The Samsung W27 goes official in China

29 October 2026
It features gold accents across its frame, hinge, and camera module.


Well asking the same questions.
Its good to have competition but if others sells for much cheaper there isnt any competition.
Even a low cost phone with good specs could easily last you 2-3 years as long as your warranty and then you will sell it and buy something new.
I always go this way. Every 2 years i am swapping my flagship phones for something new and when it still have a decent value i am selling it to make happy someone else who got a super B flagship for 30-40% of its original costs which after 2 years apart the battery is still like a new device.

    Cpt.Power, 29 Oct 2026whats the purpose of making something nobody would buy mayb... moresamsung thinks chinese people care about their phones. their sales plummeted since 2017. samsung blamed chinese company atl (also where iphone batteries are made) for note7 battery. samsung was prrejudicial about them. also there are better options than samsung, like huawei. why would they buy samsung?

      Ss, 30 Oct 2026that is exactly the point. Also nothing wrong with Samsung ... moreExactly.
      I am always used to say make it all even and equal.
      In other words make all phones from all brands available for sale in every vendor and country and due to a fact many chinese for same ammount of price offers 10-100 times better specced devices goodle, samsung, sony and apple will be least sold products.
      Thats an easy math.

        Cpt.Power, 29 Oct 2026whats the purpose of making something nobody would buy mayb... moreFor same reason people buy Rolex watches which can be 5-10x if not more expensive than this phone.
        And even most expensive standard analogue watch will not be 100% precise 100% of time.
        You will have to use little knob on it eventually to make it 100% accurate.
        Even cheapest smartwatches(those with Internet connection) will be 100% accurate as long as connected to the internet.

          For such an expensive device, the top model should have 50 000MaH batery and not just 5000.
          20 000 minimum.
