Forums - Gaming - Windows Phones sell a whopping 12.375m+ units in Q4 2012?

man-bear-pig on 20 January 2013

Okay... so Nokia sold 4.4m Lumias. I'm pretty sure that HTC will have sold more than this due to their wider availability and similar advertising. Samsung is a wildcard...I have no idea how many ATIV's they will have sold. 1m possibly? Also, there are some Windows 7 phones from other manufacturers which are also included in these figures, so 12m+ seems pretty likely.



My prediction threads:

Wii U will sell under 40m units (made on 14th September 2012)

PS Vita will sell under 20m units (made on 30th September 2012)

Wii U will sell under 7m in 2013 - I was right

Halo 4 first 9 weeks sales prediction

PS4 to be down YOY in 2015

MS may not pull in Apple numbers any time soon, but they are certainly doing better then they were a year ago, which is always good.



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.

The point is, take what he says about sales with a grain of salt.

So nokia did 4.4 million, HTC will be lucky to sell 2 million and Samsung probably did around 1 million considering they were late in launching the Ativ S.

12 million is not gonna happen.

Keep in mind - This time last Year, Steve Ballmer also said that the 360 had sold more than it had shipped.


as it should be



“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”

No.  He is a CEO, I'll take what he says as mostly correct with the odd error.  Much like any other CEO.

 

If you want to. Ill continue to be wary of anything he says after saying the 360 had sold more than it had shipped.
