...meanwhile, in Japan, 'who are Samsung?' 'Didn't know they made phones...'
- ekianjo 13y agoYeah, and they even remove the Samsung branding on Galaxy S phones... you just see it at the boot screen but nowhere it is written on the actual phone.
- revscat 13y agoDo you know why this is?
- ekianjo 13y agoBecause Phone companies here do not advertise the models, and they rename them with their own brand line names, minus the manufacturer's name. It's probably because they don't want to make it look like these phones come from outside of Japan.
