14 DAY TRIAL // Today, South Korean mobile phone maker Samsung Electronics has officially confirmed that it has managed to sell over 10 million Galaxy Note smartphones in its homeland market.
The company is selling all three versions of the handset in the country, including the original Galaxy Note, which was launched in 2011, the Galaxy Note II that arrived on shelves in 2012, and last year’s Galaxy Note 3.
All three smartphones pack large touchscreens and powerful hardware inside, and they have already managed to prove highly popular devices all around the world.
We should also note that, following the release of the first Galaxy Note handset, other makers out there also adopted the large design for their devices.
In fact, Samsung notes that its Galaxy Note smartphone needed 9 months to reach the 10 million sold units mark worldwide, while the Galax Note II achieved this milestone in only 4 months.
The Galaxy Note 3 that was made official at the IFA 2013 show in Berlin, however, managed to reach the 10-million mark in only two months.
This shows that the company’s handsets are becoming increasingly popular, which is also confirmed by the fact that Samsung currently has the largest smartphone market share out there.
To celebrate the aforementioned milestone, the handset maker also announced that it would hold a special promotion for its users in South Korea. People interested in the matter should head over to Galaxynote-10million.co.kr to learn more on it.
This year, Samsung is expected to make official two devices in the popular series, including a Galaxy Note 3 Lite, which has been rumored recently to be released as the cheaper version of the Galaxy Note 3.
Later this year, the vendor should announce the availability of the next high-end Galaxy Note handset, which will supposedly sport the name of Galaxy Note 4. Unfortunately, no official confirmation on any of the two has been provided as of now.
