History of Samsung Phones

Samsung, a South Korean conglomerate, has been a key player in the mobile phone industry for decades. Samsung's journey in mobile phones began in the 1980s with car phones and early analog models. However, it was in the early 2000s that Samsung started making significant strides in the mobile market.

Early Years: 2000s

Samsung's first notable entry into the mobile phone market was the SGH-600, launched in 1999, which won several awards for its design. The early 2000s saw Samsung focusing on feature phones with models like the SGH-T100, the first phone to use a thin-film transistor active matrix LCD display, and the SCH-V200, one of the earliest phones with a built-in camera.

The big leap came in 2009 with the introduction of the Samsung Galaxy, their first Android smartphone. The Galaxy marked the beginning of Samsung's commitment to the Android ecosystem, positioning it as a strong competitor against other smartphone giants.

Rise to Prominence: 2010s

The launch of the Samsung Galaxy S in 2010 marked Samsung's entry into the high-end smartphone market. The Galaxy S series quickly became popular due to its high-quality displays, powerful processors, and innovative features. Each subsequent release saw significant improvements, establishing Samsung as a leading smartphone manufacturer.

The Galaxy Note series, introduced in 2011, created a new category of devices called "phablets" with its large display and the S Pen stylus. The Note series appealed to users seeking productivity features in a smartphone.

Samsung also explored various other series, including the Galaxy A series, targeting mid-range markets, and the Galaxy J series, aimed at budget-conscious consumers. This segmentation allowed Samsung to cater to a broad audience.

Innovations and Market Leadership: 2020s

Samsung continued to innovate in the 2020s, focusing on foldable technology with the Galaxy Z Fold and Z Flip series. The Galaxy Z Fold, first introduced in 2019, featured a foldable display, offering users a tablet-sized screen in a smartphone form factor. The Z Flip, launched in 2020, provided a compact, clamshell design with a foldable screen.

Samsung's emphasis on camera technology, display quality, and battery life kept its flagship Galaxy S and Note series at the forefront of the market. The Galaxy S20 Ultra, introduced in 2020, featured a groundbreaking 108MP camera and 100x Space Zoom.

Differentiation of Samsung Phone Ranges

  1. Galaxy S Series: These are flagship devices with cutting-edge technology, high-quality displays, top-tier processors, and advanced camera systems. They are aimed at users seeking the latest and greatest in smartphone technology.

  2. Galaxy Note Series: Known for its large display and the S Pen stylus, the Note series is targeted at productivity-focused users who need a powerful device for work and creative tasks.

  3. Galaxy Z Series: This includes foldable phones like the Z Fold and Z Flip. The Z Fold series offers a tablet-like experience, while the Z Flip series focuses on compactness and portability.

  4. Galaxy A Series: Mid-range smartphones offering a balance of performance and affordability. The A series includes models with good displays, decent cameras, and reliable performance, catering to a broad audience.

  5. Galaxy M Series: Budget-friendly devices with large batteries and basic features, aimed at price-sensitive consumers and emerging markets.

Samsung's extensive range of smartphones in 2024 ensures there is a device for every type of user in the UK. The flagship Galaxy S24 series offers cutting-edge technology and premium features, while the Galaxy Z series continues to innovate with foldable designs. The Galaxy A and M series provide options for mid-range and budget-conscious consumers, respectively. This strategic differentiation allows Samsung to maintain its position as a leading smartphone manufacturer globally.

Roaming is when you take and use your phone outside of the UK to make and receive calls, texts or use data.

Networks offer a range of daily charges (depending on where you are travelling) to access your UK allowance whilst you are roaming. Typically this allows you to do the following with no further charges:

- Make and receive calls and texts to the UK

- Make and receive calls within the country you are visiting

- Use your data allowance up to its maximum (although unlimited plans always have a fair usage limit on use abroad - 25GB for all networks except Three which limits use to 12GB)

However, not all countries are covered by daily roaming fees. In these cases you will be charged 'out of bundle' rates to make calls, send texts or use data. In some countries this can be very expensive, and we advise you to check your contract to see which countries are covered by daily roaming charges.

Note also that whilst you are roaming, only calls to the UK or numbers within the country you are visiting are included. If you call a 3rd country then that counts as an international call and you will be charged accordingly. Always check with us if you are unsure!
