Apple, Samsung and Sony stopped sales of smartphones in Russia

March 01, 2022, 23:49

March will mark the start of global sales of the Samsung Galaxy S22, which is scheduled for March 11. Pre-orders left since February 9 are already being fulfilled, but it is already difficult to place a new order. In any case, this applies to the official store, where the corresponding button on the product page has disappeared. This applies to both the Galaxy S22 Ultra and Galaxy S22 / S22 +, but a number of other models are available for order, but all previously available discounts have been canceled (Galaxy Z Flip 3 again from 89,990 rubles). There is an official comment from Samsung . Moreover, the purchase of devices (all!) in the Apple branded store is not available (“delivery: currently unavailable”), the “Sold out” status is set for all Xperia smartphones in the Sony Store. Realme and Xiaomi, at the time of preparation of the material, are available for sale.

A similar situation is observed with partners of large brands (for example, M.Video):

Obviously, the current situation is connected with the instability of the national currency – the exchange rate of the ruble against the dollar has grown by one and a half times in a short period of time. Earlier there were reports that the Russians massively purchased the iPhone at the old prices, which could induce vendors to suspend sales. If so, they will resume when the fluctuations in the foreign exchange market stop, but smartphones will return with new price tags.
