Tech company Samsung have recorded lower sales than estimated with the S20 series in South Korea. The tech firm is blaming the present poor performance of their flagship devices on the market on the recent outbreak of COVID-19 virus.
It will be recalled that early in 2018, the Samsung Galaxy S10 series was reported to have sold 140,000 units on just the first day. However, with almost two weeks since the unveiling of the S20 series, the smartphones have sold just 70,800 units in this period.
Although still too early to describe the series as a “flop”, the Samsung S20 series have had its fair share of struggles, with some reviewer complaints regarding the camera quality earlier on. Samsung released a number of updates to help out with the camera performance and a number of other early glitches noticed in the flagship devices.
Samsung have however pointed to the low number of shoppers in stores due to the ongoing coronavirus outbreak as the one of the reasons behind the present poor sales. With the COVID-19 still very much on the loose, Samsung will have to find ways to make up for the early low sales, especially as the S20 series is yet to launch in certain markets that are still COVID-19 free as at the time of this article.
The low initial sales of this S20 will definitely hurt Samsung’s roadmap for the year, but its still early days for the flagship series, as we expect a spike in sales once the COVID-19 has been properly handled.

American tech company Google is extremely popular for their smartphone apps and have now opted to give a new look to one of their most used apps currently: the Google Play Store.
This new option lets you toggle between the regular display for the Google Play Store outlook and a more sinister all dark mode.
This can be particularly useful for when you want to check up a number of apps on Play Store in places with limited lighting and this setting does not affect your Android’s home screen. Google play now offers users three choices of display themes: a dark mode, a light mode and one that matches the system settings. This means you can set your Google Play Store on dark mode every time and not only when your device is on dark mode.
To select which mode you will love to enjoy Google Play in, go to SETTINGS then proceed to the THEME section. The updates are currently rolling out now, so if you are yet to see it, you may need to wait a couple of days for it.
For the time being, this new look Google Play Store is only running on devices with Android 10 OS, but is expected to get to a number of more devices in the coming days.
With this new look from Google on their Play Store app, this will protect users’ eyes especially in low-light conditions, as they will not need to strain in the dark to check up for apps on the Google Play Store.
