    "Chinese brands are preparing an onslaught of smaller devices with top of the line specs for the next few months, and the Galaxy S25 may barely survive that"

    The chinese brands that don't make compact phones, the only 2024 competitors to vanilla S models is normal sized iPhone and maybe the Pixel 9.

    Strange statement

      Pretty sure what he said is just a hypothetical future of Samsung considering Samsung has been lazy for a few years already. People making fun of Apple for no innovation while Samsung have none innovation on S24U aside from anti reflective screen and upgrading the 2nd telephoto sensor while downgrading the focal length (10x→5x).

      Samsung has been doing terrible strategy by ditching base model of Tab S10 series. If they really kill S26 base model, they are stupid as hell. They are giving free money to iPhone 17 and Pixel 10 Pro.

        Shamrock Sean, 01 Oct 2024No the best compact phone is Pixel 9 Pro no, it's the Xiaomi 14/the iPhone 16 Pro. The Pixel 9 Pro's chip automatically disqualifies it from being a flagship.

          There is no big loss for us customers because Samsung devices are much too expensive compared to the competition and in many aspects they lag behind.
          Nowadays every phone in the price range of 700/1000 EUR takes very similar photos so the argument of a good camera is pointless and in other aspects Samsung tries to defend itself with IA but many of us just don't care and the rest of the missing applications from the Samsung ecosystem can be easily replaced.

            Such a shameless move it'll be rather than making it more competitive

              dt031sin, 01 Oct 2024More and more android brands are trying to make the iPhone ... moreNo the best compact phone is Pixel 9 Pro

                More and more android brands are trying to make the iPhone the only compact phone option to be available in smartphone market.

                  Are these upcoming "smaller devices" you speak of more 6.4 inch "compact" phones?

                    Samsung has dug its own grave, it's time to pay for the mistakes and the laziness.

                      Would probably be a stupid move, but then again, the company taking these moves is Samsung so...

                        Giving up, rather than trying to compete with something competitive doesn't seem like a genius plan, but what do I know. Samsung knows best!

                          So unless they're reintroducing the A5 series in North America they'll have abandoned everything between $200 and $1000 in that market.
