Samsung Follows Suit
Windows 10 – A New Operating System
6 October 20145K Retina iMac vs Mac Pro, Which One?
24 October 2014Earlier on this year, we blogged about the disappointing news that Sony was pulling out of the laptop market. Its Vaio laptops provided an alternative to Apple’s MacBook range and gave the Windows user a chance to work from a stylish machine.
When Sony pulled out Samsung started to take its place with some stylish laptops but much to our disappointment they are following Sony’s lead and withdrawing from the Chromebook and laptop market across Europe.
On sales alone the decision is understandable. Samsung isn’t even in the top 5 vendors, a list dominated by HP, Dell and Lenovo. Samsung is a major player however in the smartphone and tablet market and research says this is where the consumer market is moving.
For business customers losing another major player like Samsung is a real blow. The design and affordability of their products was a welcome change from the standard laptop and we are sorry to see them leave the market.
