Sure, there are competitors \u2014 most notably Motorola and Oppo \u2014 but they are both selling but a fraction of Samsung&#8217;s numbers.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"--B --Y\">\n<p>But what, exactly, are those numbers?  Thanks to a public announcement of Samsung foldable sales in 2021, we now know for certain.  Samsung president TM Roh announced today that Samsung shipped a whopping 10 million foldable phones in 2021.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"--B --Y\">\n<p>Samsung doesn&#8217;t break down that number as far as specific devices go.  It is likely the Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Galaxy Z Flip 3 make up the majority of that 10 million figures, but it probably includes at least some older foldables too.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"--B --Y\">\n<p>Interestingly, Samsung did elaborate on how many of those 10 million phones were \u201cflip\u201d style and how many were \u201cfold\u201d style.  Samsung says 70% of the foldables shipped in 2021 were in the style of the Galaxy Z Flip 3, leaving just 30% in the style of the Galaxy Z Fold 3. In other words, the vast majority of people buying foldable phones want a flip -style device.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"--B --Y\">\n<p>It&#8217;s very likely this comes down to pricing.  At a list price of $999, the Galaxy Z Flip 3 was the first phone users could grab without feeling they were buying an incredibly expensive beta product.  If Samsung can get the pricing down even more, it could significantly increase that 10 million figure in 2022.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"--B --Y\">\n<p>The official Samsung foldable sales 2021 numbers also state that 2021 saw a 300% increase in shipments compared to 2020. That means Samsung sold less than 4 million foldables in 2020.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><button type=\"button\" class=\"--7i --i --j\">Comments<svg class=\"---c\" viewbox=\"0 0 1780 1017.4\"><path d=\"M1742.9 37.2l-.3-.3c-49.6-49.4-129.8-49.2-179.2.3L890.5 710.4v.2L216.7 37.4C193 13.9 160.9.7 127.5.6 57.3.4.2 57.2 0 127.5c-.1 33.8 13.2 66.3 37.1 90.2l768 766.3c50.1 45.8 127.3 44.2 175.4-3.7l762.4-763c49.5-49.8 49.5-130.3 0-180.1z\"\/><\/svg><\/button><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Eric Zeman \/ Android Authority TL;DR Official Samsung foldable sales 2021 numbers just landed from Samsung itself.
