Just when the commercial life of the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 begins, the South Korean multinational has published a new commercial brand in sales for this family of large format phones. Sources from the company itself have given the data. It was the General Director of Samsung in Taiwan who, during the presentation of the Samsung Galaxy Note 3, informed that its predecessor already has many millions in the market. Specifically, no less than 30 million units of the second generation of Galaxy Note smartphones would have been distributed so far. And that's not all.
The success of this line of large-format screen phones, inaugurated two years ago within the framework of IFA 2011, extends to the founding model, since the first Samsung Galaxy Note exceeded the barrier of ten million terminals. Thus, the version that we learned about at the beginning of the month and that since yesterday is available to be acquired in our country has the support of more than 40 million units populating the telephony market.
Although the data is striking, it is not especially surprising. Although the concept proposed by the Samsung Galaxy Note was strange, the seduction it executed among users is a fact. So much so that practically every major mobile phone manufacturer has in its catalog at least one tablet phone, or phablet , as these teams have come to be called. Only Apple resists, displaying its classic reluctance. At the moment, the Finnish Nokia has not shown its proposal, although everyone knows that it will debut in this segment with the Nokia Lumia 1520, a team that in addition to inaugurating the range of telephones with large-format screens in the ecosystemWindows Phone in general and in the catalog of the European company in particular, will be the epitaph of the firm as a manufacturer, after Microsoft acquired the terminal division for some 5,000 million dollars.
Returning to the Samsung Galaxy Note 2, the news of the 30 million devices sent to distributors is an incentive for the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 to follow the path of success. However, this device goes on sale just at the time when manufacturers have raised the price bar for their most powerful terminals. In the case of the terminal in question, we are talking about a cost for the user of 750 euros in free format for the basic model (equipped with 16 GB of internal memory).
A series of grants and promotions have been presented with which to make the purchase of the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 more bearable, although for the moment the clearest way to get hold of the terminal is the direct purchase or access it through financing and subsidies proposed by operators who have already included it in their catalogs. We will see next year if this very powerful device manages to break the record of the Samsung Galaxy Note 2.
