Samsung Galaxy S II Sales Pass 5 Million in South Korea
Samsung is touting a new milestone for sales of their Galaxy S II smartphone. The Android-powered handset continues to be a huge hit among the local contingent as sales have surpassed 5 million units in South Korea. Total time to reach the milestone? Nine months. As TechCrunch points out, the figure equates to just over 10 percent of the country’s population of 48 million owning a Galaxy S II. Japanese business paper The Nikkei reports that one in four South Korean smartphone users owns Samsung’s flagship handset. Overall, Samsung held a 53 percent share of the South Korean smartphone market in 2011.
