      The results will be different for Q2 of 2015 where we can see actually how much S6/S6E has sold/shipped.

                        Anonymous, 29 Apr 2015Who cares???? It is about making good products and money, so who is making the most $$...The other divisions of Samsung care, since Samsung mobile orders parts from its sister divisions.

                        The more smartphones Samsung sells, the greater the other Samsung divisions can benefit from economies of scale to lower production costs and increase profitability.
                        If you read the report, all the other divisions of Samsung are making significant YoY profit increases due to the high sales volumes of Samsung Mobile and their other customers.

                        Also, I don't see why you should care about a company's profitability unless you're a shareholder.

                              Anonymous, 29 Apr 2015Year-on-year, their market share collapsed from 31% to 24%. Worrying. That's because other companies are selling more phone than they did last year.

                              In terms of absolute volume, Samsung's sales stayed flat.

                                    Great job. Truthfully, Samsung never really lost the crown. Being outsold one quarter of 2014 doesn't remove the fact that Samsung dominated the entire year.

                                    Samsung offers smartphones to cover all types of customers. Everyone doesn't care about high-end, metal devices. Some individuals just want a mid-range, functional device that fits their needs. Samsung gives them that.
