Samsung Galaxy S II was launched in April. In July, Samsung announced it sold 5 million units. Reaching the 10 million milestone in such a short time span is quite an achievement, given the device only became available in the U.S. a couple of weeks ago.

However, one must take into account that Samsung is talking about channel sales, which is a bit different from end user sales. Still, hitting 10 million in only five months is a noteworthy achievement for any smartphone — except one, and that one starts with an “i“.

The specifications for the device differ slightly in the U.S., depending on the carrier, but it’s a very powerful smartphone regardless of the variety, with a dual-core 1.2 GHz Exynos CPU, Android 2.3 Gingerbread, 1 GB of RAM, an 8-megapixel camera and 16 GB of storage.
