According to foreign media reports, Samsung's sales expectations for the Galaxy S5 are too high, but the actual sales volume is only 60% of the expected. According to the report, the sales volume of the Galaxy S5 was 12 million units three months after its launch, while the sales volume of the Galaxy S4 was 16 million units, which was 40% lower than Samsung's expectations in addition to a significant reduction compared with the previous generation. In addition to the average sales volume, Samsung also mistakenly predicted to increase the output of the Galaxy S5 by 20%, resulting in overstock of inventory.

In addition, in the Chinese market, the sales volume of Galaxy S5 is 50% less than Samsung's expectation. Of course, there is also good news, that is, there are better sales in the US market than expected.
