To nobody’s surprise, the Samsung Galaxy S5 has sold like hotcakes since it’s launch and shows no signs of abating anytime soon. However, while we expect sales figures of the Galaxy S5 to vary region to region, we never expected to hear that the LG G3 is outselling the Samsung Galaxy S5 in Korea. LG‘s flagship device is one of the first with a Quad HD display, so it’s not really a surprise to hear the large interest for the device. What is a surprise is that the LG G3 is selling between 25,000-30,000 units per day compared to the Galaxy S5’s daily sales which are somewhere closer to 7,000-8,000 units per day.
While this isn’t immediately indicative of the total number of devices sold for either smartphone, it’s nonetheless astonishing that the LG G3 is outselling the Galaxy S5 on some level. This is thanks in large part to LG’s strategy to launch flagship devices biannually to try and capitalize on technological advances during the year, and it looks like it has paid off. The 5.5-inch Quad HD smartphone is sitting pretty at the top of the Android food chain right now, but we’ll just have to see for how long.
