Almost as a strange form of celebration, Samsung rolls out their "Sweet Pink/Sweet Metallic Rose" colored Galaxy S5 as they announce that the Galaxy S5 was the fastest rollout ever for a smartphone. To be clear, they aren't just claiming it was their fastest rollout ever for a smartphone. Samsung claims it was, the fastest rollout ever.
Here's a quote with a few more details,
Concluding the rollout that started on April 11 is the version of the Galaxy S5 pictured above. Dubbed “Sweet Pink” or “Sweet Metallic Rose”, this version of the flagship is headed to Japan’s NTT DoCoMo. Not to be mistaken with the “Warm Shiny Gold” version offered by rival carrier KDDI, “Sweet Pink” will be exclusive to DoCoMo, and Samsung did not specify whether other markets would eventually get it.
Getting back to the record, Samsung claims that the 35 days rollout of the Galaxy S5 (completing tomorrow, May 15) is the fastest rollout ever for any single smartphone model. Counting Japan, the number of countries where the Galaxy S5 is available is now 150.
Of course, it's hard to track something like this, so we should remain a bit skeptical of their supposed accomplishment. Conversely, if any smartphone maker could do it, it is probably Samsung.
