Anonymous, 20 Jan 2025Yeah but we live in internet era, anyone can buy any phone ... moreYou know it very well that people won't just buy a phone that's not actually available in their country, let alone one that's from a brand that doesn't exist in their country. Some do, but not many. Look at India, there is competition and Samsung suddenly isn't selling too well, and is losing market share.

    rizki1, 20 Jan 2025Software can't save Samsung, unlike the loud people he... moreSo, you need to combine 1000 brands to make one brand looks smaller?

    I love this type of opinion. It reminds me of the little talks during my elementary school day

      rizki1, 20 Jan 2025Software can't save Samsung, unlike the loud people he... morepeople talk about software all day long but just like iPhone users, Samsung users dont care about what phone they use as long as it's a samsung, just rationalizing and making idiotic points such as "software gud" or "more premium!11" as excuses for their purchase.

        Anonymous, 20 Jan 2025I see nothing wrong with the statistic, many indian indeed ... moreLMFAO as if Samsung doesn't make cheap phones.

          DarlingYext, 20 Jan 2025Interesting how in a country where vivo is available as wel... morei know, Samsung's top selling phones ARE the cheapest ones, for example the A1x, A5x, A3x, A0x series phones. The scamsung fanboy brain ignores that and only thinks that Samsung's flagships make up the bulk of their sales lmao

            Software can't save Samsung, unlike the loud people here.. More people know Chinese brands better, now Samsung has to wake up. Actually, these Chinese brands are bigger if combined and Samsung market share will look smaller like no one cares.

So, technically every brand is available in every countries, and worldwide marketshare is most important representation of sales performance.

                    Apple can never be at number 1 spot in India unless they enter in 100$-200$ budget segment.

                      jiyen235, 20 Jan 2025Crazy that Oppo excludes both Oneplus AND Realme and still ... moreInteresting how in a country where vivo is available as well as Samsung, people would rather choose vivo. 🤭

                      "Inb4 some racist comes here and says Chinese phones are only doing well in India cus Indians are poor or something bigoted like that"

                      I'm here before they could say that, even if that was true, there are cheap Samsung phones as well, yet that's not helping Samsung's market share either.

                        Crazy that Oppo excludes both Oneplus AND Realme and still came in 4th.....

                        And who'd have thought? Encouraging competition instead of banning competitors would lead to more competition! Samsung rightfully is losing sales. People used to cope by saying Samsung has more sales so Chinese phone fans should shut up, where are they now? LMAO

                        Inb4 some racist comes here and says Chinese phones are only doing well in India cus Indians are poor or something bigoted like that.

                          DarlingYext, 20 Jan 2025Samsung losing market share big time🤭Same reason Samsung isnt selling well in China.

                          Too much competition from Oppo/Vivo.

                          Only in Europe(and US)is Samsung selling well because other Chinese companies are absent.

                            Samsung losing market share big time🤭
