Samsung boldly expects 60 million Galaxy S8 unit shipments, 100 million J-series sales
Samsung seems to have impressively bounced back from embarrassing Galaxy Note 7 scandals already, at least as far as overall financial gains are concerned, never suffering much in terms of brand confidence anyway.
But the real test is yet to come, and we’re all curious about the market’s response to a prospectively game-changing Galaxy S8. As always, its makers expect the world from the “next big thing”, reportedly asking supply partners for enough components to build and sell 60 million units this year alone.
Just how ambitious is that number? Not as ambitious as 100 million, which is apparently the 2017 shipment goal of the low to mid-end Galaxy J lineup. Meanwhile, the upper mid-range Galaxy A series, now consisting of water-resistant models, has its sights set on a “modest” 20 million sales target.
To put those figures in the right context, let’s look back at the Galaxy S7, S6 and S5, which reportedly sold between 45 and 48 million copies apiece, preceded by the most successful S in history, the 70-million-worth GS4.
Of course, the Note family wasn’t that big in 2013, the high-end smartphone industry didn’t know what saturation meant, and the budget flagship concept sounded like a pipe dream.
As for entry-level J devices, they badly need lower price points than last year to fend off an avalanche of sub-$250 China-made killers, slowly making their way even stateside. Bottom line, it’s all doable for the global smartphone champ, but it’s not going to be easy.

Entire mid-range Samsung Galaxy A (2016) smartphone family ‘confirmed’ for Nougat updates
In a way, it certainly pays off to flood the smartphone market with dozens of different models each year, covering every specific size, build, processing and pricing need consumers around the world may feel.
That’s actually one of the reasons why Samsung is still the number one mobile hardware vendor, even after the Galaxy Note 7 snafu, with so many low, mid and high-end product rosters to choose from. But software support is often the reverse of the medal.
Seeing as how Android 7.0 isn’t quite ready for primetime yet as far as a single Galaxy flagship is concerned, you’re probably wondering what that means for older, humbler Samsung devices. Long waiting times, most likely, but no shocking snubs, fortunately.
It’s reportedly “confirmed” now that the 2016 editions of the mid-range Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 and A9 Pro will all leave Marshmallow behind to embrace sweet Nougat goodies… eventually. Yes, even the 4.7-inch Snapdragon 410/Exynos 7578 Galaxy A3 (2016), released back in December 2015 with Lollipop out the box.
Sadly, we don’t have update ETAs to share at the moment, although it’s safe to assume the Galaxy S7, S7 Edge, Note 5, S6, S6 Edge, Edge+, and Tab S2, at the very least, will jump on the Android Nougat bandwagon first. And then you need to consider the looming 2017 Galaxy A lineup, which may well run Marshmallow off the bat, switching to OS build N soon after their commercial launches.
