Samsung S22 One UI 5.0 update

Samsung has recently shared the earning report for the third quarter of 2022, confirming a 31% profit decline. However, the company says that its smartphone unit has performed well, especially the Samsung Galaxy S22 series, which is more profitable than last year’s Galaxy S21 series.

Samsung launched the Galaxy S22, S22+, and S22 Ultra smartphones at the beginning of this year. The devices arrived at higher prices compared to their predecessors and despite this, they sold like hotcakes worldwide.

However, this does not mean that the company has sold more models of Galaxy S22 than Galaxy S21. Samsung might want to say that the customers liked the high-end Galaxy S22+ and Galaxy S22 Ultra models over the Galaxy S21 devices, which made the company more money.

Samsung Galaxy S22 profitable 

One of the reasons for increasing sales of the Galaxy S22 series is the inclusion of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chipset in more markets. Samsung launched the Galaxy S21 series with Exynos chipset in major markets like South Korea and India but with Galaxy S22 the conditions get better as these countries also get the Snapdragon model, which increased the sales of phones in these countries.

Samsung has also improved the devices in other aspects, such as the design of the Galaxy S22 Ultra. The Galaxy S22 Ultra arrived with a completely unique design and an in-built slot to hold S-Pen. The design is beautiful, which also conversed customers to put their money on this pricey smartphone.

In addition to this, the company made a major switch in its software update policy this year. With the launch of Galaxy S22 devices, Samsung unveiled that the devices will get four major Android OS upgrades and five years of security patch updates.

There are many more reasons to purchase the high-end Galaxy S22 models instead of the Galaxy S21 series. All these elements significantly contributed to make Galaxy S22 series profitable for Samsung.

Apple US DOJ iphone monopoly

The US Department of Justice (DOJ) has filed a lawsuit against tech giant Apple, accusing the company of maintaining an illegal monopoly in the smartphone market. The DOJ accuses Apple of violating the Sherman Antitrust Act.

The suit claims Apple has restricted third-party app growth, limited cloud and game-streaming services, forced continued iPhone purchases for messaging, diminished non-Apple smartwatch functionality, and prevented third-party digital wallet use.

In a press conference, US Attorney General Merrick Garland highlighted issues such as the App Store’s fee system, degraded third-party accessory experiences, and relies heavily on Messages. The case, backed by 16 state Attorneys General, could have significant implications for Apple’s business practices and the broader tech industry.

The US DOJ said in a release about the suit:

Apple exercises its monopoly power to extract more money from consumers, developers, content creators, artists, publishers, small businesses, and merchants, among others.”

Apple also responded by defending its innovation and user-focused approach, warning that the lawsuit could hinder its ability to deliver the seamless technology integration users expect. Check the entire response of Apple below.

At Apple, we innovate every day to make technology people love — designing products that work seamlessly together, protect people’s privacy and security, and create a magical experience for our users. This lawsuit threatens who we are and the principles that set Apple products apart in fiercely competitive markets.

If successful, it would hinder our ability to create the kind of technology people expect from Apple — where hardware, software, and services intersect. It would also set a dangerous precedent, empowering the government to take a heavy hand in designing people’s technology. We believe this lawsuit is wrong on the facts and the law, and we will vigorously defend against it.”
