Sales figures on Galaxy S4 disappointing? ‘Not so,’ says Samsung

In the months following the release of the Galaxy S4 up until now, reports have been coming out saying that the sales figures of the S4 have been pretty disappointing, and didn’t live up to what Samsung originally expected for the device.
There were even rumors that stated the company would be preparing the Galaxy S5 for an early launch to make up for their poor sales.
However, it seems that there was a big misconception between what the Samsung officials were saying and what the press was saying.
Apparently, Samsung had “out-of-this-world” expectations for the sales of the S4. As it turns out, the numbers weren’t “out-of-this-w0rld,” but pretty darn close— still not enough for Samsung executives to be happy, though…

Updated sales figures show that there are currently more than 40 million Galaxy S4 units out an about, all over the world. That’s pretty much the definition of impressive if you ask me. 10 million units were sold in the first month after launch, and 30 million were sold in the following four months.
These Samsung execs are certainly over-achievers— if they weren’t, they wouldn’t be in their position— but expecting numbers better than those, I can’t imagine what they’re thinking over there.
