Samsung’s new foldalbes have proven to be a real hit during the pre-order period, not only in Korea but worldwide. They’ve broken all sorts of records, and in Korea, the devices even outsold the Galaxy S series pre-orders and thus became the company’s most pre-ordered smartphone series ever.
With that being said, a recent report claimed that the Galaxy Z Fold 8 series in specific markets managed to steal quite a few iPhone users. Now we have a US-specific report that is quite interesting.
