Motorola blames iPhone for a failure of Z8 slider

04 Jul

I do not know, what experts in marketing of Motorola thought, releasing on the market new slider Z8 on June, 29th - day of the beginning of sales iPhone.

The result of such mistake has let about itself quickly know: all Internet is filled up by news about iPhone, and on release Moto Z8 have informed only units. All people wants iPhone, nobody pays attention to press releases of Z8. All excites about unlocking of iPhone, but in parallel, that Z8 - is a unique slider, the first in Motorola, capable to show films and to catch mobile TV. iPhone has brought down on all day network of AT&T, and Z8 there places were not. Unless it is fair?
Necessary to expect, that in epicentre of iPhoneMania it is better not to put yourself. Remember ceremony of "Oscar" from 2002, when Peter Jackson’s picture «Lord of the rings: part 1» have put forward at once on some nominations? Then year was very weak on films, it is possible to think, that all venerable stars have left in hibernation. And one detail was then found out. Directors, not arranging, have come to one opinion: what for to be troubled and try to shoot a masterpiece for "Oscar" if «Lord of the rings» - the obvious favourite has been shooted.
Perhaps, Motorola it was necessary to consider that experience?

P.S. First quarter of 2007 Motorola has finished at a loss almost in a quarter of one million billion dollars. On Z8 the company rested big hopes. But iPhone has sent Z8 in a deep knockout, having crossed out all plans of Motorola on improvement of a financial situation.
