Technology News December 13 news, according to foreign media reports, Samsung Electronics President Yang Song Sun Yingquan recently stated that although Samsung's foldable phone Galaxy Fold stumbled during the release process, it still sold 100 Galaxy Folds.
According to reports, Sun Yingquan revealed this data at the TechCrunch Disrupt event held in Berlin. He said that despite the reliability problems in the Galaxy Fold process, the price is close to 2,000 US dollars, but it did not prevent 1 million people from buying Galaxy Fold. Sun Yingquan stated that "1 million people want to use this product at a price of US$2,000 per person."
The sales of 1 million units are not much compared to the tens of millions of mobile phones sold by Samsung and Apple each quarter. , But for such an expensive and unverified device, this sales volume is still very good, and many smaller mobile phone manufacturers still struggle to sell such a number of phones.
Galaxy Fold was officially launched in September of this year, a few months later than the original plan, because many evaluation machines frequently failed during use. Samsung cancelled the initial release plan, revised the design and reinforced some parts to reduce the possibility of mobile phone failure.
Other foldable smartphones such as Huawei Mate X have also experienced shipment delays, presumably due to concerns about the durability and service life of the phone. But this has not stopped other companies from joining the competition for foldable phones. Motorola plans to release a new folding Razr in January next year. (Chenchen)
