Samsung announced, it has sold over one hundred million Samsung Galaxy S series smartphones. We now also know why the Samsung Galaxy S III release dates were delayed.
In a period of two years and seven months after its launch in May 2010 the mass total equaled over 100 million of Samsung Galaxy S devices.
For the Samsung Galaxy S III had the fastest sales rate of 30 million in 5 months and 40 million in 7 months. Currently the average is 190,000 units daily. The driving force behind the sales numbers is the Samsung Galaxy S II with over 4o million in sales in 20 months.
Samsung also pointed out via its website that ore than hundred thousand numbers of Galaxy S III Pebble Blue covers were discarded due to a manufacturing defect. The reason for the delay of release was that the Pebble Blue, the S III’s fundamental design concept had not been perfectly reproduced on the battery cover creating an esthetic that was inconsistent with the planned product. There were hairline and they lacked "luster."
Engineering teams had to create a new recipe that was a “Nano-Ceramic Coating Technique" that was used in the white model. Samsung will continue posting all the details later of how they went from being blue over the problems to the stepping-stones to creating superior Pebble Blue case for the Samsung Galaxy S III.
The Samsung Galaxy S III was named the best smartphone of 2012 by various sources.

I knew something had to have gone wrong somewhere. That's why carriers don't set their release dates in stone, any more.
