Sony sells over a million PlayStation 4s per month
Sony has sold more than a million PS4s per month in recent months. This is evident from the quarterly figures of the electronics maker. Thanks to the PS4, the number of consoles sold by Sony doubled compared to the same period last year.
Of the 4.1 million consoles Sony sold in the summer months, 3.3 million were a PS4. That’s 1.1 million latest generation PlayStations per month. That made it the most successful months in terms of PS4 sales since its release in the last months of last year, when Sony sold 4.5 million PS4s, according to the report. quarterly results.
Sony seems to have almost stopped the decline in sales of Xperia smartphones. That decrease is only 1 percent compared to the same period last year. Sony shipped 9.9 million Xperia smartphones, up from 10 million in the same period a year ago. In the previous times Sony presented quarterly figures, the decline in deliveries was much higher.
However, that doesn’t mean things are going well. Sony makes a loss with its smartphone branch and therefore writes off almost 1.3 billion euros on the mobile division. Sony as a whole therefore suffered a loss of almost a billion euros, with a turnover of almost 14 billion euros.
