Samsung says 2 million Galaxy Notes sold so far, Projecting another 10 million for 2012

What can you say about the Samsung Galaxy Note other than it’s big? Well it’s certainly the biggest (no pun intended) head-turner for sure, and although a lot of people seem to think it’s too big, it appears there are a lot who don’t. Samsung told us back in December that they sold 1 million Galaxy Notes. Now they are telling us that they’ve reached the 2 million milestone. Not bad at all when you consider that it just became available in the U.S. and Canada. It’s now available worldwide so its sales should grow exponentially. In fact Samsung is predicting another 10 million units for 2012.
Some people are calling them phablets and some are just simply calling them big phones, but whatever you want to call it, you can’t deny that they are here to stay. LG already announced the Optimus Vu, but unfortunately the 4:3 design could hinder its success. Will we see Motorola and HTC jump on board? It’s only a matter of time till they and other manufacturers realize they want to get in on the action.
The Galaxy Note is truly an amazing phone and I really think it’s ahead of it’s time. I am predicting that in 2013 we will see similar models from all major manufacturers. Who knows, maybe we will even see a Nexus Note. If you want to read more about the Galaxy Note, make sure to check out  my full review and quick hands on with some of the popular S Pen apps.
