Samsung surpasses Apple in tablet sales in Spain

Apple's reign in the world of mobility is increasingly debated. Companies like Samsung GoogleThey are not making things easy for those from Cupertino. The iPhone 5 phone was the first to notice the effects of the competition and it is not convincing like the previous models, but now the iPad has turned the tune, at least when it comes to tablet sales in Spain.

It has been learned that the GFK company reported that, for the first time, Samsung has exceeded Apple in sales share. The sum of the tablets that the Korean company adds 24% while those of the North American is falling by 21%, which is very good, but it makes him lose the predominant position in Spain. Therefore, the winds of change are blowing, at least “Spanish-style”… But the truth is that this data is important, since it shows the rise of the Galaxy Tab range, something that seems to continue.

The reasons for this change of course

There is no single reason for this, since there has not been an event that has shaken the market so greatly. Therefore, there are several facts that have allowed Samsung to exceed its sales share in Spain. One of the most important may be that the product range of the creators of the Galaxy is greater and, therefore, there are all kinds of options. An example is that it offers different screen sizes (10, 8,9, 7 inches ...), hardware inside and even usability since it has a model like Galaxy Note 10.1 that allows the use of S Pen (stylus ). Therefore, almost all users can find what they are looking for in your product range.

On the contrary, Apple until the recent arrival of its iPad Mini model, only had a product on the market (of which there were different versions due to their storage capacity, but nothing more). This has its positive side since it allows the company to focus its efforts, but it forces users to choose only one option and, obviously, sometimes it is not enough.

Another reason is that Samsung is increasingly a company that has greater brand recognition in all the markets in which it operates ... which are many. Due to its advertising campaigns, quality of its products - be careful, here Apple has a bit in favor since iPad is an excellent product - and innovation (yes, it does and an example is Galaxy Note) it has earned a reputation. In addition, the implicit recognition of important company granted by Apple itself by taking the rivalry to court, it may also have favored the Koreans.

Finally issues such as price, it is possible to find cheapest Asian company models that those of Apple and, even in offers (and here we refer to the free market, not the subsidized one), it will also have influenced ... but what is certain is that the domain at this time in the market for tablets is Samsung and, quite possibly this will be the case for a time. Are you more than Galaxy Tab or iPad

    It is something obvious, due to the high value of the apple tablet, and as people are based on the number of cores and clock frequency, they prefer Samsung ... there are few intelligent people who know that the ipad works much better ... android hurts tablets

      works better for what? to watch videos and read books?!? Be honest, do you know everything that can be done with a Galaxy Note 10.1? The S pen will open a world of possibilities for you and for the first time a tablet can be so productive also with its multitasking you do not know how it helps, I will never use notebooks again of any kind, you? Would you use your Ipad like that ???? I don't think so, keep watching videos

    How bad Spain will be. First place Android and Samsung, with their miserable copies of Apple. Nobody disputes that in a short time they will also be the first in tablets. Just as they arrived on cell phones. Haven't you seen the earnings reports for each company? Apple earns far more than all of these combined. I think Apple neither cares nor cares about being second. As long as your business continues as it is. Wonderful. Samsung, keep giving away gadgets. Google, keep giving away your operating system.

    Hahahaha, I break it with the comments, small two elements. Apparently in Japan they are also very stupid ... or you are stupid. If android is a pity on tablets, it is because you have not seen a Nexus 10, it gives a thousand turns to the junk of Apple and it works like a charm. That is if it is a tablet, not a toy like the crap that apple makes.
