The joints between Samsung and Google are cracking. Because according to one rapport from The New York Times, the South Korean electronics giant is said to be changing the default search engine in its Galaxy phones to Microsoft’s Bing solution. A contract which, according to sources, should be worth up to SEK 30 billion annually and which perhaps unsurprisingly caused Google to declare “all hands on deck” internally where they are now doing everything to try to win back Samsung as a customer. According to data from IDC, Samsung shipped 261 million phones last year, all with Google’s search engine as standard.
Do you think it makes sense if Samsung chooses Bing instead of Google?
