Known is by anyone with a little sight in the market that the Samsung Galaxy are terminals that lose value in a somewhat hasty way, going to find them for less than half in squeaky offers a year after their launch, to the disappointment of your launch buyers. With the Samsung Galaxy S6 it was not going to be less, and even more so when Samsung is fearing for its flagship that seems not to report as much income as it should, or at least as expected. That is why Samsung has decided to lower the price of the Samsung Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge by around € 100.
This has come on the heels of another rather dire fiscal quarter result, the fifth consecutive decline in earnings, and it appears that Galaxy S6 sales are not helping at all, as we have been reporting for months. The mobile division of the Korean giant has suffered a fall of nothing more and nothing less than 37,6 percent in revenue, all due to the over-selling and over-manufacturing of Galaxy S6 Edge terminals, which left the sales of the normal edition of the Galaxy S6 in minor cloth.
It is logical that this price drop smells bad, but it is not surprising, unlike with the iPhone, it is easy to find on the market, either second-hand or on sale, the Samsung Galaxy on duty, just a few months after its launch at prices ranging between 50% of its launch price, And that is something that the public likes less and less, who realize that they buy a product at a fairly high price and that it is devalued at a dizzying rate, which is not the case with iPhones, which maintain some of the highest second-hand prices on the market if we compare the range of terminals and the age of the device.
Unlike this 37% drop in Samsung Galaxy, iPhones have sold 35% more this fiscal quarter. What some leave for what others collect, the data is quite revealing. In addition, other really competent companies have entered the Android scene, which not only offer the same, but better, at a much more affordable price. It seems that the Samsung Galaxy had been above their real market price for a while, and this is penalizing the Korean company, let's not forget, it lives off the huge number of low-end phones that flood the telephone companies, at a price as low as its quality, but that would be nothing without a Samsung Galaxy S behind giving brand value.
Why? Wasn't that what people asked for?
It was very clear .. And more than it will have to download, they are copied in iPhone designs and they intend to sell it to you more expensively! Hahaha, then they tell us that if we pay € 800 or € 1000 for an iPhone .. But Esque the s6 edge they have had it at € 1050 !!! Awesome, that is to deceive the consumer. We can not compare quality of materials and warranty is the best at that
This is what it takes to be an (expensive) iphone substitute
I bought my mother a Samsung galaxy s6 edge color Emerald 128 gigabytes for 1050 euros as they say above ... (I gave it to her with all the illusion in the world for her birthday), she has been with it for 3 days and is having Wi-Fi problems (It is not the router, my ignore 6 and my father's s3 goes well with the wifi), and others like the coverage (the three of us have Movistar with fiber optics with 100 megabytes) ...
I don't know, I think they wanted to copy the strategy of high prices and premium materials and they backfired ... I must admit that the S6 is beautiful for its materials and it feels good in the hand ... but no I change my iPhone 6 for the s6.
In several months we will have the s6 for 300 euros, which happens with the s5 that is for 150-200 euros.
Greetings (I have written this comment with my old man on iPhone 3G with iOS 4.2.1
Android devalues very fast
I'm peeing…
It will always be a Korean (not cheap) copy of Iphone ...
If it is not an iPhone it is not an iPhone .. The most cheap copies
It is not because of a disaster in sales, it is because an imbalance does not occur between the prices of the s6 and the new s6 + and the note 5
For 4 galaxys they give you 1 iPhone
The galaxy s6 is worth what it costs. It is the first mobile to incorporate a 14nm processor, ram ddr4, the new ufs2 specification of flash memories, a spectacular camera, double wireless charging standard and an excellent design and finishes (the edge or even an exercise in style, is a advance in the industrial design and manufacturing of a terminal). The performance is up to par and that is paid the same as with an iPhone. You may like more or less its design, so, etc. but the price is justified: incorporating the most advanced technologies on the market comes at a price. Unfortunately, Samsung's problem is not its galaxy s6 or the A, Alpha or Note range (terminals of excellent quality and performance that are also worth what they cost), they are the rest of its low-medium ranges of poor quality and terrible performance that so bad press have been given to android…. motorolas, huaweis, etc have arrived and they are eating the wide and massive market of the lower-middle range where Samsung had no competition and towards cash.
Of course, if it is not an iPhone it is not an iPhone
Of course, if it is not an iPhone it is not an iPhone
The strategy of looking so much like the iPhone because even the colors I copy did not work for him ...

The s6 is an incredible terminal. The finishes look good and its features take your breath away but… personally I have always thought that this phone lacks personality. It does not overflow that power that I noticed with the s2 or s3. Samsung is doing things well again but it has plenty of copying the design. I think samsung doesn't need to do those things.
A greeting.
Normal, if it is worth the same as an iphone that you buy ?, hahaha.
