I'm doing to try to hold off till December. Verizon did a pretty good promo on the S7 edge, you got it free with 24 monthly credits. It's like a 2 year contract and its free. Waiting is easier said then done though. LOLThat's the thing. It will take more conscious consumers to realize their options when it comes to purchasing a new phone and evaluating their priorities in terms of features.
There are probably some subscribers out there that only roll with Samsung because they don't know what else is out there. Or maybe they truly love the devices and are satisfied with their experience each time they upgrade.
I imagine there are some out there that just walk in to the carrier store, let the sales person dictate what they get and just roll with whatever Next payments are handed to them. (I witnessed a Best Buy mobile sales person blatantly push an elder person into an S7 because they had an S5.)
If the S8 and S8+ turns out to be too expensive for alot of people, I hope they exercise the right discretion in making their decision. IMO, if the device isn't selling well, then Samsung will start to throw even more bonuses in. If the device still doesn't sell as much as they'd like, then a price drop would be in order.
