            Meanwhile Apple invests $150 in a dinner of friends while they decide how much profit they will charge by reselling the Samsung components at Gold price for sticking their bitten apple on top. Prepare the machine, which plays milk our sheep again ^^ Large blind parishioners, how good they are. Tie them!

                    Exynos is lagging further and further behind competitors and TSMC solidifies its lead over Samsung. Samsung needs the investment in R&D otherwise it would disappear under the Chinese tide

                      Oh and the most numerous Note at 4 models in one release

                      Samsung, awaken! Forget Fold for now (jk), those M8s are comin'!

                        Jun1250, 24 Apr 2019Seeing that they already nailed a 1TB storage phone, they d... moreThey need to go crazy with the chipset for the Note 10, the cameras, the battery, the charging, get the holes outta there, just go crazy with it. Make it like it's their last chance, last phone

                          Samsung should also think of Very Strategic Hires. Picking up guys who designed the A12x Chip, guys from Sony's Imaging sensor division, guys from AMD's Ryzen Team etc.

                          Samsung should aim to knock Somy out of the No1 position in Imaging Sensors and also aim to make the Best SoCs, and Laptop and Desktop Processors.

                            Walter C. Dornez, 24 Apr 2019They better go crazy. Make the chips better than this years... moreSeeing that they already nailed a 1TB storage phone, they def should put the memory dept to rest for a bit. It's time to get fab, Samsung, like you did with 14nm

                              They better go crazy. Make the chips better than this years shoddy attempt
