Samsung Galaxy S23 series get record-smashing pre-orders in South Korea
2023-02-14
Samsung opened the Galaxy S23 pre-orders after the series launch, and consumer interest has been great in South Korea. According to local sources, there were 1.09 million pre-orders, over 7% more than the Galaxy S22 last year.
It is the highest amount of pre-orders ever for a Galaxy S lineup in the Asian country, and only the Galaxy Note10 family saw a higher number, with nearly 1.4 million back in August 2019.
Korean media reveals 60% of all orders were placed for the Galaxy S23 Ultra model. The vanilla Galaxy S23 accounted to 24%, while the Galaxy S23+ got the smallest share, which is about 15%.
For comparison, the Galaxy Z Flip4 and Galaxy Z Fold4 pre-orders last summer could not pass the 1 million threshold.
