      Pretty sure the S26 was selling record numbers for them.

      To be not turning a profit despite how expensive their phones are and being the only serious android manufacturer in the US, you’re either lying, or so incredibly poorly mismanaged it’s gotta set a new record somehow

        being the only serious android manufacturer in the US,

        …? Does “serious” only include companies that make the worst and also most expensive phones or what?

          Ask an average non-tech person about phones and they’ll only know Apple and Samsung. They can suck but they’re the only company that’s serious about brand recognition and consistently making new generations of phpnes

            The non-tech people I know have been buying Google phones for years. Which have their own issues, but as products they seem light-years ahead of Samsung.

            Op seems to be denying that Google phones exist, or that anyone knows about them? Which is odd to me, they’re quite popular actually.

      Thats not what it says. They say the single units are not profitable, as in it costs more to make them than they sell for
