Galaxy S8 to beat the S7 in sales, Samsung says
Samsung Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8+ will beat
their predecessors' sales record for the first year, said DJ Koh, Head of
Mobile Business at Samsung Electronics. That's despite the new S8 cost of
$750/€809, and S8+ price of $850/€909 - a significant increase over the S7 duo.
Samsung’s latest flagship is one of the most
hotly anticipated devices of 2017. Since it’s the first major smartphone
release after the Galaxy Note7 fiasco, the Korean company has high expectations
for its market performance.
Earlier this month analysts gave mixed
forecasts how the device will position itself on the market but DJ Koh
expressed optimism on Thursday, when talking to a local news agency.
Galaxy S8 is already available for pre-order
across many markets and time will tell if it really becomes as successful as
its maker hopes.
