Shortly after the launch of sales, it appeared with a new one Galaxy S8 pale. All the analyzes indicated that far fewer customers are buying it than originally expected and it will end up far worse in sales than its predecessor last year. Everyone was even more surprised by the statistics that Samsung later published. They spoke of the complete opposite and placed the new flagship in the highest levels of global sales.

However, even though Samsung has achieved really good numbers with its phone this quarter, it still doesn't have the popularity of Apple's iPhone 7. This quarter, 16,9 million were sold in the classic version and 15,1 million in the Plus version.

Samsung can reassure at least that its position in the world androidí no one will threaten the number one some Friday. Chinese brands, which have been on a solid rise lately, have quite low sales according to all statistics. For example, Xiaomi, which tried to break through with its Redmi 4A model, sold only about 5,5 million units of this phone, which is really negligible compared to Samsung's flagships. Perhaps, however, in the following years, these companies will grow much more and dangerously suffocate on Samsung's back.
