There May Be No Samsung Galaxy Note This Year, But The Galaxy S21 Ultra May Be An Ideal Alternative
News 18For the well documented semiconductor shortage that is leading to a situation of limited stocks for technology products and cars around the world, we may have just confirmed the first big casualty of this chip shortage. The Samsung Galaxy Note smartphone series may not see a new refresh this year, as the Korean tech giant confirms they are grappling with chip shortage. Koh Dong-jin, co-CEO at Samsung, said that the company is considering skipping a new Galaxy Note refresh for this year, a result of what he calls a “serious imbalance” in semiconductor supply globally. That being said, Samsung may already have a ready alternative in stores for consumers looking to buy a new Galaxy Note phone, with the new Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra smartphone launched earlier this year. The new Galaxy S21 flagship series, which includes the Samsung Galaxy S21, the Samsung Galaxy S21+ and the Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra phones, was released earlier this year.
