Samsung Says It Shipped Almost 10 Million Foldable Smartphones Last Year

Samsung today revealed that it shipped almost 10 million foldable smartphones last year.

In a blog post, Dr. TM Roh, President & Head of MX Business, declared "The Mainstream Moment for Foldable Smartphones Is Here".

Last year, we saw almost 10 million foldable smartphones shipped worldwide. That’s an industry increase of more than 300% from 2020, and I predict this fast-paced growth will continue. We are reaching the moment where these foldable devices are becoming widespread and staking a bigger claim in the overall smartphone market.


Roh says what was a novelty three years ago, is now the preferred choice for millions. This comes ahead of the company's August 10, 2022 Unpacked event at which Samsung is expected to unveil its new Galaxy Z Fold4 and Galaxy Z Flip4 handsets.

At our upcoming Unpacked on August 10th, you’ll see that the impact of our innovation is not only about what technology can do. It’s about what you can do. We’ve once again taken our inspiration from the most important source — Galaxy users — to push the limits of what’s possible.
