Samsung executives said at the start of the year that they wanted to make foldable phones more mainstream during 2021. Judging by sales figures the company announced today (October 11), it looks like Samsung's meeting that goal thanks to the foldable phones it unveiled in August.

That would be the Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Galaxy Z Flip 3, both of which have received solid reviews as the two best foldable phones you can currently buy. Samsung didn't release exact sales figures for either device, but it did say sales have topped expectations, as the latest iterations of the Fold and Flip are now Samsung's best-selling foldables by some measure.
