The performance of Q1 Galaxy S7 series is way up in the previous two generations, the company's sales, shipments, profits and market share are rising, and as a result analysts have been quick to calibrate their predictions for the company for 2016 . share prices have also been improved on the back of this positive news. By all accounts, the Galaxy S7 and S7 edge Galaxy have been well recevied by consumers, pre-orders were, according to statements by Samsung, better than expected, particularly consumers seemed to express a preference for the Galaxy model edge S7.
By contrast, Apple has experienced one of its worst quarters in history, the first Q1 with a market share and declining sales over time in living memory. That said, as CEO, Tim Cook said, even with this decline Apple is still beating all others in terms of raw sales figures and profits; which is a bad quarter for Apple's standards, but for anyone else who would be the time to break out the champagne. Still, the future is not bright either.
What you might have thought the iPhone 6s, Apple is betting big on the iPhone 7. According to reports, the company has put in orders for 78 million iPhone units in July - the largest ever. The company feels clearly what is coming to the table later this year will be a success among consumers, despite the overall design claims the handset will not be so different from the 2015 6s iPhone and iPhone Plus 6s.
Major changes will apparently be to the camera, which is expected to be a double-lens Plus models, while the base model iPhone 7 units get OIS first added. There is talk of an incredibly powerful A10 CPU, RAM and improved mass, high-definition audio through a headset port remodeled. Besides that Apple could add in an internal storage unit higher as well, bringing the highest level to more than 200 GB.
Is convenient, however, not expected things to change too. Reports suggest that Apple is changing to a design refresh cycle of three years, ie next year - 10 years - iPhone will be benefiting from a redesign complete ground-up.
features expected iPhone 10th anniversary include: OLED display new technology, new chassis design, improved image, a new CPU and lots of additional extras like potentially including TouchID on the handset display.
This has led some analysts to believe Apple iPhone line, once again, FLATLINE during the latter part of 2016 and early 2017. To be honest, this does not make all that much sense. Apple has always sold a lot of iPhones during Q4, even when the design is very similar to what I had before. However, sales of Apple's iPhone not stagnate in Q1 2016 - this could happen again if the company launches another iPhone Cell 6-style.
Google I / O 2016 saw the big G has announced a lot of plans for 2016/17, including the arrival of Android N with his great game for virtual reality space with Google Daydream - the platform on which the experiences will take place all VR apps go forward. Google also unveiled more messaging applications, a new smart-hub called Google homepage, which is basically a carbon copy of Amazon Eco.
This year, Google I / O 2016 event was an appropriate exposure compared to last year, it was a bit boring. Google is clearly on the road to great things in 2016/17 and has been a big emphasis on VR and how they handled within Android, and all things that come with it, such as headdresses and peripheral controllers. The Big G also confirmed that it will bring Google Play-support Chrome, which is a huge deal. Even more so when one takes into account the recent news of Apple MacBooks beating Chromebooks in 2016.
Apple WWDC 2016 was a fairly busy affair in which the company announced major updates for four of its current platforms: IOS 10 MacOS, watchOS 3 and TVOS. There was no new hardware, however, despite a lot of rumors Apple will launch a Smart Speaker Siri.
Siri and Maps made feature, however - Apple has opened both developers and this is significant. Not only because it demonstrates a change of course the software how Apple does, but also because of the improvements will almost certainly bring to both.
Siri has always been a dog compared to Google and Alexa now Amazon. The same goes Maps vs Google Maps. But the advent of developer access is likely to see the two services improve dramatically within the next few weeks and months and, in the case of Siri, this opens the possibility of other devices, peripherals for her to live inside - devices like Apple rumored Siri speaker.
There has been a lot of rumors, leaks, and reports on the iPhone 7, but the last two notes to investors of prominent, reliable and unnervingly accurate analyst at KGI Securities Ming-Chi Kuo told that the iPhone 7 will be an incremental update that is not offered outlets for consumers weight. Predicts that Apple's performance for the whole of 2016 will be poor, and we'll have to wait until 2017 for Apple to completely revamp and overhaul the iPhone product.
Therefore, it does not sound very good for Apple, but it sounds like the roles have changed to an extension and Samsung could clean this year instead. However, there is much at stake and there is still a lot of rumors making the rounds about the iPhone 7 will not arrive until September, of course, but in the meantime we will see how the rumors compared with the current generation of Samsung Galaxy S7 it is doing so well.
