Phablet Status Report: 77% of North American Usage from Samsung Users

Google never released its number officially, but analysts estimated from 3 to 5 million had been sold which also based partially from web traffic. I don't think Note 4 would have been sold for 5 million in less than a month.



Exactly!

so you don't have sources?

No, just common sense!

Samsung owns 3/4 of the market and every model is leading by a significant amount.

So the iPhone 6 plus is outselling the note 4 in the Us, interesting.

Reminder to those trying to find a direct relationship between Chitika ad views and sales:

• This is not about sales quantity.
• This is not about how much a phone is used (someone who uses lots of apps would not see the ads).
• This is not even about how much a phone surfs the web, since most sites do not use Chitika, plus browser reloads will skew the results.

It is only about the relative number of Chitika ad views. This is Chitika marketing itself.

This doesn't end any argument. You mean how the s5 has lost 40% sales?

The GS5 sold 20% fewer units in the first three months than the GS4 did.

The extra rumored missing 20% was supposed over-production that a reporter claims to have heard from a "person familiar with the matter." (Since he didn't say "insider", the person was probably some analyst.) Another click bait article, like most these days.

Sales always slow down when the market is mature and people are happy with their older model. Heck, look at the drop in iPad sales. The same is happening with high end smartphones.

I'm actually excited by these slowdowns for Samsung and Apple. It means that it'll take extra innovations to draw more sales in the future. That'll likely mean foldable phones from Samsung (which they've announced should be out in 2015) and perhaps a UI better related to tablets from Apple et al.

Common sense says…..when you make claims….to at least have a source to back up the claim.

Note 4 is the newest one on the list having only been out for about a month with 10/17/2014 release date.

And actually, that was only a partial release as Verizon didn't release theirs until 10/23

Would you quit posting real life facts!? The iPhonebregade only want their reality distortion field!

No, no, NO! You are going in too hard with the real life facts, now we are going to get some twisted response from the iPhonebregade, they are either going to try change the subject or try desperately twist what you have said.

Just sitback and laugh at the idiots who interpreted Chitika web traffic data as sales.

I understand it's not about sales. I'm not convinced the smartphone market is mature. Samsung faces pressure from lower end devices within android as well as its flagship segments within android and apple. The iPhone is still growing and the 6plus will likely steadily increase as supply increases. I'm sure the note 4 will sell relatively well but I gotta believe the 6 plus will start affecting those sales as well. The tablet market is a different market than smartphone, which I agree eventually tablets will need some kind of change.

If you read really slow and try to understand the postings, you will see that there are also are others than the "iphonebrIgade" interpreting it that way. Who's the idiot again?
