iPad2 Effect on Samsung
iPad2 started affecting on its competitors. Glalaxy Tab10.1, a purveyor of Andriod 3.0, is rethinking on its pricing and the design. More actions awaited from other competitors. So, now, what Jobs said is right? 2011- Year of Copycats???.
According to executive VP Lee Don-Joo, "improve the parts that are inadequate." We don't know what those are, specifically, however he notes that "Apple made [the iPad 2] very thin" and also goes on to say that Samsung will be rethinking its pricing strategy with the Tab 10.1. It was originally going to cost more than the 7-inch Galaxy Tab, but in light of Apple's new product, Samsung might have to cut into its profit margins... or maybe even forgo profits altogether to make its new Tab a success.
