Elec report claims Samsung’s sales strategy for the Galaxy Z Fold 5 and Z Flip 5 is cautious, with unnamed industry sources saying the electronics giant may be targeting 2 million unit shipments for the Z Fold 5 and 8 million units for the clamshell model, compared to 15 million units for the Galaxy Z Fold 4 and Galaxy Z Flip 4. According to the report, this is said to be due to the high cost of raw materials, the Russia-Ukraine war and turbulent economic times. Of course, it’s entirely possible for Samsung to change its strategy and goals, especially since historically the manufacturer, which is big on mobile phones, increases shipments of newer models compared to their predecessors.
