One million Samsung Galaxy Note shipped

Samsung Galaxy Note is a smartphone with one of the largest display we have seen. With a large 5.3 inch touch screen and a 1280 x 800 pixel resolution a new category of smartphones was born. The Galaxy Note is something between a smartphone and a tablet. The Galaxy Note is running on Android 2.3 Gingerbread and it has a stylus included which makes it easy to write handwritten notes and sketches.

Samsung today announced that the company has shipped over one million units of the device. Not bad at all for a smartphone too large to fit in a normal pocket. The Galaxy Note was announced in September and was available in stores in November. As a comparison, one of Samsung's most popular smartphones, the Galaxy S II has sold in more than 30 million units. Galaxy Note sales are on the rise in Europe and Asia and the sales figures are expected to increase noticeably in 2012 when the Galaxy Note becomes available in the US.
