Sales of the flagship Galaxy S23 exceed sales of the Galaxy S22 by 22%
Insider Ice Universe provided interesting data on sales of Samsung flagship smartphones this year. It turned out that in eight months of 2023, the company has already sold almost 23 million devices of the Galaxy S23 line – and this is 22% more than last year it sold Galaxy S22 devices over the same period (8 months).
The undoubted leader of the family is the Galaxy S23 Ultra – it sold 10.69 million units. The base model is in second place with 8.09 million Galaxy S23 units sold. Well, the Galaxy S23 Plus is in third place: 4.11 million units were sold in eight months.
Galaxy S23 Ultra alone sold more than 10 million units in 8 months
Interestingly, with folding flagships the story is the opposite: Galaxy Z Fold4 and Galaxy Z Flip4 sold 3.63 million units in two months last year (Galaxy Z Fold4 – 1.35 million, Galaxy Z Flip4 – 2.28 million), and Galaxy Z Fold5 and Galaxy Z Flip5 sold only 3.51 million in two months of this year (1.25 and 2.26 million respectively).
This data was provided by Insider Ice Universe. Previously, he was the first to accurately talk about the new trend for smartphones with waterfall screens, about the bangs in the iPhone X, about the new design of the iPhone 14, and about Samsung’s 200-megapixel image sensor. Exclusive information about new products is leaked to him by sources in the research and development department of the South Korean giant.
Interestingly, Ice Universe is among those who actively criticize Samsung for its lack of innovation, but this does not prevent the company from selling its flagship devices very well (at least with a traditional screen).
