US network Sprint has revised its calculations for launch-day sales of the HTC EVO 4G, described as America's first 4G phone.
It's still a record-breaker for the company; EVO sales were six times greater than launch day sales of the Samsung Instinct and nearly twice the launch day sales for the Palm Pre – both previous top-sellers. However, having originally reported that the total number of HTC EVO 4G devices sold on launch day was three times the number of Samsung Instinct and Palm Pre devices sold over their first three days on the market combined, Sprint has admitted a mistake in that comparison. It now says the total number of HTC EVO 4G devices sold on launch day was in line with the number of Samsung Instinct and Palm Pre devices sold over their first three days on the market combined.
