Samsung is considering that the upcoming Galaxy S26 series will set a new sales benchmark for future smartphones, as it is aiming to sell 24 million Galaxy S26 units in the 1H 2026.
Samsung is supposed to launch the Galaxy S26 series in February 2026, which will include three variants: Galaxy S26, Galaxy S26 Plus, and Galaxy S26 Ultra. Recently, it’s been reported that it could meet a price hike compared to its predecessor Galaxy S25 series.
According to a new report, Samsung is expecting to sell 24 million Galaxy S26 units within the first half after launch. If this happens, it will be at least a 5% increase from the Galaxy S25, which sold 22.7 million units in the same period this year.
The company is aiming to sell 35 million units of the Galaxy S26 series by the end of 2026. These numbers are quite a big target, which shows that the Korean tech giant is confident in the appeal of the forthcoming Galaxy S-series, especially when it will equip the in-house 2nm-based Exynos 2600 chipset for most markets, and Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 for Galaxy for the rest of the other markets.
Apart from the Galaxy S26 series, the report revealed that Samsung also set pioneering goals for the mobile sector in general, as it is planning to sell 240 million Galaxy smartphones and 27 million Galaxy tablets next year, which is anticipated to bring in revenue of roughly 130 trillion won. In case the expectations come true, then it will be the company’s highest revenue since 2013.
