Samsung did a lot better this year. The Galaxy S23 line sells twice as much as the Galaxy S22
The Samsung Galaxy S23 line seems to be selling a lot better than its predecessors. According to recent data, 2.77 million new-generation flagship devices were sold in the first month of sales.
For comparison, the Galaxy S22 line at one time in the same first month showed a result of 1.37 million.
To be more precise, of those 2.77 million, more than half fell on the older model. The Galaxy S23 Ultra sold 1.37 million, while the Galaxy S23 Plus and S23 sold 430,000 and 690,000 respectively.
The current line, we recall, outwardly and in a number of parameters is very close or almost identical to last year’s. Perhaps such an explosive growth in sales is due to the widespread use of the SoC Snapdragon 8 Gen 2. At the same time, we recall that more and more leaks indicate that the Galaxy S24 will receive a new SoC Exynos 2400. Although so far it is credited with quite high performance.
Information was recently shared by a very active insider Revegnus (@Tech_Reve), who previously accurately reported the first details about the new platforms of the Snapdragon 8 and Exynos families.

They are giving up the iPhone. Motorola reveals 20% of Razr foldable smartphone buyers are ex-iPhone owners
Motorola isn’t even close to being the market leader in foldable smartphones, but its Razr models have proven to be a big draw for iPhone owners.
In an interview with CNet, Allison Yi, head of Motorola’s North American product division, said that of all Motorola’s products, the foldable Razr is the most popular among iPhone owners.
This is definitely the family we have the most iPhone users moving to.
It turns out that 20% of Razr buyers are former owners of Apple smartphones. They are probably attracted by the fresh form factor in which the iPhone is not presented and probably will not be presented for a long time. At the same time, we must remember that we are talking about North America, where, in addition to the Razr, only the Samsung Flip is in this form factor.
Motorola recently unveiled its new foldable smartphones, including the revolutionary cheap (in China) Moto Razr 40, but in the US, only the older Razr Plus (called the Moto Razr 40 Ultra in China) will sell for $1,000.

Still cheaper than any other similar smartphone, but not so revolutionary. Motorola Razr and Razr Plus will be more expensive in the global market than in China
Motorola yesterday introduced foldable smartphones Moto Razr 40 and Moto Razr 40 Ultra, which turned out to be cheaper than all competitors, and the younger model even offers a revolutionary price for this segment at $560. However, these are Chinese prices, and in the global market everything is different, since new items are significantly more expensive there.
To start with, the Moto Razr 40 is called the Razr in the global market, and the Moto Razr 40 Ultra is called the Razr Plus.
In the US, apparently, only the latter will be sold at a price of $1,000. In Europe, they will already ask for 1200 euros for it. The base model Razr will be available in select countries in Europe, Latin America, and Asia, but pricing has not yet been announced. It is expected that it will be around 700-800 euros. It’s still cheaper than other similar smartphones, but not as revolutionary as $560.
