When it comes to the most popular Android smartphones on the market,
Samsung traditionally has held that honor. Samsung has announced that it
has sold more than 20 million Galaxy S III smartphones in the device's
first 100 days of availability.
The S3 launched at the end of May and according to Samsung the device
has sold at rate of about 200,000 units per day. The S3 reached the 20
million sold mark about three times faster than its predecessor the S2,
and about six times faster than the original Galaxy S. Samsung offered
details breaking down the 20 million number by country.
According to the manufacturer 6 million of the sales came in Europe,
4.5 million units were sold in Asia, 4 million units were sold in North
America, and 2.5 million were sold in Korea. While sales of the S3
reached the 20 million mark quicker than the two previous S devices, the
S3 still has a way to go to match raw sales numbers for its
predecessors.
So far, the S2 has sold 28 million units, and the original S has sold 24 million units as of this June.
A Samsung spokesperson said, "Galaxy S III is for non-technical people
to evolve and in smart phones the global smartphone market. [Samsung] is
making a few changes to the [smartphone] and will try our best to
provide a special experience for consumers to differentiate continuous
innovation through the creation of products in the future."
