A new report suggests Samsung is not very confident about the success of its upcoming Galaxy S25 Edge. The company is reportedly planning to produce only 1.3 million units of the new model in the second quarter of this year.
The Galaxy S25 Edge, known for its ultra-thin design under 6mm, is set to launch later today. However, this low production number shows that Samsung may see it as a niche product, not a mainstream best-seller.
Earlier rumors hinted at a possible 3 million-unit run for Q2, but this has now reportedly been cut by more than half. Even though this is just for the current quarter, it shows Samsung is being cautious. For comparison, the Galaxy S25 Ultra sold over 5 million units in its first two months.
This change could also be due to delays in launch timing, as the S25 Edge was originally expected earlier in Q2. Some units produced now may also be saved for Q3 sales.
Meanwhile, Samsung’s upcoming foldable phones—the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7—are also seeing modest production numbers. Samsung plans to make around 800,000 Fold 7 units and 600,000 Flip 7 units ahead of their expected July release.
Samsung may increase production later, but for now, the company seems to be playing it safe. Whether this is due to market trends, supply issues, or uncertain demand remains unclear.
