The Galaxy S6 is looking to be Samsung’s most successful smartphone

While not as impressive as Apple breaking world records with the launch of the iPhone 6, Samsung is still breaking personal records with the Galaxy S6. The company’s newest flagship is shaping up to be its most successful smartphone to date, and is already close to selling ten million units. Not a single Galaxy model smartphone has achieved this level of success, and the timing couldn’t be better for Samsung. 

Samsung will soon sell 10 million Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 edge units, a new report from The Korea Times reveals. Even though Samsung is nowhere near beating Apple’s iPhone 6 launch sales record, the company will hit the milestone in early May, less than a month after they were released on April 10th. To date, no other Galaxy S model has enjoyed such popularity with consumers, and both Galaxy S6 models are selling better than their predecessors. Samsung has not commented on actual sales numbers so far, but it has said that sales are gaining momentum. The company did say right after announcing the handsets in early March hat it sold 20 million units to retailers. “The two new phones are drawing impressive responses. Samsung aims to ship 10 million S6s and S6 Edges in 26 days after the devices’ global launch. That target is achievable,” a source told the publication.
