Biggest Smartphone Fails



  • Samsung Galaxy Fold


In April 2019, Samsung launched it's Samsung Galaxy-Fold for the public, but before launching it to the customers, it was first given to reviewers who brought up the drawback in the device that the plastic protective film; which was basically used in the upper side, was not much-durable as it starts to come out, which usually damage the device. Thus after six months, Samsung re-manufactured it's Devices with better quality; to stand a great Hit with a new category and finally re-launched it into the markets. Thus, Galaxy One Fold was initially a failure that got improved into a successful product.


  • Moto Razor


Motorola wanted to outshine it's device back into trend, thus it started to manufacture Moto Razor which is a Folding phone. But in terms of making the device foldable, they had compromised a lot, as to adopted a foldable display they used a simple plastic back panel, sacrificed a lot in camera quality and also showed many durability failures too.


  • Modular phones


Modular-phone concept was first brought by  ' LG-G5 ', then Motorola also started to bring it's modular phones and called them as ' Motorolla Moto-Modes ' but all of it had negligible success in the market, which ultimately led to failures, as in modular phones because of their high manufacturing costs, which were usually much more than normal device manufacturing cost and mostly in modular phones, the users are needed to buy mods externally thus most of the people denied to use such category of handsets.


  • Windows phone


 Windows phone OS had a hit in its initial times; but later-on IT was unable to encourage further success, as Windows lacks behind from other devices as it's UI don't support other applications to the users, and even if some applications which could enable are needed to give loyalty to the company to use that particular application. Thus all these led to its ultimate failure in the market.


  • Blackberry Z10


Blackberry had launched it's Querty keypad-touchscreen device named as " Blackberry Z1". It was also a major failure as people demanded applications to be enabled in the devices but Blackberry Z1 couldn't support much of the applications as it didn't have any specific good software thus ultimately leading to a Major Failure.


  • Essential


Well, this brand is probably unknown to the major segment of people. "Essential" brand was actually introduced by Andrew Rubin, who was the creator of Android. This brand had a great hype in the market as it was the fast phone to come with a notch and also was working on some special features similar to Modular phones. The overall announcement regarding the feature and characteristics of the device led to an impact on the minds of people that, it would be a great device as this was officially brought by the father of Android. So, it would promise a much better experience for the users. But it was a Failure because; it was very costly, thus people didn't have enough faith to trust such a new company. Later-on, the company went out-of-funds and finally led to Shut- Down of the company.


  • Google Pixel 4


It is considered as the most high-rated failure device in the market. It was the worst designed phone, which had a big-Bazzel in its top, it had Project Solly-Rader Sensors; which were promising that the phone can be easily used with hand gestures. Because of this Rader-Sensors, during the review period, it's review model was found that it actually doesn't work accordingly as it promises to the users, thus this all reasons led to its Failure. Because of this Rader-Sensors chips, it was not issued to be sold within Indian markets because Indian-military also uses this type of Radio-Waves for various purposes. Another reason is also that, pixel lineups are usually expensive. Thus from all these reasons led to a major failure of Pixel-4.


  • Samsung Galaxy Note-7


Samsung galaxy note 7 was also a major failure as those were the devices that seemed to get blasted by itself after some consecutive uses. Which on further investigation the company found that to enroll a big battery they compromised major safety measures and because of these only, the devices were kept on bursting. This also tend to health issues, thus it was also a major failure in the market. But later-on they implemented there further devices in its appropriate manner.
