Tech Ticker

My skepticism about this ploy doesn’t matter because Samsung India thinks giving out a mid-range phone with every purchase of a laptop will help them spur the notebook sales. The phone that will be offered to the consumers is J700 slider phone valued at Rs. 6,089. I don’t know if we can say it as a flaw but all the buyers will get the same phone, right from the entry level R Series to the super expensive X Series.

A worthless comparison: The phone is just 5-6 percent of the purchase value of X360 notebook while it comes close to 20 percent when a buyer gets it with a R508 laptop.

Even though, the promotion page claims the end of the offer, Samsung will be running it throughout this month.
