Samsung's new Galaxy S23 smartphones are selling very well. In the first eight months since they were released, Samsung has sold over 22 million Galaxy S23 smartphones. This is 22% more than the number of Galaxy S22 smartphones that Samsung sold in the same period last year.
The most popular Galaxy S23 model is the Ultra, which has a large screen and a powerful camera. Samsung has sold over 10 million Galaxy S23 Ultra smartphones.
Samsung's new foldable smartphones, the Galaxy Z Fold5 and Z Flip5, are not selling as well as the Galaxy S23 smartphones. In the first two months since they were released, Samsung has sold only 3.5 million Galaxy Z Fold5 and Z Flip5 smartphones. This is less than the number of Galaxy Z Fold4 and Z Flip4 smartphones that Samsung sold in the same period last year.
Analysts say that there are a few reasons why the Galaxy Z Fold5 and Z Flip5 are not selling as well as the Galaxy S23 smartphones. First, the Galaxy S23 smartphones are more affordable. Second, the Galaxy S23 smartphones have been marketed more heavily.
Despite the disappointing sales of the Galaxy Z Fold5 and Z Flip5, Samsung is still committed to foldable smartphones. The company is expected to release new foldable smartphones in 2024.
