Google intends to double Pixel 7 sales: here's how it will happen

According to the authoritative publication Nikkei Asia, the manufacturing plants of the newly introduced Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro received

from Google the largest order in history.It is reported that “good corporation” requested the production of 8 million units of the Pixel 7 series, as well as 4 million of a certain budget Pixel model, which will be released early next year (probably referring to the Pixel 7a). The company has informed some suppliers that it intends to double smartphone sales in 2022-2023.

Considering that from the second half of 2021 to the firstPixel shipments reached 6.2 million units in half of 2022, 12 million units looks overly optimistic, but there is a good reason for this: the fact is that Google doubled the number of countries where the Pixel 7 will be sold. If the Pixel 6 were available only in 9 countries, now there are 18 (the list is given below). Thus, such a sharp increase in sales is based more on the expansion of coverage, rather than the explosive growth in the popularity of Google phones.
