the Samsung Galaxy s6 edge are much higher than anticipated with supply now likely unable to keep up with demand currently the s6 edge accounts for approximately 50% of all galaxy s6 model shipments worldwide according to industry insiders which is far surpassing the market estimates of 20 to 30 percent of galaxy s6 sales in Korea combined s6 and s6 edge pre-orders reach 300,000 units this could possibly put it on track to become the most popular galaxy handset yet however Samsung admits that it has failed to make accurate predictions about the s6 and s6 edge sale volumes which may result in some retailers being left out of stock in the near future Samsung estimates that the s6 and s6 edge sales could reach 70 million but let's talk about news that we received about the s6 and s6 edge
