Samsung Tipped To Sell 1 Million Galaxy Mega 5.8 Devices Monthly

Consumer electronics giant Samsung has just announced that they have every intention of moving approximately 1 million Galaxy Mega 5.8 devices each month, and this is because it is due to the continued sales of the Galaxy Grand. Just as a matter of reminder, Samsung does not make use of AMOLED panels in their mid-range smartphones, preferring instead to rely on LCD or PLS, which they do not manufacture and hence will have to source it from a different company.

According to Digitimes, Samsung has already placed an order of 1 million a month LCD panels to Chunghwa Picture Tubes (CPT) and Giantplus Technology, which are the two contractors who will be supplying LCD panels for use in the Galaxy Mega 5.8. What do you think of this strategy – is it going to benefit Samsung in the long run, and do you think that moving a million units of the Galaxy Mega 5.8 monthly is a, er, for the lack of a better word, “mega-sized” target? I guess only the passage of time will be able to tell…
