Samsung Galaxy S phones sell 30m

Samsung Electronics today announced that its Samsung Galaxy S and Galaxy S II smartphones have achieved a new sales record for them with a combined total of 30 million global units sold.

Galaxy S II has set a new record for Samsung, generating more than 10 million sales – quicker than any device in Samsung’s history. The device also recently received five out of the total ten Mobile Choice Consumer Awards 2011 in the UK as well as 2011 Gadget Award for being chosen as the best smartphone of the year by T3, confirming it as a run-away favourite smartphone with consumers this year. It continues to gain traction as Samsung’s flagship smartphone – a stylishly designed, slim and ultra-portable device combining an unrivalled viewing experience with powerful dual-core processor performance.

Launched in 2010, Samsung Galaxy S reached almost 20 million sales, making it the highest-selling mobile device in Samsung’s portfolio to date and another record-breaker for the company and the mobile market.

Since launching to high critical acclaim two years ago, the Galaxy S range has continued to gain popularity among consumers and propelled the Galaxy brand to one of the most recognised mobile brands in the world, with Samsung now the largest Android smartphone vendor and the second largest phone vendor overall worldwide, according to IDC.

‚Since its launch 5 months ago internationally and only 3 months locally, the Galaxy S II has seen tremendous sales success and garnered enthusiastic reviews from consumers and mobile industry watchers across the globe. This is in addition to the continued sales momentum behind Galaxy S, which we launched at Mobile World Congress 2010 and continues to be a run-away success with consumers,‚ said Paulo Ferreira, Head of Mobile Product and Business Solutions at Samsung
