Galaxy S21 sales cross a million units in South Korea

Samsung has mentioned that the sales of the Galaxy S21 series crossed 1 million units in South Korea last week. This sales milestone was achieved in just 57 days since the launch of the smartphones.

The South Korean smartphone giant usually launches its Galaxy S series flagship phones in February, but this year, it launched the phones in January. The entry-level variant of the Galaxy S21 was priced at just KRW 999,990 (around $990) in South Korea. In comparison, the Galaxy S20 had a starting price of KRW 1,240,000 (around $1,099).

Samsung said that the sales of the vanilla Galaxy S21 accounted for 52% of all Galaxy S21 sales in its home country. The Galaxy S21 Ultra and the Galaxy S21+ accounted for 27% and 21% of all sales of the Galaxy S21 series in South Korea. Unlocked variants of the Galaxy S21 series accounted for 20% of sales in South Korea, whereas 60 percent of units were sold via online channels.
