Although the Samsung Galaxy S6 and Samsung Galaxy S6 edge are both fantastic devices, they haven’t sold as well as Samsung was hoping.

Samsung has reported that mobile profits for the second quarter of 2015 totalled £1.5 billion, a £1.1 billion reduction from the £2.6 billion profit it made for the same period in 2014.

Samsung said: “While the IT & Mobile Communications (IM) Division is expected to face a difficult business environment, the sales momentum for high-end products will be maintained by adjusting the price of the Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge and introducing new premium smartphone models.”
