Galaxy S25 pre-orders in India were 20% higher than for the S24 series last year

A week ago, Samsung announced that Galaxy S25 series pre-orders in South Korea set a new record, surpassing the S24 series pre-orders by 10%. Now the company has announced the pre-order numbers for India and they have improved even more – S25 series pre-orders are 20% higher than last year.

Samsung India reports more than 430,000 pre-orders for the Galaxy S25, S25+ and S25 Ultra in total. There’s no word on the split between individual models, but if it’s like in South Korea, the Ultra makes up the bulk of pre-orders.

For context, last year Samsung reported record-breaking pre-orders from India with 250,000 in just three days. There were more pre-orders after the initial inrush, of course. Even so, this year’s pre-orders totaled 20% more than last year’s pre-orders.

Samsung is catering to the local market – Galaxy S25 phones sold in India are manufactured locally at the Noida factory. Also, Gemini Live was available with Hindi support at launch. The company also expanded the network of stores that sell its phones to reach smaller cities.

“Galaxy S25 Ultra, Galaxy S25+ and Galaxy S25 smartphones set a new standard as true AI companions with Samsung’s most natural and context-aware mobile experiences ever created. We have seen strong demand for the Galaxy S25 series among young tech-savvy consumers, who are at the forefront of Galaxy AI usage. This year, we widened our flagship distribution network to 17,000 outlets, which has helped us tap demand in smaller cities,” said Raju Pullan, Senior Vice President, MX Division, Samsung India.
