Samsung Galaxy S II sells like hotcakes; 3 million sold in 55 days
Share:
As amazing as that sounds, we have to take into consideration that the device is not yet available in the U.S. where cell phone fanatics are eagerly awaiting the launch of the phone. As we reported, the device is expected to be available on 3 of the nation's top 4 carriers as the Samsung Function (Verizon), Attain (AT&T) and Within (Sprint).
While American citizens wait for the Samsung Galaxy S II, the demand for the phone grows sharply as the handset reaches almost mythical proportions in the States. And while that might have been Samsung's game plan all along, the unit obviously has done quite well overseas. Well played, Samsung. The goal Samsung set for itself to sell 10 million units this year certainly seems like it will be eclipsed very easily, especially if the U.S. launch happens as expected.

The thing is it is going to.... if they started out with a worldwide release including the US, the s2 would of dominated way more as far as sales go. They didn't need test markets for this

i would assume its more of a supply constraint with exynos processors than "test markets" Gotta remember, a large chunk of their maufacturing capacity goes to apple atm.

I honestly LOVED the Samsung swype, and the ui was the best I saw (IMO), but I don't like keyboards, so I got the evo. Now this has everything in a phone that I love. And now I can run games and my livewallpapers without a hassel!! Not to mention AMOLED. ;)

It wud be funny once it comes to the US it don't sell a lot cuz people got tired of waiting for it and moved on to a different phone I wonder what would Samsung think? If that happened I know it probably wont but still imagine it did? Also if I does come to the US I hope it at least runs supports Lte connectivity because I live in an verizon Lte area that's also supposed to be one of the first areas to get at&t Lte whenever that happens LOL I'm probably gonna be 100 and at&t won't have Lte yet.. but still it would be nice if this phone worked on verizons Lte and the at&t version had support for atts upcoming Lte network cuz u never know when att might surprise us and turn on Lte soon.
