Samsung has announced that they have reached the 10 million sold milestone for the Samsung Galaxy S II. It took them four or five months, but they can consider it a hit (for their standards, anyway).
“In just five months the GALAXY S II has seen tremendous growth, reflecting its tremendous popularity with customers around the world, who in selecting the GALAXY S II as their device of choice have driven the device’s strong market position globally,” said JK Shin, head of Samsung Mobile.

“Samsung has announced that they have reached the 10 million sold milestone for the Samsung Galaxy S II. It took them four or five months, but they can consider it a hit (for their standards, anyway).”
