Galaxy S25 Sales Rebound Near Launch Levels Months Before S26

Counterpoint data shows an unusual late-cycle surge without a confirmed explanation.

Overview

  • Counterpoint’s chart indicates the S25 series reversed the typical post-launch decline, returning to near launch-month volumes late in its cycle.
  • SamMobile cites monthly sales near 4.5 million at launch, a trough near 3 million in August, and a climb back to roughly 4.5 million by October.
  • The cause of the rebound remains unclear, with possibilities including Samsung discounts and generous trade-in offers.
  • Droid Life points to carrier upgrade programs and potential enterprise purchases as unverified contributors.
  • The next Galaxy Unpacked is expected late February with S26 availability projected for March, though details have not been formally announced.
