What is Wrong with Samsung? - Android Weekly

2014-06-01
welcome back to Android Weekly my name is Jace and this past week was a slow news week in the world of Android that's why I thought I would come out here in this glorious day and talk to you about what is wrong with Samsung I didn't swear there I just like to go makes me feel better well that didn't work out too well because the bugs were eating me alive but that won't stop me from sharing with you what I think Samsung needs to do right right now how many people do you know that have the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 and don't love it I don't know anyone that's right they pioneered the phablet market as we know it they know how to create sexy products that market themselves that get people talking about them they can do it but they're inconsistent Samsung who designed this who thought this would look good on my wrist we need a consistent design language that is distinctly Samsung do you remember that ad from a couple years ago where Samsung called it the next best thing when they were referring to the Samsung Galaxy s3 and they created this great ad where they were suggesting that the iPhone was your parents phone and the new hit phone was the Galaxy series phones that's right but you know what those marketing executives executives that produce that are now gone to Motorola yeah so they're gone and we're not getting a consistent message anymore I mean with the release of the Samsung Galaxy s5 there was a whole bunch of conflicting leaks proving that Samsung is not managing their message and then three months later they come up with another so called s5 flagship phone that is not a consistent message that just pisses people off we need a consistent message from you Samsung number three I think Samsung should release Tison that's right set it free let it fly now for those of you don't know Tizen is Samsung's alternative mobile operating system that could one day compete with Android I'm not suggesting that Samsung should do away with Android altogether possibly release Tizen on a select number of phones in a select particular market let's Japan or Korea for example which have very strong mobile cultures and potentially build up a marketplace around those phones and see how it goes putting all your eggs in one basket for Android could be a bad choice in the long term Samsung has the manufacturing power to do that release it now in a small market see how it goes number four and by far the most important is all about why that's right there is a fantastic book called start with y that deals with this very topic it's by author simon Sinek and you can search on YouTube for some fantastic talks to you gives you a summary of its book but it's all about how individuals families and businesses if they want to be successful they have to start with why why do they do what they do some of you're gonna say well chase Samsung does what it does to make money that's what all companies do no no no that is a result that is not a lie that's not why Samsung executives and designers and engineers get up in the morning no why do they do what they do what is their reason for being in business so for example Steve Jobs is very good at this and it has infiltrated the Apple culture if you asked Steve Jobs why do you do what you do without missing a beat he would say I want to change the world by creating a bicycle for the mind he meant it in his mind and heart and you knew it he lived it and that showed in the products that he created not all of you like Apple products but you can't deny that Steve Jobs knew his why and he became one of the most successful business technologists ever because of it thanks for watching and were tardy my name is Jace loved are connected to here on Google+ or Twitter I read all your comments out replies and I will answer the ones that I ten I would love for you to put your questions if you have any Android questions over in the Android of 30 forums I'm much more likely to use them in Android Q&A show you don't wanna forget about my brothers and Angela Josh Joe and the tech ninja Kevin Chris and lon yes we're working for you to try and get the create the best Android content we can and should see you next week
