Samsung Aims To Sell 270 Million Smartphones in 2023 With Focus in Foldable Devices

San Francisco, November 1: Samsung is expected to sell 270 million smartphones next year with focus on its foldable devices. According to GSMArena, the current estimate of 260 million units sold in 2022 is around 10 million more than the last year, and the company wants to increase that by 10 million next year.

The company is reportedly concentrating on foldables in order to achieve this goal because it can increase profitability as opposed to just sheer sales volumes overall. Samsung Likely To Reduce Prices of Upcoming Foldable Phones: Report.
