The Samsung Galaxy S8 was presented at the end of last month, but it is still not for sale in Spain right now, although it will be available next week. However, we now know that Samsung Galaxy S8 it is a more valuable smartphone than the Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge.
Newer, more valuable
If you have a Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge, you have surely wondered if it is interesting to switch to the new Samsung Galaxy S8. If not, it is also easy for you to wonder if it is better to buy the Galaxy S8 or save some money by buying the Galaxy S7 Edge. Be that as it may, the IHS Markit company has analyzed how much each of the smartphone's components costs to determine what the total value of the mobile is, adding an extra cost for manufacturing. And the conclusion is simple. The value of the mobile is U.S. dollar 307,5.
Galaxy S8 more valuable than Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge
The key to the company's new flagship is that the cost of the smartphone is higher than the cost of the Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge. This is most remarkable because it means that Samsung is offering us something else in this smartphone. Instead of settling for a cheaper cost in the mobile, we find a more complete terminal, in which there are even additions with respect to the previous smartphone, and therefore involves the creation of one of the mobiles whose cost of manufacturing is highest in the entire market.
By the way, the component most valuable of all the smartphone is the screen. The cost of manufacturing the screen amounts to 85 dollars. Let us bear in mind that it is a display with Super AMOLED technology with Quad HD resolution, and that it is also a curved screen. It is large format, and integrates the entire touch interface. That is why if the screen breaks, we will have to make a large outlay to replace it. Not only because of what a technician would charge us to replace it, but because of the fact that it is a very high quality component.
