Well, if you thought the reports of the Galaxy S5 outselling its predecessor by a comfortable margin were far-fetched, then maybe a statement from an actual retailer confirming the same will be enough to make you believe that Samsung’s newest flagship really is a massive hit. According to UK retailer Phones 4u, launch day sales of the Galaxy S5 were double that of the Galaxy S4, with the Galaxy S5 making up 40 percent of all contract sales at the retailer on Aprill 11. While other retailers haven’t made official statements, it’s likely the story is the same across all major retailers, increasing chances of Samsung meeting that 35

million shipment target and converting much of those shipments into sales as well.
