An analyst at Counterpoint says the sales of the Note series are expecting to fall by a fifth to 8 million this year. Citing sources, the report adds that Samsung appears to be discontinuing the Samsung Galaxy Note line-up so that it can double down its resources on its flagship Galaxy S and foldable Galaxy Z series of phones.
The report also adds that it is also working on a custom under-display camera solution. It can bring a truly full-screen experience for the Fold 3. However, many analysts believe that Samsung may not simply choose the foldable phone line-up over the Galaxy Note. Whereas, the decision to bring the Note line up to an end may be motivated by the declining profits in keeping it alive.
