europe so I'm not surprised anymore

                                        Yeah, yeah... typical samsung marketing stunts.
                                        "We wont be able to satisfy the demand... "
                                        Sell that story to someone else, cause you wont be selling as much...
