Now, when the smartphone industry was finally getting back on track, something unfortunate has struck. The coronavirus is believed to be causing disruptions to both the supply chain and the shopper activity and as a result, sales are likely to be going to be lesser than previously expected. The epidemic now affects all continents except Antarctica and has even reached Samsung’s home country of South Korea. Local media believes this is one of the reasons why Galaxy S20 sales received less attention than its predecessor.

According to estimates, Galaxy S20 sales were 50 percent lower than that of its predecessor on their first day. Samsung apparently sold 70,800 units on Thursday, which pales in comparison to the first day sales of the Galaxy S10 series and Galaxy Note 10 range, which attracted shipments of 140,000 and 220,000 respectively. The relatively poor performance of the new phones has been chalked down in part due to coronavirus, signaling that sales might pick up once the situation normalizes.
