The fact that the Galaxy Note 5 isn't available in every market isn't Samsung's biggest mistake, but it would certainly be better if more customers had access to the handset instead of what could be a few months' wait. India is one example of this case, where Samsung claims to have a 40 percent market share. In these circumstances, it could be a mistake not releasing the device in this region. On the other hand, India has always been a huge market for mid and low-tier devices, and the Note 4 didn't sell too many units in this region which could explain why the phablet isn't available here yet. Samsung could concentrate its effort on regions where high-tier devices like the Note series sell well, especially given the steep price of this lineup.
It's going to be interesting to watch the Galaxy Note 5 sales during the first month, but Samsung is most likely making a mistake in restricting its release to a handful of countries. We will just have to wait and see how well the Galaxy Note 5 ultimately does, and keep our fingers crossed that the restricted launch is only a temporary thing. Pre-orders for the Galaxy Note 5 and the Galaxy S6 edge+ are available as of today in the US, and they are going to be available in Canada starting with the 21st of August. Samsung has yet to give a release date for any other market other than US and Canada, but we should learn more in the coming weeks.
