Global consumer electronic brands face challenges from disruptive Chinese brands. LG Electronics and Samsung Electronics have a pair of fast moving competitors. Hisense Group just announced it was number 1 in US market share measured by units and dollars for TV's larger that 85" and their success didn't stop there they were also number 1 in Japan and Australia. TCL will be the focus of the next post.
The Q2 2024 premium TV shipment report highlights Samsung leading the market with a 33% share, followed by LG with 18%. Chinese brands—Hisense (17%), TCL (15%), and Xiaomi (5%)—collectively account for 37% of the market, surpassing LG’s share and trailing closely behind Samsung. This demonstrates how Chinese manufacturers are aggressively closing the gap with South Korean giants by leveraging competitive pricing, display innovations, and strategic market expansion. This development mirrors the earlier trajectory of Samsung and LG, who disrupted the dominance of Japanese brands like Toshiba and Sony through similar strategies. As Chinese brands increase their market presence, the premium TV segment is becoming increasingly competitive, pushing established players like Samsung and LG to innovate further to maintain their leadership. #TVMarket#Samsung#LG#Hisense#TCL#Xiaomi#PremiumTV#TechCompetition#Innovation#ConsumerElectronics#ChinaTech#SouthKoreaTech

When Apple launched its first store in Malaysia, Samsung made a bold move—
They snapped up every nearby ad space, even securing the naming rights to the closest subway station.

What’s your take: Brilliant strategy or too much?
Here’s my perspective: This move reflects pure HUSTLE, and that's something to admire.
Samsung’s message is clear: “Whatever Apple does, we’ll do it bigger—anywhere, anytime.”
Now, not everyone can—or should—go that hard. But the drive behind it? That’s what counts.
The best brands understand that no advantage is permanent. If you’re not pursuing your customers, someone else will.
So yeah, maybe they went a little over the top—but isn’t that better than playing it safe?
Ask yourself: "Where am I getting comfortable?" Then, go after it with that same restless energy.
