I call BS on this story. No way they made 2 billion in sales on this device without significant noise to the market. More likely 100,000 units shipped than 1 million.

They're now saying that they actually didn't, the plan was 500k but they aren't disclosing the sales numbers.

I found many reports on the 1M number, but none on yours. Source?

This doesn't prove it is good value for money, just that there are lots of people willing to throw money out of the window for fashion items. Actually this new is more worrying, since it shows how ... easily tempted people are nowadays.

This is nothing new. Except that the smartphone has become an increasing important device for multiple industries to develop products for. Consumers already overspend for homes, cars, TV's, college, vacations, etc. At lease this phone offers a (new) form-factor for manufactures to kinda play around with.

I worry of a future where everyone will be readily throwing out money for $2000 phones and only those phones will be really good while the cheap ones don't offer any quality or good specs. If people are ready to pay insane amounts for a smartphone, what's stopping manufacturers like Samsung, Apple, Google, Huawei for raising prices further for these flagships? Soon these flagship smartphones will be costlier than Windows laptops.

Samsung has revealed that it has sold 1 million units of the Galaxy Fold. The result should help to silence critics of the device who have questioned its resilience, usefulness and value for money.
