Galaxy S22 Sales Are Reportedly Declining in Samsung’s Home Market Due to the Performance Throttling Controversy

Samsung recently came under heavy criticism for artificially throttling the performance of its Galaxy S22 series, for which it was de-listed by benchmarking application Geekbench. The company did issue a statement, but it has not helped matters for it, especially on its home ground of South Korea, where sales of its flagship family are reportedly declining.
Though Samsung addressed this performance throttling issue, which was referred to as the Games Optimization Service (GOS), the sales of the Galaxy S22 lineup have not improved in South Korea, according to a report from The Korea Times. It is clear that customers do not appreciate that their high-end smartphone’s performance was being artificially reduced. Another reason why these sales could be declining was that it was not made clear to these users what the original intent of GOS was.
