With better internals and improved camera, Samsung has found the marketing cry for its Galaxy S9 and Galaxy S9 Plus, but as we have reached the number ‘9’ of the company’s prolific smartphone lineup, it might be time to bid farewell to the old naming scheme.
In an interview, Samsung’s mobile head Koh Dong-Jim talks about the potential change to the Galaxy S moniker, so we should prepare ourselves that the next flagship might not necessarily be called the Galaxy S10.
In a ‘one on one’ interview between The Investor and Samsung’s head of mobile, the company has actually been planning to change the naming scheme for the next Galaxy S model.
There was an early rumor that suggested the Galaxy S10 was going to be called the Galaxy X, but that would create a lot of confusion since the Galaxy X is apparently the name of Samsung’s first and upcoming foldable display smartphone. While both of the Galaxy S9 and Galaxy S9 Plus might appear like iterative updates over their predecessors, the Galaxy S10 could become one of the biggest smartphone releases from Samsung thanks to its potential hardware specifications.
It might be the first phone to provide support for UFS 3.0 storage, which is going to be much faster than UFS 2.1, allowing for stuff like video recording at very high resolutions and at very high frame rates without stuttering. Samsung is also going to be announcing its foldable display smartphone very soon, and this announcement could provide a stable establishment of what the public should expect from high-end phone manufacturing companies as far as these portable devices are concerned.
Do you think the Galaxy S10 is going to possess a different name when it is announced next year?
