Due to recent economic uncertainties, South Korean electronics giant Samsung is reportedly delaying the release of its next-generation Galaxy Tab S9 series.
According to The Elec GizmoChina, Samsung introduced the Galaxy Tab S8 series earlier this year, one and a half years after the release of the Galaxy Tab S7 family. The company had planned to unveil its upcoming premium tablets in December. However, according to the source, they will now be released the following year.
According to the report, Samsung’s decision is the result of recent global economic uncertainty.
In accordance with the report, as the global pandemic of Covid-19 nears its end, demand for IT products has begun to fall globally. Samsung originally planned to produce 33.6 million tablets in 2022. However, due to low demand, the company may be unable to carry out its plans.
The global tablet market will contract by 8% this year, according to DSCC (Display Supply Chain Consultants). However, the premium tablet category (OLED and Mini LED) is supposed to grow by 22%.
According to reports, Samsung has devised a new strategy for its upcoming flagship tablets. The Galaxy Tab S9 series, like the Galaxy Tab S8 series, is said to have three versions.
In the last 24 hours, Samsung has sold over 1.2 million Galaxy devices in India, totaling Rs 1,000 crore.

On the first day of Flipkart’s Big Billion Days, Samsung doubled its platform market share. The Galaxy F13 was a top seller in the 4G segment, while the Galaxy F23 was the most popular 5G smartphone on Flipkart.
According to the company, the Galaxy S21 FE and Galaxy S22+ sold well in the premium segment on Flipkart. Samsung has also stated that it intends to consolidate its 5G and overall smartphone leadership in the country.
