Last week, on April 10, Samsung officially released its Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 edge in various markets around the world, andexpectations were already set high. However, it looks like even Samsung is surprised by the success that the two handsets (especially the S6 edge) are having.
Korean publication Yonhap News has it that, until now, Galaxy S6 and S6 edge sales "have been much higher than expected." Reportedly, an industry official declared that, in the last three days, sales in South Korea reached an "all-time high" compared to previous Galaxy S models.
Interestingly, it's said that the Galaxy S6 edge (which is more expensive than the regular S6) accounts for about 50% of all sales. According to Yonhap News, a "high-ranking Samsung official" recently mentioned that the company "failed to make a precise prediction of demand" for the curved smartphone, that's whysupply shortages may continue for more than a month.
Not long ago, we heard that Samsung could sell 50 million Galaxy S6 and S6 edge units (combined) before the end of the year. Needless to say, the new Galaxies are off to an excellent start, though for now we don't have exact sales numbers. But it probably won't be long until we hear more on this.
What i love most about getting a new phone is leaving the manual in the pack for the first 30 days and discovering all the cool stuff on the device myself.. will keep you posted
