...Wait until a full year has passed, especially after Christmas. Judging by posts on Reddit, they may even double that number this holiday season.

And who said that Kev ? Seems to me that would be a christmas cracking idea....not. To manufacture scarcity sounds like nonsense. So they stop people grabbing them for Christmas and have loads of stock after when nobody will want them.

The expectations are high, especially after Link announcement, but there is the issue of the limited factory quota. Its clear that the statement "selling all they can build" is true, but there is some conjecture that there is a manufactured scarcity being employed.

.....I don't really buy that, not at Christmas time. Maybe during the initial release months, possibly holding back stock for the Christmas sales, but not holding back during Christmas sales. At least that's not the way I'd do business. And as I said in the rest of my comment...people aren't exactly rich these days, and if you have kids, then you probably didn't have an extra $500 before the summer holidays, or after buying school supplies before September. Most would be saving to buy their kids a Quest for Christmas. There's going to be a lot of Super Dads this year, especially the guy who bought a 128GB for each of his kids.

So, it turns out Samsung did not sell a million units of Galaxy Folds. It's closer to 400,000.
Anyway, it's completely pointless to compare VR sales with phone sales, even if it's "prototype phones". Everyone knows what a phone is, so everyone knows what to expect from it, even if it's a brand new one.
It's not the case for VR, as most people still don't know what it is actually, what it offers exactly. It's an obvious brake to the sales.
Also, mainstream really doesn't matter. It just has to do well enough to live longer.
