50 million Galaxy S 3, the planned 100 million Galaxy S 4 and the problem of DRAM - FrazPC.pl

Let’s start from the end, probably no one would have thought that largest DRAM manufacturer, ie Samsung , which accounts for over 50% of the world’s memory will be forced to buy the bones of competition, and by Bloomberg news reports, this is what happens, by the immense popularity among other Galaxy S 4 , Samsung DRAM must buy from local rivals, the company SK Hynix. There is certainly good news for the opposition, because higher demand means higher prices or longer waiting for the execution of the contract, and such as HTC and already has a problem with the components of the model One.

It seems ridiculous, but looking at it that Samsung is also forced to use the Galaxy S 4 600 Snapdragon platform from Qualcomm, gives you some insight as to what is the demand for this model. So say for yourselves the representatives of the company, who recently boasted that Galaxy S 3 has already sold a total of more than 50 million units (an increase of 10 million since January 2013), and looking at the preliminary results of the procurement of Galaxy S 4 , the younger brother should easily beat the record and reach up to 100 million units sold.

Interestingly

first reviews the Galaxy S 4 are not particularly flattering, yes it is a high-end smartphone, and it is still a good product, but on the background or even the HTC One Xperia With nothing amazing. Many reviewers also points to the fact that Samsung went a bit on the easy way out, and is based on the design of the Galaxy S 3, only slightly modifying it. Compared to the next iteration of the model, eg iPhone 4 to 4S, though it’s probably a bit exaggerated, but because the larger screen FullHD or give much more efficient SoC feel the differences. Finally, the positive feedback about the Galaxy S 4 spoke a site iFixit, which stripped smartphone into pieces and assessed his “repairability” for eight points on a 10-degree. In fact, the biggest problem is a screen that is integrated with the entire front unit, the rest of the SIM card slot / microSD, webcam, microphone, and a virtually separate components that are easier or more difficult to replace.

official sales in Poland started yesterday, and the suggested retail price of memory with a capacity of 16 GB is 2799 PLN. Currently there is only a version of the GT-i9505 with Snapdragon 600
