Samsung Galaxy S2 Hits 20 Million Mark

The Samsung Galaxy S2 has now sold over 20 million units according to Samsung themselves.

These sales figures are the direct sales to mobile operators, which doesn't necessarily mean they've all been sold onto consumers, but as far as Samsung is concerned they are completed sales.

Achieving worldwide sales of 20 million since the launch in April is mighty impressive and makes the Galaxy S2 the nearest rival to the iPhone 4. However, with the iPhone 4S now available Samsung will have to raise their game in order to keep up.

The success of the Galaxy S2 is well deserved because it has won numerous awards including being awarded "Phone of the Year" by T3. Our review of the Galaxy S2 awarded it 5 stars and concluded that it's "The best Android handset yet, the Samsung Galaxy S II excels in all areas".
