Samsung ships over 5 million Galaxy S II units

27 July, 2011

The popular Galaxy S II smartphone has reached yet another landmark. Samsung has now shipped over 5 million Galaxy S II smartphones and although the number of shipped devices is not quite the same as the number of devices actually sold, in the case of the Galaxy S II we are inclined to believe the difference won’t be much due to its popularity.

According to Samsung, the 5 million milestone was crossed in a mere 85 days since the launch of the phone and it is now poised to cross 10 million soon. Most of the sales come from South Korea, where Samsung has managed to get 56% of the market share and it also remains quite popular in the European countries. Now if the phone was launched in the US on time these numbers would have been even higher.

I have never seen statistics for complaints. Apple might still score high in customer satisfaction, but that actually says nothing about the amount of returned units.
