Rick Osterloh also quoted “Every seven years, the person who’s been on top of the market has gone away. We are going through one of those fascinating shifts where people are starting to realize that you don’t need to pay $600 for a top-tier phone to get a top-tier experience”
According to Forbes, Osterloh implied that, Samsung could be next in line of Nokia and Blackberry, those lost their top position in global market after huge success.
