This phablet which was only released last month is sustaining a very strong momentum as it records 10,000-20,000 units sales per day in South Korea which makes it the most popular smartphone in the market. The performance of this device is not entirely surprising because it has a very loyal fanbase and the phone is quite amazing too. Over the second week of October, the 64GB Galaxy Note 8 offered by SK Telecom recorded the highest number of sales according to the latest data from ATLAS Research & Consulting.

Within October, Galaxy Note 8 sales represent a whopping 28.3% of all smartphone sales in South Korea and this figure will probably go higher when the 256GB model drops. The Galaxy Note 8 is performing just like the Galaxy S8 which is currently Samsung’s pride.
