Samsung achieves its goal of 10 million Galaxy S phones sold

Not that anybody doubted it, but Samsung has achieved its mid-2010 resolution to sell 10 million Samsung Galaxy S phones by the end of last year. Four million have come thanks to the North American market, 2.5 million in Europe and 2 million have been sold in South Korea. When you add the rest of the world, Sammy is patting itself on the back with more than 10 million units delivered to avid Android users.

Thanks to Android's proliferation, and Samsung's innovative technologies, such as the Super AMOLED display, and Hummingbird chipset, the company might just be on the way to reach its more ambitious goal now - to become the top cell phone manufacturer by 2014, replacing Nokia. Of course, a bunch of feature phones will have to be churned out for that one to become reality, but Samsung has that base covered with its own bada OS as well, which the company aims to put in every phone of its making that is not WP7 or Android.
