Samsung has been fighting its way to the top, and is actually doing really well with sales. The fight between Samsung and Apple may be well worth it, for Apple that is, if Samsung keeps up the progress. More and more people are using the Galaxy Note, and that means fewer people are using iPhones. But it seems Samsung might be copying Apple afterall by releasing a cheaper version of the Galaxy Note 3, the Note 3 Lite.
Just like Apple 5c
Apple released the Apple iPhone 5c recently to offer a less expensive version of the iPhone. It was released at the same time as the iPhone 5s, and was a cheaper version of the iPhone. It didn’t have nearly as many new features and was, more or less, just the iPhone 4 refurbished. The lower price tag made a big difference for a lot of buyers, even if the phone doesn’t have any of the new features in the 5s.
Just like Apple, it seems Samsung Galaxy wants to please everyone. The Galaxy Note 3 has been doing very well with over 10 million units sold in the last 2 months. The price tag is high though, according to the International Business Times. Buying the Galaxy Note 3 without a contract is $700, and even with a contract it is still $300. That’s a price tag that a lot of people just can’t afford. Though there have been reports on the Note 3 Lite price tag, it is expected the price will be significantly lower to reach out to a larger audience.
Features of the Note 3 Lite
The Note 3 Lite will have the same size screen as the regular Note 3, but the screen will probably be LCD. Some of the other features you can expect from the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 Lite include a less-powerful camera at only 8 megapixels, a less powerful hard drive, and less room for storage. By lowering all these features just slightly compared with the Note 3, the Lite is able to save a lot of money.
Will it do well?
If the rumors are true and a Samsung Galaxy Note 3 Lite is really on its way, it won’t actually be revealed until sometime early next year, probably at some sort of worldwide conference. However, if it is true, the phone will probably do just as well or better than the iPhone 5c. Though the 5c brought in more new Apple customers, most people who already owned an iPhone got the 5s. The same will likely apply with the Note 3 Lite. People who already own a Samsung Galaxy Note 3 won’t get the lower model, but it will definitely bring over some new customers. The only real difference is that Samsung’s customer base for the Note 3 is a lot smaller than Apple’s iPhone customer base. That means that there are a lot more people who Samsung could easily convert into new customers with this new phone.
