Samsung may have just announced its best smartphones ever at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, but according to Cyanogen, Inc. CEO Kirt McMaster, that’s not going to help the company’s declining smartphone sales and falling profits.

McMaster believes that the South Korean company — and other high-end smartphone makers — will be “slaughtered” by new competition over the next five years.

Founder Carl Pei today confirmed that the long-awaited CyanogenMod 12S update is now delayed until March.

Samsung isn’t the only smartphone maker experiencing a decline in sales thanks to Apple’s latest iPhones. New data shows that the popularity of the iPhone 6 and the iPhone 6 Plus caused Android sales to decline for the first time ever during the fourth quarter of 2014.
