The Samsung Galaxy S9 shipped nine million units in Q2, one million less than in Q1.
This is the first time in the history of the Galaxy S line that Q2 shipments are lower than Q1.
These numbers represent further evidence that the Galaxy S line is in trouble.
Korean news site The Bell published some shipment numbers related to the Samsung Galaxy S9 and Galaxy S9 Plus. According to the report, the second quarter shipment numbers for the Galaxy S9 are lower than the previous quarter.
That has never happened before in the history of the Galaxy S line, which is going on eight years now.
Specifically, Samsung shipped around ten million Galaxy S9s in Q1 of 2018 and then only nine million units in Q2. Historically, Samsung ships more units of Galaxy S devices in the second quarter than the first, which makes sense because Galaxy S phones don’t even launch until the end of the first quarter
