Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Z Flip 3 set to hit sales milestone

Samsung’s new foldable smartphones have been very well received. The Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Galaxy Z Flip 3 are experiencing incredible demand across the world. Samsung had previously confirmed that pre-orders alone had surpassed all of its foldable smartphone sales to date.

It’s not uncommon for devices to lose momentum once they hit the market. The initial hype is fading and those who really wanted to buy them have already done so. These new foldables seem to have no problem keeping up sales momentum.

The Galaxy Z Flip 3 is the best-selling foldable

Korean media reports that sales of the Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Galaxy Z Flip 3 are expected to exceed one million units this weekend. This marks a major milestone not only for foldables in Samsung’s home country, but around the world.

If there was any indication that Samsung has made foldable smartphones mainstream, this is it. Barely a month after launch, the new foldables are expected to pass the one million units sold milestone. It’s sold, mind you, not shipments. There are a million people in South Korea who have bought one of the two new Samsung foldables.

The Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Galaxy Z Flip 3 are in good company. Their sales momentum is similar to that of Samsung’s popular Galaxy Note 10 and Galaxy S8 devices. They were among the fastest devices to reach 1 million units sold in South Korea.

Samsung’s new foldable devices are doing very well in other markets as well. Demand for the Galaxy Z Flip 3 is particularly strong. This is one of the reasons why Samsung may have canceled the Galaxy S21 FE.

The Galaxy Z Flip 3 is clearly a customer favorite. It sold twice as many units as the Galaxy Z Fold 3. The psychological price barrier that Samsung broke with the Galaxy Z Flip 3 has certainly helped.
