Samsung aiming to ship 320 million smartphones this year

Himanshu, 03 January 2018

According to a new report from South Korea, the company is aiming to sell 320 million smartphones this year. Other targets include 40 million feature phones, 20 million tablet units, and 5 million wearables.

It's worth mentioning that Samsung's 2018 sales goal for smartphones is similar to what the company achieved in 2017. The report says that's largely due to saturation in the smartphone market.

While the figure may not have increased, it's should still allow Samsung to retain its lead in the smartphone market. Apple and Huawei, sold around 200 million and 150 million smartphones, respectively, in 2017.
