How to Improve Sales When Things Aren’t Going Well?
Lowering the price is the most direct way. There’s nothing that can’t be sold with a price reduction. A smartphone that was originally priced at $10,000 might have been a “smart tax,” but after a significant drop of a few thousand dollars, it turned into a desirable item. Apple is a typical example of this. The iPhone 15 series is a prime example of this dramatic turnaround. The reason behind the sharp price drop of the iPhone 15 series is due to unsatisfactory features and overly high pricing. Another mobile phone manufacturer facing the same issue is Samsung.
Samsung is often referred to as the “diving king,” and now, just like Samsung, Apple also shares this “reputation.” The Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra, which was positioned as a flagship device earlier this year, has seen a price drop comparable to Apple’s. On third-party platforms, it has already dropped by about $2000. With such a significant price reduction, perhaps only Apple can compete in the entire smartphone market. It’s quite amusing that Apple is now the unexpected contender for price reductions along with Samsung.
The Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra, known as the flagship model, boasts top-tier specifications in almost every respect! Firstly, in terms of the display, the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra features a 6.8-inch vertical screen. This marks the first time in recent years that Samsung has used a flat screen on a high-end device, suggesting a departure from curved screens. The combination of a large screen with ultra-narrow bezels results in an extremely immersive visual experience, making the lit screen resemble a small-sized tablet. As for specifications, features like LTPO, ultra-high brightness, and excellent eye care technology are all supported.
In terms of imaging, the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra might seem to have regressed by reducing the optical zoom from 10x to 5x. However, this is actually an upgrade because Samsung understands that a 5x optical zoom is more practical than a 10x one, which has been proven true. Therefore, the imaging capabilities of the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra have actually been enhanced rather than downgraded. Specifically, the camera setup includes a 200-megapixel primary sensor, a 12-megapixel ultra-wide lens, a 50-megapixel 5x optical zoom lens, and a 10-megapixel 3x optical zoom lens. Despite the absence of the 10x optical zoom, the 5x optical zoom maintains the quality of the previous generation.
In terms of battery life, the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra is equipped with a 5000mAh battery. Thanks to the balanced power consumption of the third-generation Snapdragon 8 flagship chipset, the battery can last a whole day without any issues. The only downside is the relatively weak charging speed, which, however, is not as bad as some may think. In addition, the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra also features the S Pen stylus, making it useful for users who frequently jot down notes on their phones. It is worth noting that the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra is the only phone in the industry to come with an integrated stylus.
Apart from adopting a flat screen design, the frame of the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra is now made of titanium metal and features a straighter edge compared to the previous generation. Additionally, it supports features such as IP68 dust and water resistance and Corning Gorilla Glass, leaving no aspect overlooked. Notably, the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra is also venturing into the realm of AI, with features like Galaxy AI including instant search, real-time translation during calls, note assistance, and image recognition.
Currently, the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra is undergoing price reductions. As a high-end flagship device that was recently released, this model has already dropped by $2000. Such a significant price reduction may only be rivaled by Apple.
