Samsung sang its way into India’s hearts through durable white goods that soon became a household name in the true sense of the word

Despite boasting a good product portfolio, its communication has failed to create the recall that a Nokia (or now a Motorola) creates.

Analysts feel that Samsung is concentrating only on the volume driven low end segment. But Samir promises that the company would soon be coming out with handsets that are for the hi-end consumers. On offer will be sets that ooze a hiend quotient, redefine style and have more substance.
