The Samsung Galaxy S22 series has apparently become less attractive after the GOS controversy.
Mobile carriers in South Korea have raised their subsidies for S22 phones by up to 500,000 won to boost sales, which means the base model is now retailing for nearly half the price it was at launch. Per a Samsung spokesperson, the amount of subsidies was jointly decided by the company and mobile carriers. He stopped short of acknowledging that the prices have been lowered because of the GOS saga, pointing instead to the state of the broader market.
The report quotes an anonymous official at a mobile carrier as saying that the GOS issue has indeed impacted demand for the S22 but added that there has not been a significant decline in sales volume. That seems to suggest that Korean carriers have proactively reduced the price to prevent the demand from slowing down substantially.
