The Galaxy S10 series could ship 10 million units this month alone
The Samsung Galaxy S10+
By the end of June, Samsung’s latest flagships are expected to generate a combined shipment total of 20 million units. Breaking this figure down, suppliers expect a whopping 10 million units to be shipped this month alone. The remaining 10 million units should then be spread across the April to June period.
By the end of 2019, analyst Ming-Chi Kuo recently predicted sales of between 40 and 45 million units. If this happens, it’ll mark the first time Samsung has surpassed the 40 million sales mark since 2016 when the brand released the Galaxy S7 series – this lineup is also Samsung’s best-selling one with sales of 48.7 million units by the end of launch year.
In terms of the competition, Huawei has made no secret of its plans to overtake Samsung by next year at the very latest. In the flagship segment, though, it seems the Chinese brand lags behind drastically. For comparison, the Huawei Mate 20 series took 4.5 months to reach 10 million shipments, whereas the Galaxy S10 series is expected to reach this milestone in just over three weeks.
