The Galaxy S sold 10 millions units in 6 months. The Galaxy S II, largely heralded as the best phone ever made, hit 10 millions sales worldwide in 5 months (http://www.wired.com/gadgetlab/2011/09/galaxy-s-ii-10-million-sales/ http://www.wired.com/gadgetlab/2011/09/galaxy-s-ii-10-millio...). Apple being 40% of the way there 3 days after public release is impressive.
Anyone care to throw some more Android or other device numbers into the mix? Blackberry numbers might be a fun comparison to see, for instance.
- chugger 15y agoCorrection: The iPhone 4 was the best phone ever made. Now its the 4S. :)
- vikaveri 15y agoYou clearly haven't tried GS2
- Steko 15y ago"The Galaxy S II, largely heralded as the best phone ever made" The best Android phone but nowhere near consensus as best phone. The iphone 4 probably sold 10 million just in this past quarter, it's 5th on the market.
- w33ble 15y agoI wouldn't disagree, not being a fan of Android myself. Just repeating what I've seen on Engadget, but I also found another site that said it too: "It's the best Android smartphone yet, but more importantly, it might well be the best smartphone, period." http://www.engadget.com/2011/04/28/samsung-galaxy-s-ii-review/ http://www.engadget.com/2011/04/28/samsung-galaxy-s-ii-revie... "Samsung Galaxy S2 (or S II) is arguably the best smartphone currently in the market." http://www.androidauthority.com/top-5-android-smartphones-challenging-the-samsung-galaxy-s2-24752/ http://www.androidauthority.com/top-5-android-smartphones-ch... Maybe "heralded by some" would have been a better choice of words. The point was that people seem to love that phone, and the 4S, which some have called a disappointment, has already reached 40% of the Galaxy S II's sales numbers within just days of being released.
