The Samsung Galaxy S4 went on sale in Canada on May 3rd and carriers and retailers quickly witnessed their stock deplete. Samsung Canada even noted that due to high demand for the flagship Android “the initial supply may be limited. We expect to fulfill inventory to meet demands in the coming weeks.”
Before the big release, Samsung expected to sell 10 million units. Although there’s no official announcement from Samsung HQ, overseas reports from Chosunilbo of Korea have an unknown Samsung exec claiming that “As of the end of April, we supplied four million Galaxy S4 handsets to telecommunication operators around the world… As of Friday, we have sold more than 6 million units, and we predict that we could break the 10-million mark by as early as the end of this month.”
Samsung usually creates a flashy image – see here, here and here – to celebrate such a momentous accomplishment. It’s certainly possible and this would make the GS4 the fastest selling Android ever.
Every Canadian carrier has included the Galaxy S4 in their linep: Rogers, Bell, TELUS, Fido, Virgin, Koodo, WIND, Mobilicity (not yet for sale), Videotron, SaskTel, Eastlink and MTS.
