Samsung is delighted to update us on the sales improvement of the Galaxy S23 series over last year’s S22 family in India, Europe, Latin America, and the Middle East, leaving out any info on China or the US.
While it’s certainly not unusual to see Samsung boast about the early box-office success of a new ultra-high-end smartphone lineup, the world’s top vendor has struggled to maintain the popularity of its last few Android flagships for more than a few weeks after launch.
This time around, however, the Korea-based tech giant is not going radio silent regarding the sales figures of its latest hero devices after praising their initial global reception. Of course, Samsung is not getting very specific about said numbers for each individual Galaxy S23 series model or the family as a whole either while also leaving out some key data from a couple of crucial markets altogether.
Are the Galaxy S23, S23 Plus, and S23 Ultra the most successful Samsung handsets in history? Probably not. But compared to last year’s Galaxy S22, S22 Plus, and S22 Ultra, they are definitely striking gold in a bunch of important countries and regions, as reported by Yonhap News (and translated here).
India, which just so happens to be the world’s second-largest smartphone market (as well as the second most populous country), has apparently seen an increase of 40 percent in S23 series sales so far from the results posted in the same timeframe following the regional commercial debut of the S22 trio back in early 2022.
