[deleted post]The article isn't even about a Western market. It's about the India market, which the 2nd largest and most competitive smartphone market. The US market is the worst market for smartphone consumers and about to get even worse because of orange face and his protectionism. The EU market doesn't engage in as much protectionism as the US. Samsung is an Eastern brand, not West. If the West only permitted Western brands being sold, everyone in the West would only be using iPhones and Pixels. You have any proof that any of the Chinese smartphone brands are state funded? Or did you just make that up?

As a OnePlus customer I can see hundreds of Indians complaining on OP community, might be the same for Oppo and Vivo. So, if for them OP, Vivo and Oppo are so bad, how come they are leaving Samsung?, shouldn't them be moving from those brands to Samsung?

Samsung is acting like they are competitor to Apple, so their product range also like that.
Fact is nobody cares about samsung.
A $700 iphone or $700 samsung? 80% will choose iphone.
A $200 samsung or Vivo? More than 50% will choose vivo.

Rather odd not including the sub-brand's figures with the parent brand. Iqoo should be added onto Vivo, Realme onto Oppo and Poco onto Xiaomi.

As for stealing, maybe that is karma for developed nations that have taken advantage of smaller nations so the former has a high QoL standard lmao.

Now imagine if on... moreI'm glad they got that "brand" out of the race bc we would be in the same situation we were in 2017-2018: Huawei just copying stuff over from Apple and pretending they were doing it better, instead of doing something original. We also wouldnt have gotten breathing space for Oppo & vivo.
Here in my country, those 3 had the market flooded with low end devices being released pretty much every quarter. Samsung was spamming their J lineup at the time, and Huawei doing the same with their Y series lineup. It was terrible. Nowadays, its way better and more cleaned up. There are more options that are easy to tell apart.

This is what you'll get for not treating your customers well. Samsung seems to have forgotten that we Android users are not like the Apple fanbase. We use our brains to buy a device.

Abusing your brand name can last forever. Now imagine if one of the "rising brand" in 2019 didn't get sanctioned. You and Apple would've been screwed already.
