Samsung ships 150k Galaxy S4 LTE-A units in Korea

Samsung released its Galaxy S4 LTE-A in Korea a couple of weeks ago and the company has already managed to ship 150,000 units of its latest smartphone in its homeland. That might not be a particularly impressive number compared to the over 20 million units sold by the original Galaxy S4, but when you consider that it's a single market and just two weeks of availability the figure is certainly decent.

The Samsung Galaxy S4 LTE-A comes with the powerful Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 SoC rather than the Snapdragon 600 that powers the international version, but is otherwise identical to its predecessor. The international variant comes with a 5-inch 1080p Super AMOLED display, 2 GB of RAM, 13 megapixel rear camera, 32 GB in-built memory, microSD card slot and IR port.

The fact that Samsung Galaxy S4 LTE-A is able to make use of the SK Telecom's new super-fast network speeds and equally well supported by the Samsung's strong marketing campaign has certainly helped push those sales numbers so high.
