The Korean firm, which is battling with Apple’s iPhone and iPad for supremacy in the lucrative smartphone and tablet market, has seen heavy demand for its new Galaxy S III phone, which was introduced in Europe in May.
“It appears that it (accumulated sales) has exceeded 10 million units,” said J.K. Shin, head of the Samsung’s mobile communications division, according to Yonhap news agency.
Shin said last month he expected the global sales of the new phone — available in more than 140 countries — would surpass 10 million by the end of July, including sales of about a million units at home.
Samsung describes that Galaxy S3 smartphone as “Designed for humans”. Samsung Galaxy S3 just gets you. The Galaxy S3 sports impressive software and hardware. The display include: HD sAMOLED, 16M pixel, 4.8″ in size and 720 x 1280 (HD) resolution.
The software include:
