Big in India… and Latin America… and Europe… and the Middle East
The jump was slightly higher in both Europe and the Middle East, at around 50 percent, and much higher in “major Latin American countries such as Brazil and Mexico”, at 70 percent or so. The 1.7x improvement in the latter area seems especially notable (and especially impressive) as it was apparently achieved in a shorter period of time too following a slightly later release than last year.
What’s missing and what else do we know?
Unfortunately, the success puzzle of the Galaxy S23 family is still missing a few pieces, starting with an actual preliminary global sales total, an updated long-term forecast, and perhaps most importantly, any news whatsoever from the US and China.
The S23 Ultra (pictured here) is selling better than the S23 and S23 Plus combined.
Stateside, however, Samsung’s Android flagships have traditionally done a lot better, so it’s definitely a little worrying that the company’s American branch is so tight-lipped at the moment.
