Brand analysis

Samsung is the one to watch this quarter in the Technology Retail in Australia table, its Customer Effort Score soaring by +3 vs Q2 2025.

It means the brand now sits at fourth in the table where last wave it occupied joint sixth alongside Harvey Norman.

A rise of +3 in Overall Effort Score can only really come from a surge across all four component CEI pillars and that’s exactly what Samsung has delivered this wave. Valuing the Customer and Knowledge & Expertise are both up by +3, while Style of Communication and Speed of Resolving Problems are up by +2.

Samsung has invested heavily in proactive communications that is delivering better outcomes for consumers by anticipating their needs. As referenced in Forbes, Samsung’s smart appliances can alert customers ahead of issues, for example If a refrigerator is getting warm and help schedule a repair.

No wonder we are seeing Speed of Resolving Problems score increase if consumers are having their issues sorted before they even notice them.
