Despite having launched with some delays in North America, the Samsung Galaxy S III is in stock across most carriers selling the device today. Back in June, Samsung announced the Galaxy S III would reach 10 million sales by July and today a Samsung exec confirmed its previous proclamation.

According to a report from Yonhap News, Shin Jong-kyun announced the Galaxy S III sold more than 10 million times since its launch on May 29. To put this feat in some perspective, the Galaxy S II took five months to reach the 10 million sales plateau, while the Galaxy S III accomplished it in less than two months. Moreover, the Galaxy S III running Android 4.0 is poised to sell over 40 million times by the time 2012 is over.

The Samsung Galaxy S III runs on high-end hardware and will receive a boost in software when the Jelly Bean update is available. Showing no signs of slowing down, the Galaxy S III will continue to be a hot seller going into the fall season.

Could this be the end of the iPhone’s reign? I’d like to think so!

  I hope the iPhone dies miserably. Closed source is evil and too controlling over peoples lives. It’s time for people to take back control of the software we use and use it the way we desire without restrictions.

With a phone looking this good, it’s no surprise that the Galaxy SIII is selling so well. Many companies have a hard time selling a million of anything! I bought my Galaxy SIII a few days ago, and I can see why so many have been sold. Out of all the features on the phone, my favorite is that the phone can use LTE. I like streaming, so my Dish coworkers suggested that I look for a phone with LTE, and I bought the GSIII. After downloading the Dish Remote Access app on my phone, I was streaming live and recorded shows to my phone through the Sling Adapter I have connected to my receiver at home in no time. If this is how good Samsung products are now, I’m looking forward to seeing what they come up with in the future.

Have you ever considered about including a little bit more than just your articles? I mean, what you say is important and everything. But imagine if you added some great images or videos to give your posts more, “pop”! Your content is excellent but with images and video clips, this blog could certainly be one of the greatest in its niche. Wonderful blog!
