Samsung received a good response for its latest flagship smartphone lineup, the Galaxy S24. The Galaxy S24 broke pre-order records in key markets and achieved double-digit sales growth. Those higher sales could be attributed to higher demand for the Galaxy S24+, at least according to a new report.

A report from market analysis firm Counterpoint Research reveals that the sales of the Galaxy S24 series were 8% higher than the Galaxy S23 series globally during the first three weeks. It shows a detailed sales comparison of all Galaxy S23 and Galaxy S24 models. The sales of the Galaxy S24+ were 53% higher than the Galaxy S23+ during the same three-week period.

This year, Samsung brought many upgrades to the Galaxy S24+. While maintaining its slim form factor, the Galaxy S24+ brought a bigger, upgraded 6.7-inch screen with QHD+ resolution and a 2,600 nits peak screen brightness. It also received a much bigger battery, at 4,900mAh, which is almost as good as the Galaxy S24 Ultra’s 5,000mAh battery.
It also received the option for 12GB of RAM, 50% higher than 8GB RAM on the Galaxy S23+. A bigger, brighter, and sharper screen, a bigger battery, and higher RAM may have attracted many people who don’t want to spend a lot on the Galaxy S24 Ultra or want a more compact or comfortable phone.
