Galaxy Note20 Pre-Orders Smooth Sailing... "Similar to Galaxy Note10"

3-Day Performance Similar to Galaxy Note10... Thanks to Note Loyal Customers and Gifts
Unusual Compared to S20... Heavy Rain and Monsoon in Late Pre-Orders Are Variables

[Asia Economy Reporter Han Jinju] The early pre-order performance of the Galaxy Note20 is sailing smoothly. The atmosphere is quite different from when the Galaxy S20 was released earlier this year.

According to industry sources on the 10th, the Galaxy Note20, which began pre-orders on the 7th, is recording sales similar to its predecessor, the Galaxy Note10. With a loyal customer base for the Note series and the Galaxy Buds Live offered as a pre-order gift, the first three days of pre-orders have exceeded expectations.

The pre-order results are determined by the performance in the first three days. Considering that consumer sentiment has not fully recovered due to the COVID-19 pandemic, this result proves that there is a pent-up replacement demand and a wide fixed fan base for the Note series.

It is also noteworthy that the sales performance is similar to that of the 'Galaxy Note10,' which saw fierce competition for subscribers after the launch of 5G. The Galaxy Note10 reached 1.3 million units during pre-orders, and the official subsidy amount was about twice the current level. Compared to the Galaxy S20 pre-order performance, which was only 60-80% of its predecessor (Galaxy S10) due to the COVID-19 impact and minimal subsidies, this is a significant achievement.

An industry insider explained, "Including the increased proportion of unlocked (self-paid) units, it is estimated that the Galaxy Note20 achieved results similar to the Galaxy Note10. However, due to weather variables such as typhoons, we need to observe future pre-order results carefully." This is because offline pre-orders overwhelmingly outweigh online ones.

Meanwhile, among Galaxy Note20 pre-order customers, the Ultra model appears to be more popular. According to MNPrice, among 3,336 pre-order customers over two days starting from the 6th, 81% chose the Galaxy Note20 Ultra, while 19% selected the standard model.

Preferred colors for the Ultra model were ▲Mystic Bronze (48%) ▲Black (30%) ▲White (22%). For the standard model, color preferences were ▲Mystic Bronze (44%) ▲Gray (41%) ▲SKT exclusive Blue (8%) ▲LGU+ exclusive Pink (4%) ▲KT exclusive Red (3%).

MNPrice explained, "The popularity of the Galaxy Note20 pre-orders is due to the improved S Pen, immersive large screen, and Samsung Electronics’ free gift of the new Galaxy Buds Live as a pre-order bonus, which attracted many customers in their 30s."
