More than 20 million units of the Samsung Galaxy S III have been sold in 100 days

The Samsung Galaxy S III has sold 20 million units

The Samsung Galaxy S III has certainly proven itself worthy to the title as the Samsung's flagship model. The Korean based tech titan announced on Thursday that the device has sold in excess of 20 million units in just 100 days. That is three times faster than the Samsung Galaxy S II, which was no slouch itself, and 6 times faster than the Samsung Galaxy S.

Samsung has broken down the sales by region with 6 million rung up in Europe, 4.5 million sold in Asia, 4 million in North America and 2.5 million in Korea. Samsung says that 200,000 units a day are being sold. And the amazing thing is that Samsung has some other hot selling devices right on the heels of the Galaxy S III. For example, the Samsung GALAXY Note has surpassed 10 million units in sales with the slightly larger sequel already introduced and ready to be launched. Sounds like some company has the Midas Touch right now!

Thanks, Sean!
