Samsung has a bit of an inferiority complex when it comes to . It is a manufacturer of mobile phone handsets . Largest in the world, but Samsung has been compared with the apple and found that often is lacking in one way or the other, either it was a plasticky device or lesson the hard knocks that its features as well . scroll to the eye does not always work as smoothly as expected , most of all, it is recognized that Samsung is the company that I'm too much of a complete device by Apple .
Gear demonstrated the potential of Samsung to break with the view that it is just as fast without Samsung is not the first company to release smartwatch and gear is not the first attempt in the market, but of smartwatch every manufacturer out there, Samsung is the only one that has a large user base and marketing oomph . Brand awareness actually get some traction gear is likely Samsung will show it can do something . Innovative and Buzzy and establish itself as a leader in the early to at the very least , it would have succeeded ; This time around, Apple is playing catch up.
Apple has a significant category of device in the future, but it is uncertain when it may turn up or that the product will do market watchers have speculated about the iWatch either late this year or in 2014 , while Samsung is faced with a multitude of competitors already in the market , including Sony , Pebble and Mars and chip maker Qualcomm launched its smartwatch of mercury, although they did not have the sales numbers they have. been generating plenty of buzz.
But whether Samsung will be able to create their own sales big question mark is the first gear will be limited to the purchase of the Company's Galaxy Note 3 phablet something to fall rapidly. The number of users that have the potential soon it will be compatible with other devices , but those too are limited to Samsung's high-end products such as Galaxy S and the Note , while I will allow Samsung to attract customers. and create an ecosystem of companies have anything close to Apple than the consumer is also suspected that the gear will attract a large audience , or that they only appeal to a small group of early adopters .
"At the end of the day, consumer attitudes are important here," Juniper Research analyst Nitin Bhas said, " Not all men have the same level of understanding of the technology [like Apple and Samsung. fanboys] .... Smartwatches is a big market , but compared to a smartphone or tablet , they are still a niche market. " .
Juniper estimates that -app enabled transport smartwatch will include only about 1 million this year, but jumped to 36 million by 2018 estimates, is considered the main voice of the future will come from Samsung and Apple said. Bhas other companies tacking marketing wearable all at about 75 million units in 2017 , which would make it . Smaller . Mobile phones, but also an area of interest for electronics manufacturers to deliver a smartphone at the same should reach 1.7 billion units in 2017 according to IDC.
Samsung launched on Wednesday in gear during the race. Colors IFA consumer electronics show in Berlin and broadcast simultaneously in New York smartwatch $ 299 will be available in the U.S. in October, it sports 1.63 -inch screen, super AMOLED , surrounded by a metal frame and a camera 1.9 megapixel camera embedded in the rubber gear runs Android and sync. on Galaxy smartphones and tablets , allowing users to do things like control their music without having to touch or check messages . Their cell phones while I work only with the 3 phablet soon it will be extended to S4 and Galaxy Note 2 .
The first version of the gear is not likely to change the game completely , partly because of the limitations of the out of doors, but inside , Samsung's sales have exploded over the gear may not be important when the company aims to market it throws attempted . All of Behind the push that it introduced the device until it shuts Samsung followed the same strategy with the Galaxy S, and focus has allowed it to dominate the market for smartphones by the time the third and fourth. the company sees significant growth area wearables . Moving forward, there is no doubt that it is already working on future designs , including models with a flexible display .
Samsung to admit that I tend to be a small market at first, JK Shin, Samsung's CEO and head of mobile business, the Company believes that Samsung may have sold two or three hours for the Galaxy . Galaxy 10 3 devices according to Wall Street Journal , and Dong hoon Chang , designer , head of Samsung's recently told CNET that in the near term , smartwatches as accessories for smartphones, something that is limited . their absorption .
" You never know what will happen in the future," Chang said, " now of course it is not as big as the smartphone market , but maybe in 2-3 years, it will become quite large . " .
Despite the obstacles, the transmission and limit the scope of Samsung at the very least . Have demonstrated that they can build something . Innovative without looking to Apple as a model , it has set a new bar to meet in wearables , and it 's up to Apple to make the next move , Samsung is confident that will not be sitting still .
