There have been several superb mobile phones released over the past year but none have managed to eclipse the global success that has been achieved by the Samsung Galaxy S2. This high specification model has proved a hit across the globe thanks to a blend of cutting edge technology together with a slim and stylish look.
Since its release in April 2011 the Galaxy S2 has helped its predecessor the Galaxy S to achieve 30 million sales between them. In September it was announced that the S2 had already reached the 10 million mark and since that report the phone has been released in the US with plenty of media publicity. Main US networks AT&T, Sprint and T Mobile all offered packages on the phone and this has resulted in a further boost in sales figures for this popular model. Despite the popularity of the S2 the original Galaxy S is still selling well as a lower priced alternative. "Since its launch only five months ago, GALAXY S2 has seen tremendous sales success and garnered enthusiastic reviews from consumers and mobile industry watchers across the globe," said JK Shin, president of Samsung mobile communications. "This is in addition to the continued sales momentum behind GALAXY S, which we launched at Mobile World Congress 2010 as continues to be a run-away success with consumers.". And it seems the popularity of the Galaxy name is set to continue with the release of two new handsets in the range.
The Samsung Galaxy S2 will continue to run as the brands mains smartphone but it is joined by new arrivals in the shape of the Galaxy Note and the Galaxy R. The Galaxy Note is a larger screened version of the S2 that will strike a chord with multi media lovers but not replace the model as a mainstream hit thanks to its massive size. Boasting a 5.3 inch display the phone is almost a hybrid between a phone and a tablet device which offers massive advantage in areas such as video playback and gaming but lacks the portability of other models in the range. A powerful 1.4 Ghz processor ensures the model performs at lightning fast speeds and an 8 million pixel camera means the device will appeal to camera enthusiasts. The Samsung Galaxy R will sit slightly lower than the Galaxy S2 in the range a prove a great option for anybody looking for the smartphone experience at a more budget price. The phone features a 1Ghz processor together with a high quality 4.2 inch display. Media wise the phone offers a 5 million pixel main camera and a 2 mega pixel front facing camera perfect for self portraits and video calling.
It is easy to see why the Samsung Galaxy S2 has been such a runaway success. The addition of the two new models to the range will further cement the Galaxy's position as the ultimate smartphone family.
