Samsung is clear about foldable phones. Last year he delivered 300% more | mobilenet.cz | TechBuzz

Phones with foldable designs and flexible displays have been waiting a long time. It all ended in 2019, when the FlexPai flexible phone was shown to the world, but probably few people will remember it despite several generations to come. On the contrary, Samsung and its Galaxy Fold from the same year apparently already do. And it was he who stood at the beginning of the era of the Fold series and generally flexible phones from the South Korean manufacturer. While at the beginning the manufacturer himself may not have fully believed in a certain risk, today there is no doubt that it was and is the right way.

TM Roh, president of Samsung Mobile, has now described the overall success on the official website. Among the crucial information is that for 2021, Samsung shipped around 10 million phones with flexible displays worldwide, representing a year-on-year increase of 300%. Roh also added that 70% of all shipments were the Galaxy Z Flip3 clamshell. There is nothing to be surprised about, the mobile phone has succeeded in terms of design and at the same time it is more affordable, since it can be purchased for around 20,000 crowns.

It goes without saying that the segment of smartphones with a flexible display is very well established in the market. Let it be proof that TM Roh expects a similar year-on-year increase this year as well, which could mean deliveries in the order of tens of millions of pieces. The coming weeks will tell a lot, as Samsung will present the brand new generations of the Galaxy Z Flip and Galaxy Z Fold series on August 10.
