Samsung Galaxy Watch 3 and Buds Live headphones sell three times better than their predecessors
In its first three weeks on the market, the Samsung Galaxy Watch 3 and Buds Live wireless earbuds outperformed their predecessors by three times. The report was shared by the Korean news agency Yonhap News.
Since its release earlier this month, Samsung has sold 300,000 units of its latest wireless headphones. More than half of Buds Live shoppers reportedly opted for bronze. Sales of the Galaxy Watch 3 have now reached 60,000, which is three times higher than the same period for the previous Samsung smartwatch – Galaxy Watch Active 2.
The new Galaxy Watch 3 also broke the record for Samsung smartwatch sales on its first day. Over 7000 units were sold. The figures are even more impressive when you consider that the cost of the basic version of the previous Watch Active 2 was 300 euros at the start of sales, while for the Watch 3 this figure is 430 euros. The return of the mechanical rotating screen frame has likely been warmly received by consumers.
It is worth noting that these figures refer to South Korea, but they can be used to judge the global level of demand for new Samsung wearables.
