The Elec as reported that shipments of the new Galaxy foldable screen phone were 8% to 10% higher than the Galaxy Z Flip and Z Fold 4 in the same period last year. Additionally, the outlet claimed that the Galaxy Z Flip 5 accounted for 60% to 65% of shipments, while the Z Fold 5 accounted for 30% to 35%.

However, Samsung may also face some challenges. According to reports, Samsung originally expected to order parts for 12 million to 13 million Z5 series folding screen phones by the end of this year, but this number may be reduced by 1 million units as the global economic recession may affect the sales of folding screen phones.

Nonetheless, the media believes that if the shipments of Z Fold 5 and Z Flip 5 in 2023 are 10% higher than their predecessors, then Samsung’s annual shipments of Galaxy foldable screen phones will be expected to exceed 10 million units for the first time.

The outlet also claims that Samsung will start producing components for the Galaxy S24 series in mid-October. Additionally, in preparation for the release of the iPhone 15 series, Samsung may release the Galaxy S24 series a month early.

The site allows users to use two Apple phones to “experience” the advantages of the Galaxy Z Fold5’s large screen. Samsung has always had a web application that demonstrates the custom Android user interface it developed, as well as Samsung’s application, but experience Galaxy Fold. Options are brand new.

The experience requires two iPhones, both of which have the trial Galaxy app added to their home screens. The app can be installed via the Try Galaxy website, which has a scannable QR code. The web app needs to be launched on two iPhones, one of which generates a code and the other accepts the code in order to establish synchronization between the two devices. The “single” screen is then split between the two Apple phones, simulating the larger-screen effect of the Galaxy Fold.

Users have a limited number of experience options to choose from, and can only scratch the surface of what the Galaxy Fold can do. Users can play a game of air hockey, browse a tutorial on multitasking, or watch a video split across two screens. Almost all of the multi-screen views available are video tutorials controlled by Samsung, so this is more of a gimmick.

Samsung often uses anti-Apple marketing and likes to point out that Apple doesn’t have a foldable phone.

J B Park, President and CEO of Samsung Southwest Asia, said that the two latest foldable screen phones will be manufactured at the Noida plant in Uttar Pradesh.

Samsung started manufacturing the Fold 4 and Flip 4 series in India in December last year, four months after their launch. It is noted that unlike the fourth generation of the foldable screen series which was manufactured in India four months after its launch, the Galaxy Z Fold 5 / Flip 5 was immediately manufactured locally in India at the time of its launch, and Indian consumers were able to buy them right from the start! The Galaxy Fold 5 and Galaxy Flip 5 are “Made in India”.

Counterpoint Research, a market research and analytics firm, forecasts that global foldable smartphone shipments will grow from 78.6 million in 2026 to 101.5 million in 2027, with the segment dominated by Samsung and Apple, which it expects to launch Apple’s foldable iPhone in 2025.

According to the market research firm, Samsung led the Indian smartphone market with a 20 percent share in the first quarter of 2023 and also maintained its lead in 5G handset shipments with a 24 percent share.

It can be clearly seen from one of the pictures that the Galaxy Z Fold 5 in the picture comes with a mobile phone case with a built-in pen slot for the Samsung S Pen stylus.

It was previously reported that Samsung originally planned to embed the S Pen in the new folding screen machine released this year, but due to the impact on the internal space and the thickness issue, the plan was eventually cancelled. The source said that due to the high technical threshold, the built-in S Pen itself is possible, but the phone will also become thicker, which is not worth the candle.

Of course, there is another way, which is to make the pen thinner. But in this case, the writing experience of the stylus will become worse, and the rising cost will also bring a certain burden. Now that we have seen such a design, it seems to provide a brand new idea for the goal of ensuring that the folding screen mobile phone is sufficiently “thin and light” and integrates a stylus.

The configuration information of the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 model is attached as follows. This model will officially debut at the Samsung Galaxy Unpacked global new product launch conference held at 19:00 on July 26.
