They can streamline their product lines. Instead of releasing several variants of As, Js, ONs they can just release a mini variant of their flagships to target OnePlus’s market and a single model in lowrange and concentrate fully on flagships. But, this problem is common for all big manufacturers with the kind of onslought the multitudes of Chinese brands are making.

    HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Chineses don't innovate, they copy.
    Chineses copied Samsung and Apple design. That's it.

          Samsung phones look like toys, that design and those pastel colors... to girlish even for a girls. They look sweet, tooo sweet and not mighty at all (doesn't matter if then acctually are powerfull). And that kiddy UI. Yack!

              Totally crap internals with humongous price is the reason behind all this. Samsung should shut down its mobile division.

                Dont worry, samsung still got the quality branded device throughout the years.

                And i believe they will surprise us with the S10 series with many good things to keep their momentum as they got too many competition nowadays. As for mid range & low end device, bad sales hurts them as many chinese manufacturers offer better specs for the price. As for flagship, Apple, Samsung & Huawei got it own pros & cons. U cant go wrong with either one.

                  Samsung have to change its business strategy immediately otherwise no can save them...

                    I Love Samsung.. So Much So That I Just Passed On Litterally All SDM Flagships For Note 9 512 GB Exynos 9810 Version Even Though It Got A Bad Rap Among The Tech Community.. They Just Need The Right Nudge.. Don't Go For True Full Screen But Improve On Cam Software (Too Much Softness And Warm Colours) Caliberate Their Displays Better(60 Or Better Yet 90 FPS Would Be Better.. Right Now They Berely Touch 30 Or So).. Save UDFPS For The Highest Variant(Also Note 10) But Also Give A Traditional FPS On The Back(Like Mate's Porsche RS).. Sealed But Give The Highest Variant Atleast 4500 mah Graphite Battery(Last I Heard, It Was Production Ready).. Rest 4000 Mah Li Ion.. Base Variant Can Kick In For 3800 Or So..And Give The Cooling System Better Than Note 9.. And Put The Jack On The Bottom Right Side With Better Stereo Speakers(The One On Note 9 Is Softer And Unbalanced..
                    Last On The Design Part, That Depends Upon Individual Tastes.. I Seriously Love Curved Screens Mixed With Sony's Glass Loop Surface Screen At 6.4 Inch 18.5 Infinity Display(I'll Go For StB @ 87 - 89% 90 9r Above Is Too Much 4 The Size) Ultra HD(For The Highest Variant.. If They Are Going 4 Triple Cam,Go 4 Main Cam 12 MP Dual Aperture(This Time Go For f/1.4 - f/2.6, Variable Of Course, Not Unlike Fixed Like The Previous Gen) 2nd Monochrome, 3rd Ultra Wide Angle 110 - 120 Degree Cam For 1080p Super Slow Mo(If Going 4 A Splurge Then Why Not 720p Super Slo Mo 4 Front Cam).. 4K @ 60(120 Would Be Better) With OIS & EIS.. Price The Highest Variant(10/512 GB Expandable) For 1099 Bucks And Start The Base Variant(8/128 Expandable) For 799 Bucks.. Maybe No One Agrees With Me And Probably DJ Koh Is Thinking About Ditching The Jack 4 BT's But I Can Dream.. That's It..

                      Crisis is inevitable, indeed.
                      The path they're following, with a hole in the screen, is crazy. Even hating it, I'd rather to have a notch than a hole in the screen.

                        Are aware that it has almost 3x the size of the current used inside s9?
                        Also the lenses, OIS will grow in proportion ?

                        Phone needs at least 26mm thick to house it.

                          Because oeople would just buy new batteries then since newer batteries last a lot longer than the old ones.

                          Must design it so people spend more to have it repaired or annoy consumers with glue to have them replaced every two years

                            Hater, 20 Nov 2018> the reason Samsung is finally getting in the lead of i... moreInfinity display meas less grip, worse fullscreen enjyoument and is more prone to breaking. That isn't innovation, just a useless gimmick making their phones worse.

                            Dex and Linux on dex is just following in the footsteps of Motorola, and in aprt also Microsoft, not innovating.

                            Samsung is growing stale, time to rethink and stop with gimmicks (infinity display). Fact remains that to win customers you have to have a great device at a competitive price.

                              Here's a thought: make a good phone for a decent price. It's so crazy it just might work! This is not just a Samsung problem though. The smartphone business has become a parody of itself in just 2 years time with all the latest "innovations".

                                Since S6 all Samsung does is to copy other brands.

                                - Speaker should be below Home, not beside usb like iphone
                                - No SD for S6/ N5
                                - Glass back
                                - IP68
                                - Stereo speakers
                                - Iris scanner
                                - Desktop mode
                                - 960fps and 3 layer stacked CMOS
                                - AR emoji
                                - 52 mm telephoto with f2.4
                                - 12 MP main cam
                                - Scene recognition for auto mode
                                - Tablet 4:3 screen like iPad
                                - Notched phone
                                - OIS
                                - FPS on side

                                The funniest part is the fact many fanboys say all this was gimmick, but when Samsung starts using it must be on all phones.

                                  Samsung must put quality in their devices, not only performance! quality!
                                  I have an S8 that I needed to sent to service after 1 year because all sensors get broken. I have a Samsung tablet that I sent to service because get broken. note7? ... ...
                                  most probably I will not buy a Samsung again due to quality issues, not performance, performance is very good, but I need a reliable phone!
