Samsung Reveal IPhone-Topping Sales Figures For Soul U900

Wed, 25 Jun 2008

Samsung have announced sales of its flagship phone – the Samsung Soul U900 – have passed the one million-mark within the first month of its release.

The Korean company said the first-month figures beat those for the much-hyped Apple iPhone .

In the UK, Samsung managed to ship 80,000 units of the U900 in the first two weeks alone, while over 150,000 units were sold to consumers in Germany, thanks largely to Samsung’s marketing campaign with German football star Michael Ballack.

Although the flagship handset is currently only available in Europe, Samsung said it hopes to further drive sales by launching it in China, Russia and other Asian markets in the next few months.

The Samsung Soul is a stylish slider that boasts HSDPA support and a haptic-feedback display for navigation instead of real keys.

A pink version of the Soul was launched in the UK last week exclusively to customers at high street retailer Phones4U.
