Re: Samsung to discontinue its camera sector and focus on appliances and smartphones

The reason why there is no concrete word from Samsung is that they are going through a leadership transition right now, where the new CEO seem to be more "software" focused than "hardware, as Samsung's traditional electronic business, including smartphones, TVs, cameras are becoming less profitable. I personally don't feel Samsung will fully withdraw from the camera business given their huge investment in sensors. However, they may keep the camera division in very limited capacity much like their laptop business.
