Samsung has just made a big hit to the smartphone market with its two giant S8 and S8+. The Galaxy S8+ is expected to sell more than its smaller brother. Here are the reasons…
Samsung Galaxy S8+ to sell more than the S8?
Smartphones with touchscreens have conquered the mobile market over feature phones. The trend now is that they are getting bigger and bigger. Then we end up having a great line of large-screen devices or phablets. Buyers want their phones to have larger screens for multiple features and functions. While Apple is slowly making bigger iPhones, Samsung takes the lead to release massive-screen phones. Although large, the Galaxy S8 is predicted to get weaker sales than its bigger brother S8+. Let’s see what makes Samsung Galaxy S8+ more favorable!
First of all, in terms of display, there is nothing different between the two flagships except for their size. Both features Super AMOLED Infinity Displays with a resolution of 1440 x 2960 pixels. The S8 sports a 5.8-inch screen while the S8+ has a 6.2-inch display. Samsung Galaxy S8 and S8+ displays have been rated as the best of all. Besides the size, the only difference is their battery life. Samsung S8 and S8+ are fueled by 3000mAh and 3500mAh batteries respectively. So what is likely to make the S8+ more popular?
Recently, Yuanta Securities Korea has reported the potential sales of two Samsung flagships. According to that, the Galaxy S8+ is expected to outsell the S8. By the end of this year, there will be more than 27.1 million S8+ units sold, which comprises 53.9% of the total sales of both. The Korean Securities firm points out several reasons for this higher demand. First of all, “larger screens are better for media consumption and mobile gaming”. Next, there will be a stronger variant of 6GB RAM and 128GB ROM for the S8+ in Korea and China. This is more ideal when using the DeX mobile-to-PC transition tool.
Samsung Galaxy S8+ will do better than the S6 and S7 Edge?
If Yuanta Securities Korea is right, this will not be the first time Samsung observed a higher sale for its larger phones. The Galaxy S6 Edge and S7 Edge both outsell their smaller brothers as a historical fact. Do you think Galaxy S8+ will get more people to buy than the S8?
