The Samsung Galaxy Note with its unconventional 5.3 inch screen seems to be pretty popular on the European and Asian markets. Within two months there are more than 1 million copies sold. The device sells very well in France, Germany and Taiwan according to Samsung. The device will be launched in the United States at the beginning of 2012.
The Galaxy Note should be the bridge between the smartphone and a tablet according to Samsung. With this device they try to tap a new market, where the user can use one unit for both purposes instead of two different devices. Samsung has announced to be satisfied with the sales numbers and expects another raise in sales during 2012. Partly because of the launch in the United States.
In certain reviews consumers saw the benefits of the lager 5.3 inch screen. Viewing e-mails and websites has never been that clear. The downside is the fact you have to compromise on mobility.
