Samsung has announced sales of over two million Galaxy Note ‘phablets,’ according to Forbes. The cross-over device, which straddles the line between a smartphone and a tablet, has notched up the sales since its October launch showing surprising demand for it. While Samsung recently admitted that it was struggling to move significant numbers of its Galaxy tablets, it has had no trouble shifting Android devices in the smartphone class selling over 20 million Galaxy S IIs.
While not expecting to reach Galaxy S II sales levels with the Note, Samsung says that it is on track to reach sales of 10 million Galaxy Notes by the end of the year. When asked by Forbes if the Galaxy Note is some people really need, Samsung’s Hankil Yoon said that, ‘I think people don’t know that they need.’ ‘But as soon as they start using it, they think that’s what they need. I’m not going back to other devices now,’ he added.
