Sony Xperia A doubles Samsung Galaxy S4 in head-to-head Japan sales | PCWorld: "Sales of Sony’s Xperia A smartphone have doubled those of the Samsung Galaxy S4 at Japan’s main carrier, after a nationwide sales campaign that exclusively promoted the two handsets side-by-side.
NTT DoCoMo, Japan’s largest mobile operator by contracts, said it sold 640,000 units of the Sony handset since its launch on May 17, while selling 320,000 of the Galaxy S4 since it went on sale a week later on May 23. Both phones are currently offered exclusively by DoCoMo in Japan, so the numbers provide a rare glimpse of their respective popularity, although their launch date and price to customers was slightly different.
“One reason for the difference could be that after various campaign discounts, the up-front cost to new customers for the Xperia was ¥10,000 (US$105) less,” said DoCoMo spokesman Yoshifumi Kuroda."
