Record shipments for the new Galaxy S smartphones expected, Samsung Electronics said.
The new S6 models are expected to sell briskly following a string of positive reviews, boosting hopes for an earnings recovery in 2015 after the company estimated its January-March operating profit reached the highest level in three quarters.
But the head of Samsung's mobile business, J.K. Shin, told reporters there would be supply constraints in the near future for the curve-screened S6 edge model, although the company was working hard to improve production yields.
