this episode of android weekly is brought to you by domain.com so what do you think is next for old Sammy traditionally Samsung has had all the features possible in their smartphones plus the kitchen sink a strategy that is not going to augur well for them when they continue to compete with Chinese manufacturers who can do what they're doing just cheaper so what to do what to do think high-end premium or just go all Victoria Beckham posh one possibility for the future of Samsung is to focus exclusively on high-end products in a sense there's just little point in pursuing the low-end market smartphones have begun to exist as a commodity and indeed any generic company is now capable of putting on a random product with some decent specs add this to the fact that various Chinese OEMs are now dominating several key Asian markets with their cutthroat price points Samsung would be wise to just stop playing this destructive game entirely it will never be able to compete unless it severely reduces prices thus negatively affecting the bottom line with diminished profits even if Samsung does cut prices just how long can it resist the onslaught of smaller more nimble competitors with little to lose to offer up some support for the suggestion look no further than this graphic showing the Chinese market share revolution over the past year and it doesn't look good for Sami also consider that Apple has done quite well by focusing exclusively on the high-end market and even with its Apple watch despite reports of diminished sales predictions can't stymie the huge number of pre-orders received for a SmartWatch of all things there are definitely people with money to burn and if Samsung can be seen as a company with products on par with Apple suddenly even the fruit might have something to fear so now is the right time to talk about a book on reading called bold by Peter Diamandis and Steven Colter and it's all about inspiring entrepreneurs in the tech sector especially and they talk about something called exponential technologies and what they're referring to is not just a technology but a time and space where the industry is ripe for massive rapid growth hence the term exponential technologies so for example Facebook wouldn't have been possible to launch in 1995 even though the internet was up there was the infrastructure available to really scale Facebook the way they did in 2004-2005 they had to wait 10 years to really do that Instagram is another example Instagram is basically a photo app with filters at least that's what it was when it first came out and in 18 months it was sold for a billion dollars with no revenue model crazy that's an example of exponential technologies and what we're looking at is a point in time where it's perfectly ripe for a technology to just explode but first there has to be the infrastructure that's available so how does this relate to uncle Sammy well I think Samsung has got a look at what their advantages is if you look in my house here we have multiple Samsung products and i'm not talking about phones talking two washers dishwashers refrigerators monitors televisions you name it even cameras and there's a wonderful opportunity for samsung to exploit the Internet of Things which is really really ripe imagine if you had a really powerful incentive to buy multiple Samsung products your refrigerator your dishwasher your TV and monitor because they all communicate with each other in ways that only can be done in Samsung's ecosystem it's a powerful motivator to purchase this is why I bought an ipad because my iPad connects and communicates with my macbook pro a lot better than you know a samsung tab s would have done that's a pretty powerful thing come on samsung what do you think now I know what some of you might be thinking what about Tizen and Tizen is Samsung's own mobile operating system if Tizen can be established as a major platform Samsung can gradually shift its focus and slowly redirect its loyal customers to its in-house operating system in theory there's no real reason Samsung couldn't make the galaxy s6 Tizen edition similar to how HTC made the you see One m8 for Windows Phone if it costs less than the Google variant yet still feature the same specs and hardware it would be of immense interest to those who want the product but aren't willing to spend for it likewise the prevalence of a diverse range of Tizen devices would mean that its scope could be expanded beyond India and Bangladesh the two countries where the Samsung is that one is currently on sale and the gear SmartWatch series one potential area of Hope could be in truly budget friendly products like the Tizen running Samsung's at one which interestingly enough became the top-selling phone in Bangladesh for q1 and 2015 still as far as Android goes we feel it might be time for the Korean conglomerate to finally accept the changing times and devote itself to making a top-notch Android product with the best hardware software and support or else truly slim down the pickings now Samsung has been around for a long time making gobs of money so I don't think they're going anywhere anytime soon but maybe their days of being the very dominant Android smartphone manufacturer are going to be short-lived what do you think let me know in the comments below now do you guys know shoe money otherwise known as Jeremy shoemaker he's famous for making wads of money in Google Adsense in the early days now he's gone on to found many different companies and businesses and he told me that he does not go into a new business unless he can get the name of the business in a calm yeah won't go into the business at all unless egan gether calm he is very successful and thought that that was absolutely crucial why because no domain name extension tells your story with the same level of trust as a.com or.net domain name dot com and.net domain name extensions and Jack