For the same price it has twice the Ram, twice the resolution, twice the megapixel and an innovative screen ... I have it clear
You can already buy it because as they don't sell it, they will reduce it a lot.
An alcatel is worth more than a Guatemalan hahahahahahaha
Alberto Córdoba Carmona «About € 100»… I said, and fixed that only for the 32GB model namas, the rest «we want more of you»
Poooooos that they put it THERE
Definitely a lot of blind fanboy, I think they have neither seen nor picked up an s6 and as always sending the same judgments as always ... I have an i6 and I don't change it for anything (only for an i6 plus) but it cannot be denied that Samsung kicks it a thousand times, you don't have to be blind or fanbo without reason
A thousand kicks from Samsung, and 10000000000000000 gives iPhone and taquito.
i am about to sell my iphone that boring many restrictions with its ios system which is disgusting and does not support anything that makes it fome.
It's true, I did try an S6 and it really made progress. I have had every iphones since they came out and for the first time I see a Samsung outperform an iPhone.
Well, regardless of the "monster" of hardware that the S6 has, it is useless with the operating system since Android is a general-use system that must run on any device and therefore, an S6 does not matter as a generic phone
Easy Alejandro Jano do the jailbreak and problem solved how they are going to change IOS x something Chinese X God !!
I am an iPhone 6 user, 2 days ago I had a Galaxy S6 edge in my hands and I thought I saw a much more advanced equipment than the previous ones, already with a unibody terminal and an excellent screen resolution, camera, etc. But I still don't change iOS.
What a pringao that I am ...
muhahaha xD
I have an iPhone 5, but it is true that the Galaxy S6 is a phone cucumber. Even so, it continues to have the same problem as its predecessors ... That it works under Android ... And before the defenders of said OS jump to the jugular or call me a fanboy, just point out that at work, I work with an Android tablet that has a 4-core processor and 2 Gb of Ram. And I just want to say that the tablet performs disgustingly bad. It hangs, some apps are very slow, it has WiFi problems, the screen detection is horrible, and so on ... On the other hand, I have also worked with iPads and they are a real joy ... So no matter how much cucumbers Samsung does , you will always have the trouble of using an Android OS ...
SalU2!
At the end of the year they will end up costing half the original price and their operating system will never be updated. I had an s5 and it never got updated
I had the iPhone 3s and 4s and from there I changed the Samsung S5 and I am super comfortable with the speed and quality of the camera, the operating system runs very fast. I put a 64GB SD card in it and there is no problem whatsoever. I really adore it.
The Samsung S6 if it looks a lot like the iphone 6 ... but not only in the image, but you can no longer put SD cards and you can not change the battery. I think that was Samsung's big mistake. I hope they return that in their next version.
hahahaha that pathetic ... disastrous they say! a company that is a fan of another company that has neither innovations nor na de na. they just copy. jajajajja I piss with laughter go, have you heard? hahahaha these are the clients that Apple was talking about officially… .yes yes, what Apple said, that their clients are stupid…. hahahahaha go on
Throw that wuea away Alejandro Jano Tex janito nice ass I'll change it for my cecadora Jjjai
Did you exchange that w to your awela?
Fanaticism blinds you ... I do not see bad that the best price for the user goes down, when the new iPhone comes out the old ones will go down is normal it would not make sense for it to cost the same ... I wish no phone would cost more than € 200 they are overvalued and companies and businesses take advantage. A mobile will never be better than a PC or desktop and yet they cost the same and even more.
Look at cucumber Juan Alberto Vargas Mora
Pinhead Misfits you would have taken advantage of it !!!! The big sale
I have the same opinion
Nor do they buy plastic
Well, who is going to want to buy garbage like that?
There is only one iPhone and it has no competition, it only competes with itself. Whoever buys a Samsung does not care whether it is the s6 or whether it is an LG or an Xperia. And you will not overpay for the same. Apple continues with its less is more policy and is doing well. It is proven that with less Ram and less processor the iPhone works better. Many people say that they find incompatibilities with the iPhone. Well, it happens to me that every time I take an Android from a family member or friend, I get lost and I see many bugs and things that iOS has resolved for a long time. Those of Samsung innovate to innovate and it is not doing them well at all. Perhaps Apple's policy of going slowly but steadily turns out to be better. And in sight it is.
The problem with Samsung is its operating system, this Android is an operating system garbage and that is why they are not sold.
they would only have launched the Edge
And why will it be ... I am left with my iPhone 6
no because i like android no samsung = P
The day that Samsung stops putting Android into their Smartphones and creates their own OS, it will be the day that I start taking this company seriously.
Samsung has made the S6 a phone to attract iPhone users, but forgot about the users of its S3, S4 and S5 who prefer to be able to change the battery, put an SD memory and have a waterproof phone. Particularly I will stay with my S5, the S6 is not attractive to me. If in the S7 we have a robust waterproof phone again and a more sporty design, I will go for it.
