Ending years of wait and being unfazed by global chip shortage, Samsung on Tuesday announced to enter the highly-saturated laptop market in India dominated by the likes of HP, Dell, and Lenovo — this Holi.
A top executive told IANS that the company is set to launch six laptops — starting from nearly Rs 40,000 and going up to Rs 1 lakh — in the country and aims to capture a double-digit market share in the laptop segment.
The launch is expected to happen around the festival of colors this week.
We are here to fulfill the needs of our users and build the Galaxy ecosystem. We have laptops for everyone, either a student or an entrepreneur. With the new series of machines, we want to add a new secure Galaxy device with best performance for our users, – Sandeep Poswal, General Manager and Head, New Computing Business.
The tech giant would give 24X7 assistance, along with the best possible after-sales services, to make its laptops stand out from the crowd.
“It’s the perfect time to launch these products and people are still working and studying from home. The demand for ultra-thin laptops is high and will increase in the coming days,” the company executive added.
