Samsung GALAXY Note II sells 30 million units

Just as the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 has started to become available, a sales count of its predecessor shows that a remarkable 30 million units of the Samsung GALAXY Note II were sold. That was triple the number of sales that Samsung generated for the first generation Samsung Galaxy Note, the device that helped coin the name phablet.

The Samsung Galaxy Note 3 might even surpass the lofty sales figure put up by the Samsung GALAXY Note II. One major improvement this year is with the screen which has gone from a 5.5 inch Super AMOLED display with resolution of 720 x 1280 and a 256ppi pixel density to being a 5.7 inch Super AMOLED panel with resolution of 1080 x 1920. Thanks to the FHD resolution, the pixel density on the latest model is an outstanding 386ppi pixel density.

Unlike the Samsung GALAXY Note II, the new device has some tough competition from the 6.4 inch Sony Xperia Z Ultra and unannounced but highly expected models like the HTC One MAX and the Windows Phone powered Nokia Lumia 1520.
